Would you like to submit a patch to do this? Alan, I was looking at the port state sections of the xHCI spec, and ran across this note in section 4.19.1.2.3: "The completion of Host Controller Reset (i.e. the HCRST ‘1’ to ‘0’ transition) does not depend on the completion of any port activity other than entering the Disconnected state. Software shall check the Port Reset (PR) flag to ensure that the Warm Reset is complete before issuing any commands to a port." I think the problems with the host driving a warm port reset on HC reset goes deeper than just needing to clear the PR and WPR bits on hub_activate(). Perhaps the xHCI driver needs to wait until PRC is set for all ports in xhci_init(), so that khubd doesn't cause a write to the port status registers until the warm reset is complete. That could also be part of John's issue (mail: problem with Roseweil eusb3 enclosure). Maybe his host gets into a bad state when the xHCI driver attempts to write to the port status registers before the warm port reset is done?
