The file I'm trying to copy is a msdn iso of about 1.7G ( don't know if this matters as I've tried with a dd if=/dev/urandom of=/root/en bs=1024 count=2GB ) just a reminder .. my laptop is a vaio vpcf13m1e ( which seems to work every time ) .. the one with the problems is an asrock 152d .. Both seem to share the usb3 root hub chipset ( a nec uPD720200 ) the tests are done using a gembird usb3 hub ( which reports idVendor=2109, idProduct=0810 VIA Labs, Inc. 4-Port USB 3.0 HUB .. idVendor=2109, idProduct=3431 .. USB2.0 Hub ) I have another hub, a manhattan ( which reports the same 2 stuff at lsusb ) sda3 is my local drive in the asrock ( a 2.5" normal hdd which does its job just fine for > 1 year now 24/7 ) 1) Copy to/from the drive directly from/to my laptop 2 times ( in each dirrection ) WORKS 2) Copy to/from and from/to 1 drive in/through the hub on my laptop 2 times ( in each dirrection ). WORKS 3) Copy to/from the drive directly from/to the asrock 2 times ( in each dirrection ) WORKS 4) Copy to/from and from/to 1 drive in/through the hub on my asrock 2 times ( in each dirrection ). I have /dev/sdb1 mounted in /media/sdg1 .. (sdg because I usually have more drives) cp /media/sdg1/en2 ~/en2 try1 copy from sdb1 to sda3 .. seems to succeed ?! cp didn't say anything .. but /var/log/messages shows some stuff try2 copy from sdb1 to sda3 .. seems to succeed ?! cp didn't say anything .. just as above cp ~/en2 /media/sdg1/en2 try3 copy from sda3 to sdb1 .. seems to succeed .. cp didn't say anything .. nor anything weird in /var/log/messages try4 .. just plugging in the drive caused some messages .. didn't have the cat on 9u started though and couldn't reproduce it .. try5 copy from sda3 to sdb1 .. seems to succeed .. cp didn't say anything .. nor anything weird in /var/log/messages copy using mc from /media/sdg1/en2 to ~/en2 try6 .. copy from sdb1 to sda3 .. seems to succeed .. but I see messages in /var/log/messages .. try7 .. same .. copy using mc from ~/en2 to /media/sdg1/en2 try8 .. copy from sda3 to sdb1 .. succedes just fine .. no messages no nothing .. try9 .. same .. adding a new drive in the hub ! :) copy using mc from sdb to sdc try10 .. there's some weird thing going in my /var/log/messages .. plugging out and back in the hub with all drives :) ( along with some rmmod xhci_hcd .. usb_storage and modprobe-ing them again ) fails .. try11 .. 2012-09-26T00:02:38.810382+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93320.454212] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: Host not halted after 16000 microseconds. 2012-09-26T00:02:38.810393+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93320.454212] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: Host controller not halted, aborting reset. 2012-09-26T00:02:38.815117+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93320.496220] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: USB bus 1 deregistered 2012-09-26T00:02:41.416854+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.097171] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: xHCI Host Controller 2012-09-26T00:02:41.416932+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.097927] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1 2012-09-26T00:02:41.463589+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.143244] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: Host not halted after 16000 microseconds. 2012-09-26T00:02:41.463629+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.143366] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: can't setup 2012-09-26T00:02:41.463636+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.143381] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: USB bus 1 deregistered 2012-09-26T00:02:41.463647+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.143836] xhci_hcd 0000:04:00.0: init 0000:04:00.0 fail, -110 2012-09-26T00:02:41.463698+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93323.143852] xhci_hcd: probe of 0000:04:00.0 failed with error -110 2012-09-26T00:02:48.399042+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93330.080709] usb 3-2: USB disconnect, device number 13 2012-09-26T00:02:50.344948+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.026075] usb 3-1: new high-speed USB device number 18 using ehci_hcd 2012-09-26T00:02:50.460032+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.141141] usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=2109, idProduct=3431 2012-09-26T00:02:50.460041+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.141146] usb 3-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=1, SerialNumber=0 2012-09-26T00:02:50.460067+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.141152] usb 3-1: Product: USB2.0 Hub 2012-09-26T00:02:50.460095+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.141646] hub 3-1:1.0: USB hub found 2012-09-26T00:02:50.460100+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.141895] hub 3-1:1.0: 4 ports detected 2012-09-26T00:02:50.732921+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.414276] usb 3-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 19 using ehci_hcd 2012-09-26T00:02:51.204932+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.886035] usb 3-1.2: device not accepting address 19, error -71 2012-09-26T00:02:51.215940+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.897641] hub 3-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2 2012-09-26T00:02:51.227932+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.909636] hub 3-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3 2012-09-26T00:02:51.291054+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.972259] usb 3-1.4: new high-speed USB device number 22 using ehci_hcd 2012-09-26T00:02:51.313950+03:00 d3xt3r01 kernel: [93332.995654] hub 3-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4 now I need to reboot ..
