Most issues like this are distro-agnostic.

By disabling UAS, the speed should be slower.

Well, that’s the part I tried to understand, but apparently I offended
him/her somehow =/

Ideally we should solve this without having to disable UAS completely.

A full dmesg when this issue happens will be really helpful.

[Bug 1742318] Re: USB-Storage Quirk for 174c:1356

[Johannes Choo]

Hi, I am facing a related bug. I am using an SSD enclosure utilizing the
ASM1352R controller as well. This controller supports RAID-0, RAID-1 and
other configurations with up to two SSDs, and I'm currently using it
with only one SSD; the product advertises as ASM1352R-Safe in this
configuration, which is also what it advertises as when in RAID-1. I am
running Debian buster.

The advertised product IDs and serial, etc. are all different for me.
Nevertheless, the bug still remains, and the fix proposed by OP works.

OP mentioned "With/without UAS the issue persisted". I suspect that OP
might be confused and does not realize that the fix he proposes is
responsible for the message "UAS is blacklisted for this device, using
usb-storage instead"; the quirk he used disables UAS support from the
kernel side.

Nevertheless, fix OP proposes is not a universal fix. ASMedia, reputable
hardware manufacturer that it is, manufactures multiple chips with
different architectures and capabilities under the same
vendorId:productId identifier. Blacklisting this identifier will
blacklist all its controllers, which may not exactly be a bad thing as
multiple other models have issues with UAS under Linux as well.

Inspection of latest upstream source seems that it is not handled
upstream, though I have not tried running it.

I'd be happy to contribute however I can but I have my hands tied if you
need more info: I'm running Debian buster, and I'm running the
controller with only one SSD. Nevertheless, it seems to me that this is
an upstream bug and not Ubuntu-kernel specific.

Adding a quirk for the device is easy. But since you stated that
"With/without UAS the issue persisted", we need full dmesg to fully
understand on the underlying problem.

Forget it. You don't want to know someone has an issue with the kernel,
fine. Delete/close bug then.

Another, more specific source code would be unusual_devs.h. Manually
specified ASMedia devices:

/* Reported by Oliver Neukum  */
UNUSUAL_DEV(  0x174c, 0x55aa, 0x0100, 0x0100,
"ASMedia",
"AS2105",
USB_SC_DEVICE, USB_PR_DEVICE, NULL,
US_FL_NEEDS_CAP16)...

It may be more appropriate to add this device in either or both places.
At the moment, I have only tested quirk US_FL_IGNORE_UAS (u) (which
worked for an install).

I checked the usb/core/quirks.c and other various source code under
driver/usb/storage, but only one file sticks out as targeting the
vendor, and it doesn't have code related to this device.


https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/usb/storage/uas-detect.h?h=v4.15-rc7

/*
 * ASMedia has a number of usb3 to sata bridge chips, at the time of
 * this writing the following versions exist:
 * ASM1051 - no uas support version
 * ASM1051 - with broken (*) uas support
 * ASM1053 - with working uas support, but problems with large xfers
 * ASM1153 - with working uas support
 *
 * Devices with these chips re-use a number of device-ids over the
 * entire line, so the device-id is useless to determine if we're
 * dealing with an ASM1051 (which we want to avoid).
 *
 * The ASM1153 can be identified by config.MaxPower == 0,
 * where as the ASM105x models have config.MaxPower == 36.
 *
 * Differentiating between the ASM1053 and ASM1051 is trickier, when
 * connected over USB-3 we can look at the number of streams supported,
 * ASM1051 supports 32 streams, where as early ASM1053 versions support
 * 16 streams, newer ASM1053-s also support 32 streams, but have a
 * different prod-id.
 *
 * (*) ASM1051 chips do work with UAS with some disks (with the
 * US_FL_NO_REPORT_OPCODES quirk), but are broken with other disks
 */
if (le16_to_cpu(udev->descriptor.idVendor) == 0x174c &&
(le16_to_cpu(udev->descriptor.idProduct) == 0x5106 ||
 le16_to_cpu(udev->descriptor.idProduct) == 0x55aa)) {
if (udev->actconfig->desc.bMaxPower == 0) {
/* ASM1153, do nothing */
} else if (udev->speed < USB_SPEED_SUPER) {
/* No streams info, assume ASM1051 */
flags |= US_FL_IGNORE_UAS;
} else if (usb_ss_max_streams([1]->ss_ep_comp) == 32) {
/* Possibly an ASM1051, disable uas */
flags |= US_FL_IGNORE_UAS;
} else {
/* ASM1053, these have issues with large transfers */
flags |= US_FL_MAX_SECTORS_240;
}
}

It seems to be a case of simply adding this device into the routine.

I am not aware of any method to use an upstream kernel during a Live
CD/DVD/USB to install Ubuntu/Kubuntu. I have only noticed it happening
during an install.

[Joseph Salisbury]

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v4.15 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as
"Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

  A usb-storage quirk is needed for the Mediasonic ProRaid 2 Bay 2.5' SATA
  HDD / SSD Enclosure - USB 3.1 Gen-II Type-C (HUR6-SU31) for reliable use
  in Ubuntu/Kubuntu 14-17.10. Using quirk 'u' appears to have fixed
  disconnect issues during install and use.
