Bug Description
I have a Sony Vaio T-Series laptop. The usb 2.0 ports are not working, but the USB 3.0 port does. They appear in lspci and lsusb, but devices connected to them do not work. For example, a flash drive w/ a LED on it lights up and mounts on the 3.0 port but doesn't even light up on the 2.0 ports. There are no messages in dmesg when something is plugged into the 2.0 port. This behavior is the same on ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04.

This is also happening to me. I've tried Ubuntu, Debian testing, Mageia2, and OpenSuse with the exact same results.
My output of lsusb and lspci is the same as for Barry Bulls, so I'm not uploading it again.
Cheers.

Hi,
Could you provide 'dmesg' just after your plug your usb mass storage
device into the 2.0 port?
Also could you try to plug other devices(hub, uvc camera, ...) into the 2.0
port to see if it works?
From the 'lsusb' log, there are many devices found in the 2.0 bus, so it
is a bit confused that you think the 2.0 port doesn't work.
Thanks,

Here's the relevant lsusb and dmesg outputs. I'm using a M-Audio FastTrack audio interface. As you can see, the interface is recognized and shows up in lsusb and dmesg when plugged into the USB3.0 port, but is not when plugged into the USB2.0 ports.

Why aren't you so generous to post more logs of 'dmesg' under USB 2.0 case?

The process I went through was to log in and wait until everything was loaded, ran dmesg to verify that it was the same (except for timestamps) as in the original bug report, then cleared it. Then i did the before/after on the USB 3.0 port, then cleared the log, then attached the device to the usb2.0 ports. That single line is the only thing in dmesg and it's the message about disconnecting the device from that port. There are no messages when the device is plugged into the USB2.0 ports. They just don't work at all. However, they work fine under Windows.

Y confirm the post #31. Plugging and unplugging a pendrive in the USB2 port shows nothing in dmesg. The same pendrive works correctly on the USB3 port.
The same with a wireless mouse, other two pendrives, and two different webcams.

Sorry, it is hard to guess what is issue without any 'dmesg' log.

That is the issue. Nothing happens when you plug devices into the USB 2 ports. No changes in the dmesg logs, no change in lsusb output. Nothing. The full dmesg log is attached to the bug.
ATIpro (somebody2112) wrote : | #35 |
+1. Nothing happens when you plug devices into the USB 2 port.
I've tried to check if there is any low level activity like usb interrupts or packet transmissions, and found nothing. Port is definitely powered. In preinstalled win8 this port worked fine, and in uefi bios it works too. Problem starts only during kernel boot process. May be usb controller initialization problem? I've checked latest stable kernel 3.9.6, problem is still there. Can you provide list with the information which will be useful to track the issue?
P.S. I've got Sony Vaio SVT1112S1 laptop.

Hi Barry and ATIpro,
Could you plug the devices into USB 2.0 port first and run below command
to see if your devices can be found in USB 2.0 bus?

I've tried that, but it doesn't help. I don't think, that it is a power issue. I have one usb device, which lights one led after being plugged to not working port, but it doesn't light another led after enumeration is completed as it should. It looks like kernel doesn't get an event about apperance of new device.

AFAIK, no kernel event after plugging device should be caused by
- no power from port which may be cut off after port runtime PM introduced
or
- ehci root hub doesn't work
If you are sure there is no any ehci interrupts(
after plugging the device, I guess that there is no power from the port. And
you can connect your cell phone to the port and check if it is capable of
becoming in charging state.

The above two devices are attached on USB 2.0 bus, and they have

There are interrupts from two USB 2.0 buses, and you may try 'rmmod ath9k'
to see if new devices can be recognized on usb3.
Or if you can build kernel by yourself, you can enable 'CONFIG_USB_DEBUG'
& 'CONFIG_
build one kernel with these debug options for your test.

Yes, it's internal hardware(bluetooth module and uvc camera). They are working.

I've tried that. But it doesn't help. I see, that there are interrupts on ehci_hcd:usb3 during bluetooth activity. I also see, that numers in line ehci_hcd:usb4 are not changing at all.

I'll try to do that, but it will take some time.

The 'dmesg' is very clear, but looks still no bad things found, we
can see USB1/USB4 are USB2.0 bus, and built-in devices are
recognized in USB1 bus, but I am not sure the external USB 2.0 ports
belong to which bus(1 or 4).
Could you do the below tests so that we can see if USB4 bus can be
wakeup? If not, the problem should be that something is wrong with
port routing setting.
- plug one device into USB 2.0 port
- run the below scripts and post out the 'dmesg' info:
#!/bin/sh
find /sys/bus/

The 2.0 bus can be waken up but still can't find external devices connected,
so looks like some x86 specific setting disables the two ports.
I have no idea on the bug, and reported it on linux-usb list already.

This issue exist in Debian 6 with kernel 2.6.32. I haven't tested older kernels, but I can do that if it helps.
Bios (UEFI) of this laptop is very limited in terms of configuration, there is no usb configuration at all. This problem exists both in legacy and native uefi modes.
During bios initialization this port works. So I can plug there flash drive with live linux distribution and successfully see GRUB/Syslinux/etc from it. But during running initramfs LED on flash drive stops glowing and after timeout I see Busybox line with error about missing root partition.

Yes, upstream guy thought it might be caused by BIOS, see
http://
Could you try to upgrade to a newer BIOS version?
Or have you done the tests below?
- plug one 2.0 devices to 2.0 port, then power on machine to see
if they can be found in 2.0 bus
If not, I suggest you to give it a try.

