Hrm... So normally, when I plug in the gadget cable into the OTG port,
I see the change_status irq comes in and the function sees:

dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl=4010000
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl.b.conidsts=1
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: Do port resume before switching to device mode
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: dwc2_hsotg_enqueue_setup: failed queue (-11)
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: new device is high-speed
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: new device is high-speed
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: new device is high-speed
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: new address 37
configfs-gadget gadget: high-speed config #1: b

Then when I unplug the cable:

dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl=2200000
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl.b.conidsts=0
usb 1-1: reset high-speed USB device number 13 using dwc2



When I plug in the OTG to USB-A adapter cable w/ a mouse plugged in
(note I see no change interrupt):

usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 13
usb 1-1: new low-speed USB device number 14 using dwc2
input: Logitech USB Optical Mouse as
/devices/platform/soc/f72c0000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/0003:046D:C058.0003/input/input3
hid-generic 0003:046D:C058.0003: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Mouse
[Logitech USB Optical Mouse] on usb-f72c0000.usb-1/input0


Then unplugging the OTG to USB-A adapter cable w/ mouse:

dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl=4010000
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl.b.conidsts=1
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: Do port resume before switching to device mode
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: Waiting for Peripheral Mode, Mode=Host

<here we get stuck in the loop until it finishes, unless using the
patch from this thread>

usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 14
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl=2200000
dwc2 f72c0000.usb: gotgctl.b.conidsts=0
usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 15 using dwc2
hub 1-1:1.0: USB hub found
hub 1-1:1.0: 3 ports detected


So I only get the change irq when:
* I plug in a micro-usb-B cable for gadget mode
* I remove the micro-usb-B cable being used for gadget mode
* I remove a OTG to USB-A adapter

One slight quirk, is that I don't always see the change irq when
removing the OTG to USB, as if I plug in a highspeed mass-storage
device, instead of the low-speed mouse, I don't see the change
interrupt and the device shows up and disappears the same as when I
plug into the normal USB-A host ports on the board.

So I suspect this has something to do with the way the USB-A host
ports on the board are wired up. As removing the usb-b plug seems to
switch the device back into A mode.

One quirk with this board is that the USB-A ports on the board do not
function if anything is in the OTG/B plug (which is frustrating to use
at times).

Guodong or Chen Yu understand the hardware details a bit better, and
might be able to explain more if you need more information.

I certainly hope so!

Yea. While I'm ok with some of these workarounds, I'd be happier to
figure out what the proper thing should be.
