Stephen, Thierry, have either of you had a chance to test this
series?



I haven't had a chance to yet. I just went to try it out, and found
that
it
depends on a whole slew of other patches that I don't have. Is there a
git
branch somewhere to save me having to track down all the dependencies?



Yes, Tomeu has the branch he used for testing here:
http://cgit.collabora.com/git/user/tomeu/linux.git/log/?h=3.17rc4-xhci



Hmm. That git server was quite reluctant to cough up its bits, but it
did
eventually.

You'll also need the firmware Andrew Chew posted:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/384013/



The XHCI driver can't load its firmware unless it's a module; if I make
it
built-in, it fails immediately with error -2 during "Direct firmware
loading". The driver needs to work with either immediate or deferred
firmware loading.


If you want the driver to be built-in, you'll either need to build the
firmware in as well (i.e. EXTRA_FIRMWARE) or enable
FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK to load with userspace/uevent (though
apparently this is deprecated).

The following USB2 devices had problems:

Thanks, I'll try to figure out what's going on here.


Grr... this is due to the unfortunate UTMI pad controller design on Tegra.

Here's the issue: When UTMI pad 0 is assigned to the EHCI controller
(as is currently the case on Jetson-TK1), the UTMI parameters from
UTMIP_BIAS_CFG0 in the global UTMI pad register space are used
regardless of the owner of the UTMI pads. If pad 0 is assigned to the
XUSB controller, then parameters in USB2_BIAS_PAD_CTL0 in the XUSB
register space are used for all UTMI pads (again, regardless of
ownership).

I wasn't able to reproduce before because I always TFTP booted and
U-Boot programs the UTMI parameters correctly when starting the EHCI
controllers. I suspect you and Tomeu were booting without starting
the EHCI controllers and thus were stuck with the POR values.


I am loading the kernel over the PCIe Ethernet on Jetson TK1. However, the
U-Boot boot scripts do "usb start" first, so I would assume all the USB set
is already done either way, before U-Boot attempts to probe USB devices.

Interesting - just doing "usb start" made the difference for me.

The easiest way to fix this is to just assign UTMI port 0 (i.e. the
OTG port) to the XUSB controller. AFAIK, device mode on Tegra isn't
supported yet in the kernel, so this shouldn't break any existing use
cases. If we wanted to support device mode in the future, it would
just have to be done with the XUSB controller instead. The
alternative is some ugly driver that programs the correct register set
depending on which controller UTMI port 0 is assigned to.

BTW, here's a patch to assign UTMI port 0 to XUSB:

};


That's a bit better; I now see dmesg entries when I plug in my hub where
before I got none. However, I still get some descriptor read errors etc.,

I see those sometimes with my ethernet dongle too, but it still seems
to work ok.

and the USB HDD I have behind the hub isn't fully detected.

Can you post the dmesg output? Does it work when not behind the hub?
So far I haven't seen any failures with my pile of USB devices after
the above change.

Hmm. I think I must have screwed up my testing after applying that patch; likely I retested a kernel without that patch.

Today, I retested 4 flash devices, 1 SD reader, 1 HDD, 1 mouse, 1 keyboard, 1 Ethernet dongle, and 1 hub. All worked fine. I tested the HDD/mouse/keyboard/ethernet all together behind the hub too, and with it either plugged in at power on, or plugged in after boot, it all worked.

So, I think we're good:-)
