I tried it with hub and without. Both times lots of resets. With the hub I get resets right from the start. Without the hub there are very few resets at the beginning but after some time (like 30 min or so) they are coming in shorter cycles. With the hub I've seen these 3 types of errors: usb-storage: Command READ_10 (10 bytes) usb-storage: 28 00 00 0d 39 3f 00 00 80 00 usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x60bf L 65536 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL 10 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk command transfer result=0 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist: xfer 65536 bytes, 6 entries usb-storage: Status code -121; transferred 53248/65536 usb-storage: -- short read transfer usb-storage: Bulk data transfer result 0x1 usb-storage: Attempting to get CSW... usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes usb-storage: Status code -75; transferred 0/13 usb-storage: -- babble usb-storage: Bulk status result = 3 usb-storage: -- transport indicates error, resetting usb 1-4.4: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 hub 1-4:1.0: state 5 ports 4 chg 0000 evt 0010 usb-storage: usb_reset_device returns 0 usb-storage: scsi cmd done, result=0x70000 usb-storage: *** thread sleeping. usb-storage: Command READ_10 (10 bytes) usb-storage: 28 00 00 14 06 bf 00 00 80 00 usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x6e7f L 65536 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL 10 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk command transfer result=0 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist: xfer 65536 bytes, 3 entries usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 65536/65536 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk data transfer result 0x0 usb-storage: Attempting to get CSW... usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 13/13 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk status result = 0 usb-storage: Bulk Status S 0x43425355 T 0x6e7f R 65536 Stat 0x80 usb-storage: Bulk logical error usb-storage: -- transport indicates error, resetting usb 1-4.4: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 usb-storage: usb_reset_device returns 0 usb-storage: scsi cmd done, result=0x70000 usb-storage: *** thread sleeping. usb-storage: Command READ_10 (10 bytes) usb-storage: 28 00 00 18 24 bf 00 00 80 00 usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x76cc L 65536 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL 10 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk command transfer result=0 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist: xfer 65536 bytes, 5 entries usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 65536/65536 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk data transfer result 0x0 usb-storage: Attempting to get CSW... usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 0/13 usb-storage: -- short transfer usb-storage: Received 0-length CSW; retrying... usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes usb-storage: command_abort called usb-storage: usb_stor_stop_transport called usb-storage: -- cancelling URB usb-storage: Status code -104; transferred 0/13 usb-storage: -- transfer cancelled usb-storage: Bulk status result = 4 usb-storage: -- command was aborted usb 1-4.4: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 usb-storage: usb_reset_device returns 0 usb-storage: scsi command aborted usb-storage: *** thread sleeping. > > and the second one: > > > > usb-storage: Command WRITE_10 (10 bytes) > > usb-storage: 2a 00 0e 80 00 6f 00 00 08 00 > > usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x2d65 L 4096 F 0 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL > > 10 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes > > usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 > > usb-storage: 00 06 fc 02 27 00 00 08 00 > > usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x2dc0 L 4096 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 > > CL 10 > > This looks suspicious right here. Part of the log is missing. Did you > take this from dmesg output or did it come from a file written by syslogd? This is from messages written by syslog. It seems like usb-storage is filling the kernel log buffer faster that syslogd can read. Syslogd constantly uses about 10% cpu on the machine and I still often see garbled log entries. This must be one of those. Here is a log snippet thats looking better: usb-storage: *** thread awakened. usb-storage: Command READ_10 (10 bytes) usb-storage: 28 00 00 00 02 3f 00 00 80 00 usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0xcbe6 L 65536 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL 10 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 usb-storage: -- transfer complete usb-storage: Bulk command transfer result=0 usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist: xfer 65536 bytes, 16 entries usb-storage: Status code -121; transferred 20480/65536 usb-storage: -- short read transfer usb-storage: Bulk data transfer result 0x1 usb-storage: Attempting to get CSW... usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes usb-storage: Status code -75; transferred 0/13 usb-storage: -- babble usb-storage: Bulk status result = 3 usb-storage: -- transport indicates error, resetting ehci_hcd 0000:00:08.3: port 4 high speed ehci_hcd 0000:00:08.3: GetStatus port 4 status 001005 POWER sig=se0 PE CONNECT usb 1-4: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6 ehci_hcd 0000:00:08.3: port 4 high speed ehci_hcd 0000:00:08.3: GetStatus port 4 status 001005 POWER sig=se0 PE CONNECT usb-storage: usb_reset_device returns 0 usb-storage: scsi cmd done, result=0x70000 usb-storage: *** thread sleeping.
