so what is the state of this with ubuntu server 20.20 ? I added “dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=peripheral“ to /boot/firmware/usercfg.txt but also never seeing the USB-C ethernet show up when connected to my Ubuntu 18.04 laptop. Then again I might be missing the equivalent of “modules-load=dwc2” as noted at https://www.hardill.me.uk/wordpress/2019/11/02/pi4-usb-c-gadget/
Note when connecting to my iPad Pro the pi never even boots, I suspect because it is not in the low power mode which apparently the steps from the above article configure in rasbian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-raspi2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1861070 Title: Raspberry Pi 4B: USB OTG is not working Status in linux-raspi package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-raspi2 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux-raspi2 source package in Eoan: Fix Released Status in linux-raspi source package in Focal: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] On the RPI4B board, the usb-c power port could also work as a USB OTG mode, but we set the dwc2 driver to the host mode unconditionally, now set it to dual_role mode, then it could work in host/otg/peripheal mode. [Fix] Set USB_DWC2_DUAL_ROLE=y, USB_DWC2_HOST=n [Test Case] set the dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=[otg|peripheral] in the config.txt, and isnmod the g_ether or g_cdc, on the host machine, we could see RPI4B work as a usb device. Because physical port limitation, could test dr_mode=host. [Regression Risk] Low, our eoan kernel choose dwc_otg driver for this port by default, very very few users will choose dwc2 driver, and the dwc2 driver is not enabled by default in our kernel. And bug reporter and I already tested that the peripheral mode works after this change. I am using Raspberry Pi 4B (4GB) and want to make use of the OTG functionality (g_ether). I cross checked with Raspbian to make sure it is not a hardware issue.
