[U-Boot] USB port doesn't work on the Olimex A64 OLinuXino board
Hi, I'm trying to build an u-boot image for the Olimex A64 board. Everything builds fine (ATF and u-boot) but when I boot the board with the image, the USB port doesn't receive power. I've an USB meter connected and it never receives power. I've tried with HEAD, 2019.10-rc3 and 2019.07. Nothing works.
However, with an Armbian image the USB port receives power and u-boot see the devices. There is something which Armbian has which is missing in the default u-boot code or config.
Any idea?.

Is board not booting because of unpower or USB not receiving anything in U-Boot proper? would be please elaborate and paste the log if any?

The problem is only with the USB port. I'm using an USB power meter to discard a problem in the communication with the USB devices. It has a LED which only requires GND and +5V to work. So, the firmware is not enabling the USB ports. U-boot boots fine but the USB doesn't even receive power.
Armbian is using 2018.05 and with their version of u-boot, the USB works fine. IIRC, a year ago I was using the same version of u-boot with OpenBSD and an USB HDD connected without problems.
