A count in the thousands is therefore that many separate connect +events, not one runaway loop, and it indicts the device rather than the port. + +### 2. A parked board storms the second controller + +`ra6m5_ek` (`test/hil/tinyusb.json`, uid `8419032D32363657364EF4622D294B4E`, at +`13-3.3`) runs dfu firmware (`cafe:400b`) and re-enumerates every 1-2 seconds +continuously, wrapping the entire bus-13 devnum space (`...120 -> 127 -> 4 -> 6 -> 10`). +This is standing `hub_event` and Address-Device pressure on controller `03:00.0`, +concurrent with parallel usbtest batteries on the same silicon. + +The board is already listed in `boards-skip`, which is precisely why it storms: +`boards-skip` stops testing a board but never parks it, so it keeps running whatever +firmware it last received. Park-flash only runs as teardown of a board that actually +executed tests. + +### 3. The kernel `usbtest` control-queue case waits without a timeout + +`test_ctrl_queue` blocks on an untimed `wait_for_completion()` while `usbdev_ioctl` +holds the DUT's `device_lock`: + +``` +wait_for_completion+0x8a <- no _timeout variant +test_ctrl_queue+0x4ab [usbtest] +usbtest_do_ioctl+0x501 [usbtest] +usbdev_ioctl+0x6b8 [usbcore] +``` + +`--timeout 60` in `test/hil/usbtest.py` is a subprocess timeout only. `SIGKILL` is not +delivered to a task in uninterruptible sleep. `usbtest.py` already recognises this and +reports `HUNG`, then calls `usb_recover.sh root-cycle`. + +### 4. openocd inherits the convoy and the whole fleet dies + +Once a device lock is stuck, `port_event()` takes a child device's lock to warm-reset +it and blocks while still holding its hub's lock. Any later +`open("/dev/bus/usb/BBB/DDD")` against such a device blocks uninterruptibly: + +``` +usbdev_open+0xdc [usbcore] -> __mutex_lock +chrdev_open -> do_sys_openat2 -> __x64_sys_openat +``` + +That is the state of the three `openocd` processes at 04:16:51 (pids 207921, 207987, +208034) — the flasher, unkillable. Because one controller carries two buses, a single +convoy takes out every board on both, which is why the failure presents as the entire +fleet. + +The existing `HUNG` recovery cannot help here. A root-port VBUS cycle frees a +*device-lock* holder; it cannot free a lock held by a stuck *hub worker*, and on this +rig the cycle lands on the controller that is already wedged. + +### 5. Nothing bounds the damage, so one bad run becomes a CI outage + +- `hil-tinyusb` and `hil-tinyusb-esp` in `.github/workflows/build.yml` carry no + `timeout-minutes`. Only `hil-hfp-iar` does. +- `ci.lan` runs a single runner service, so there is one job slot. +- `test/hil/hil_test.py` bounds the pool with `POOL_TIMEOUT` (4200 s), and that guard + fires correctly — but the recovery path does not survive a D-state worker: + +```python +with Pool(processes=os.cpu_count() or 1, initializer=init_worker, initargs=initargs) as pool: + async_ret = pool.map_async(test_board, config_boards) + try: + mret = async_ret.get(timeout=POOL_TIMEOUT) + except MpTimeoutError: + pool.terminate() + pool.join() # blocks forever: a D-state worker never reaps + raise RuntimeError(f'HIL worker pool timed out after {POOL_TIMEOUT}s') +``` + +`multiprocessing` joins workers unbounded, so both `pool.terminate()` and +`pool.join()` hang, as does the `with Pool(...)` exit on the success path. Normal +`hil-tinyusb (tinyusb.json)` runs take 10-20 minutes; one recent run took 71.3 +minutes, which is the 70-minute guard firing and succeeding. The eight-hour run is the +pathological case. + +## Design + +### Step 0 — recovery (manual prerequisite) + +Power-cycle the PVE **host**, not the `ci` guest. A guest reboot is not sufficient; +hubs latch up across the PCIe reset, which the 10:48 reboot demonstrated. Nothing +below can be verified until the rig is clean. + +### Section 1 — CI containment + +**1a. Two layered timers.