[ 267.755777] xhci-hcd ee000000.usb: Cannot set link state. [ 267.761188] usb usb8-port1: cannot disable (err = -32) [ 267.772166] usb 8-1: USB disconnect, device number 2 But, the environment can detect connection again. I investigate this issue and found the following commit is related: 37be6676 usb: hub: Fix auto-remount of safely removed or ejected USB-3 devices The xhci-hub.c has the following code: if ((temp & PORT_PE) == 0 || (link_state > USB_SS_PORT_LS_U3)) { xhci_warn(xhci, "Cannot set link state.\n"); goto error; } And, the code above will be called by hub_set_port_link_state(..., USB_SS_PORT_LS_U3) in hub_port_disable(): /* * USB-3 does not have a similar link state as USB-2 that will avoid negotiating * a connection with a plugged-in cable but will signal the host when the cable * is unplugged. Disable remote wake and set link state to U3 for USB-3 devices */ static int hub_port_disable(struct usb_hub *hub, int port1, int set_state) { struct usb_port *port_dev = hub->ports[port1 - 1]; struct usb_device *hdev = hub->hdev; int ret = 0; if (!hub->error) { if (hub_is_superspeed(hub->hdev)) { hub_usb3_port_prepare_disable(hub, port_dev); ret = hub_set_port_link_state(hub, port_dev->portnum, USB_SS_PORT_LS_U3); The hub_port_disable() will be called by port_event(): /* * Warm reset a USB3 protocol port if it's in * SS.Inactive state. */ if (hub_port_warm_reset_required(hub, port1, portstatus)) { dev_dbg(&port_dev->dev, "do warm reset\n"); if (!udev || !(portstatus & USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION) || udev->state == USB_STATE_NOTATTACHED) { if (hub_port_reset(hub, port1, NULL, HUB_BH_RESET_TIME, true) < 0) hub_port_disable(hub, port1, 1); However, according to Figure 35 in xhci spec, the PED will be set to 0 after the usb3 root hub enters "Error" or "Disconnected" state. So, IIUC, a usb driver should not call hub_set_port_link_state() in such a case. Question 1: - Is my understanding correct?
Yes, The idea behind using hub_set_port_link_state(U3) in hub_port_disable() is for cases when device is _not_ physically unplugged, but instead user does a "eject" for a usb mass storage device which will end up calling hub_port_disable() as well. Setting it to U3 will prevent a "ejected" device from being re-enumerated and mounted one second later.
Question 2: - How do I resolve the issue? (I don't have any idea for now...)
Is there any other issue than the error messags? we could read the portstatus in hub_port_disable() and only set the port link state to U3 if the port is in currently in a suitable (U0) state. Or then just make sure xhci_hub_control() doesn't print out any warning when setting link state to U3 when PORT_PE is not set, and silence hub_port_disable() messages as well. -Mathias -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
