Anything received after that time might be too late.
There is something going on with USB in this release. My AMD X570 board is
constantly having ports stop working, while a older AMD X399 board seems
fine (maybe, there is an ATEN USB extender involved on the X570 system)
I've only had time to do very rudimentary debugging, but reverting all usb
and xhci related patches seems to have solved it, eg:
<snip>
I might be able to narrow it down in a day or two.
Narrowing it down would be good, try sticking with either the hub or
xhci patches. And, 'git bisect' might make it easier.
It seems to be caused by "USB: hub: Don't record a connect-change event
during reset-resume". Running 5.5.7-rc1 with only that patch reverted
works fine.
Also happens with the X399. And only when the ATEN UCE260 USB extender
is involved. Connecting a device is the problem, if it is connected at
boot, things seem fine, until you connect something new. Then the port
dies completely, dead even if you disconnect the extender and plug
something in directly - until system is rebooted (perhaps driver reload
would work too - have not tested.)
Aw well, the problem does seem a little narrower than I expected at first :)
There's no errors in the kernel log at all. The last thing logged is
that whatever device was on the other end got disconnected.
Also, does Linus's current tree show the same problems for you?
Yes, it does
Unfortunately, email deliverability will be terrible for me for a few
days (there was a mishap), so if you could loop in the
author/maintainers for me that would be good.
