The previous version of the dwc2 overlay set the RX FIFO size to 256 4-byte words. This is not enough for 1024 bytes of the largest isochronous high speed packet allowed, because it doesn't take into account extra space needed by dwc2. RX FIFO's size is calculated based on the following (in 4byte words): - 13 locations for SETUP packets 5*n + 8 for Slave and Buffer DMA mode where n is number of control endpoints which is 1 on the bcm283x core - 1 location for Global OUT NAK - 2 * 257 locations for status information and the received packet. Typically two spaces are recommended so that when the previous packet is being transferred to AHB, the USB can receive the subsequent packet. - 10 * 1 location for transfer complete status for last packet of each endpoint. The bcm283x core has 5 IN and 5 OUT EPs - 10 * 1 additional location for EPDisable status for each endpoint - 5 * 2 additional locations are recommended for each OUT endpoint Total is 558 locations.

g-np-tx-fifo-size = <32>; g-tx-fifo-size = <256 256 512 512 512 768 768>; };I think I see the problem. IIUC the calculations and checks, all g-tx-fifo-size values + g-rx-fifo-size + g-np-tx-fifo-size must not exceed total_fifo_size. My RPi4 reports the total_fifo_size as 4080 (in /sys/kernel/debug/usb/fe980000.usb/hw_params). Linux mainline https://github.com/torvalds/linux/search?p=3&q=g-tx-fifo-size : The increase in value of g-rx-fifo-size exceeds the limit for the DTSI files we patched: Both bcm283x-rpi-usb-peripheral.dtsi and bcm283x-rpi-usb-otg.dtsi: 558 + 32 + 256 + 256 + 512 + 512 + 512 + 768 + 768 = 4174 > 4080 while the sum with the previous value of 256 reached just 3872 < 4080. The raspberrypi repo https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/search?q=g-tx-fifo-size : It has a different mix of the DTSI files dwc2-overlay.dts upstream-overlay.dts upstream-pi4-overlay.dts
yes these overlay files are vendor specific and doesn't exist in mainline. The upstream*dts were intended to "simulate" mainline behavior, but unfortunately differ in this case.
all of which define g-tx-fifo-size = <512 512 512 512 512 256 256>; Here the calculation holds: 558 + 32 + 512 + 512 + 512 + 512 + 512 + 256 + 256 = 3662 < 4080 My RPi4 uses one of these DTSIs, because my /sys/kernel/debug/usb/fe980000.usb/params says: g_rx_fifo_size : 558 g_np_tx_fifo_size : 32 g_tx_fifo_size[0] : 0 g_tx_fifo_size[1] : 512 g_tx_fifo_size[2] : 512 g_tx_fifo_size[3] : 512 g_tx_fifo_size[4] : 512 g_tx_fifo_size[5] : 512 g_tx_fifo_size[6] : 256 g_tx_fifo_size[7] : 256 IIUC the tx_fifo values in bcm283x-rpi-usb-peripheral.dtsi and bcm283x-rpi-usb-otg.dtsi files can be lowered to the values used and tested (at least by me) in the RPi repo. But this is outside of my knowledge, honestly I do not know what is the most appropriate distribution of the remaining fifo space among the g_tx_fifo buffers. Please can the RPi developers (Phil?) suggest a fix?
As author of the mainline bcm283x-rpi-usb-otg.dtsi i was trying to optimize the fifo sizes for EP 6 and 7. But i don't remember why. So my suggestion for a fix would be: g-tx-fifo-size = <256 256 256 512 512 768 768>; But i'm also unsure about the values.
Thanks a lot to Stefan and to everyone involved. Pavel.
