A seperate USB-serial adapter is for now the best solution. From my
experiences the device is usable after all endpoints have been
enumerated. From staring at my logs I can see the following:

Sep 28 08:51:49 joeniks64 kernel: [314603.970550] usb 1-1.1: new full
speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 18 
Sep 28 08:51:49 joeniks64 kernel: [314604.104357] usb 1-1.1:
configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice 
Sep 28 08:51:49 joeniks64 kernel: [314604.110191] cdc_acm 1-1.1:1.0: No
union descriptor, testing for castrated device 
Sep 28 08:51:49 joeniks64 kernel: [314604.110237] cdc_acm 1-1.1:1.0:
ttyACM0: USB ACM device 

/dev/ttyACM0 is available at this point but not approachable yet.
I was too soon opening the serial port, then I get this warning:

Sep 28 08:51:59 joeniks64 kernel: [314613.890162] tty_port_close_start:
tty->count = 1 port count = 0. 

Now the debug interface is becoming available:

Sep 28 08:51:59 joeniks64 kernel: [314614.160181] generic-usb
0003:0451:F432.000A: timeout initializing reports 
Sep 28 08:51:59 joeniks64 kernel: [314614.160428] generic-usb
0003:0451:F432.000A: hiddev96,hidraw2: USB HID v1.01 Device [Texas
Instruments Texas Instruments MSP-FET430UIF] on
usb-0000:00:02.1-1.1/input1

After this point the serial interface is working for me until I close
the port, then I have to replug. The entire operation takes about 10
seconds.

Regards,

Hans

Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances
and start using them to simplify application deployment and
accelerate your shift to cloud computing.
