Re: Need testers for long-standing xHCI clear halt bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Sarah,

I built: 

- current kernel git with SUSE config
- libgphoto2 with the clear_halt reenabled
- rebooted

gphoto2 now hangs on the second try 

- only applied both patches referenced. 
  I need to whack them a bit as xhci_giveback_urb_in_irq got a new parameter
- rebuilt, rebooted

gphoto2 now works on multiple tries.

So the patches seem to fix the issue for my usecase.

Ciao, Marcus
