You're right, it was in the back of my mind, but I didn't state it explicitly for the benefit of linux-usb readers. > So how likely is it that you are attempting to read from the xhci BAR > window while a config space access is in progress? Any way to > instrument this in your driver? I logged config space accesses here: https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg602832.html IIRC, the config space accesses are generated by the AER ISR. So disabling the AER driver should guarantee that no config space accesses are occurring when the drive is unplugged. Regards.
