2011-05-10net/usb: mark LG VL600 LTE modem ethernet interface as WWANDan Williams
Like other mobile broadband device ethernet interfaces, mark the LG VL600 with the 'wwan' devtype so userspace knows it needs additional configuration via the AT port before the interface can be used. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-04-02usbnet: use eth%d name for known ethernet devicesArnd Bergmann
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.

2011-03-30net/usb: Ethernet quirks for the LG-VL600 4G modemAndrzej Zaborowski
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. Signed-off-by: Andrzej Zaborowski <balrogg@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-04-30cdc_ether: Identify MBM devices by GUID in MDLM descriptorJonas Sjöquist
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.

These macros are too similar to the dev_<level> equivalents but take a usbnet * argument. Convert them to the recently introduced netdev_<level> macros and remove the old macros. The old macros had "\n" appended to the format string. Add the "\n" to the converted uses. Some existing uses of the dev<foo> macros in cdc_eem.c probably mistakenly had trailing "\n".

2010-01-29cdc_ether: Partially revert "usbnet: Set link down initially ..."Ben Hutchings
Commit 37e8273cd30592d3a82bcb70cbb1bdc4eaeb6b71 ("usbnet: Set link down initially for drivers that update link state") changed the initial link state in cdc_ether and other drivers based on the understanding that the devices they support generate link change interrupts. However, this is optional in the CDC Ethernet protocol, and two users have reported in <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14791> that the link state for their devices remains down. Therefore, revert the change in cdc_ether. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Tested-by: Avi Rozen <avi.rozen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-02cdc_ether: add usb id for Ericsson F3507gBjørn Mork
The Ericsson F3507g wireless broadband module provides a CDC Ethernet compliant interface, but identifies it as a "Mobile Direct Line" CDC subclass, thereby preventing the CDC Ethernet class driver from picking it up. This patch adds the device id to cdc_ether.c as a workaround. Ericsson has provided a "class" driver for this device: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-net/2008/10/28/3832094 But closer inspection of that driver reveals that it adds little more than duplication of code from cdc_ether.c.

2007-05-10Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.Jeff Garzik
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into drivers/pci/net.
