For TCP traffic there are +exchanges between tethered host and server but packets are modified in +transit leading to impossible communication. + +After some trials Matti Vuorela discovered that reducing the URB buffer +size by two bytes restored the previous behavior. While a better +solution might exist to fix the issue, since the protocol is not +publicly documented and considering the small size of the fix, let's do +that. + +Tested-by: Matti Vuorela +Signed-off-by: Yves-Alexis Perez +Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/CAAn0qaXmysJ9vx3ZEMkViv_B19ju-_ExN8Yn_uSefxpjS6g4Lw@mail.gmail.com/ +Link: https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libimobiledevice/issues/1038 +Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org +--- + drivers/net/usb/ipheth.c | 2 +- + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) + +--- a/drivers/net/usb/ipheth.c ++++ b/drivers/net/usb/ipheth.c +@@ -70,7 +70,7 @@ + #define IPHETH_USBINTF_SUBCLASS 253 + #define IPHETH_USBINTF_PROTO 1 + +-#define IPHETH_BUF_SIZE 1516 ++#define IPHETH_BUF_SIZE 1514 + #define IPHETH_IP_ALIGN 2 /* padding at front of URB */ + #define IPHETH_TX_TIMEOUT (5 * HZ) +
