Subject: Question about error from xhci-hcd
Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 12:48:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EAC3C5C.5000209@lwfinger.net> (raw)

Sarah,

Pardon the intrusion, but I'm trying to fix a problem for v4mp, a user of the 
rtl8192cu driver on an Alfa AWUS036NHR. I have one of the devices, and it works 
on a USB 2.0 hub, but fails with 3.0 hardware with lots of

xhci_hcd 0000:05:00.0: ERROR no room on ep ring

messages logged.

The device works with an out-of-kernel driver available from the Alfa or Realtek 
web sites, but I want to fix rtl8192cu.

What condition leads to the above message? The user's dmesg buffer has wrapped, 
thus I don't see the beginning of the failure. He is using a canned distro 
kernel, thus he cannot include any extra debugging info such as a stack dump 
when the errors occur. As he uses the compat-wireless package, I think I can 
incorporate a new copy of xhci-hcd with it, but I have not done so yet.

Thanks for any help you can give,

Larry
