can: gs_usb: gs_can_open(): always configure bitrates before starting device

2026-03-19T15:15:00Z

commit 2df6162785f31f1bbb598cfc3b08e4efc88f80b6 upstream. So far the driver populated the struct can_priv::do_set_bittiming() and struct can_priv::fd::do_set_data_bittiming() callbacks. Before bringing up the interface, user space has to configure the bitrates. With these callbacks the configuration is directly forwarded into the CAN hardware. Then the interface can be brought up. An ifdown-ifup cycle (without changing the bit rates) doesn't re-configure the bitrates in the CAN hardware. This leads to a problem with the CANable-2.5 [1] firmware, which resets the configured bit rates during ifdown. To fix the problem remove both bit timing callbacks and always configure the bitrates in the struct net_device_ops::ndo_open() callback.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix error message

2026-01-23T17:16:37Z

Sinc commit 79a6d1bfe114 ("can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): unanchor URL on usb_submit_urb() error") a failing resubmit URB will print an info message. In the case of a short read where netdev has not yet been assigned, initialize as NULL to avoid dereferencing an undefined value. Also report the error value of the failed resubmit.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): unanchor URL on usb_submit_urb() error

2026-01-16T17:09:04Z

In commit 7352e1d5932a ("can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak"), the URB was re-anchored before usb_submit_urb() in gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() to prevent a leak of this URB during cleanup. However, this patch did not take into account that usb_submit_urb() could fail. The URB remains anchored and usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&parent->rx_submitted) in gs_can_close() loops infinitely since the anchor list never becomes empty. To fix the bug, unanchor the URB when an usb_submit_urb() error occurs, also print an info message.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak

2026-01-09T09:31:21Z

In gs_can_open(), the URBs for USB-in transfers are allocated, added to the parent->rx_submitted anchor and submitted. In the complete callback gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(), the URB is processed and resubmitted. In gs_can_close() the URBs are freed by calling usb_kill_anchored_urbs(parent->rx_submitted). However, this does not take into account that the USB framework unanchors the URB before the complete function is called. This means that once an in-URB has been completed, it is no longer anchored and is ultimately not released in gs_can_close(). Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in the gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() to the parent->rx_submitted anchor.

can: gs_usb: gs_can_open(): fix error handling

2025-12-10T08:30:31Z

Commit 2603be9e8167 ("can: gs_usb: gs_can_open(): improve error handling") added missing error handling to the gs_can_open() function. The driver uses 2 USB anchors to track the allocated URBs: the TX URBs in struct gs_can::tx_submitted for each netdev and the RX URBs in struct gs_usb::rx_submitted for the USB device. gs_can_open() allocates the RX URBs, while TX URBs are allocated during gs_can_start_xmit(). The cleanup in gs_can_open() kills all anchored dev->tx_submitted URBs (which is not necessary since the netdev is not yet registered), but misses the parent->rx_submitted URBs. Fix the problem by killing the rx_submitted instead of the tx_submitted.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing data

2025-11-17T16:21:16Z

The URB received in gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() contains a struct gs_host_frame. The length of the data after the header depends on the gs_host_frame hf::flags and the active device features (e.g. time stamping). Introduce a new function gs_usb_get_minimum_length() and check that we have at least received the required amount of data before accessing it. Only copy the data to that skb that has actually been received.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing header

2025-11-16T16:04:13Z

The driver expects to receive a struct gs_host_frame in gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(). Use struct_group to describe the header of the struct gs_host_frame and check that we have at least received the header before accessing any members of it. To resubmit the URB, do not dereference the pointer chain "dev->parent->hf_size_rx" but use "parent->hf_size_rx" instead. Since "urb->context" contains "parent", it is always defined, while "dev" is not defined if the URB it too short.

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_xmit_callback(): fix handling of failed transmitted URBs

2025-11-16T16:03:43Z

The driver lacks the cleanup of failed transfers of URBs. This reduces the number of available URBs per error by 1. This leads to reduced performance and ultimately to a complete stop of the transmission. If the sending of a bulk URB fails do proper cleanup: - increase netdev stats - mark the echo_sbk as free - free the driver's context and do accounting - wake the send queue Closes: https://github.com/candle-usb/candleLight_fw/issues/187 Fixes: d08e973a77d1 ("can: gs_usb: Added support for the GS_USB CAN devices") Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251114-gs_usb-fix-usb-callbacks-v1-1-a29b42eacada@pengutronix.de Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: convert generic HW timestamp ioctl to ndo_hwtstamp callbacks

2025-10-31T12:12:18Z

Can has generic implementation of ndo_eth_ioctl which implements only HW timestamping commands. Implement generic ndo_hwtstamp callbacks and use it in drivers instead of generic ioctl interface.
