 Posted: Thu Oct 07, 2021 9:07 pm Post subject: [Solved] Unable to configure kernel QE_GPIO |
 |
|
Hi
I have a PCI USB Card ASMedia ASM1042 which requires the USB_FHCI_HCD setting in the kernel.
This seems to need a symbol QE_GPIO to be set but there seems no way to set this. Using gentoo kernel 5.10.61
I know the card works and USB 2 support is working. USB3 and sd card support is not. The device is showing as using xhci_hcd module currently
03:00.0 USB controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller (prog-if 30 [XHCI])
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. P8B WS Motherboard
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 19, NUMA node 0
Memory at febf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32K]
Capabilities: [50] MSI: Enable- Count=1/8 Maskable- 64bit+
Capabilities: [68] MSI-X: Enable+ Count=8 Masked-
Capabilities: [78] Power Management version 3
Capabilities: [80] Express Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel
Kernel driver in use: xhci_hcd
Anyone any thoughts?
Thanks

| As I read the Kconfig language, QE_GPIO is probably only available for PowerPC. If you are on PowerPC, then you need to enable its prerequisite symbol (QUICC_ENGINE). |

Hi
I am on x86_64 standard amd64 kernel
I read the same information but the kernel config for the driver seems to suggest FHCI_HCD is needed - the option to include this only seems to be available with the QE_GPIO flag - which is Powerpc only.
Hence the confusion (and several hours working through kernel configs). What is annoying is that this card was working perfectly with this kernel until I had a disc failure (on the root partition of the previous setup).
I have had to install a new disc and re-install the os.
Since then, I have not found the correct setup.The old kernel config is on the failed disc. |

That's correct for the USB chipset on the card. Does it have any other funtionality that would require other drivers too?
The output of would be good.
If the card needs power, its probably only used by USB connected devices, so self powered devices would work but bus powered devices would not.

Hi
I've come to the conclusion the pcie adaptor (USB host) is faulty. There were reports of USB current overloads on a device and it proved to be the same adaptor. I've removed the pcie card and the errors have disappeared. Lost my USB3 front panel and pc-card reader for now. Ordered a replacement adaptor card and will see what happens.
Thanks for the assistance. |
