This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

usb: dwc2: host: use hrtimer for NAK retries

to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-testing branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will be merged to the usb-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: usb: dwc2: host: use hrtimer for NAK retries

Modify the wait delay utilize the high resolution timer API to allow for more precisely scheduled callbacks.

A previous commit added a 1ms retry delay after multiple consecutive NAKed transactions using jiffies. On systems with a low timer interrupt frequency, this delay may be significantly longer than specified, resulting in misbehavior with some USB devices.

This scenario was reached on a Raspberry Pi 3B with a Macally FDD-USB floppy drive (identified as 0424:0fdc Standard Microsystems Corp. Floppy, based on the USB97CFDC USB FDC). With the relay delay, the drive would be unable to mount a disk, replying with NAKs until the device was reset.

Using ktime, the delta between starting the timer (in dwc2_hcd_qh_add) and the callback function can be determined. With the original delay implementation, this value was consistently approximately 12ms. (output in us).

    <idle>-0     [000] ..s.  1600.559974: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 11976
    <idle>-0     [000] ..s.  1600.571974: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 11977
    <idle>-0     [000] ..s.  1600.583974: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 11976
    <idle>-0     [000] ..s.  1600.595974: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 11977

After converting the relay delay to using a higher resolution timer, the delay was much closer to 1ms.

    <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  1956.553017: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 1002
    <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  1956.554114: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 1002
    <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  1957.542660: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 1004
    <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  1957.543701: dwc2_wait_timer_fn: wait_timer delta: 1002

The floppy drive operates properly with delays up to approximately 5ms, and sends NAKs for any delays that are longer.

Fixes 38d2b5fb75c1 ("usb: dwc2: host: Don't retry NAKed transactions right away")
