For Synopsys DWC31 2.00a and earlier versions, every isochronous
interval the BEI(Block Event Interrupt) flag is set for all except
the last Isoch TRB in a URB, host controller consumes the event
TRBs in the event ring, once the event ring is full, it will not
generate an interrupt and will stop all data transmission and command
execution.
To avoid the problem of event ring full, the XHCI-AVOID-BEI quirk is
introduced. Currently, the XHCI-AVOID-BEI quirk has been applied to all
Intel xHCI controllers, see commit '227a4fd801c8 ("USB: xhci: apply
XHCI-AVOID-BEI quirk to all Intel xHCI controllers")'.
For Linux system, each event ring consists of one or more event ring
segments and each segment is 4 KB that contains 256 TRBs. It seems that
the TRBs on the event ring are sufficient and the event ring will not be
full. In real application, if it does happen, event ring is full, host
controller no interrupt causes the driver to timeout.
However, applying XHCI-AVOID-BEI quirk will also bring power consumption
issues. We can consider the application scenarios of the product to decide
whether to enable it. Therefore, we add the enable XHCI-AVOID-BEI quirk
through dts configuration to make it more flexible.
