Series | usb: misc: Add onboard_usb_hub driver | expand |
Hi Greg, Just wanted to check if this series is still on your radar. Is there anything that blocks it from landing (further ACKs, ...)?

I'm ok to update the relevant defconfigs files so that the resulting .config is identical to before your series. Thanks! -- cheers, -roger

I completely forgot that arm32 has all these different defconfigs. While trying to adjust qcom_defconfig I came across something that confuses me. The original defconfig results in: # CONFIG_USB_XHCI_HCD is not set CONFIG_USB_DWC3_DUAL_ROLE=y My assumption was that xHCI support is need for dwc3 dual mode (which is made explicit by https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1468240/), is that incorrect? Maybe without xHCI support the controller can still operate in USB 2.0 dual role mode?

All the dual role code does is add/remove the host/gadget controller platform devices.

So I think your Kconfig changes for USB_DWC3_DUAL_ROLE to depend on USB_XHCI_PLATFORM are correct. cheers, -roger

I have the feeling that you might want to check if you can use pwrseq subsystem being proposed at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-msm/20211006035407.1147909-1-dmitry.baryshkov@linaro.org/. It has been created for exactly the same reason of handling complex power up/down requirements in a bus-neutral way. So instead of creating an onboard-usb-hub, you might want to populate the hub node with the reference to pwrseq device and make usb core call into pwrseq.

Thanks for the pointer, it's good to see another attempt to sort out power sequencing. The pwrseq framework could potentially be used by the onboard_usb_hub driver, but it probably can't replace it completely. Besides powering the USB hub on before enumeration the driver also can optionally power it off during system suspend when no wakeup capable USB devices are connected, which can result in signifcant power savings on battery powered devices. For this the driver needs knowledge about the USB (hub) devices that are provided by a hub chip. That part is probably best implemented by a driver under drivers/usb/. It might be an option to have the USB core and the onboard_usb_hub driver use the pwrseq framework, though we'd have to ensure that it isn't a problem that the USB core turns power on (before enumeration) and the onboard_usb_hub driver turns it off during system suspend (and on again on resume).
