Description Jean-Luc Coulon 2008-02-20 09:10:41 UTC
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.25-rc2-git1
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.25-rc2-git4
Distribution: Debian
Hardware Environment: ASUS A8V Deluxe, Athmon 64 x2 4200+
Software Environment:
Problem Description: At boot, I've spurious messages related to the USB subsystem.
Then related to scsi (emulated) devices.

usb 1-7: device descriptor read/64, error -110
usb 1-7: device descriptor read/64, error -110
usb 1-7: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5

usb 1-7: USB disconnect, address 5
...
sd 3:0:0:0: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery
scsi 3:0:0:1: rejecting I/O to dead device
scsi 3:0:0:1: rejecting I/O to dead device
scsi 3:0:0:1: rejecting I/O to dead device
...


I will join dmesg output for clarity.

The sde to sdg are a built-in flash card reader connected in USB.
After the boot process complete, I've lost the usb card reader.

After a reboot, the motherboad fails in POST displaying:
Initializing USB Controllers

I have to power cycle the machine to resume to normal operation.


I've not this problem with 2.6.24 for the stable branch, neither with any rc1 I built. 
Both 2.6.25-rc2-git3 and 2.6.25-rc2-git4 have it.

A very recent regression.
Comment 3 Rafael J. Wysocki 2008-03-09 16:38:42 UTC
This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.24.  Please don't
close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.
Comment 4 Jean-Luc Coulon 2008-03-09 22:50:19 UTC
BTW, I can normally boot my system since rc4
Comment 5 Alan Stern 2008-03-12 13:00:20 UTC
Does this mean the bug has been fixed?
Comment 6 Rafael J. Wysocki 2008-03-23 14:22:54 UTC
Jean-Luc, can you confirm that the bug is no longer present?
Comment 7 Jean-Luc Coulon 2008-03-23 14:36:30 UTC
Yes, I can confirm. I've updated until latest git7 and everything is fine.
