on Amlogic Meson GXL we have the following IP blocks:
- 2x USB2 PHYs, some external component has to tell them which mode
(host/device) they should operate in
- there is an additional (1x) USB3 PHY with built-in OTG detection logic
on Amlogic Meson GXL it could work like this:
USB2 and USB3 phy0 can be passed to the root-hub. Additionally the
USB2 phy0 could be passed to the USB3 PHY. The USB3 PHY would then
tell the USB2 PHY in which mode it should operate.
please note that device mode and OTG support on Amlogic Meson GXL is
more complicated, as it uses dwc2 and dwc3 controllers in combination:
- dwc3 is reponsible for host-only mode
- dwc2 is responsible for device-only mode
- OTG detection is done by the USB3 PHY
would you mind sharing a short overview of host/device/OTG support
works on Mediatek SoCs? I assume that the Amlogic Meson GXL
implementation is quite special, so comparing this with another
implementation (for example the Mediatek one) may help spotting
potential issues.