At the moment I don't have preinstalled windows. Without it I don't see any way to upgrade bios, because I can't find any downloadable firmware updates.
Sony's consumer support answered that they support only windows. If usb port works there everything is fine and they are not interested in fixing linux issues.

I've installed windows and updated bios.
So, before upgrade it was

But really nothing changed. Port still don't work.
I've also checked that this port works fine in pure windows 7 without any Sony drivers. So it's not a wired hardware issue, it's a bug in linux kernel. I'll try to test other operating systems like freebsd, may be port will work there.

I have the same issues and results over here with my sony T series (running fedora). I've been banging my head against a wall for hours.
When plugged into the WORKING 3.0 port, the device is shown as being on the same bus # as the 2.0 port. Could it be a problem with the controller?

I'm not sure it would be an issue with the controller itself, as everything "Just Works" on Windows.

It has and LED that is active for a few seconds when first plugged in to the 2.0 port then it just goes off.

Why would you deliberately make this whole process a pain in the a** for us Ubuntu users and force people to create duplicate bugs?! I've never seen a bugtracker where people are actively encouraged to create duplicate bugs.
Is there somewhere a guideline to read after the reason for that, atleast? Just actively invalidating the bug without telling the reason is kind of strange... Why is this bugreport invalid?
The bug says "I have a Sony Vaio T-Series laptop. The usb 2.0 ports are not working". Obviously EVERY owner of this laptop and obviously it's some bug in the kernel USB system, is it not?
Then again, how likely is it that Canonical fixes a Kernel bug.. might as well install Fedora. RedHat atleast has a reputation for kernel development.

The bug is still confirmed, as different users have reported it and comfirmed they are experiencing it.
Leaving "Invalid" on the Linux project, as bugs are tracked through the "linux" package in Ubuntu.
Dariusz Duraj, it does not matter. The kernel still has a bug, and here's the right place to file the bug report. Also, the kernel is not the "vanilla" from kernel.org, it's beed modified and compiled on the Ubuntu project servers, so it may be a problem related to that.

Can you explain how it works then? This is a big that has been
confirmed to be affecting many people. Are you saying they all need to
file separate bug report in order for this to get any attention? I was
under the impression that it was better to have one issue for the same
bug rather than many issues duplicating it. If you're saying that I
have to break my primary work environment in order for this issue to
be resolved at an unknown time in the future, then maybe this isn't
the distribution for me.

Christopher M. Penalver, not to be insistent, but I am part of the BugSquad and so far nobody said anything about closing a bug just because one of the affected users is not able to reproduce it.
The issue IS reproducible; if not by the original reporter, by 9 other people that have marked this bug as "it affects me".
If nobody comes forward to provide information related to this bug, after 60 days the bug will be automatically marked as "Invalid", but not before.
Nearly all the commenters are against closing this bug; what you are asking them to do is overflow Launchpad with duplicate bug reports: this would lead to a massive invalidation due to bug duplication and to extreme complications in handling the bug, because of infinite copies of the bug report in the system.
This is how it works; please, do not change the status again.

While Christopher has not said it in this bug report, kernel bugs are frequently hardware specific and while it may seem that everyone has the same hardware this is is difficult to tell without getting detailed information about the hardware from each user experiencing the bug report. The easiest way to get this detailed information is to have each individual report a separate bug report using 'ubuntu-bug linux' from their system. Then it is easier to ensure that each bug is fixed, by examining the hardware of each system affected, by whatever fix is found.

would point out that in this case the laptops are all in the same series
and the hardware appears to differ only in the details of screen size and
number of physical ports. The annoying thing for some users, I'm sure, is
that while I'm relatively lucky in that my 15 inch notebook has 3 usb
ports, one of which works, there are smaller versions of the same notebook
that do not have any usb 3 ports, so none of them work.

Unfortunately this bug has been marked as invalid because I'm no longer running Ubuntu on my laptop (as it's my primary workstation and can't deal with these issues), but am now running it in a VM. However, https:/

I'm having the same problem in my desktop, I'm using a GIGABYTE GA-970A-D3 motherboard, usb 3.0 working but not usb 2.0, I only have 2 3.0 usb ports, only enough to use my keyboard and mouse. I'm being forced to use windows because under windows all ports work fine, but it seems Ubuntu team does not even have idea of what is going on with this bug, since you can see the lack of interest from the team to fix it. Maybe someone here has tried another Linux based operating system that works, I would like to try it

Sorry, I'm being forced to use windows, since I only have 2 working ports which are only enough to use my keyboard and mouse , Ubuntu is useless to me right now, until the bug is fixed I will not install Ubuntu

Hello, I fix this problem in my desktop, I use an AMD Processor and I found that Enabling the option IOMMU, all ports work fine, For those who have a BIOS with that option try to enable it

Just a heads-up, this bug was opened again:

and it was sent upstream to linux-people:
penalvch (penalvch) wrote : | #97 |
jorge, no this bug was not opened again as this is a different model Sony VAIO. Bugs are not lumped together in a dog pile by symptom, but on a per specific hardware model, per symptom, and per reporter basis. As this bug is closed, no further comments are helpful here.

Ok, it was just a note to people that may beinterested here, or arrived to this bug report from google.
Sorry for using the "bug was opened again", did not mean bug as defined in your launchpad's database schema. As we users use the word "bug", this is the same bug.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Bugs/ FindRightPackag e. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.
To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +bug/1172908/ +editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.
