The warning is about memory alignment to 32 bit addresses, not about page alignment. This is a typical ARM restriction. Maybe we need to make sure in mt76 that the DMA buffer needs to be aligned.

This is how usb_sg_init() submit urbs for sg_tablesize = 0 controllers. So either are there are some requirement on urb->sg mapped via dma_map_page() (which mt76usb does not meet) not needed for urb->transfer_buffer mapped via dma_map_single() or there is something wrong in dwc2 with sg and this driver will not work with urb_sg_init() as well. I don't have hardware to investigate this and don't want to bother you with more patches. > > > Anyway i tested the following patch combinations against next with the same results as 1,2,3 (no wifi, alignment warning): > > > 1,3 > > > 1,2,3,4 > > > > I noticed on my setup that patch 4 can cause troubles, but still > > device is workable here on my PC machines. > > > > > > > Btw i can confirm a regression was introduced after 4.19, because in 4.19 there was no firmware timeout but even no working wifi: > > > > > > > > You ment 'no working wifi' or 'working wifi'? > > > > > > Wifi is broken in 4.19, 4.20, 5.0 and next. It only worked with Lorenzo's SG avoid patches so far. Btw the regression (firmware timeout) started in 4.20.

I was talking about the branches not the exact tags. I tested 4.19.23 without luck. In github link you provided someone report mt76x0u working on 4.19 with dwc_otg with disabled FIQ irq, so perhaps this is due to bug in dwc2 fixed in -next but not backported to 4.19. > Many thanks anyway Thanks for testing!
