Hello,
I have some pxa270 based single board computers which have an
IT8152G companion chip. This chip has a built-in USB Host controller
which is (according to the datasheet) register compatible with OHCI
specification version 1.0.
During boot, I see that the OHCI controller is detected properly.
Devices that were already connected to the USB ports handled by this
chip are also detected at boot time. And they work correcly.
But when I connect a new device to a free port, nothing happens. No
messages in dmesg, and the device does not seem to initialize. (eg:
Led under optical mouse does not turn on). I have verified, and
there is power on the USB power pins. If I disconnect a device that
was present at boot time and reconnect it, it is not re-detected.
Here is a list of kernel version I was able to test with, and the
results:
2.6.20 -> Same problems as described above.
2.6.18 -> Same problems as described above.
2.6.17.5 -> Same problems as described above.
2.6.16.12 -> Everything works fine.
Suspecting that this could be a bug in the chip's implementation
exposed by some new features, I started looking at the code in the
hope to find stuff like controller specific work arounds, quirks,
etc to try. but I found nothing that was applicable to my problem...
I eventually decided to try the modification below, and now it works
correctly! But I dont understand why as I have very little knowledge
on the subject.
Any ideas?
