Pete,
Which kernel is running?
A while back, Alan Stern and I worked out a patch for an issue that
sounds just like this one. The UHCI controller in iLO cannot meet the
timing requirements of the hub code in kernels >= 2.6.12 (I think). The
patch added some extra delay if it detected that it was our usb
controller.
The last time I checked, this patch (named as657 by Alan) hadn't yet
been applied to the vanilla sources.

I decoded the log and it seems to be an enumeration issue. It looks like
this.
First, khubd sets up at a device normally (I start at an arbitrary point
in the cycle; in this case we're setting port 2 and address 19).

So far so good, we get the strings and HID gets its reports, sets idle,
etc. It also submits interrupt URB(s).

At this point, port 2 is settled completely, so khubd turns its
attention to port 1, and does exactly the same thing.

All is done, we return to port #2:
> f502cf40 3807266405 S Ci:001:00 s a3 00 0000 0002 0004 4 <
type = 0xa3 = USB_DIR_IN|USB_RT_PORT
request = USB_REQ_GET_STATUS
value = 0
index = 2
But the iLO (well, root hub of UHCI) returns a change of status!
> f502cf40 3807266412 C Ci:001:00 0 4 = 03010100
wPortStatus = 0103
wPortChange = 0001 { USB_PORT_STAT_C_CONNECTION }
Since there was a change, we clear the change:
> f502cf40 3807266417 S Co:001:00 s 23 01 0010 0002 0000 0
type = 0x23 = USB_TYPE_CLASS|USB_RECIP_OTHER = USB_RT_PORT request =
0x01 = USB_CLEAR_FEATURE value = 0x10 = 16 = USB_PORT_FEAT_C_CONNECTION
index = 2 = port#2
> f502cf40 3807266422 C Co:001:00 0 0
The device #19 on the port #2 collapses immediately:
> f6cef6c0 3807267424 C Ii:019:01 -108 0
Then we set it again, and the cycle continues indefinitely.
The responsible code is very simple and was with us for a long time:
static void hub_events(void)
{
u16 portstatus;
u16 portchange;
hub_port_status(hub, i, &portstatus, &portchange);
if (portchange & USB_PORT_STAT_C_CONNECTION) {
clear_port_feature(hdev, i, USB_PORT_FEAT_C_CONNECTION);
connect_change = 1;
}
}
We cannot ignore the connection change (Although... Alan, any
opinions?). So, there's not much we can do about it. I think it's
something which HP people need to look into.
I have no idea what this phantom change is. AFAIK, the root hub
circuitry is not a part of iLO. So, the only chance why this would
happen is for iLO chip actually to blip the D+/D- lines in such a way
that UHCI's hub detects a connection change. Right, Chris?
Dario, did you try to run Windows on that box? And yes, I mean that very
box, not some other system. It's very possible that something is not
good with your power supply or the motherboard.
