Hi,
Hi,
Referring to patch with commit ID (*e10dcb1b6ba714243ad5a35a11b91cc14103a9a9*).
This is a spec violation for CDC NCM class driver. Driver clearly says the significance of network capabilities. (snapshot below)
However, with the mentioned patch these values are disrespected and commands specific to these capabilities are sent from the host regardless of device' capabilities to handle them.
Right. So for your device, the correct behavior would be to do nothing, wouldn't it? The packets would be delivered and the host needs to filter and discard unrequested packets.
Currently we are setting these bits to 0 indicating no capabilities on our device and still we observe that Host (Linux kernel host cdc driver) has been sending requests specific to these capabilities.
Please let me know if there is a better way to indicate host that device does not have these capabilities.
no you are doing things as they are supposed to be done and the host is at fault. This kernel bug needs to be fixed.
Regards Oliver
Oliver, Thanks for the quick confirmation. Tracked in kernel Bugzilla by "Bug 217290".

Thanks for the report. To be sure the issue doesn't fall through the cracks unnoticed, I'm adding it to regzbot, the Linux kernel regression tracking bot:
#regzbot ^introduced e10dcb1b6ba714243ad https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217290 #regzbot from: Purohit, Kaushal #regzbot title net: cdc_ncm: spec violation for CDC NCM #regzbot ignore-activity
This isn't a regression? This issue or a fix for it are already discussed somewhere else? It was fixed already? You want to clarify when the regression started to happen? Or point out I got the title or something else totally wrong? Then just reply and tell me -- ideally while also telling regzbot about it, as explained by the page listed in the footer of this mail.
Developers: When fixing the issue, remember to add 'Link:' tags pointing to the report (the parent of this mail). See page linked in footer for details.

Apologies for late reply, I was stuck with something.
Yes attached patch was working well. I did not see set filter params request after applying this patch.
Thanks, Kaushal
