Hi @dgatwood, @Jazz. I took a look at the USB patches that landed between 5.11.0-41-generic and 5.11.0-44-generic in the Focal HWE tree:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/mfJCw5XmBv/ One commit which I thought was interesting was: commit 5caa90d5fedfcdf57a42c272896cfd0ef6b5c667 commit-upstream: 5255660b208aebfdb71d574f3952cf48392f4306 Author: Jonathan Bell <jonat...@raspberrypi.org> Date: Fri Oct 8 12:25:44 2021 +0300 Subject: xhci: add quirk for host controllers that don't update endpoint DCS Link: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/5255660b208aebfdb71d574f3952cf48392f4306 I took a look at the Amazon B08PF8XR73 card you have: https://www.amazon.com/YEELIYA-PCI-7-Port-USB-C-USB/dp/B08PF8XR73 The page mentions "Advanced Dual Chip Uses Fresco Logic 1100 +VL820 dual chips". The above commit is a quirk for VIA VL8xx chipsets, and looking at the code: if (pdev->vendor == PCI_VENDOR_ID_VIA && pdev->device == 0x3483) { xhci->quirks |= XHCI_LPM_SUPPORT; xhci->quirks |= XHCI_EP_CTX_BROKEN_DCS; } It was applied to PCI_VENDOR_ID_VIA && pdev->device == 0x3483. Looking these up: https://devicehunt.com/view/type/pci/vendor/1106/device/3483 We see that the VL820 is listed: VX800/820-Series PCI-Express Root Port 1 So this new piece of code would apply to your PCIe card. There was a similar bug filed a few days ago: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1956542 Looking at the lsusb output, they are also using a VIA Labs VL813 Hub, and USB 3 no longer works. Bus 003 Device 056: ID 2109:2813 VIA Labs, Inc. VL813 Hub In this case though, the VL813 is under a different vendor and device ID, and the code in that commit would not apply: https://devicehunt.com/view/type/usb/vendor/2109/device/2813 Since its 0x2813 and not 0x3483. Still, this is very interesting. @Jazz, does your system have any "VIA Labs, Inc" USB host devices? Check "lsusb -v". Note that the commit was also present in 5.13.0-23-generic on Impish, but is not in 5.13.0-22-generic. @dgatwood, could you please collect "lsusb -v" as well, and maybe try 5.11.0-41-generic? Thanks, Matthew -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1956849 Title: Almost all USB ports suddenly stopped working; unbootable Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This package needs to be pulled NOW. It disables almost all USB-3.0 and USB-C ports completely. Even though I had automatic software updates turned OFF (or so I thought), my Mac Pro suddenly got a new kernel when I rebooted it this morning: Linux macpro-obs 5.11.0-44-generic #48~20.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 14 15:36:44 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and it contains a P0 showstopper bug. Upon rebooting, I got dropped into the initrd prompt because Linux could not see the external USB drive that I'm booting from (WDBAGF5000AGY-WESN). I wasted an entire day figuring out what was wrong, and even went so far as to order a replacement SSD, planning to rebuild everything from scratch, because the drive failed to appear in every single USB port I tried. Then I discovered that a different SSD didn't work, either. At that point, I realized that something else was wrong, and I kept trying until I found one other port that worked. I was then able to boot and get dmesg and lsusb output. This kernel update broke not only the built-in ports, but also the ports on a generic USB-C PCIe card (Amazon B08PF8XR73). Mac Pro built-in USB-3.0(A) ports (2x): working Mac Pro built-in USB-C ports (4x): dead USB-C PCIe card USB-C ports (2x): dead USB-C PCIe card USB-3.0(A) ports (5x): dead All devices fail to appear in lsusb when attached to the port, including an Apple USB keyboard, an Anker USB-C Ethernet adapter, a WD SSD, and a Sandisk SSD. I'm going to roll back my kernel to a working kernel, but this package needs to be pulled NOW before it affects too many people. This is too catastrophic a bug to wait even a day.
