By searching for the current xhci driver, the driver did not handle HCE event. In fact, I am not sure if other operations will cause HCE, The HCE event is used to reset the USB controller according to the definition of the event. I test this reset operation through the Sysfs file, but have not tested all usage scenarios. Thanks. Longfang

It doesn't reset the xHC which is the one thing needed to recover from a HCE. This would deadlock immediately. Many of the above functions shouldn't be called from interrupt context, and if HCE is set we probably even won't get any interrupts. A reset will set all registers to their initial values, and need to be re-initialized. Nothing is freed or re-allocated, registrs are not re-initialized here. Please revisit the xhci spec about HCE, and HCRST, and a more detail look at the xhci driver, and test the code before submitting. >>>> + >>> >>> Does this fix a real problem for you?

It's probably not very useful to check for it in the interrupt handler as the xHC hw ceases all activity when it sets the HCE bit, including sending interrupts. From the spec: 4.24.1 Internal Errors The Host Controller Error (HCE) flag is asserted when an internal xHC error is detected that exclusively affects the xHC. When the HCE flag is set to ‘1’ the xHC shall cease all activity. Software response to the assertion of HCE is to reset the xHC (HCRST = ‘1’) and reinitialize it >> I test this reset operation through the Sysfs file, but have not tested all usage scenarios. > > What sysfs file? I'm also interested in this, and to know more about RAS? Thanks -Mathias
