Fix incorrect pin assignment values when connecting to a monitor with Type-C receptacle instead of a plug.

For example the LG 27 UL850-W is a monitor with Type-C receptacle. The monitor responds to MODE DISCOVERY command with following DisplayPort Capability flag: dp->alt->vdo=0x140045 The existing logic only take cares of UPF_D plug case, and would take the bit 15:8 for this 0x140045 case.

commit c1e5c2f0cb8a22ec2e14af92afc7006491bebabb upstream.

Fix incorrect pin assignment values when connecting to a monitor with
Type-C receptacle instead of a plug.

According to specification, an UFP_D receptacle's pin assignment
should came from the UFP_D pin assignments field (bit 23:16), while
an UFP_D plug's assignments are described in the DFP_D pin assignments
(bit 15:8) during Mode Discovery.

For example the LG 27 UL850-W is a monitor with Type-C receptacle.
The monitor responds to MODE DISCOVERY command with following
DisplayPort Capability flag:

        dp->alt->vdo=0x140045

The existing logic only take cares of UPF_D plug case,
and would take the bit 15:8 for this 0x140045 case.

This results in an non-existing pin assignment 0x0 in
dp_altmode_configure.

To fix this problem a new set of macros are introduced
to take plug/receptacle differences into consideration.

USB: HCD: Fix URB giveback issue in tasklet function 2022-08-21T13:15:26+00:00 Weitao Wang WeitaoWang-oc@zhaoxin.com 2022-07-26T07:49:18+00:00 4d7da7e565c36bd5685b5d5452f4feffc794050a commit 26c6c2f8a907c9e3a2f24990552a4d77235791e6 upstream. Usb core introduce the mechanism of giveback of URB in tasklet context to reduce hardware interrupt handling time. On some test situation(such as FIO with 4KB block size), when tasklet callback function called to giveback URB, interrupt handler add URB node to the bh->head list also. If check bh->head list again after finish all URB giveback of local_list, then it may introduce a "dynamic balance" between giveback URB and add URB to bh->head list. This tasklet callback function may not exit for a long time, which will cause other tasklet function calls to be delayed. Some real-time applications(such as KB and Mouse) will see noticeable lag. In order to prevent the tasklet function from occupying the cpu for a long time at a time, new URBS will not be added to the local_list even though the bh->head list is not empty. But also need to ensure the left URB giveback to be processed in time, so add a member high_prio for structure giveback_urb_bh to prioritize tasklet and schelule this tasklet again if bh->head list is not empty. At the same time, we are able to prioritize tasklet through structure member high_prio. So, replace the local high_prio_bh variable with this structure member in usb_hcd_giveback_urb.

usb: core: hcd: Add support for deferring roothub registration 2022-06-09T08:20:48+00:00 Kishon Vijay Abraham I kishon@ti.com 2022-05-10T09:16:29+00:00 ce4627f09e666f1c8de880c19786a449725862ef commit a44623d9279086c89f631201d993aa332f7c9e66 upstream. It has been observed with certain PCIe USB cards (like Inateck connected to AM64 EVM or J7200 EVM) that as soon as the primary roothub is registered, port status change is handled even before xHC is running leading to cold plug USB devices not detected. For such cases, registering both the root hubs along with the second HCD is required. Add support for deferring roothub registration in usb_add_hcd(), so that both primary and secondary roothubs are registered along with the second HCD.
