USB suspend resume issue on Vybrid

This issue was discussed already on another community forum [1]. But that thread does not provide a solution.

Here is a dump of a suspend/resume cycle (with some register prints):

Does Toradex know of this issue and is someone already working to fix it or is it already fixed?

A colleague of mine already posted on the NXP/Freescale thread also providing a workaround by doing a unbind/bind operation on the USB driver.

Hi Mirza,

Yes we are aware of this issue, see also [1]. @sanchayan.maity works on this and posted the Freescale/NXP community article. So far we do not have a solution, it seems that unbind/bind the driver could be a possible workaround…

Hi Stefan.

I looked at your BSP road-map yesterday but could not find that issue. You must have added it today :).

So far we do not have a solution, it seems that unbind/bind the driver could be a possible workaround…

I can confirm that unbind/bind works as a workaround for now, or at least that is what we are doing at the moment and it seems to be working.

If you find something we are happy to help testing it.

edit: Fixed a typo

Yes, we had it internally tracked and not published yet, I did that yesterday.

As reported by Niclas Lindgren on NXP Community and confirmed by @mirza.krak, unbind & (re)bind the driver works around this issue. Use the following command sequence to use this work around:

echo ci_hdrc.1 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/ci_hdrc/unbind
echo mem > /sys/power/state
[...after wakeup]
echo ci_hdrc.1 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/ci_hdrc/bind
