This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled usb: Don't enable LPM if the exit latency is zero. to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.yuz extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.yuz tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 13b3055cb739dfd704350fb63b54ae36a5fb4bff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2012 11:18:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] usb: Don't enable LPM if the exit latency is zero. commit ae8963adb4ad8c5f2a89ca1d99fb7bb721e7599f upstream. Some USB 3.0 devices signal that they don't implement Link PM by having all zeroes in the U1/U2 exit latencies in their SuperSpeed BOS descriptor. Don found that a Western Digital device he has experiences transfer errors when LPM is enabled. The lsusb shows the U1/U2 exit latencies are set to zero: Binary Object Store Descriptor: bLength 5 bDescriptorType 15 wTotalLength 22 bNumDeviceCaps 2 SuperSpeed USB Device Capability: bLength 10 bDescriptorType 16 bDevCapabilityType 3 bmAttributes 0x00 Latency Tolerance Messages (LTM) Supported wSpeedsSupported 0x000e Device can operate at Full Speed (12Mbps) Device can operate at High Speed (480Mbps) Device can operate at SuperSpeed (5Gbps) bFunctionalitySupport 1 Lowest fully-functional device speed is Full Speed (12Mbps) bU1DevExitLat 0 micro seconds bU2DevExitLat 0 micro seconds The fix is to not enable LPM for a particular link state if we find its corresponding exit latency is zero. This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.5, that contain the commit 1ea7e0e8e3d0f50901d335ea4178ab2aa8c88201 "USB: Add support to enable/disable USB3 link states."
