I'm sorry but I didn't understand your comment about "it will do gadget
connect and disconnect in its diff states"

I am reading the OTG v2.0 specification and loc_conn is always true when
b_peripheral or a_peripheral is true and false otherwise.

loc_conn is just an internal state variable and it corresponds to our gadget_start/stop() state.

As per 7.4.2.3
"loc_conn
The “local connect” (loc_conn) variable is TRUE when the local device has signaled that it is connected to
the bus. This variable is FALSE when the local device has signaled that it is disconnected from the bus"

Can you please point me in the specification if there is any place where loc_conn
is false and b_peripheral/a_peripheral is true?

cheers,
