You haven't fixed the problem spotted by Rob which is that the example
is now out of sync, it's missing the required properties.

Also long run I think best is going to have a child node per downstream
port, so we create a matching linux struct device. This will make it
easier to deal with the other device-controller in the ast2600 which is
basically one of these without a vhub above it.

Ahhh, now I know where my problem is..
Let me see why I cannot reproduce the error on my side; otherwise I may
create more noise in my next patch set (customize device IDs/strings)..

Maybe a dumb question: what would be the proper place to parse the child
node/properties when they are added? For example, in some usb_gadget_ops
callback?


Cheers,

No. What the vhub would do is when it probes, it creates a platform
device for each "port" child node that's linked to the DT node.

The driver for the device then attaches to it via standard DT matching
and checks if it has a vhub parent or not, and based on that, operates
as a vhub child device or a standalone one.

(For example, it might have different functions for EP selection since
standalone devices have private EPs rather than a shared pool)

They can both be in the same module or they can be separate modules
with cross dependencies.

Cheers,
Ben.

I see. It's to describe these downstream devices (such as configurations
and according functions) in device tree, which is similar to defining a
composite device and linking functions/interfaces via configfs. Thanks for
the clarify.


Cheers,

It's also to make it easier long run to support both the standalone
variant and the vhub variant from the same code base.

Cheers,
Ben.

+description: |+
+  The ASPEED USB 2.0 Virtual Hub Controller implements 1 set of USB Hub
+  register and several sets of Device and Endpoint registers to support
+  the Virtual Hub's downstream USB devices.
+
+  Supported number of devices and endpoints vary depending on hardware
+  revisions. AST2400 and AST2500 Virtual Hub supports 5 downstream devices
+  and 15 generic endpoints, while AST2600 Virtual Hub supports 7 downstream
+  devices and 21 generic endpoints.
