Hi all,

I am searching for HW that supports both USB host & USB device/gadget mode, on the same USB port, capable of switching between these modes at runtime.

Preferably supported in upstream kernel.

I'm doing a very simple test on our (formerly known as Theobroma Systems) RK3399 Puma with Haikou devkit and it seems to work fine (insert USB stick into microUSB, detect the stick was connected, remove USB stick, loop microUSB to USB, configure as ACM, send test123test123test one way and then the other) as I have not commented out the test for our internal releases :)

I believe that our RK3588 Tiger with Haikou devkit also supports it (same test) but I am not the one who upstreamed nor tested that part (and it doesn't work on our devices in peripheral mode on Rockchip BSP kernel 5.10/6.1).

I don't think we do anything crazy here on the HW level, so I would say anything based on RK3399 and RK3588(S) which advertises an USB OTG port should be able to work. For RK3588(S) maybe check if it's on USB-C, as I am not entirely sure whether we (upstream kernel) support FUSB302 (used in the reference design from Rockchip I believe, so most manufacturers do use them to limit risks) USB-C connector for OTG just yet (about to though if I remember correctly). Maybe have a look on the side of RK356x (RK3566/RK3568) as well, I've seen a few with ROCKUSB enabled in U-Boot, which means OTG (at least in peripheral mode) is supported in U-Boot.

For reference, this is the test I run: """ #!/bin/sh # Change UDC environment variable according to USB controller connected to USB OTG port

Once run, connect a USB stick to the port, it should be detected.
