Hello all,

when I updated my Kernel from version 5.4.155 to 5.4.215 I get an strange xhci error:

/xhci-hcd f10f0000.usb3: ERROR unknown event type 37//
//xhci-hcd f10f0000.usb3: ERROR Transfer event TRB DMA ptr not part of current TD ep_index 2 comp_code 13//
/

After a lot of this messages, my hardware makes a reboot without any more outputs.

The error only occures when i add /console=null/ to my kernel bootargs. When I add instead console=/ttyS0,115200/ no error occured.

Now I go back in kernelversions. The error occured first in version 5.4.159. Between patchlevel 158 and 159 there is a change:

/--- linux-5.4.158/kernel/printk/printk.c    2021-11-06 13:59:45.000000000 +0100// //+++ linux-5.4.159/kernel/printk/printk.c    2021-11-12 14:43:05.000000000 +0100//

//+    if (str[0] == 0 || strcmp(str, "null") == 0) {//
//+        __add_preferred_console("ttynull", 0, NULL, NULL);//
//         return 1;//
//+    }//
////
//     if (_braille_console_setup(&str, &brl_options))//
//         return 1;/

I checked my kernelconfig and found that I have no ttynull device configured (/CONFIG_NULL_TTY=n/). Add /CONFIG_NULL_TTY=y/ to my kernelconfig doesn't made a change.

When I undo the change above, everything works fine.


Does anybody know, what could be the main trigger for the error above?


Regards,

Sarah
