Hi all,
I'm on USB certification of a vendor SoC, and there's a case called
"Bus powered hub power exceeded test" in the compliance plan defined
by the usb.org. It requires an error message when a device (Max power
descriptor >100mA) is attached to an external bus powered hub.
But when I attached the bus powered hub to Linux (Ubuntu 14.04), I
found that it always reported as self powered

And I've checked the source code in drivers/usb/core/hub.c
1521 if (hdev == hdev->bus->root_hub) {
1522 if (hcd->power_budget > 0)
1523 hdev->bus_mA = hcd->power_budget;
1524 else
1525 hdev->bus_mA = full_load * maxchild;
1526 if (hdev->bus_mA >= full_load)
1527 hub->mA_per_port = full_load;
1528 else {
1529 hub->mA_per_port = hdev->bus_mA;
1530 hub->limited_power = 1;
1531 }
1532 } else if ((hubstatus & (1 << USB_DEVICE_SELF_POWERED))
== 0) {
1533 int remaining = hdev->bus_mA -
1534 hub->descriptor->bHubContrCurrent;
1535
1536 dev_dbg(hub_dev, "hub controller current
requirement: %dmA\n",
1537 hub->descriptor->bHubContrCurrent);
1538 hub->limited_power = 1;
1539
1540 if (remaining < maxchild * unit_load)
1541 dev_warn(hub_dev,
1542 "insufficient power
available "
1543 "to use all downstream
ports\n");
1544 hub->mA_per_port = unit_load; /* 7.2.1 */
1545
1546 } else { /* Self-powered external hub */
1547 /* FIXME: What about battery-powered external
hubs that
1548 * provide less current per port? */
1549 hub->mA_per_port = full_load;
1550 }
The hub->mA_per_port is always set as full_load (500mA for usb 2.0
hub) since reported as self powered hub.
So when I attach a usb device with ( 100mA < Max power descriptor <=
500mA), linux won't show error messages.
I'm wondering why the bus powered hub reported as self powered? And is
any switch to make it bus powered?
Thanks!

Rong
