Subject: [PATCH v1] net: cdc_ncm: update datagram size after changing mtu

From: Rafal Redzimski <[email protected]>

Current implementation updates the mtu size and notify cdc_ncm
device using USB_CDC_SET_MAX_DATAGRAM_SIZE request about datagram
size change instead of changing rx_urb_size.

Whenever mtu is being changed, datagram size should also be
updated.

Definitely! Thanks for this. But looking at the code I believe you
need to fix the calculation of maxmtu too. It is currently:

int maxmtu = ctx->max_datagram_size - cdc_ncm_eth_hlen(dev);

And cdc_ncm_set_dgram_size() updates ctx->max_datagram_size with the new
mtu, meaning that you can only reduce the mtu. We should probably use
cdc_ncm_max_dgram_size() instead here.

And cdc_ncm_set_dgram_size() takes the datagram size with header as
input (ref the above maxmtu calucalution), so it probably needs to
called as

cdc_ncm_set_dgram_size(dev, new_mtu + cdc_ncm_eth_hlen(dev));

to get it right. I think. None of this is tested on an actual device
yet... Care to test if I'm right, and do a v2 if necessry?

This should be dropped for net. Ask David to queue it for stable
instead. I usually do that by using a subject prefix like

[PATCH net,stable v1] ...

ok, thanks for feedback I will send v2 patch
