The firmware in several ZTE devices (at least the MF823/831/910
modems/mifis) use OS fingerprinting to determine which type of device to
export. In addition, these devices export a REST API which can be used to
control the type of device. So far, on Linux, the devices have been seen as
RNDIS or CDC Ether.
When CDC Ether is used, devices of the same type are, as with RNDIS,
exported with the same, bogus random MAC address. In addition, the devices
(at least on all firmware revisions I have found) use the bogus MAC when
sending traffic routed from external networks. And as a final feature, the
devices sometimes export the link state incorrectly. There are also
references online to several other ZTE devices displaying this behavior,
with several different PIDs and MAC addresses.
This patch tries to improve the handling of ZTE devices by doing the
following:
* Create a new driver_info-struct that is used by ZTE devices that do not
have an explicit entry in the product table. This struct is the same as the
default cdc_ether driver info, but a new bind- and an rx_fixup-function
have been added.
* In the new bind function, we check if we have read a random MAC from the
device. If we have, then we generate a new random MAC address. This will
ensure that all devices get a unique MAC.
* The rx_fixup-function replaces the destination MAC address in the skb
with that of the device. I have not seen a revision of these devices that
behaves correctly (i.e., sets the right destination MAC), so I chose not to
do any comparison with for example the known, bogus addresses.
* The MF823/MF832/MF910 sometimes export cdc carrier on twice on connect
(the correct behavior is off then on). Work around this by manually setting
carrier to off if an on-notification is received and the NOCARRIER-bit is
not set.
This change will affect all devices, but it should take care of similar
mistakes made by other manufacturers. I tried to think of/look/test for
problems/regressions that could be introduced by this behavior, but could
not find any. However, my familiarity with this code path is not that
great, so there could be something I have overlooked.
I have tested this patch with multiple revisions of all three devices, and
they behave as expected. In other words, they all got a valid, random MAC,
the correct operational state and I can receive/sent traffic without
problems. I also tested with some other cdc_ether devices I have and did
not find any problems/regressions caused by the two general changes.
v3->v4:
* Forgot to remove unused variables, sorry about that (thanks David
Miller).
v2->v3:
* I had forgot to remove the random MAC generation from usbnet_cdc_bind()
(thanks Oliver).
* Rework logic in the ZTE bind-function a bit.
v1->v2:
* Only generate random MAC for ZTE devices (thanks Oliver Neukum).
* Set random MAC and do RX fixup for all ZTE devices that do not have a
product-entry, as the bogus MAC have been seen on devices with several
different PIDs/MAC addresses. In other words, it seems to be the default
behavior of ZTE CDC Ether devices (thanks Lars Melin).

There are known issues for switching the drivers between ECM mode and
vendor mode. The interrup transfer may become abnormal. The hardware
may have the opportunity to die if you change the configuration without
unloading the current driver first, because all the control transfers
of the current driver would fail after the command of switching the
configuration.
Although to use the ecm driver and vendor driver independently is fine,
it may have problems to change the driver from one to the other by
switching the configuration. Additionally, now the vendor mode driver
is more powerful than the ECM driver. Thus, disable the ECM mode driver,
and let r8152 to set the configuration to vendor mode and reset the

Some Icera based Huawei modems handled by this driver are not
completely CDC ECM compliant, using the same USB interface for both
control and data. The CDC functional descriptors include a Union
naming this interface as both master and slave, so it is supportable
by relaxing the descriptor parsing in case these interfaces are
identical.

Another QMI speaking Qualcomm based device, which should be
driven by qmi_wwan, while cdc_ether should ignore it.
Like on other Huawei devices, the wwan function can appear
either as a single vendor specific interface or as a CDC ECM
class function using separate control and data interfaces.
The ECM control interface protocol is 0xff, likely in an
attempt to indicate that vendor specific management is
required.
In addition to the near standard CDC class, Huawei also add
vendor specific AT management commands to their firmwares.
This is probably an attempt to support non-Windows systems
using standard class drivers. Unfortunately, this part of
the firmware is often buggy. Linux is much better off using
whatever native vendor specific management protocol the
device offers, and Windows uses, whenever possible. This
means QMI in the case of Qualcomm based devices.
The E1820 has been verified to work fine with QMI.
Matching on interface number is necessary to distiguish the
wwan function from serial functions in the single interface
mode, as both function types will have class/subclass/function
set to ff/ff/ff.
The control interface number does not change in CDC ECM mode,
so the interface number matching rule is sufficient to handle
both modes. The cdc_ether blacklist entry is only relevant in
CDC ECM mode, but using a similar interface number based rule
helps document this as a transfer from one driver to another.
Other Huawei 02/06/ff devices are left with the cdc_ether driver
because we do not know whether they are based on Qualcomm chips.
The Huawei specific AT command management is known to be somewhat
hardware independent, and their usage of these class codes may
also be independent of the modem hardware.

Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms
devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power
state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished.
Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state,
using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their
data transfer.
If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable
hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus
as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of
receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the
hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the
middle of receiving a transmission.
The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB
communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep
the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the
same in Linux.
Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications
drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that
implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

The documentation for the USB ethernet devices suggests that
only some devices are supposed to use usb0 as the network interface
name instead of eth0. The logic used there, and documented in
Kconfig for CDC is that eth0 will be used when the mac address
is a globally assigned one, but usb0 is used for the locally
managed range that is typically used on point-to-point links.
Unfortunately, this has caused a lot of pain on the smsc95xx
device that is used on the popular pandaboard without an
EEPROM to store the MAC address, which causes the driver to
call random_ether_address().
Obviously, there should be a proper MAC addressed assigned to
the device, and discussions are ongoing about how to solve
this, but this patch at least makes sure that the default
interface naming gets a little saner and matches what the
user can expect based on the documentation, including for
new devices.
The approach taken here is to flag whether a device might be a
point-to-point link with the new FLAG_POINTTOPOINT setting in
the usbnet driver_info. A driver can set both FLAG_POINTTOPOINT
and FLAG_ETHER if it is not sure (e.g. cdc_ether), or just one
of the two. The usbnet framework only looks at the MAC address
for device naming if both flags are set, otherwise it trusts the
flag.

This adds a driver for the CDC Ethernet part of this modem. The
device's ID is blacklisted in cdc_ether.c and is white-listed in
this new driver because of the quirks needed to make it useful.
The modem's firmware exposes a CDC ACM port for modem control and a
CDC Ethernet port for network data. The descriptors look fine but
both ports actually are some sort of multiplexers requiring non-
standard headers added/removed from every packet or they get
ignored. All information is based on a usb traffic log from a
Windows machine.
On the Verizon 4G network I've seen speeds up to 1.1MB/s so far with
this driver, a speed-o-meter site reports 16.2Mbps/10.5Mbps.
Userspace scripts are required to talk to the CDC ACM port.

We already verified that "dev->udev->actconfig->extralen" was non-zero
so "len" is non-zero here as well.

This patch removes vid/pid for Ericsson MBM devices from the whitelist set of
devices. The MBM devices are instead identified by GUID.
In order for cdc_ether to handle these devices the GUID in the MDLM descriptor
is tested. All MBM devices currently handled by cdc_ether as well as future
CDC Ethernet MBM devices can be identified by the GUID.
This is the same solution used in Carl Nordbeck's mbm driver,
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2008/11/17/4141384/thread
I post this as RFC to get feedback on however cdc_ether is the correct place to
do the binding, or if it should be done in a separate driver, e.g. zaurus.

Autosuspend works until you bring the wwan interface up, then the
device does not enter autosuspend anymore.
The following patch fixes the problem by setting the .manage_power
field in the mbm_info struct to the same as in the cdc_info struct
(cdc_manager_power).