** An inner guard inside `hil_test.py` (`POOL_TIMEOUT`, 70 min) +that fails gracefully -- it writes a report naming the timeout and the dispatched boards, +shuts the pool down and exits -- and an outer `timeout-minutes` per rig job (85 for the +hil-tinyusb jobs; 115 for hil-hfp-iar, which also builds four boards with IAR in the same +job) as the backstop for when even exiting cannot free the runner. The ceiling must stay +ABOVE the inner guard, or GitHub kills the job before the report is written. + +> **Corrected after measurement.** An earlier revision cut the guard to 30 min on the +> reading that real runs take 9-17 min and everything longer was the old guard firing. +> That was wrong. `hil_lock.py` records 22.2/14.3/12.5/10.8 min at usbtest width 1/2/3/4, +> and raising the per-battery budget to 380s made hung boards cost more again. The 30 min +> guard then fired on 5 of the last 8 HIL job executions across both rigs, and because +> `map_async` is all-or-nothing each of those runs published a banner instead of any +> per-board result. Restored to 4200s, the value whose original rationale -- usbtest +> batteries are serialized fleet-wide, lengthening the tail -- was correct. + +**1b. Bound the pool shutdown.** Add a helper to `test/hil/hil_test.py`: + +```python +def _shutdown_pool(pool, grace=30): + """terminate() a Pool without ever blocking forever: multiprocessing joins its + workers unbounded, and a worker in uninterruptible sleep (wedged usbfs) never + reaps -- which would hold the runner's only job slot indefinitely.""" + t = threading.Thread(target=pool.terminate, daemon=True) + t.start() + t.join(grace) + return not t.is_alive() +``` + +On the `MpTimeoutError` path: write the report first, recording the boards that never +reported so the run stops producing an empty report directory; then `_shutdown_pool`; +then `os._exit(1)` if it did not return. The hard exit is the point — it is the only +way past a kernel-side unkillable child. Use the same helper for the `with Pool(...)` +exit path. + +**1c. Pre-flight rig health check.** `check_rig_health()` runs before the build and +**never aborts**. It probes `/proc` unprivileged (dmesg is restricted on the rig) for a +wedged `usb_hub_wq` worker, and reports a `/proc` too restricted to trust as its own +distinct cause rather than as a diagnosed fault. + +It is deliberately non-fatal: the rig is unattended and every remedy for a real wedge is +manual, so aborting would not fix anything -- it would discard the per-board results the +run can still collect and leave CI red until a human noticed. It emits a GitHub +`::error::` annotation and continues. The automatic containment is 1a and 1b, which bound +a stuck run and explain it without anyone touching the rig. + +**1d. Order the recovery correctly.** In `test/hil/usbtest.py`, attempt +`usb_recover.sh root-cycle` FIRST on a `HUNG` case, and only check for a wedged hub worker +*afterwards*. + +> **Corrected during implementation.** This section originally said to check for a wedged +> worker *before* the cycle and skip it on a hit. That is backwards. Our own stuck +> `testusb` holds the DUT's device lock, so any port event drives a hub worker into +> `usb_lock_device()` on it -- uninterruptible, so it reads `D` in ~100% of samples and the +> confirmation window makes the wrong verdict *more* confident, not less. Cutting VBUS is +> precisely what completes the in-flight URB, returns the ioctl and frees that worker, so +> gating on that signature would suppress the recovery in the exact ordering it exists for. +> A worker still wedged after the cycle is the genuinely unrecoverable case, and that is +> what the code now reports. + +## Verification + +- Unit-test `shutdown_pool` and the `hil_health` detectors against a synthetic `/proc`. + A real wedge cannot be manufactured on demand, so they are tested against fabricated + inputs rather than live hardware. +- Confirm the detectors flag a genuinely wedged rig, and return clean on a healthy one. +- One clean full-fleet `hil_test.py` run to prove `check_rig_health` does not + false-abort. + +## Out of scope + +- **`ra6m5_ek` park and its dfu reset loop.** Dropped by decision.

The load-bearing one: + +`dcd_ci_hs.c` now runs the RM-prescribed reset cleanup at the URI (reset-start) interrupt +but does not tell usbd until the Port Change Detect that ends the reset. For the whole +reset window — a minimum of 3 ms, typically 10–50 ms — usbd still believes the device is +configured while the DCD's queue heads have been zeroed. A class driver writing in that +window (`tud_hid_n_report()`, `tud_cdc_write_flush()`) primes a disabled endpoint over a +zeroed dQH, *after* the cleanup's flush, so the stale prime survives re-enumeration over a +buffer usbd has already released. On a 600 MHz M7 that window is enormous. Master had no +gap: cleanup and event were adjacent statements. + +The stack has no way to express "reset started" — `DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET` carries the +negotiated speed, which does not exist until the reset ends. That missing vocabulary is +the actual defect; the driver-level workarounds considered (deferring the memclr, guarding +primes with a private flag) only shrink the window. + +## Design + +### 1. Stack: split the bus-reset event into two edges + +`src/device/dcd.h`: + +```c +DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET_START, // reset signaling detected; bus unusable, speed unknown +DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET_END, // reset complete; .bus_reset.speed is final +... +#define DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET_END // backward compatibility +``` + +No new helper: `dcd_event_bus_reset(rhport, speed, in_isr)` keeps its name and emits +`_END`, so every other port is bit-identical to today; `_START` uses the existing +payload-free `dcd_event_bus_signal()`. The alias keeps unit-test/fuzz references +compiling. + +**Contract (documented in `dcd.h`):** `_START` is optional. A DCD that cannot distinguish +the two edges emits only `_END`, which stays self-sufficient — it performs the full +teardown with or without a preceding `_START`. + +`src/device/usbd.c`: +- `case DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET_START:` → `usbd_reset(rhport)` only; speed untouched. +- `case DCD_EVENT_BUS_RESET_END:` → unchanged (`usbd_reset()` + latch speed). +- `_usbd_event_str[]` gains both names. +- `TODO:` note that a DCD signalling both edges should not pay for two teardowns — track + a per-rhport "start seen" flag and skip the redundant `usbd_reset()` in `_END`, keeping + the unconditional teardown for the legacy single-event path. + +Cost, accepted deliberately: one extra queued event and one extra `usbd_reset()` per +enumeration on ci_hs only, bounded at one per reset against a default +`CFG_TUD_TASK_QUEUE_SZ` of 16 (queue pressure is the failure PR #3817 fixed, hence the +explicit note). + +### 2. ci_hs: split `bus_reset()` along the register/software line + +- **`bus_reset_begin()` — at URI, inside the reset window (UM10503 25.10.3):** ENDPTCTRL + type-reset loop, `ENDPTNAK`/`ENDPTNAKEN`, `ENDPTSETUPSTAT` and `ENDPTCOMPLETE` + write-back clears, bounded `ENDPTPRIME` drain, `ENDPTFLUSH` all. Emit `_START`. + Registers only — nothing in `_dcd_data` is touched, so no software structure is pulled + out from under a task mid-`dcd_edpt_xfer`. +- **`bus_reset_complete()` — at the PCI ending the reset:** re-flush, `tu_memclr(&_dcd_data)`, + EP0 queue-head re-init, dcache clean. Emit `_END` with the final PSPD speed. + +Two properties fall out: the re-flush kills any prime armed during the window without a +new state flag, and the memclr now happens at the same instant usbd is told, so the +"configured over zeroed queue heads" mismatch is eliminated rather than shrunk. Residual +exposure (a task priming exactly as the ISR memclrs) equals master's. + +The reason-dispatch (`pci_reason`, suspend/URI ordering) is unchanged; only the reset +case's body moves. + +### 3. ci_hs: one bounded-flush helper + +Extract `flush_endpoints(dcd_reg, mask)` — writes `ENDPTFLUSH = mask`, spins bounded by +`CI_HS_BUSY_SPIN` until those bits clear, returns `true` if they cleared — and route all +five flush sites through it (`bus_reset_begin`, `bus_reset_complete`, `dcd_deinit`, +`dcd_edpt_iso_activate`, the setup-time EP0 flush). The unified part is the mechanism +(one bound, one spin idiom, one return convention); callers keep their existing reactions, +all of which currently proceed regardless, and that stays true here — no caller gains new +error handling in this wave. Without this, §2 adds a fifth site to a file that already +carried four hand-rolled variants. + +### 4. Mechanical fixes + +`dcd_ci_hs.c` +- Setup-time EP0 flush waits for completion (via §3's helper) before the SETUP event is + queued, so the flush can no longer still be asserted when the task primes the response — + which also dissolves its interaction with the post-prime verify.

Eight occurrences over four days, across the Linux usbtest +battery's queued control and bulk tests. + +The cause turned out to be silicon: **Errata i.MX RT1064_A / RT1060_A ERR050101**. While an +isochronous IN endpoint is active, an IN token addressed to that same endpoint number on +another device sharing the host silently unprimes one of this device's OUT endpoints — +control, bulk, interrupt or isochronous. NXP states it cannot be detected by software and +raises no interrupt. Moving the usbtest example's iso IN endpoint from 3 to 7 (commit +`42870b15b`) cleared it: 340 consecutive wedge-free runs, where the board previously +re-wedged within hours. + +Before that was known, an earlier theory — a SETUP arriving mid-prime silently cancelling an +EP0 prime — produced a post-prime verification block in `qhd_start_xfer()`. That theory's +supporting capture (EP0's status ZLP armed but unprimed, the device a control transfer ahead +of the host) is explained by ERR050101 just as well, because the errata explicitly covers +*control* OUT endpoints and a control status stage **is** an OUT endpoint. The generalized +version of that verify was already reverted (`565bb0d99`) as both regression-prone and aimed +at a failure the vendor documents as undetectable in software. This spec removes what +remains of it. + +## Change + +Delete the post-prime block in `qhd_start_xfer()` (`src/portable/chipidea/ci_hs/dcd_ci_hs.c`): +the bounded `ENDPTPRIME` drain, the `ENDPTFLUSH`-on-timeout, and the +`ENDPTSTAT | ENDPTCOMPLETE` / `ENDPTSETUPSTAT` verdict. The tail becomes: + +```c + // start transfer + dcd_reg->ENDPTPRIME = TU_BIT(epnum + (dir ? 16 : 0)); + return true; +``` + +This removes two register spins and four volatile reads from every EP0 transfer, and with +them the false-fail path a reviewer flagged: a transfer the interrupt handler has already +completed reads identically to a cancelled prime. + +## Deliberately kept + +- **The pre-prime setup-lockout guard** directly above it — UM10503 25.10.8.1.1 step 4 + verbatim ("Before priming for status/handshake phases ensure that ENDPTSETUPSTAT is '0'"), + and older than the wedge theory. It also keeps `qhd_start_xfer()` returning `bool`, so + `dcd_set_address()`'s gating and the usbd breakpoint removal stay meaningful — no cascade. +- **The setup-time EP0 flush and its completion wait** — the flush is the 25.10.8.1.1 step-3 + remark; the wait exists because an unfinished flush can retire a freshly primed response, + an interaction independent of the verify. +- **The `BUS_RESET_START`/`END` split** and the rest of the review-driven hardening. +- Everything hardware-proven: the rf_tv fix, the lpc11u37 stack move, the lpc55s28 + onboarding, the lpc55 Make OHCI link, and the ERR050101 endpoint move itself. + +The commit message records the corrected attribution of the handoff capture, so the next +reader does not re-derive the superseded theory from the same evidence. + +## Validation + +The "with it" arm is already banked from 2026-08-16: 10x 30/30 batteries plus 15x TEST 27, +15x tests 9/10 and 10x tests 11/12/24, all clean. This is the second half of an A/B. + +1. **Rebase onto current master first** (master has moved: midi2/usbtmc/video), then rebuild — + otherwise the validated tree is not the tree that merges. +2. **Software gates:** `pre-commit run --all-files`; full example builds for + mimxrt1064_evk, lpcxpresso18s37, lpcxpresso11u37, lpcxpresso55s28; the two Make link + canaries (`host/cdc_msc_hid` on lpcxpresso55s28, `device/cdc_msc_throughput` on + lpcxpresso11u37); `ceedling test:all`. +3. **Hardware — mimxrt1064_evk only.** It is the only ci_hs board on the rig; the other two + run ip3511, which this change does not touch. Preconditions: CI idle + (`pgrep -f "hil_test.py [-]-retry"`), board lock held for the whole run. Flash with + `loadfile` (its built-in Program & Verify — JLinkExe V9.66 has no `verifyfile`), then + confirm re-enumeration as `cafe:4010` with serial `BAE96FB95AFA6DBB8F00005002001200`, and + confirm `lsusb -v` still reports the iso IN endpoint as **0x87** so a stale image cannot + masquerade as a pass. +4. **Runs:** 5x the full 30-case battery, then 15x `--tests 9,10,14,21` (queued control, ch9 + subset, both ctrl_out cases) — the control paths the verify actually protected, which a + plain battery samples only once per run. Print a `testusb` D-state scan after every + iteration. + +**Acceptance:** 5/5 batteries at 30/30, 15/15 loops, and no `testusb` D-state outliving its +case runtime. + +**Rollback trigger:** any control-case failure (errno 110 or 71 on cases 9, 10, 14, 21) or a +lingering D-state means the verify was load-bearing after all — restore it and record that +result in the commit message. A negative result is a finding, not a setback. |
