The commit 22ceac191211 ("xhci: Increase reset timeout for Renesas 720201 host.")
intentionally increased the timeout to 10 seconds as that host might take 9
seconds to complete reset. This was done almost 10 years ago so I don't know
if it really is an issue anymore.
Anyways, your patch might break Renesas 72021 instead of fixing it.
I agree that busylooping up to 10 seconds with interrupts disabled doesn't make sense.
Lets see if there is another solution for your case.
- Does a "guard interval" after writing the reset help?
For example Intel xHCI needs 1ms before touching xHC after writing the reset bit
- Is it the CNR bit or the RESET bit that fails? could be just stuck CNR bit?
- we only disable local interrupts when xhci_reset() is called from xhci_stop(),
and sometimes from xhci_shutdown() and xhci_resume() if some conditions are met.
Have you identified which one is the problematic case?
I think we halt the host in the above case first, meaning there should be no
xHC interrupts when xhci_reset() is called. So if we could guarantee xhci interrupt
isn't handled on this cpu, maybe we could somehow enable local interrupt after
halting the host?
haven't really thought this true yet, but something like this could e investigated:
spin_lock_irqsave()
xhci_halt()
< enable interrupts, magically turn spin_lock_irqsave() to just keeping spin lock>
xhci_reset()
spin_unlock()
