USB Device mode communication problems
Added by iseori kang about 1 month ago
USB0 is set to device mode.
It stops working on some laptops.
The driver is detected but communication stops.
The problem does not occur when connecting through a USB hub.
Have you ever seen a similar case?

Hello,
How is the USB0 device configured? As a gadget device (rndis, cdc, serial port, mass storage device, etc.)?
We have not seen this behavior here, I'd like to try to reproduce your setup if possible.
With regards,
Mike

Hello, Mike.
USB0 device settings.
H/W
USB0 Connector : Mini-B
The circuit has a common-mode filter and a TVS. There are no special connections.
Vbus is designed to be a reference (1.64V input to the pin)
USB1_DRVVBUS is floating
Thank you and best regards,

Hello, Mike.
Do you have any updates on this?
Thank you and best regards,
RE: USB Device mode communication problems - Added by Michael Williamson 15 days ago
I have not been able to reproduce it here, yet.
Do you get any messages from "dmesg" when the communication is dropped?
If you unplug and replug the cable, does the connection re-establish?
Have you sent Jonathan a copy of your schematic, I can review that as well.
With regards,
Mike

The schematic I received was only the ethernet section so its missing the USB.

Hello,
We noticed that the message is different for success and failure.
It is only coming from a few laptops.
(Lenovo family more often)
I've attached a schematic, nothing special.
USB1 is being used for internal communication without any problems (dual roll).

Hello,
The team seems to have solved it with the following settings.
Fixed Dts file
snps,usb2-lpm-disable;
snps,usb2-gadget-lpm-disable;

Good find. Interestingly in the 6.6 kernel both the AM62A and AM62P have those lpm-disable options for both USB0 and USB1.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240412-for-v6-10-am62-usb-typec-dt-v7-3-93b827adf97e@kernel.org/
As per AM62A TRM [1] USB Link Power Management (LPM)
feature is not supported. Disable it else it may
cause enumeration failure on some devices.4.9.2.1 USB2SS Unsupported Features
The following features are not supported on this family of devices:
...
- USB 2.0 ECN: Link Power Management (LPM)
...
Checking the AM62x TRM, it also lists the same LPM issue. So I would recommend applying the lpm-disable to both USB ports. We will follow up with TI about getting this applied to the AM62x as well.
