Subject: Questions about "usb usb8-port1: cannot disable (err = -32)"

Hi,

My environment (R-Car H3) outputs the following error when I disconnected
a usb 3.0 SSD device from the xhci host controller.

[  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.

I like the second idea.  If xhci_hub_control() returned -ENODEV when
asked to set the USB_PORT_FEAT_LINK_STATE feature to U3 and PORT_PE
was clear, then hub_port_disable() wouldn't complain.


Sounds like a plan, I'll submit it after rc1
