DragonFlyBSD

I got abit further with the kprintf's though not sure if its helpful!

"usb_delay_ms(&sc->sc_bus, USB_BUS_RESET_DELAY);" is in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/usb_subr.c

usb_delay_ms() calls "delay((ms+1) * 1000);" with value 101000 (ms is 100).

delay() is defined as DELAY in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/usb_subr.c

"DELAY" is in /usr/src/sys/platform/pc64/isa/clock.c

DELAY calls "DODELAY;" which is in /usr/src/sys/platform/pc64/isa/clock.c

while loop is entered: "while "(ticks_left > 0)"

Lots of "cpu_pause()"'s are done. Finally one of these calls does not return.

The last line printed on screen is:
"AK: calling cpu_pause. ticks_left: 1151353"

################

The while loop from "DODELAY" in /usr/src/sys/platform/pc64/isa/clock.c :

/*
 * Loop until done.
         */
        kprintf("AK: DODELAY: Loop until done.\n");
        while (ticks_left > 0) {
                tick = sys_cputimer->count();
#ifdef DELAYDEBUG
                ++getit_calls;
#endif
                delta = tick - prev_tick;
                prev_tick = tick;
                if (delta < 0)
                        delta = 0;
                ticks_left -= delta;
                if (doswitch && ticks_left > 0) {
                        kprintf("AK: calling lwkt_switch\n");
                        lwkt_switch();
                }

kprintf("AK: calling cpu_pause. ticks_left: %d\n", ticks_left);

cpu_pause();

kprintf("AK: just after cpu_pause. ticks_left: %d\n", ticks_left);
        }

kprintf("AK: just finished while loop\n");

I did a few more restarts. Sometimes it hangs after the cpu_pause i.e. outputs "AK: just after cpu_pause. ticks_left 1161010" with a gray cursor at the bottom left corner of the screen.

And sometimes it hangs in the middle of showing the output from "kprintf("AK: just after cpu_pause. ticks_left: %d\n", ticks_left)"
i.e. it outputs "AK: just after cpu_p" with a gray cursor at the end.

cdrom eject button works fine when in this hung state.

I tested with dfly-x86_64-2.12.0_RC.img. It doesn't have the problem.

This led me to test different stages of the master branch.

The problem appears to first start with commit 7e370202e053de3ef8357ef02e8b6f1e97694f97

The problem does not occur before that commit (i.e. with 95874ffdec65823430464b7869d8f0acf75cc226 or older).

Bug #2244: usb - system hangs during boot when USB mass storage device/stick is connected - 2.13.0.357.gcdb8af

Problem Description:

My system hangs during boot if a USB mass storage device/stick is connected.
By hang I mean no more output is shown and I cannot turn off/on num lock key on keyboard.
A hard reset is needed at this stage.

This prevents me from installing DragonFlyBSD from a USB stick.

I first noticed the problem when trying to boot via USB using the 2011 Nov 17th "DragonFly-x86_64-LATEST-IMG.img".
I haven't tried older versions.

I can connect and use the USB mass storage device/stick after boot without problem, and shutdown while attached without problem.

################

I recompiled kernel with "options USB_DEBUG" and booted with verbose logging option.
The last lines shown are:

uhci1: <UHCI (generic) USB controller> [tentative] port 0x1860-0x187f irq 17 at device 26.1 on pci0
uhci1: Reserved 0x20 bytes for rid 0x20 type 4 at 0x1860
uhci1: LegSup = 0x0010

I put kprintf's in various kernel source files to find where it hangs.
(Please note that I do not know anything about the kernel and very little about C).
This is what I found:

Function "uhci_pci_attach(device_t self)" is called from /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/uhci_pci.c

uhci_pci_attach() calls "err = uhci_init(sc);" which is in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/uhci.c

uhci_init() calls "uhci_globalreset(sc);" which is in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/uhci.c

uhci_globalreset() calls "usb_delay_ms(&sc->sc_bus, USB_BUS_RESET_DELAY);" which is in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/usb_subr.c

usb_delay_ms calls "delay((ms+1) * 1000);" with value 101000 (ms is 100).

...
...

It appears that "delay((ms+1) * 1000);" never returns. I think this because I have a kprintf() after the delay().

delay() is defined as DELAY in /usr/src/sys/bus/usb/usb_subr.c.
DELAY is defined in sys/systm.h but I cannot find the source file containing the DELAY function.

################

/usr/src/sys/bus/usb/usb_subr.c with the extra kprintfs:

/* Delay for a certain number of ms */
void
usb_delay_ms(usbd_bus_handle bus, u_int ms) {
       kprintf("AK: at start of function usb_delay_ms\n");

       /* Wait at least two clock ticks so we know the time has passed. */
       if (bus->use_polling || cold) {
               kprintf("AK: usb_delay_ms: in if cold and calling delay.\nAK: Value of ms after math: %d\n", (ms+1)*1000);
               delay((ms+1) * 1000);
               kprintf("AK: usb_delay_ms: finished delay\n");
       }
       else {
               kprintf("AK: usb_delay_ms: in else about about to do tsleep\n");
               tsleep(&ms, 0, "usbdly", (ms*hz+999)/1000 + 1);
       }

       kprintf("AK: at end of usb_delay_ms\n");
}

It works - I can now boot with USB stick attached. Thanks!
