Hi Sebastian,

I am having difficulty articulating my thoughts clearly right now;
please bear with me as I try to explain.

The USB host USB2 and USB3 on the Rock 5B, 5BP, and 5T is powered by the
USB_HOST_PWREN_H gpio pin which is used to enable vcc5v0_host host
regulator which ensures proper power sequencing and management for onboard
Double-USB-HOST.

Update the u2phy2_host node to reference the correct phy-supply.

u2phy2_host is connected to an onboard USB hub chip, which is
powered by &vcc5v0_sys as the comment says.

You can see this on page 9 of the v1.45 ROCK 5B schematics (page
name USB2HUB). The usb hub chip uses VCC5V0_SYS + VCC_3V3_S0 and is
connected to USB20_HOST0_DP, USB20_HOST0_DM. The related USB
controller for that in the upstream DT is &usb_host0_ehci, which
in turn is using &u2phy2_host. Thus at least for the ROCK 5B the
existing DT is correct. Properly describing the downstream port
VBUS regulator would require something like the following series:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250911-v6-16-topic-usb-onboard-dev-v4-0-1af288125d74@pengutronix.de/ (local)
Actually, the Radxa Rock 5 B doesn't have an onboard USB hub chip.
Seriously? I provided the exact page for the hub chip in the
schematics and it's easily visisble in lsusb too.
My apologies for the confusion. To clarify, this board lacks a USB hub
chip that matches the
detected USB IDs and is capable of powering both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 interfaces.

This is the reason we have a separate power regulator for USB 2.0 and
USB 3.0 ports
and Type-C controllers.

There is a USB2HUB -> U90078 FE1.1s_QFN chip (page 27) in the schematics,
It's probably connected to the PCIE M.2 NGFF for Bluetooth

I don't want to waste my time and expect a certain level of quality
and this is certainly way below it...
Please accept my apologies for the miscommunication.

Could you check the enable status of the USB_HOST_PWREN_H pin in the schematics?

USB_HOST_PWREN_H -> VCC5V0_USB20_HOST0 / VCC5V0_USB20_HOST2
USB_HOST_PWREN_H -> VCC5V0_USB30_HOST0 / VCC5V0_USB30_HOST1

My current patch is trying to address this issue.
