The +assumption is that an userspace application initiating a DSS session +also takes care of the necessary framing of the DSS data, presenting +the stream to the end user in an appropriate way for the stream type. + +The network device ABI requires a dummy ethernet header for every DSS +data frame being transported. The contents of this header is +arbitrary, with the following exceptions: + - TX frames using an IP protocol (0x0800 or 0x86dd) will be dropped + - RX frames will have the protocol field set to ETH_P_802_3 (but will + not be properly formatted 802.3 frames) + - RX frames will have the destination address set to the hardware + address of the master device + +The DSS supporting userspace management application is responsible for +adding the dummy ethernet header on TX and stripping it on RX. + +This is a simple example using tools commonly available, exporting +DssSessionId 5 as a pty character device pointed to by a /dev/nmea +symlink: + + ip link add link wwan0 name wwan0.dss5 type vlan id 261 + ip link set dev wwan0.dss5 up + socat INTERFACE:wwan0.dss5,type=2 PTY:,echo=0,link=/dev/nmea + +This is only an example, most suitable for testing out a DSS +service. Userspace applications supporting specific MBIM DSS services +are expected to use the tools and programming interfaces required by +that service. + +Note that adding VLAN links for DSS sessions is entirely optional. A +management application may instead choose to bind a packet socket +directly to the master network device, using the received VLAN tags to +map frames to the correct DSS session and adding 18 byte VLAN ethernet +headers with the appropriate tag on TX. In this case using a socket +filter is recommended, matching only the DSS VLAN subset. This avoid +unnecessary copying of unrelated IP session data to userspace. For +example: + + static struct sock_filter dssfilter[] = { + /* use special negative offsets to get VLAN tag */ + BPF_STMT(BPF_LD|BPF_B|BPF_ABS, SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG_PRESENT), + BPF_JUMP(BPF_JMP|BPF_JEQ|BPF_K, 1, 0, 6), /* true */ + + /* verify DSS VLAN range */ + BPF_STMT(BPF_LD|BPF_H|BPF_ABS, SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG), + BPF_JUMP(BPF_JMP|BPF_JGE|BPF_K, 256, 0, 4), /* 256 is first DSS VLAN */ + BPF_JUMP(BPF_JMP|BPF_JGE|BPF_K, 512, 3, 0), /* 511 is last DSS VLAN */ + + /* verify ethertype */ + BPF_STMT(BPF_LD|BPF_H|BPF_ABS, 2 * ETH_ALEN), + BPF_JUMP(BPF_JMP|BPF_JEQ|BPF_K, ETH_P_802_3, 0, 1), + + BPF_STMT(BPF_RET|BPF_K, (u_int)-1), /* accept */ + BPF_STMT(BPF_RET|BPF_K, 0), /* ignore */ + }; + + + +Tagged IP session 0 VLAN +------------------------ +As described above, MBIM IP session 0 is treated as special by the +driver. It is initially mapped to untagged frames on the wwanY +network device. + +This mapping implies a few restrictions on multiplexed IPS and DSS +sessions, which may not always be practical: + - no IPS or DSS session can use a frame size greater than the MTU on + IP session 0 + - no IPS or DSS session can be in the up state unless the network + device representing IP session 0 also is up + +These problems can be avoided by optionally making the driver map IP +session 0 to a VLAN subdevice, similar to all other IP sessions. This +behaviour is triggered by adding a VLAN link for the magic VLAN ID +4094. The driver will then immediately start mapping MBIM IP session +0 to this VLAN, and will drop untagged frames on the master wwanY +device. + +Tip: It might be less confusing to the end user to name this VLAN +subdevice after the MBIM SessionID instead of the VLAN ID. For +example: + + ip link add link wwan0 name wwan0.0 type vlan id 4094 + + +VLAN mapping +------------ + +Summarizing the cdc_mbim driver mapping described above, we have this +relationship between VLAN tags on the wwanY network device and MBIM +sessions on the shared USB data channel: + + VLAN ID MBIM type MBIM SessionID Notes + --------------------------------------------------------- + untagged IPS 0 a) + 1 - 255 IPS 1 - 255 <VLANID> + 256 - 511 DSS 0 - 255 <VLANID - 256> + 512 - 4093 b) + 4094 IPS 0 c) + + a) if no VLAN ID 4094 link exists, else dropped + b) unsupported VLAN range, unconditionally dropped + c) if a VLAN ID 4094 link exists, else dropped + + + + +References +========== + +[1] USB Implementers Forum, Inc. - "Universal Serial Bus + Communications Class Subclass Specification for Mobile Broadband + Interface Model", Revision 1.0 (Errata 1), May 1, 2013 + - http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/devclass_docs/ + +[2] USB Implementers Forum, Inc. - "Universal Serial Bus + Communications Class Subclass Specifications for Network Control + Model Devices", Revision 1.0 (Errata 1), November 24, 2010 + - http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/devclass_docs/ + +[3] libmbim - "a glib-based library for talking to WWAN modems and + devices which speak the Mobile Interface Broadband Model (MBIM) + protocol" + - http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/libmbim/ + +[4] ModemManager - "a DBus-activated daemon which controls mobile + broadband (2G/3G/4G) devices and connections" + - http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ModemManager/ + +[5] "MBIM (Mobile Broadband Interface Model) Registry" + - http://compliance.usb.org/mbim/ + +[6] "/proc/bus/usb filesystem output" + - Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt + +[7] "/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../descriptors" + - Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-bus-usb diff --git a/Documentation/networking/filter.txt b/Documentation/networking/filter.txt index 81f940f4e884..58c443926647 100644 --- a/Documentation/networking/filter.txt +++ b/Documentation/networking/filter.txt @@ -277,10 +277,11 @@ Possible BPF extensions are shown in the following table: mark skb->mark queue skb->queue_mapping hatype skb->dev->type - rxhash skb->rxhash + rxhash skb->hash cpu raw_smp_processor_id() vlan_tci vlan_tx_tag_get(skb) vlan_pr vlan_tx_tag_present(skb) + rand prandom_u32() These extensions can also be prefixed with '#'.

I have a cable that is configured -for this. - - -Ports and devices -================= - -Port 0 is the one furthest from the card-edge connector. - -Devices: - -You should make the devices as follows: - -bash -cd /dev -for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 \ - 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 -do - echo -n "$i " - mknod /dev/ttyW$i c 75 $i - mknod /dev/cuw$i c 76 $i -done -echo "" - -If your system doesn't come with these devices preinstalled, bug your -linux-vendor about this.

I suspect that this is - because the CD1864 is not rated for 33MHz operation. - Therefore the CD1864 versions of the card can't do 115k2 on - all ports just like the CD1865 versions. The driver does - not block 115k2 on CD1864 cards. - == I called the Cirrus Logic representative here in Holland. - The CD1864 databook is identical to the CD1865 databook, - except for an extra warning at the end. Similar Bit errors - have been observed in testing at 115k2 on both an 1865 and - a 1864 chip. I see no reason why I would prohibit 115k2 on - 1864 chips and not do it on 1865 chips.

Ever misplace your Linux -kernel sources? And the manual of one of the boards in your computer? - - -Theory of operation -=================== - -An important thing to know is that the driver itself doesn't have the -firmware for the card. This means that you need the separate package -"sx_firmware". For now you can get the source at - - ftp://ftp.bitwizard.nl/specialix/sx_firmware_<version>.tgz - -The firmware load needs a "misc" device, so you'll need to enable the -"Support for user misc device modules" in your kernel configuration. -The misc device needs to be called "/dev/specialix_sxctl". It needs -misc major 10, and minor number 167 (assigned by HPA). The section -on creating device files below also creates this device. - -After loading the sx.o module into your kernel, the driver will report -the number of cards detected, but because it doesn't have any -firmware, it will not be able to determine the number of ports. Only -when you then run "sx_firmware" will the firmware be downloaded and -the rest of the driver initialized. At that time the sx_firmware -program will report the number of ports installed. - -In contrast with many other multi port serial cards, some of the data -structures are only allocated when the card knows the number of ports -that are connected. This means we won't waste memory for 120 port -descriptor structures when you only have 8 ports. If you experience -problems due to this, please report them: I haven't seen any. - - -Interrupts -========== - -A multi port serial card, would generate a horrendous amount of -interrupts if it would interrupt the CPU for every received -character. Even more than 10 years ago, the trick not to use -interrupts but to poll the serial cards was invented. - -The SX card allow us to do this two ways. First the card limits its -own interrupt rate to a rate that won't overwhelm the CPU. Secondly, -we could forget about the cards interrupt completely and use the -internal timer for this purpose. - -Polling the card can take up to a few percent of your CPU. Using the -interrupts would be better if you have most of the ports idle. Using -timer-based polling is better if your card almost always has work to -do. You save the separate interrupt in that case. - -In any case, it doesn't really matter all that much. - -The most common problem with interrupts is that for ISA cards in a PCI -system the BIOS has to be told to configure that interrupt as "legacy -ISA". Otherwise the card can pull on the interrupt line all it wants -but the CPU won't see this. - -If you can't get the interrupt to work, remember that polling mode is -more efficient (provided you actually use the card intensively). - - -Allowed Configurations -====================== - -Some configurations are disallowed. Even though at a glance they might -seem to work, they are known to lockup the bus between the host card -and the device concentrators. You should respect the drivers decision -not to support certain configurations. It's there for a reason. - -Warning: Seriously technical stuff ahead. Executive summary: Don't use -SX cards except configured at a 64k boundary. Skip the next paragraph. - -The SX cards can theoretically be placed at a 32k boundary. So for -instance you can put an SX card at 0xc8000-0xd7fff. This is not a -"recommended configuration". ISA cards have to tell the bus controller -how they like their timing. Due to timing issues they have to do this -based on which 64k window the address falls into. This means that the -32k window below and above the SX card have to use exactly the same -timing as the SX card. That reportedly works for other SX cards. But -you're still left with two useless 32k windows that should not be used -by anybody else. - - -Configuring the driver -====================== - -PCI cards are always detected. The driver auto-probes for ISA cards at -some sensible addresses. Please report if the auto-probe causes trouble -in your system, or when a card isn't detected. - -I'm afraid I haven't implemented "kernel command line parameters" yet. -This means that if the default doesn't work for you, you shouldn't use -the compiled-into-the-kernel version of the driver. Use a module -instead. If you convince me that you need this, I'll make it for -you. Deal? - -I'm afraid that the module parameters are a bit clumsy. If you have a -better idea, please tell me. - -You can specify several parameters: - - sx_poll: number of jiffies between timer-based polls. - - Set this to "0" to disable timer based polls. - Initialization of cards without a working interrupt - will fail. - - Set this to "1" if you want a polling driver. - (on Intel: 100 polls per second). If you don't use - fast baud rates, you might consider a value like "5". - (If you don't know how to do the math, use 1). - - sx_slowpoll: Number of jiffies between timer-based polls. - Set this to "100" to poll once a second. - This should get the card out of a stall if the driver - ever misses an interrupt. I've never seen this happen, - and if it does, that's a bug. Tell me. - - sx_maxints: Number of interrupts to request from the card. - The card normally limits interrupts to about 100 per - second to offload the host CPU. You can increase this - number to reduce latency on the card a little. - Note that if you give a very high number you can overload - your CPU as well as the CPU on the host card. This setting - is inaccurate and not recommended for SI cards (But it - works). - - sx_irqmask: The mask of allowable IRQs to use. I suggest you set - this to 0 (disable IRQs all together) and use polling if - the assignment of IRQs becomes problematic. This is defined - as the sum of (1 << irq) 's that you want to allow. So - sx_irqmask of 8 (1 << 3) specifies that only irq 3 may - be used by the SX driver. If you want to specify to the - driver: "Either irq 11 or 12 is ok for you to use", then - specify (1 << 11) | (1 << 12) = 0x1800 . - - sx_debug: You can enable different sorts of debug traces with this. - At "-1" all debugging traces are active. You'll get several - times more debugging output than you'll get characters - transmitted. - - -Baud rates -========== - -Theoretically new SXDCs should be capable of more than 460k -baud. However the line drivers usually give up before that. Also the -CPU on the card may not be able to handle 8 channels going at full -blast at that speed. Moreover, the buffers are not large enough to -allow operation with 100 interrupts per second. You'll have to realize -that the card has a 256 byte buffer, so you'll have to increase the -number of interrupts per second if you have more than 256*100 bytes -per second to transmit. If you do any performance testing in this -area, I'd be glad to hear from you... - -(Psst Linux users..... I think the Linux driver is more efficient than -the driver for other OSes. If you can and want to benchmark them -against each other, be my guest, and report your findings...... :-) - - -Ports and devices -================= - -Port 0 is the top connector on the module closest to the host -card. Oh, the ports on the SXDCs and TAs are labelled from 1 to 8 -instead of from 0 to 7, as they are numbered by linux. I'm stubborn in -this: I know for sure that I wouldn't be able to calculate which port -is which anymore if I would change that.... - - -Devices: - -You should make the device files as follows: - -#!/bin/sh -# (I recommend that you cut-and-paste this into a file and run that) -cd /dev -t=0 -mknod specialix_sxctl c 10 167 -while [ $t -lt 64 ] - do - echo -n "$t " - mknod ttyX$t c 32 $t - mknod cux$t c 33 $t - t=`expr $t + 1` -done -echo "" -rm /etc/psdevtab -ps > /dev/null - - -This creates 64 devices.
