Subject: Re: [PATCH] usb: host: xhci: Compliance Mode port recovery

Hi Alexis,

This is a quirk for your TI host controller because it doesn't properly
give a port status event for the link status change to compliance mode,
correct?

First, you need to add that background to your patch description, and
describe what triggers this behavior and how frequently it can occur.

Second, you need to make a separate xHCI quirk for your host controller,
set it based on the PCI vendor and device ID in xhci-pci.c, and only arm
the timer if the quirk is set.  We don't need this timer for any other
host controllers, so it should run only for your host.

If you need an example, look through the xHCI driver for
XHCI_EP_LIMIT_QUIRK.

Your patch is line wrapped and can't be applied.  Please resend with a
mail client that won't mangle your patches.  I personally use mutt, but
you can take a look at Documentation/email-clients.txt for other
suggestions.

Um, what happens if the timer fires while the xHCI host is in PCI D3
because it has been auto-suspended?  All the registers read as
0xfffffff.  You should make sure to stop and restart the timer when the
the host is suspended.

Instead of doing the warm reset here, you need to let the USB core
handle it. Here, you should kick khubd for the USB 3.0 roothub by
calling usb_hcd_poll_rh_status().  Look at
xhci-ring.c:handle_port_status() for an example.

Then in the xhci-hub.c code that checks for port changes, you should
fake a link status change.  The USB core will notice the status change
and see the port's link status of compliance.  Then the USB core will
take care of issuing the warm reset and doing a proper job of timing it.

You can see this sort of process by looking at the recent CAS patch:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=134002582807373&w=2

Your patch will need to be built on top of that one, since that patch
adds support for issuing a warm reset when compliance mode is detected.

Everywhere you use COMP_MODE_RCVRY_TIMEOUT you multiply it by 1000.  Why
not just rename it to COMP_MODE_RCVRY_MSECS and define it to 2000?

This function should immediately return if your new quirk isn't set.

You need to put this into a new function that also returns immediately
if your quirk isn't set.

How often do you really need this timer to run?  Do you really want to
wake your CPU out of deep C states every two seconds?  Is there any way
you can narrow the scope of when the timer runs so that it doesn't run
that often, or increase this timeout to something like 10 seconds?
