usb ports shuts down after kernel loads

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm experiencing problem with USB ports - they shuts down after kernel
loads - and I've found partial solution - few times switching auto/on
on power control of xHCI controller. I want to figure out what is
wrong with that and where I can change something to resolve this
properly. Where I can see some messages from USB drivers, or turn on
more verbose log mode for kernel so I can see what happens just before
ports start working? Below are more details.

Bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74071

Symptoms:
USB ports stop working (power off) just after boot loader loads
kernel. They don't turn on even after 10 minuts after boot.
Undeterminable count of switching value of xHCI controlller
power/control in /sys to "on" and "auto" and back again and waiting
few seconds turns USB ports ON until reboot.

Observations:
- Is not HW problem (Windows works, before boot (in BIOS) works as well)
- With acpi=off USB ports do not shuts down.
- With usbcore.autosuspend=-1 nothing changes.
- Is not distro specific (same behavior in OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian,
different versions - tried with USB live stick)
- Is not BIOS/EFI specific, neither arch i686/amd64 - each combination
behaves the same
- No specific message in dmesg about error with USB
- After switching /sys/bus/pci/devices/_xHCI controller
address_/power/control to auto, power on USB starts turning on and off
(cca in 0.25s intervals). After undetermined count of switches from
"auto" to "on" and back and waiting up to 10 seconds in every "auto"
state, power stabilizes and driver recognizes connected devices (not
before even for short on power states).

HW:
Lenovo ThinkPad Twist 3347-26G, BIOS v1.65, Core i5-3317U Ivy Bridge
(2x USB3.0 ports, ps2 laptop trackpoing, internal USB webcam, synaptic
touchpad, keyboard)
USB devices - msi usb2.0 hub -> rapoo keyboard, zelman optical mouse
(same even for directly connected - no problem in HW)

Running OS: Ubuntu 14.04, UEFI boot (for testing)

Thank you very much
Lukas Dolezal
