Some USB keys do not work in U-Boot for AM335x

Adri G
Intellectual 450 points

Our problem is U-Boot does not detect a number of USB keys, while some work fine. We really need to be able to boot the kernel off standard USB keys.

I previously got help getting USB working on our custom board on this thread: http://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/t/333490.aspx

We're using the AM335x and the design is based on the EVM.

Both U-Boot and Linux have been working file the whole time with the same USB device, a SanDisk Cruzer:

However, we started testing with other brand keys and are having problem detecting some of them in U-Boot, although they work fine once Linux is booted:

U-Boot doesn't give an error, it just doesn't detect the USB keys as storage devices:

U-Boot# usb start
(Re)start USB...
USB0:   scanning bus 0 for devices... 1 USB Device(s) found
       scanning usb for storage devices... 0 Storage Device(s) found

Has anyone experienced something similar?

I'm pretty sure they're all VFAT, the 4GB and 16GB keys don't work while the 8GB key works, so I don't think the size is the issue... Just don't know how to debug this.

    Hi Adri,

    I will ask the factory team about this.

    Please post the u-boot and kernel version you are using.

    USB protocol anayzer traces might give a clue of the issue.

    I hooked up a Total Phase Beagle USB 12 analyzer. Connected on Linux I only get Reset/Target disconnected and Unreset/Target connected messages, even if I write or read from the USB key.

    I get the same messages when I run the "usb start" command in U-Boot with USB that's not being detected. I've pasted the screenshot below.

    I've attached the capture file, but I don't think it contains anything more. It just needs the extension to be renamed back to a .tdc file.

    I tried to compare the differences between USB keys that work and don't work by having a look at what's output in Linux when plugging them in, but I don't see any pattern.

    I was wondering whether there is some setup in the USB driver being used that enables particular USB features. I'm having a look at musb_host.c and musb_core.c in drivers/usb/musb-new/ but don't see anything relevant yet that I understand.

    I hooked up a Total Phase Beagle USB 12 analyzer. Connected on Linux I only get Reset/Target disconnected and Unreset/Target connected messages, even if I write or read from the USB key.

    You have to fix this first. If you cannot get a correct trace in a working case, an analyzer will not be able to help debugging this issue.
