Linux USB Device

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

Hi guys!

I'm currently trying to make the zedboard appear as a USB device for my host computer (running W7 and Ubuntu12.04).

I have tried with both the most recent kernel from Xilinx and with the kernel from Analog Devices from their reference design(3.3 I think).

I have been able to compile down modules for g_mass_storage, g_file_storage, g_hid etc...

I would be perfectly happy as soon as the zedboard enumerates correctly... The Gadgets have been compiled to modules and after power on for the board, I try to load the g_mass_storage module with args:

modprobe g_mass_storage file=/str/something

This command works fine, and gives the following dmesg output:

g_mass_storage gadget: controller 'xusbps-udc' not recognized
g_mass_storage gadget: Mass Storage Function, version: 2009/09/11
g_mass_storage gadget: Number of LUNs=1
lun0: LUN: removable file: /str/backing_file
g_mass_storage gadget: Mass Storage Gadget, version: 2009/09/11
g_mass_storage gadget: userspace failed to provide iSerialNumber
g_mass_storage gadget: g_mass_storage ready
xusbps-udc: bind to driver g_mass_storage

However, that is where my luck ends... Trying to insert it into one of my host PCs is not very successful, my Ubuntu gives the following output in dmesg:

...
[2415.212220]usb 2-5: new high-speed USB device number 7 using ehci hcd
[2415.282304]hub 2-0:1.0 unable to enumerate USB device on port 5
[2415.544223]usb 2-5: new high-speed USB device number 8 using ehci hcd
[2415.614193]hub 2-0:1.0 unable to enumerate USB device on port 5
[2415.876221]usb 2-5: new high-speed USB device number 9 using ehci hcd
[2415.946815]hub 2-0:1.0 unable to enumerate USB device on port 5
...

Anyone having succeeded in creating an USB device?

    Hi, I'd like to make the zedboard visible as device using USB but  I've not been able to do this. I've done some test but without success. The strange issue is that the driver seems not receive any event when I plug/unplug the USB cable.

    Any suggestion on how proceed. There is any specific kernel version where you have tested this functionality?

    Thanks in advance,
    Manuele
