[RFC PATCH] xhci: do not halt the secondary HCD

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

 



We can't halt the secondary HCD, because it's also the primary HCD,
which will cause problems if we have devices attached to the primary
HCD, like a keyboard.

We've been carrying this in our Linux-as-a-bootloader environment for a little
while now. The machines all have the same TI TUSB73x0 part, and when we kexec
the devices don't come back until a system power cycle.

I'd like some advice on an acceptable way to upstream the fix, so that the xhci
device survives kexec.
