When unplugging RTL8152 Fast Ethernet Adapter which is plugged into an USB HUB, the driver would get -EPROTO for bulk transfer. There is a high probability to get the soft/hard lockup information if the driver continues to submit Rx before the HUB completes the detection of all hub ports and issue the disconnect event.I don't think it is a good idea. For the other situations which return the same error code, you would stop the rx, too. However, the rx may re-work after being resubmitted for the other cases. Best Regards, Hayes
Hi Hayes, Sometimes Rx submits rapidly and the USB kernel driver of opensource cannot receive any disconnect event due to CPU heavy loading, which finally causes a system crash. Do you have any suggestions to modify the r8152 driver to prevent this situation happened? Regards, Jason
