We contacted the ASUS' BIOS engineer and try to verify this issue, for it happened on many ASUS' machines. Then they found that the system hangs in their BIOS code. The code will try to disable the USB if they found the PCI COMMAND register is not zero. That's not a correct behavior that BIOS should do, the PCI COMMAND register is not represent if the USB is disabled or not, It's a workaround they tried to fix another issue in windows long time ago, but ASUS' BIOS engineer refuse to remove that part of code. But windows will clear the PCI COMMAND register if windows is already disabled the USB. So, I try to write this quirk. > >> > The root cause of this issue is result from the the BIOS will try to >> > disable USBs which was already disabled by driver. >> > BIOS will to check the EHCI command register, if it's not zero, then > > You don't mean "EHCI command register"; you mean "the EHCI controller's > PCI COMMAND register".

Quote from ASUS, they only mentioned EHCI --------- BIOS will check EHCI command register PCI regiter offset 04h to see if USB is disabled or not. Because regiter offset 04h is not cleared, BIOS think USB is not disabled. Then BIOS will try to disabled USB, but the USB is disabled by Ubuntu already. This conflict will cause system hang. ASUS think since Ubuntu will disable USB, it also need to clear the register too. --------- > >> > off the power after enter S3, so the value in memory is not important >> > at all. >> >> System RAM is preserved in the S3 state (ACPI spec sec 7.3.4.4), so I >> don't know how to interpret this statement. Sorry for my bad wording, it's not System RAM, it's PCI COMMAND register. H/W will reset it's value after wake up. I'm not pretty sure of this part, but I can verify it later. >> >> Please include a bugzilla or problem report URL if you have one.
