Re: [BUG]odroid-c2 does not hotplug usb-devices

Hi Martin,
I did a lot of googling this weekend and found some interesting problems with odroid-c2.
1. booting from emmc stop after u-boot 2020.04 (this hits me also) 2. usb did not work with newer kernels.
This gaves me the idea that something in the configuration of the s905 soc is not ok.
here: https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/12330-balbes150-le-images-with-kodi-19-for... and here: https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2020-November/thread.html
in https://groups.io/g/u-boot-amlogic/topic/77816805#661 some problems in pinctrl related to booting from emmc is discussed.
i found that commit dd5f2351e99aad8fcbedbc1305b8b51b09952336 of u-boot rendered the situation for odroid-c2 bad.
i gave the following patch on Top of commit ee1e04558ff8c8ed812b986939447f129bb0b0bb of u-boot a try ad it fixes the odroid-c2 boot issue.

So with the latest u-boot and the kernel from https://github.com/chewitt/linux/tree/amlogic-5.10.y commit 725fc8df7898102f9031ba2075f763884ffa3ee8 everything is working again. USB does hotplugging as expected.
For me this make it work again. But i`m sorry, I don´t know what would be a real fix.

background info: the Amlogic Meson GXBB SoC on your Odroid-C2 board uses a "dwc2" USB 2.0 controller. I don't have any GXBB based board, but my Odroid-C1+ uses the same controller and overall setup. There I can reproduce the problem you are seeing.
I am not sure which part of the "infrastructure" (on-board 4-port USB hub, dwc2 controller, ...) is causing this issue. My suggestion is to involve the linux-usb mailing list and dwc2 driver maintainer:
- Minas Harutyunyan hminas@synopsys.com (dwc2 driver maintainer)

In the past they provided information and helped to debug issues. Please also keep me Cc'ed so I can help with any Amlogic specific questions, drivers, etc.

The above patch fixes booting from emmc for me. Using a newer uboot then 2020.04 is mandatory for using the above mentioned kernel. The usb issue, i had with earlier kernels from the above mentioned tree.
Hope that clearifies it. I wanted to run the newest kernel on my system which boots from emmc. I think these issues are probaly independant but in my system they did interfere.

perhaps this gives an idea of what was wrong. But anyhow for me the issues with U-boot and usb hotplug is solved so far. For me this is even more i understand.

I was also looking into this issue so I made some changes in the phy driver to resolve the issue. Plz share your thoughts on the changes below.

Hi Martin,
i think the the u-boot fix made the new u-boot for me usable. Because i boot from emmc it fixes a long standing problem since 2020.04 in not booting from emmc. The latest uboot, booting from emmc before the fix was 2020.04, but this old uboot does not funktion well (hotpluging and others) with newer kernel (5.8.10 was the latest i new of). Therefore the latest Uboot initialized the kernel in a way that new kernels work again.
I haven't run kernel in between, with newer uboots like 2020.07 or 2020.10, because they din't boot from emmc.
so if the uboot patch is the real reason, i don't think.
best regrads
Otto

I had a feeling that USB_OTG reset will be shared between both the phy controller.
indeed, the USB_OTG reset is shared
Odroid C2 reset controller have additional RESET_USB_DDR_[0,3] reset, but Odroid C1 dose not have this feature.
have you found where the patched Amlogic kernel/u-boot use these reset lines? if they need to be managed by us then we probably have a bug, because we're not currently using these anywhere
Next time I will try to do more testing on both the devices C1/C2. before sending some code for review or testing.
I am happy about everyone who helps fixing the USB hotplug issue! it's a tricky issue where I don't even know if the USB PHY, dwc2 controller or something else is the culprit so any help is appreciated :)
Ok,
Best regards, Martin
