No, I'm not. usb_control_msg_recv() is an API that was recently introduced, and get_registers() in rtl8150.c was also modified to use it in order to prevent partial reads.

The script I've been using for sending patches in had been configured to CC the maintainer(s) and respective mailing list(s). Sorry about that.

Ah, my apologies. You're right. It doesn't look like those helpers have made their way into the networking tree yet. (This gets mentioned here as well, https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg357843.html) The commit ID pointed to by the fixes tag is correct. The change introduced by said commit looks right, but is logically incorrect. get_registers() directly returns the return value of usb_control_msg_recv(), and usb_control_msg_recv() returns 0 on success and negative error number otherwise. (You can find more about the new helpers here https://lore.kernel.org/alsa-devel/20200914153756.3412156-1-gregkh@linuxfoundation.org/ ) The commit ID mentioned introduces a change that is supposed to copy over the ethernet only when get_registers() succeeds, i.e., a complete read occurs, and generate and set a random ethernet address otherwise (reading the commit message should give some more insight). The condition that checks if get_registers() succeeds (as specified in f45a4248ea4c) was, ret == sizeof(node_id) where ret is the return value of get_registers(). However, ret will never equal sizeof(node_id), since ret can only be equal to 0 or a negative number. Thus, even in case where get_registers() succeeds, a randomly generated MAC address would get copied over, instead of copying the appropriate ethernet address, which is logically incorrect and not optimal. Hence, we need to modify this to check if (ret == 0), and copy over the correct ethernet address in that case, instead of randomly generating one and assigning that. Hope this helps.

I see... so we ended up with your fix applied to net, and Petko's rework applied to the usb/usb-next tree. What you're actually fixing is the improper resolution of the resulting conflict in linux-next! CCing Stephen and linux-next. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

Checking the return value of each get/set_registers() is going to be a PITA and not very helpful. Doing so when setting the MAC address _does_ make sense as in that case it is not a hard error. In almost all other occasions if usb_control_msg_send/recv() return an error i'd rather dump an error message (from within get/set_registers()) and let the user decide whether to get rid of this adapter or start debugging it. cheers, Petko > $ git grep -w '[gs]et_registers' drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c:static int get_registers(rtl8150_t * dev, u16 indx, u16 size, void *data) > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c:static int set_registers(rtl8150_t * dev, u16 indx, u16 size, const void *data) > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, PHYADD, sizeof(data), data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, PHYCNT, 1, &tmp); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, PHYCNT, 1, data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, PHYDAT, 2, data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, PHYADD, sizeof(data), data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, PHYCNT, 1, &tmp); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, PHYCNT, 1, data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: ret = get_registers(dev, IDR, sizeof(node_id), node_id); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, IDR, netdev->addr_len, netdev->dev_addr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, IDR_EEPROM + (i * 2), 2, > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, CR, 1, &data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, CR, 1, &data); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, RCR, 1, &rcr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, TCR, 1, &tcr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, MSR, 1, &msr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, CR, 1, &cr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, CSCR, 2, &tmp); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: set_registers(dev, IDR, 6, netdev->dev_addr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, BMCR, 2, &bmcr); > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c: get_registers(dev, ANLP, 2, &lpa); > > > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread

Umpf. I think Greg sent his changes first, so this is on me. The networking PR is still outstanding, can we reply to the PR with the merge guidance.
