Bug 6651

Summary: patch-2.6.16.16-17: VIA IRQ Fixup broken, results in problems with USB

test case, with a fix.

Description Sven Kockrick 2006-06-05 06:56:52 UTC
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.16.17
Distribution: Debian Etch, vanilla kernel from ftp.kernel.org
Hardware Environment: Laptop Sony VAIO PCG-FR215E (AMD Athlon)
Software Environment:
Problem Description: Kernel 2.6.16.16 works fine. Starting with 2.6.16.17, there
are following messages on boot: 

ehci_hcd 0000:00:10.3: Unlink after no-IRQ?  Controller is probably using the
wrong IRQ.
usb 1-1: device not accepting address 2, error -110
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usb 1-1: device not accepting address 3, error -110
[....]

several further addresses are probed in ascending order, always with same result
(error).

This bug is probably related to the patch of drivers/pci/quirk.c in
patch-2.6.16.16-17. I tried to re-insert the line

'DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_ENABLE(PCI_VENDOR_ID_VIA, PCI_ANY_ID, quirk_via_irq);'

after 

'DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_ENABLE(PCI_VENDOR_ID_VIA, PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C686_5,
quirk_via_irq);'

(line no. 658). With this change, the machine booted as usual, without problems.
But i am not a programmer and have no idea what i did ;-)

Steps to reproduce:

- Install kernel 2.6.16.17 (on this machine)
- reboot with USB2.0 devices connected
Comment 1 Chris Wedgwood 2006-06-05 13:18:56 UTC
Some PCI IDs are missing.  I'll send a patch for those shortly as well as
another patch which probably should live in -mm for a bit to *not* doing the
quirk when ACPI is used for interrupt routing.
Comment 2 Sven Kockrick 2006-07-15 02:59:59 UTC
Kernel 2.6.18-rc1-mm2 seems to solve this problem.
(Output of dmesg and lspci -n as attachment)

test case, with a fix.

I had the exact same problem, when upgrading from 2.6.15 to the 2.6.18-rc5
Came up with a patch, which added quirk_via_irq() for VIA USB 2.0 controler,
but I'm not including it -- the exact same patch has already made it into
2.6.18-rc6. I think this bug may be closed now.

Symptoms are very similar to the bug 5835, but I can't see "disconnect after
no-IRQ' message anywhere in dmesgs there.

More information about my machine is in the attachemnt.

The bug seems to be closed with kernel 2.6.18 as i installed this version three
days ago and had no problems since then. USB is working and the error reports
during boot ("Unlink after no-IRQ?" etc.) do not appear any longer. It looks
very good! Many thanks to all who were concerned in resolving this problem!

(I'm new to the bugzilla-system, so I don't know exactly what to do with the bug
status. As of my point of view, setting it to resolved/closed should be
appropriate.)

Sven,

Are you sure it's fixed?  There hasn't been anything merged yet that should deal
with all the cases of b0rkage, though as mentioned before not everyone needs to
the quirk.  Is it possible you upgraded your bios and or are now using ACPI
whereas in the past you didn't?
Comment 8 Sven Kockrick 2006-09-27 09:26:27 UTC
I didn't touch the bios and didn't change any bios-settings or
kernel-parameters. I always used ACPI and without it USB is/was not working at all.

But there _is_ a patch in 2.6.18 concerning this bug:

---------- cut from ChangeLog-2.6.18 ---------
commit 1ae4f9ba84b94b85d995a6ae0064b869ff15b080
Author: Mark Hindley <mark@hindley.org.uk>
Date:   Mon Aug 28 20:43:25 2006 +0100

    USB: Add VIA quirk fixup for VT8235 usb2
    
    Patch to add VIA PCI quirk for Enhanced/Extended USB on VT8235
    southbridge. It is needed in order to use EHCI/USB 2.0 with ACPI.
    Without it IRQs are not routed correctly, you get an "Unlink after
    no-IRQ?" error and the device is unusable.
    
    I belive this could also be a fix for Bugzilla Bug 5835.

---------- end ---------

It is exactly the error message i got here and the description of the other
symptoms matches too. Isn't it possible that this patch resolved the problem?
