Dear Jim Lin,
In message 4B9C9637D5087840A465BDCB251780E9E2D6EDA3EB@HKMAIL02.nvidia.com you wrote:
Add support for command line "usb reset" or "usb start" to initialize , "usb stop" to stop multiple USB controllers at once. Other commands like "usb tree" also support multiple controllers.
Why would this be needed?
U-Boot is not multi-tasking, so you can always access only a single USB device at a time ayway. And it is a decoumented design principle that U-Boot must not initialize any devices it does not use itself.
So why?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
