The firmware in several ZTE devices (at least the MF823/831/910 modems/mifis) use OS fingerprinting to determine which type of device to export. In addition, these devices export a REST API which can be used to control the type of device. So far, on Linux, the devices have been seen as RNDIS or CDC Ether. When CDC Ether is used, devices of the same type are, as with RNDIS, exported with the same, bogus random MAC address. In addition, the devices (at least on all firmware revisions I have found) use the bogus MAC when sending traffic routed from external networks. And as a final feature, the devices sometimes export the link state incorrectly. There are also references online to several other ZTE devices displaying this behavior, with several different PIDs and MAC addresses. This patch tries to improve the handling of ZTE devices by doing the following: * Create a new driver_info-struct that is used by ZTE devices that do not have an explicit entry in the product table. This struct is the same as the default cdc_ether driver info, but a new bind- and an rx_fixup-function have been added. * In the new bind function, we check if we have read a random MAC from the device. If we have, then we generate a new random MAC address. This will ensure that all devices get a unique MAC. * The rx_fixup-function replaces the destination MAC address in the skb with that of the device. I have not seen a revision of these devices that behaves correctly (i.e., sets the right destination MAC), so I chose not to do any comparison with for example the known, bogus addresses. * The MF823/MF832/MF910 sometimes export cdc carrier on twice on connect (the correct behavior is off then on). Work around this by manually setting carrier to off if an on-notification is received and the NOCARRIER-bit is not set. This change will affect all devices, but it should take care of similar mistakes made by other manufacturers. I tried to think of/look/test for problems/regressions that could be introduced by this behavior, but could not find any. However, my familiarity with this code path is not that great, so there could be something I have overlooked. I have tested this patch with multiple revisions of all three devices, and they behave as expected. In other words, they all got a valid, random MAC, the correct operational state and I can receive/sent traffic without problems. I also tested with some other cdc_ether devices I have and did not find any problems/regressions caused by the two general changes. v3->v4: * Forgot to remove unused variables, sorry about that (thanks David Miller). v2->v3: * I had forgot to remove the random MAC generation from usbnet_cdc_bind() (thanks Oliver). * Rework logic in the ZTE bind-function a bit. v1->v2: * Only generate random MAC for ZTE devices (thanks Oliver Neukum). * Set random MAC and do RX fixup for all ZTE devices that do not have a product-entry, as the bogus MAC have been seen on devices with several different PIDs/MAC addresses. In other words, it seems to be the default behavior of ZTE CDC Ether devices (thanks Lars Melin).
