From df3aa13c7bbb307e172c37f193f9a7aa058d4739 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oliver Neukum Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2018 17:56:46 +0200 Subject: Revert "cdc-acm: implement put_char() and flush_chars()" This reverts commit a81cf9799ad7299b03a4dff020d9685f9ac5f3e0. The patch causes a regression, which I cannot find the reason for. So let's revert for now, as a revert hurts only performance. Original report: I was trying to resolve the problem with Oliver but we don't get any conclusion for 5 months, so I am now sending this to mail list and cdc_acm authors. I am using simple request-response protocol to obtain the boiller parameters in constant intervals. A simple one transaction is: 1. opening the /dev/ttyACM0 2. sending the following 10-bytes request to the device: unsigned char req[] = {0x02, 0xfe, 0x01, 0x05, 0x08, 0x02, 0x01, 0x69, 0xab, 0x03}; 3. reading response (frame of 74 bytes length). 4. closing the descriptor I am doing this transaction with 5 seconds intervals. Before the bad commit everything was working correctly: I've got a requests and a responses in a timely manner. After the bad commit more time I am using the kernel module, more problems I have. The graph [2] is showing the problem. As you can see after module load all seems fine but after about 30 minutes I've got a plenty of EAGAINs when doing read()'s and trying to read back the data. When I rmmod and insmod the cdc_acm module again, then the situation is starting over again: running ok shortly after load, and more time it is running, more EAGAINs I have when calling read(). As a bonus I can see the problem on the device itself: The device is configured as you can see here on this screen [3]. It has two transmision LEDs: TX and RX. Blink duration is set for 100ms. This is a recording before the bad commit when all is working fine: [4] And this is with the bad commit: [5] As you can see the TX led is blinking wrongly long (indicating transmission?) and I have problems doing read() calls (EAGAIN).
