Hi Marek, other USB guys,
Hi!
I noticed commit dc9cdf859e11de (usb: dwc3: Add DWC3 controller driver support) was pulled into the mainline a few days ago.
Now we have two drivers with similar names.
- drivers/usb/dwc3/
- drivers/usb/host/xhci-dwc3.c
Are they the same hardware, or completely different ones?
dwc3 is the USB gadget, drivers/usb/host/xhci-dwc3 is the USB host. I believe the host part should be merged into drivers/usb/xhci-dwc3 eventually.
In my understanding, Synopsys' DWC3 is dual role core.
In Linux, both host and gadget are supported, but drivers/usb/dwc3/host.c is missing from U-Boot.
I think merging into a single directory drivers/usb/dwc3 is the right thing.
Correct. Someone would have to backport the host part of drivers/usb/dwc3 from mainline for that purpose though .
