Re: usb: Error while assigning device slot ID

Hi

Flash driver appears as a Full-Speed device. Is this correct?

Does it work if you boot without the drive and then connect it later?

Device is detected early during hub init on xhci-hcd.3.auto USB5 bus port 1.

hub driver reacts to the FS device

hub driver queued xhci enable slot command during usb_alloc_dev(), and rings doorbell.
At least xhci driver assumes command ring and xHC are in proper running states.

Command times out, xHC is running, no pending interrupts

No event for aborting the ring ether.
Maybe interrupts from this xHC aren't coming through.
Or then something in xHC isn't set up properly when command is queued.

Could you add xhci tracing, and dump the command and event rings after timeout?

Debug and tracing:

mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
echo 'module xhci_hcd =p' >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
echo 'module usbcore =p' >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
echo 81920 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/xhci-hcd/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
< Reproduce issue >
Send output of dmesg
Send content of /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

Dumping command and event rings after command timeout:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/xhci/<hci-hcd.3.auto address> /event-ring/trbs
cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/xhci/<hci-hcd.3.auto address>/command-ring/trbs

Thanks
