[PATCH v7 2/2] usb: new quirk to reduce the SET_ADDRESS request timeout

From: Hardik Gajjar
Date: Fri Oct 27 2023 - 11:20:58 EST


This patch introduces a new USB quirk,
USB_QUIRK_SHORT_SET_ADDRESS_REQ_TIMEOUT, which modifies the timeout value
for the SET_ADDRESS request. The standard timeout for USB request/command
is 5000 ms, as recommended in the USB 3.2 specification (section 9.2.6.1).

However, certain scenarios, such as connecting devices through an APTIV
hub, can lead to timeout errors when the device enumerates as full speed
initially and later switches to high speed during chirp negotiation.

In such cases, USB analyzer logs reveal that the bus suspends for
5 seconds due to incorrect chirp parsing and resumes only after two
consecutive timeout errors trigger a hub driver reset.

This 5-second delay in device enumeration is undesirable, particularly
in automotive applications where quick enumeration is crucial
(ideally within 3 seconds).

The newly introduced quirks provide the flexibility to align with a
3-second time limit, as required in specific contexts like automotive
applications.

By reducing the SET_ADDRESS request timeout to 500 ms, the
system can respond more swiftly to errors, initiate rapid recovery, and
ensure efficient device enumeration. This change is vital for scenarios
where rapid smartphone enumeration and screen projection are essential.

To use the quirk, please write "vendor_id:product_id:p" to
/sys/bus/usb/drivers/hub/module/parameter/quirks

For example,
echo "0x2c48:0x0132:p" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/hub/module/parameters/quirks"

changes since version 1:
- implement quirk instead of new API in xhci driver

changes since version 2:
- Add documentation for the new quirk.
- Define the timeout unit in milliseconds in variable names and function arguments.
- Change the xHCI command timeout from HZ (jiffies) to milliseconds.
- Add APTIV usb hub vendor and product ID in device quirk list
- Adding some other comments for clarity

Changes since version 3:
- Add some comments for clarity.
- Minor indentation and sequence change.

Changes since version 4:
- Changing the USB specification reference to version 3.2.
- Enhancing the commit message to provide more details about the technical issue.
- Improving the structure of function comments.

Changes since version 5:
- Changed the terminology in USB core driver files from 'command' to 'request'
as it is more commonly used.
It's important to note that USB specifications indicate these terms are interchangeable.
For example, USB spec 3.2, section 9.2.6.1, uses the term 'command' in its text
"USB sets an upper limit of 5 seconds for any command to be processed. "
- Change set_address to SET_ADDRESS.

Changes since version 6:
- Split this patch into two separate patches. There is now a separate patch for
xhci_hcd changes.
- Remove the _MS suffix from Macros.
- Make minor text corrections.
- Link to V6: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20231026101551.36551-1-hgajjar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
