Here are a few changes in musb_h_tx_flush_fifo().

- Refering to 2ccc6d30a (usb: musb: fix bit mask for CSR in
    musb_h_tx_flush_fifo()), the datasheet says that
MUSB_TXCSR_FLUSHFIFO
    is only valid when MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY is set as well. It means
    MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY should be checked, not set.

     Hum, my copy of the MUSBHDRC  programmer's guide says about
TXCSR.FlushFIFO in host mode:

<<
The CPU writes a 1 to this bit to flush the latest packet from the
endpoint Tx FIFO. The FIFO pointer is reset, the TxPktRdy bit (below) is
cleared and an interrupt is generated. May be set simultaneously with
TxPktRdy to abort the packet that is currently being loaded into the
FIFO. Note: FlushFIFO should only be used when TxPktRdy is set. At other
times, it may cause data to be corrupted. Also note that, if the FIFO is
double-buffered, FlushFIFO may need to be set twice to completely clear
the FIFO.

So how to interpret this message? FLUSHFIFO and TXPKTRDY should be set
at the
same time? If so, I will drop this change in V3.

     Yes, I think it's rather clear in this respect.

In either case, musb is unable to flush the tx fifo in urb dequque for
device
disconnect, but harmless, so the next two changes are important to
give better
user experience.

     Hm, looks like some errata... and hiding this from users while
there's no workaround doesn't seem a good policy.

Well, based on the programmer's guide, the driver should set the flushFIFO
bit, and wait for the interrupt.

     That's oversimplified, consider the double-buffered FIFO. ;-)

Seems like we have some misinterpretation here and IMO Bin's patch is
almost complete. The way I read MUSB's docs, it tells me three different
things:

1. FIFONOTEMPTY is valid *only* when TXPKTRDY is also set

   Don't see where they say that...

        Bin's new while condition solves this part:

+     while ((csr & MUSB_TXCSR_FIFONOTEMPTY) && (csr & MUSB_TXCSR_TXPKTRDY)) {

2. If we have Double Buffering, we need to set MUSB_TXCSR_FLUSHFIFO
twice.

        This does not seem to be taken care of, but it would be
        something below:

Why? It should just take another loop iteration to clear the double-buffered FIFO, as far as my reading of the code goes...


csr |= MUSB_TXCSR_FLUSH_FIFO;
musb_writew(epio, MUSB_TXCSR, csr);

if (ep->double_buffering_enabled)
        musb_write(epio, MUSB_TXCSR, csr);

3. We can set TXPKTRDY *together* with MUSB_TXCSR_FLUSH_FIFO to cancel
the packet which is being loaded in the fifo right now.

        This seems to be a regression with current patch, however I
        don't think current code is perfect either. It unconditionally
        sets FLUSH_FIFO and TXPKTRDY without caring for the consequences
        of doing that. What happens if we set both of them but there's
        no packet being currently loaded into the FIFO ?

To minimize changes, I think Bin just needs to keep the original csr
unconditionally setting both FLUSHFIFO and TXPKTRDY alone while also
making sure to check that TKPKTRDY is set when checking FIFONOTEMPTY.

   If TxPktRdy is already set, what's the point of forcing it set on write?
If it gets cleared in-between (perhaps the packet was sent?), we'll get into the dubious situation with non data in FIFO (you've described), no?

I would also add a very verbose and descriptive comment on that
particular location so we never forget about these MUSB oddities next
time someone's looking at this.

   Agreed.

MBR, Sergei
