Problems with USB RT2870 (especially with a hub)

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

 



Hi, I'm using a high power 2W ralink 2870 based card on kernel 3.2.24

After "some time", usually more frequently than daily I will get some kind of USB event and the device starts giving the error messages shown below. However, curiously I can trigger this to happen more frequently if I connect various high power devices to the bus, eg 3G dongles, or if I put the ralink on an unpowered hub (double trouble if I connect a 3G card to the unpowered hub also). Using the external hub I can usually trigger this event within 10-15 minutes or less.

The rt2870 is connected to a PC Engines Alix 2D13 board, which may or may not have the highest power USB output... Certainly given that putting it and other things on an unpowered hub increases the frequency of the event suggests that there might be some kind of bus reset or similar going on from time to time?

Unplugging the USB cable and replugging gets everything going again for a while.

Can anyone advise on how I might debug this further and more specifically how I might look to fix the driver so that it can survive these events, eg resetting itself or whatever?

Thanks for your thoughts

The "usb_regbusy_read" is occasional and the "value" varies
