Since this patch is missing the hunks that landed in the previous patch and needs a v4, I'll offer my version of the commit message in case you like it better: net: cdc_ncm: record speed in status method Until very recently, the usbnet framework only had support functions for devices which reported the link speed by explicitly querying the PHY over a MDIO interface. However, the cdc_ncm devices send notifications when the link state or link speeds change and do not expose the PHY (or modem) directly. Support functions (e.g. usbnet_get_link_ksettings_internal()) to directly query state recorded by the cdc_ncm driver were added in a previous patch. So instead of cdc_ncm spewing the link speed into the dmesg buffer, record the link speed encoded in these notifications and tell the usbnet framework to use the new functions to get link speed. This is especially useful given all existing RTL8156 devices emit a connection/speed status notification every 32ms and this would fill the dmesg buffer. This implementation replaces the one recently submitted in de658a195ee23ca6aaffe197d1d2ea040beea0a2 : "net: usb: cdc_ncm: don't spew notifications" cheers, grant > v2: rebased on upstream > v3: changed variable names > > Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneu...@suse.com> > Tested-by: Roland Dreier <rol...@kernel.org> > --- > drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c | 23 +---------------------- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 22 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c b/drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c > index 0d26cbeb6e04..74c1a86b1a71 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c > +++ b/drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c > @@ -1829,30 +1829,9 @@ cdc_ncm_speed_change(struct usbnet *dev, > uint32_t rx_speed = le32_to_cpu(data->DLBitRRate); > uint32_t tx_speed = le32_to_cpu(data->ULBitRate); > > - /* if the speed hasn't changed, don't report it. > - * RTL8156 shipped before 2021 sends notification about every 32ms. > - */ > - if (dev->rx_speed == rx_speed && dev->tx_speed == tx_speed) > - return; > - > + /* RTL8156 shipped before 2021 sends notification about every 32ms. > */ > dev->rx_speed = rx_speed; > dev->tx_speed = tx_speed; > - > - /* > - * Currently the USB-NET API does not support reporting the actual > - * device speed.
