We are thinking of one approach here. Iterating over all the ports once, so that we find 'good' ports and 'bad' ports By 'bad' port we mean that either the device connected to it is bad or nothing is connected to this port. Once we are done with "usb_hub_port_connect_change()" and other jobs for 'good' ports, we iterate once again on bad ports. Not sure how good this approach :-(. Any suggestions ?

Any suggestions ? That might just work, but I wonder if it's worth it. It's a pity we can't make a list of those as they're not even probed yet :( Best regards, Marek Vasut

It's a pity we can't make a > list of those as they're not even probed yet :( True, but at this point of time atleast the CSC and CCS bits tell us about whether something is connected or not. Right ? So lets make the ports on which nothing is connected 'bad' and probe them later so that if something is connected to these, job can be done. If you are fine i may drop this patch from this series for now and come back with a solution. By the time i can update the patch-series.

Sorry for the late reply again. I think the best way around here would be to make the delay configurable, possibly as an argument to "usb reset" with some reasonable default value, what do you think?
