USB 3.0 spec requires hub to reset device while

Resetting only when hub is USB 3.0 fixes it.

It would be good to include as many details about the faulty hardware
in
the commit message as possible, so that when someone else runs into
this, they would have all that information available.

Should this condition be "all which are lower than superspeed"
instead ,
so when the next generation of USB comes, this problem won't trigger
?

What does Linux do btw ?

As of now Linux checks if the hub is superspeed
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/usb/core/hub.c#L2859

which is
   return hdev->descriptor.bDeviceProtocol == USB_HUB_PR_SS; //
USB_HUB_PR_SS = 3

This holds true for newer SuperSpeedPlus hubs as well.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/usb/core/hub.h#L155

We can change the check to be bDeviceProtocol > 2 but who knows if
things change in the newer version of spec.
I am open to suggestions.

Please just include the ^ in the commit description. Use link to
git.kernel.org , not some mirror . This is extremely useful
information and, well, you already wrote the V2 commit message
addition in this answer.

Shantur, if that would be easier or quicker for you, I can write
a quite detailed patch description for you, in exchange for a
"Helped-by" tag in the v2 patch submission. :)

That would be really kind of you Dragan.

Sure, I'll write the summary and send it over.

I am down with the flu so that would really help me as my brain is
working at 15% capacity.

Oh, I'm really sorry to hear that. :(  I hope you'll get better
soon, and I know very well what's it like;  I've also been sick
recently, as a result of some kind of flu that unfortunately found
its way into my lungs, and it took me about a month to get back
to about 90% of my usual mental capacity.  I'm still not back to
exactly 100%. :/

I really hope you'll recover much faster.

I hope you're feeling better.

Below are the patch subject and description that I prepared for you,
please have a look.

[PATCH v2] common: usb-hub: Reset USB 3.0 hubs only

Additional testing of the changes introduced in commit 33e06dcbe57a
("common:
usb-hub: Reset hub port before scanning") revealed that some USB 3.0
flash

I think it was a USB 2.0 drive that didn't work on the USB 2.0 port.

drives didn't work in U-Boot on some Allwinner SoCs that support USB 2.0
only.
More precisely, some tested USB 3.0 flash drives failed to be detected
and
work on an OrangePi Zero 3 with Allwinner H616 SoC, which supports USB
2.0
only, while the same USB flash drives worked just fine on a Pine64 H64
with
Allwinner H6 SoC, which supports both USB 2.0 and 3.0.

Resetting USB 3.0 hubs only has been tested to work as expected,
resolving
the previous issues on the Allwinner H616, while not introducing any new
issues on other Allwinner SoCs.  Thus, let's fix it that way.

According to the USB 3.0 specification, resetting a USB 3.0 port is
required
when an attached USB device transitions between different states, such
as
when it resumes from suspend.  Though, the Linux kernel performs
additional
USB 3.0 port resets upon initial USB device attachment, presumably to
ensure
proper state of the USB 3.0 hub port and proper USB mode negotiation
during
the initial USB device attachment and enumeration.

Such USB port resets don't seem to exist for USB 2.0 hubs, according the
USB
2.0 specification.  The resets seem to be added to the USB 3.0
specification
as part of the port and device mode negotiation.

The Linux kernel also resets USB 3.0 (i.e. SuperSpeed) hubs only, as
visible
in file drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the kernel source, line 2859. This
check
also applies to newer SuperSpeed Plus (USB 3.1 or 3.2) hubs as well,
which
hopefully makes it future proof.

Is this description acceptable to you Marek.

Please send a V2 patch . If possible, include the device information
as reported by Andre, esp. which USB stick triggered it, including USB
IDs, this is important for future reference and in case someone has
similar failure.

If Andre can supply the USB IDs, I'm willing to help Shantur by
adjusting the wording of the patch description to include them.

Please don't use "in the kernel source, line 2859", considering the
rate of change of the Linux kernel, it is best to also include exact
commit ID as of which this is a line 2859 and spell out this is
referring to Linux kernel.

Good point.  I'm willing to adjust the wording.
