Hello!
Last week my work was focusedon finding bug in omap_ehci driver. The
issue is, I cannot reset the ULPI by software. Further investigation
showed up, that, there is a bit which indicates if ULPI is busy or has
done its job. It indicates being busy even before the driver begin
doing its job.
I was pointed, that, beside resetting the PHY by gpio, I could also
power down it by PMIC, and this is what I am doing at the moment.
Moreover, I have found, that two years ago, somebody had the exact
same problem, and posted it on beagleboard mailing list (without any
responses nor solutions). I sent an email to him, and waiting for the
response.
If powering off and on the device will not fix the problem, I will
discuss further plans with my mentor. I can either:
* do the refactoring of the existing code, and then come back to
omap_ehci driver even if GSoC is finished, because I still want to
develop this port
* continue working on omap_ehci
