The kernel warning about the empty work on the queue is printed to the console (and journal) and then nothing. Reading/writing doesn't work (but it didn't work before the cooldown patch either). The system doesn't die (ie. networking is still going) but USB appears to be dead (though I only tested the same console being connected to different USB ports). > Did your test kernel contain 38203b8385bf6283537162bde7d499f83096471 ? No... our newest builds use kernel 5.8.18 and that commit seems to be in 5.10. But backporting that to our kernel seems like a much nicer fix than reverting the cooldown patch. I tried doing that and it is good. It doesn't make the Cisco magically work but there's no kernel warning and USB isn't dead so the console can be disconnected and re-connected and it works again. Nice. Unless you've got any tips for dealing with the Cisco's brokenness, I guess we're all good. Thanks, Lincoln
