Hi!
I have a platform with DWC3 in Dual Role mode. Currently I'm
experimenting on v5.12-rc5 with a few patches (mostly configuration)
applied [1]. I'm using Debian Unstable on the host machine and
BuildRoot with the above mentioned kernel on the target.
**So, scenario 0:
1. Run iperf3 -s on target
2. Run iperf3 -c ... -t 0 on the host
3. 0.00-10.36 sec 237 MBytes 192 Mbits/sec
receiver
**Scenario 1:
1. Now, detach USB cable, wait for several seconds, attach it back,
repeat above:
0.00-9.94 sec 209 MBytes 176 Mbits/sec receiver
Note the bandwidth drop (177 vs. 192).
(Repeating scenario 1 will give now the same result)
**Scenario 2.
1. Detach USB cable, attach a device, for example USB stick,
2. See it being enumerated and detach it.
3. Attach cable from host
4 . 0.00-19.36 sec 315 MBytes 136 Mbits/sec
receiver
Note even more bandwidth drop!
(Repeating scenario 1 keeps the same lower bandwidth)
NOTE, sometimes on this scenario after several seconds the target
simply reboots (w/o any logs [from kernel] printed)!
So, any pointers on how to debug and what can be a smoking gun here?
Ferry reported this in [2]. There are different kernel versions and
tools to establish the connection (like connman vs. none in my case).

dwc3 tracepoints should give some initial hints. Look at packets sizes
and period of transmission. From dwc3 side, I can't think of
anything we
would do to throttle the transmission, but tracepoints should tell a
clearer story.
My testing (but yes, with difference kernel and network managed by
connman) shows:
1) on cold boot eem network gadget works fine
2) after unplug or warm reboot (which is also an unplug) it's broken,
speed is lost (|12.0 Mbits/sec from 200Mb/s normally)|, packets lost,
no configuration received from dhcp, occasional reboot, only way to
fix is cold boot
3) if before unplug `connmanctl disable gadget`, on replugging and
enabling it works fine
My theory is that some HW register is disturbed on a surprise unplug,
but not reset on plug or warm boot. But on cold boot is cleared.
Maybe that can help to narrow down tracepoints?
I captured a plug after warm and after cold boot. This includes
network setup (dhcp). You can find it in [2] or directly link here:

While the above traces in boot.zip allow compare which regs not
correctly initialized on warm boot, I have now captured traces of
unplug/plug.
Here kernel is 5.10.27 (LTS), cold booted with USB cable plugged and the
eem gadget network setup (dhcp). Then trace unplug. Then trace plug.
After plug the eem connection is again broken.
This might allow figuring out what goes wrong on unplug. Traces here:
