Hi Alan, usb_udc_vbus_handler sets the udc->vbus flag as well apart from calling usb_udc_connect_control_locked(). So, removing usb_udc_vbus_handler from chip specific start callback might prevent the controller from starting. void usb_udc_vbus_handler(struct usb_gadget *gadget, bool status) { struct usb_udc *udc = gadget->udc; mutex_lock(&udc->connect_lock); if (udc) { udc->vbus = status; usb_udc_connect_control_locked(udc); Thanks, Badhri > > So a proper solution would be simply to remove the unnecessary > usb_udc_vbus_handler() call from the chipidea driver (and similarly for > the max3420_udc driver). > > Similar changes may be needed in these drivers' udc_stop routines. > > Alan Stern
