[PATCH 3/3] xhci: Don't perform Soft Retry for Etron xHCI host

[Kuangyi Chiang]

Since commit f8f80be501aa ("xhci: Use soft retry to recover faster from
transaction errors"), unplugging USB device while enumeration results in
errors like this:

[ 364.855321] xhci_hcd 0000:0b:00.0: ERROR Transfer event for disabled endpoint slot 5 ep 2
[ 364.864622] xhci_hcd 0000:0b:00.0: @0000002167656d70 67f03000 00000021 0c000000 05038001

[ 374.973984] xhci_hcd 0000:0b:00.0: Timeout while waiting for configure endpoint command

Seems that Etorn xHCI host can not perform Soft Retry correctly, apply
XHCI_NO_SOFT_RETRY quirk to disable Soft Retry and then issue is gone.

This patch depends on commit a4a251f8c235 ("usb: xhci: do not perform
Soft Retry for some xHCI hosts").

[PATCH 2/3] xhci: Fix control transfer error on Etron xHCI host

[Kuangyi Chiang]

Performing a stability stress test on a USB3.0 2.5G ethernet adapter
results in errors like this:

[   91.441469] r8152 2-3:1.0 eth3: get_registers -71
[   91.458659] r8152 2-3:1.0 eth3: get_registers -71
[   91.475911] r8152 2-3:1.0 eth3: get_registers -71
[   91.493203] r8152 2-3:1.0 eth3: get_registers -71
[   91.510421] r8152 2-3:1.0 eth3: get_registers -71

The r8152 driver will periodically issue lots of control-IN requests
to access the status of ethernet adapter hardware registers during
the test.

This happens when the xHCI driver enqueue a control TD (which cross
over the Link TRB between two ring segments, as shown) in the endpoint
zero's transfer ring. Seems the Etron xHCI host can not perform this
TD correctly, causing the USB transfer error occurred, maybe the upper
driver retry that control-IN request can solve problem, but not all
drivers do this.

|     |
-------
| TRB | Setup Stage
-------
| TRB | Link
-------
-------
| TRB | Data Stage
-------
| TRB | Status Stage
-------
|     |

To work around this, the xHCI driver should enqueue a No Op TRB if
next available TRB is the Link TRB in the ring segment, this can
prevent the Setup and Data Stage TRB to be breaked by the Link TRB.

Add a new quirk flag XHCI_NO_BREAK_CTRL_TD to invoke the workaround
in xhci_queue_ctrl_tx().

Both EJ168 and EJ188 have the same problem, applying this patch then
the problem is gone.

[PATCH 1/3] xhci: Don't issue Reset Device command to Etron xHCI host

[Kuangyi Chiang]

Sometimes the hub driver does not recognize the USB device connected
to the external USB2.0 hub when the system resumes from S4.

After the SetPortFeature(PORT_RESET) request is completed, the hub
driver calls the HCD reset_device callback, which will issue a Reset
Device command and free all structures associated with endpoints
that were disabled.

This happens when the xHCI driver issue a Reset Device command to
inform the Etron xHCI host that the USB device associated with a
device slot has been reset. Seems that the Etron xHCI host can not
perform this command correctly, affecting the USB device.

To work around this, the xHCI driver should obtain a new device slot
with reference to commit 651aaf36a7d7 ("usb: xhci: Handle USB transaction
error on address command"), which is another way to inform the Etron
xHCI host that the USB device has been reset.

Add a new quirk flag XHCI_NO_RESET_DEVICE to invoke the workaround
in xhci_discover_or_reset_device().

Both EJ168 and EJ188 have the same problem, applying this patch then
the problem is gone.

Re: [PATCH 0/3] xhci: Some improvement for Etron xHCI host

[Michał Pecio]

Hi,

I have some Etron controller (forgot which one) but I'm not using it
because it crashes ("dies") all the time under my workloads.

I suppose I could try your patches if I find a moment for it.

I'm aware of one more bug which affects my Etron: if an error occurs
on an isochronous TD, two events are generated: first the error, then
"success", even if the error is on the final TRB (the common case).
Then the "success" causes "TRB DMA not part of current TD" warning.
I suspect that all Etron chips are the same. This should be easily
reproducible by unpligging an audio/video device while streaming.

Considering how utterly broken this hardware is, I think it could be
more efficient to have a single "Etron host" quirk. These bugs are
so stupid that it seems unlikely that any of Etron quirks would ever
be reused on other hardware. Of course it should still use "general"
quirks when applicable, such as "broken streams", which it does IIRC.

Regards,
Michal

I wonder about a few things.

1. What are the exact symptoms, besides Ethernet driver errors?
Any errors from xhci_hcd? What if dynamic debug is enabled?

2. How did you determine that this is the exact cause?

3. Does it happen every time when a Link follows Setup, or only
randomly and it takes lots of control transfers to trigger it?

4. How is it even possible? As far as I see, Linux simply queues
three TRBs for a control URB. There are 255 slots in a segemnt,
so exactly 85 URBs should fit, and then back to the first slot.

Regards,
Michal

What if the link TRB is between Data and Status stage, does that
case work normally?

There are some hosts that need the 'Chain' bit set in the Link TRB,
does that work in this case?

Not all control transfers have a Data stage TRB.

The xhci driver receives a transfer event TRB (completion code is
"USB Transaction Error") when the issue is triggered.

The issue is triggered every time when a Link TRB follows a Setup
Stage TRB.

Yes, it happens every time.

The xhci driver also queues no data control transfers.

OK, I know what happened. This bug only affects SuperSpeed isochronous
endpoints. If you don't have this kind of device, you will not see it.
I checked that High-speed isochronous errors are reported correctly.

My motivation to develop a workaround for this bug has just decreased
another notch.


On the other hand, I was unable to reproduce the control transfer bug.
The exact chip I have is labeled "EtronTech EJ168A", for the record.

You are right, not all transfers have the data stage and transactions
get out of sync with segment boundaries. I modified the patch to only
print a warning instead of queuing a No-Op and then did various things
which use control transactions: setting baud rate on serial, changing
the volume on audio, starting video recording on a webcam, running
ethtool on a NIC.

The warning was printed a few times, but nothing interesting happened.
Dynamic debug was enabled on handle_tx_event() - no errors reported.

Maybe a different silicon/firmware revision, or maybe it's another
SuperSpeed-only bug, or other special conditions for it to happen?

That was just a suggestion, you should ask Mathias Nyman, I suppose.

But, again, my impression of this hardware is that it's pretty bad
and full of bugs, and they are bizarre enough to likely be unique.

No, it doesn't work. It seems to be a hardware issue.

Hi,

Thank you for testing the patch.

Do you see any "Transfer error for slot..." error message?
What is the speed of your device? high speed?
I try to downgrade my ethernet adapter to high speed and do some tests,
no errors are reported in dmesg if dynamic debug is enabled.
I think it is a super speed issue, however, it doesn't happen on the high
speed device, I am not sure. So the patch will not check the speed of the
device.

OK, thanks.
