There appears to be a bug in the USB host driver for the AM3517 in the 3.16 kernel. When the AM3517 board boots with a USB device plugged in the host it detects and works fines as long as it is plugged in.
The board does not detect any device that is hotplugged and the kernel message report nothing. The board that I am porting is using the USB3320 PHY connected to the USB host 1 interface. It should be noted that the same hardware worked fine using an old 2.6.30 kernel. The kernel has drastically changed since then and it appears that something broke along the way. I did notice this magical code in the old kernel: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=127841764930798&w=2 Since then the PHY code and host driver have been seperated. I am not sure that the soft reset is ever being performed. I do notice that there are remnants of the old driver as there are multiple macro defines that are never used in the driver: #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI (0xA4) #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_CONTROL_SHIFT 31 #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_PORTSEL_SHIFT 24 #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_OPSEL_SHIFT 22 #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_REGADD_SHIFT 16 #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_EXTREGADD_SHIFT 8 #define EHCI_INSNREG05_ULPI_WRDATA_SHIFT 0 Any advice as to how to address this would be greatly appreciated. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
