Re: xhci-ring: "needs XHCI_TRUST_TX_LENGTH quirk" in kernel log

Hello,

Thanks, this patch solves the issue, as one would expect.

However I'm under the impression that the underlying problem is only in the Event TRBs that arrive after the Event TRB of COMP_SHORT_PACKET type. In other words, the quirky behavior is only when the xHC flushes the Data TRBs that are left after the short packet has arrived, and sends faulty Event TRBs on their behalf.

So maybe ignore any Event TRB on behalf of a TD for which a COMP_SHORT_PACKET has been received? I mean, what information could it possibly contain?

This would also have solved the "Event TRB with no TDs queued" issue, just in a more generalized manner.

Regards,
   Eli

Hello,

Connecting a custom designed (on FPGA) USB 3.0 device to a Renesas uPD720202 (1912:0015) and kernel v5.3.0, I get a lot of messages in the kernel log, while transmitting data at a high bandwidth through a BULK IN endpoint:

handle_tx_event: 36590 callbacks suppressed
xhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: WARN Successful completion on short TX for slot 1 ep 18: needs XHCI_TRUST_TX_LENGTH quirk?
(last message repeated several times)

The driver in charge, as reported by lspci, is xhci_hcd.

Probably relevant details:

* The buffer size of the USB transactions is 32 kiB and up (with libusb). With e.g. 16 kiB buffers these log messages don't appear. * The device produces short packets occasionally. When only full-length packets are sent, these log messages don't appear. * Other than these log messages, everything works fine. In particular, there are no errors in the data exchange in either situation. * This problem doesn't happen when running the same test on an Intel B150 chipset’s USB 3.0 xHCI controller (8086:a12f).

I don't really know what this warning means, but this whole thing kind-of reminds the "WARN Event TRB for slot x ep y with no TDs queued" issue that was solved recently. Just a wild guess.


It just means that we got an event from the xHC host saying the transfer was completed with completion code "Success" even if we didn't get as many bytes as was requested.
Driver is expecting a completion code of Short Packet.

Any idea how this can be fixed?

You could give it a try and see if everything works normally.

But this quirk is now quite common.
Could make sense to get rid of it completely and just handle this case as default driver behavior.
