Kernel crash on tegra-xudc, when multiple phys are added

Hello,
I encounter a crash in the xudc driver when attempting to add more than one PHYs to the xudc@355000 node. Could you guide me on the proper method to configure this node?
We’re working with a custom board derived from Jetson Orin Nano, which includes two USB-C ports. Our aim is to set the data-role for both ports as dual.

tegra_xudc: xudc@3550000 {
phys = <&{/xusb_padctl@3520000/pads/usb2/lanes/usb2-0}>,
<&{/xusb_padctl@3520000/pads/usb3/lanes/usb3-1}>,
<&{/xusb_padctl@3520000/pads/usb2/lanes/usb2-1}>,
<&{/xusb_padctl@3520000/pads/usb3/lanes/usb3-0}>;
phy-names = “usb2-0”, “usb3-1”, “usb2-1”, “usb3-0”;
}

Hi,

Just double checked with our internal team, our USB driver does not support multi device port.

Thus, please do not add multiple phys there.

Hi,
Thanks for the info. Could there be an alternative method to set up two USB-C ports in dual mode? In our custom carrier board, the TPS65988 PD controller handles the USB role switch. I would appreciate a sample configuration.

No, there is no alternative solution here.

Alright, we’ve set USB2-0 as the host and USB2-1 as Dual role. However,
Flashing with initrd is not working because USB2-0 is the recovery port.

Is it possible to set USB2-0 as Dual-role (within the initrd flashing kernel) and then reconfigure it as a HOST on the installed kernel?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Aman

You have to prepare two Linux_for_Tegra folders

  1. for one Linux_for_Tegra folder run initrd flash with –no-flash option to generate the flash images with the kernel change. The image will be in tools/kernel_flash/images

  2. for the other Linux_for_Tegra folder without the kernel change, you can copy the tools/kernel_flash/images from (1) to this Linux_for_Tegra/tools/kernel_flash

  3. Run this flash command with --use-backup-image. Then it will use the images folder that get copied over
    tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --use-backup-image jetson-orin-nano-devkit mmcblk0p1

(1) is the image you want to “flash into” the system. Thus, your kernel dtb could disable usb device mode here.

(2) is the image you are using for initrd flash tool. Thus, this kernel dtb has to enable usb device mode.
