Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 2/3] arm64: dts: qcom: x1e80100-crd: enable otg on usb
ports
+Cc Abel and Johan
FYI, this landed in qcom for-next last week for CRD and T14s.

This is a bit problematic, because dr_mode = "otg" seems to imply
gadget/peripheral mode by default and we are currently unable to detect
the role at runtime until the ADSP is started. Being in peripheral mode
by default will break USB installers; they won't be able find the rootfs
via USB. Unfortunately, they wouldn't be able to detect it once in the
rootfs either, because usually you first need to copy the ADSP firmware
from Windows (at least on the laptops).
I think the best quick fix would be to set
role-switch-default-mode = "host";
for now to restore the old behavior in initrd, while still allowing to
switch to peripheral mode once detected by the ADSP later.
It would be nice to have gadget mode in initrd as well, since e.g.
postmarketOS needs that to set up the USB debug shell. But I'm not sure
how we could support that:
- We could designate some of the ports as "peripheral by default" and
some as "host by default". E.g. usb_1_ss0 is also used for EDL and
Fastboot on CRD, so it's more likely to be used in peripheral mode.
But there still would be users confused about why they cannot plug in
their USB installer into one of the ports...
- Long term, I wonder if there is any way we could reuse the reduced
ADSP firmware from UEFI for USB detection until we start the full one
later? Perhaps it provides a similar interface?
Thanks,
Stephan
