<id>e2ca90c276e1fc410d7cd3c1a4eee245ec902a20</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a resubmission.
Added kfree() in ax88179_get_eeprom to prevent memory leakage.
Modified "__le16 rxctl" to "u16 rxctl" in "struct ax88179_data" and removed pointless casts.
Removed asix_init and asix_exit functions and added "module_usb_driver(ax88179_178a_driver)".
Fixed endianness issue on big endian systems and verified this driver on iBook G4.
Removed steps that change net-&gt;features in ax88179_set_features function.
Added "const" to ethtool_ops structure and fixed the coding style of AX88179_BULKIN_SIZE array.
Fixed the issue that the default MTU is not 1500.
Added ax88179_change_mtu function and enabled the hardware jumbo frame function to support an
MTU higher than 1500.
Fixed indentation and empty line coding style errors.
The _nopm version usb functions were added to access register in suspend and resume functions.
Serveral variables allocted dynamically were removed and replaced by stack variables.
ax88179_get_eeprom were modified from asix_get_eeprom in asix_common.

This patch adds a driver for ASIX's AX88179 family of USB 3.0/2.0
to gigabit ethernet adapters. It's based on the AX88xxx driver but
the usb commands used to access registers for AX88179 are completely different.
This driver had been verified on x86 system with AX88179/AX88178A and
Sitcomm LN-032 USB dongles.

The Asix AX88172A is a USB 2.0 Ethernet interface that supports both an
internal PHY as well as an external PHY (connected via MII).

This patch adds a driver for the AX88172A and provides support for
both modes and the phylib.

<title>net: usb: qmi_wwan: New driver for Huawei QMI based WWAN devices</title>

<id>423ce8caab7ea2b13f4a29ce0839369528aafaeb</id>
<content type='text'>
Some WWAN LTE/3G devices based on chipsets from Qualcomm provide
near standard CDC ECM interfaces in addition to the usual serial
interfaces.   The Huawei E392/E398 are examples of such devices.

These typically cannot be fully configured using AT commands
over a serial interface.  It is necessary to speak the proprietary
Qualcomm MSM Interface (QMI) protocol to the device to enable the
ethernet proxy functionality.

The devices embed the QMI protocol in CDC on the control interface,
using standard CDC commands and notifications. The do not otherwise
use CDC commands for the ethernet function.  This driver does
therefore not need access to any other aspects of the control
interface than the descriptors attached to it.

Another driver, cdc-wdm, will provide userspace access to the
QMI protocol independently of this driver.  To facilitate this,
this driver avoids binding to the control interface, and uses
only the associated data interface after parsing the common CDC
functional descriptors on the control interface.

You will want both the cdc-wdm and option drivers as companions to
this driver, to have full access to all interfaces and protocols
exported by the device.

<title>net/usb: Add Samsung Kalmia driver for Samsung GT-B3730</title>

<content type='text'>
Introducing driver for the network port of Samsung Kalmia based USB LTE modems.
It has also an ACM interface that previous patches associates with the "option"
module. To access those interfaces, the modem must first be switched from modem
mode using a tool like usb_modeswitch.

As the proprietary protocol has been discovered by watching the MS Windows driver
behavior, there might be errors in the protocol handling, but stable and fast
connection has been established for hours with Norwegian operator NetCom that
distributes this modem with their LTE/4G subscription.

More and updated information about how to use this driver is available here:

<title>net/usb: Ethernet quirks for the LG-VL600 4G modem</title>

<content type='text'>
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.

  transfers up to 64K;
- driver can handle up to 32 datagrams in received NTB;
- timer is used to collect several packets in Tx direction

drivers/net/usb/Kconfig:
- a new entry to compile CDC NCM host driver
drivers/net/usb/Makefile:
