Hi,[...]quoted
So I changed the dr_mode to otg instead of host and tried to configure a usb mass storage gadget but unfortunately didn't work, but this could be a driver problem, I got the following error UDC core: g1: couldn't find an available UDC As the devicetree should describe the hardware, and as far as I can see it should support the type-c port act as a gadget, I'm fine with changing the dr_mode, unless anyone have more information about this, the thing that makes me think a bit more is that, in the TI kernel this is set to host, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something or is just that was never tested.Are all interfaces (Type-A and Type-C) functional as Host when the dr_mode is set to "otg"? (Do USB devices connected to the interfaces enumerate on AM69-SK?) If yes, then it could be a DIP Switch setting that is related to OTG mode of operation or a USB-C Mux that needs to be configured.Yes, all interfaces (Type-A and Type-C) are functional as host when the dr_mode is set to "otg". Looking at SK-AM69 Processor Start Kit User's Guide (Rev. A) [1] I don't see any DIP Switch related to the OTG mode. Looks like the type-c connector connects directly to the SoC through a USB HUB (TUSB4041). [1] https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruj70a/spruj70a.pdf?ts=1733215039014
In that case, please post the patch setting "dr_mode" to "otg". As to why "peripheral"/"gadget" operation doesn't work could be addressed separately and seems to be independent of the device-tree. The reason for suggesting "otg" instead of "host" is to ensure that the device-tree describes the Hardware. Since "host" mode is still functional with "dr_mode" set to "otg", at-least for the use-cases that you have in mind, I believe that "otg" should be acceptable. Regards, Siddharth.
