kernel doesn't load correctly usb 2.0 devices. I've tried a lot of different kernel configuration (e.g. whitout preempitible kernel). May it be a kernel problem, and not a gentoo problem, but I think usefull to advise gentoo developers, to have some suggestion, as the first step. On these threads: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-356526.html http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb-users%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg13148.html is there a lot of output from logs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.modprobe -v ehci_hcd 2.plug on usb 2.0 device 3.read failures on logs. Actual Results: my usb 2.0 devices doesn't work. Expected Results: to mount correctly usb 2.0 devices. s939 ~ # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/amd64/2005.0, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r1, 2.6.12-gentoo-r3 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12-gentoo-r3 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.12 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Jul 5 2005, 20:02:06)] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.9 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.16 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fweb -frename-registers -ftracer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fweb -frename-registers -ftracer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig buildpkg ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://cdn.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/gentoo/ http://www.die.unipd.it/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo-sources/ http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://mirror.nutsmaas.nl/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/" LANG="it_IT@euro" LC_ALL="it_IT" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="it" MAKEOPTS="-j3 -s" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X aalib acpi alsa bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 bzlib cddb cdr chroot crypt cspell cups curl dvd dvdr eds encode esd fam flac font-server foomaticdb fortran fpx gif gimpprint gnome gphoto2 gpm graphviz gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml hal ieee1394 imagemagick imlib java javascript jbig jp2 jpeg kde kdeenablefinal lcms ldap libwww lzw lzw-tiff mad mime mng mozilla mp3 mpeg nas ncurses nls nptl nvidia ogg opengl oss pam pam_chroot pam_console pam_timestamp perl php png posix ppds pwdb python qt readline rtc samba scanner slang smp ssl svg tcltk tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales wmf xine xml xml2 xmms xpm xrandr xv zlib linguas_it userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET
Please post the full problem report (including logs as attachments) to this bug so that everything is in one place. Please also attach your kernel .config and the "lspci -vvv" output, and the "lspci -n" output.
Created attachment 62777 [details] more data usb 2.0 devices don't work on my ga-k8nf-9 motherbord using ehci_hcd module. They work only with ohci_hcd module on 64 bit installation or with ehci_hcd module on 32 bit installation.
Sorry to be awkward. Please post everything in plain text format so that its easy to read. If this means multiple attachments, no problem. (We really need docs on this stuff...)
Created attachment 62796 [details] extract from /var/log/kernel/current first attachment. Obtained using module ehci_hcd on a amd64 bit installation.
Created attachment 62797 [details] second extract from /var/log/kernel/current Second attachment. Obtained on the same installation, after #modprobe -rv ehci_hcd. All devices are well charged, but with ohci_hcd module.
Created attachment 62798 [details] third extract from /var/log/kernel/current Third attachment. Obtained on the same machine, but with a 32-bit installation. All devices are well charged, with ehci_hcd module.
Created attachment 62799 [details] lspci output lspci -n and lspci -vvv output. If you need some other information, may you ask.
Ok- thats better, thanks. Any chance you could try and reproduce with vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc2?
Created attachment 62835 [details] debug output form /var/log/kernel/current vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc2 is not in portage. So I've used vanilla-sources-2.6.13_rc1. Same behaviour. I attach other output with this kernel. The flag for debug from usb is on.
Created attachment 62836 [details] debug output form /var/log/kernel/current Off course, ohci_hcd module works fine.
Ok, looks like an upstream bug then. Please file a bug report at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/ and post the new bug URL here. Thanks.
Opened bug on Kernel Bug Tracker: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4866
Solved upgrading bios to f4 version (see http://www.gigabyte.us/Motherboard/Support/BIOS/BIOS_GA-K8NF-9.htm). f7 version gives me another problem (may be a second bug?)
