Re: Genesys USB3 hub shows up as USB2 (SOLVED)

Following up on my earlier report about a labeled-as-USB3 device showing
up as USB2:

The device is sold as:

  Sabrent USB Storage Drive Docking Station with 3 USB Ports

and has a SATA slot and 3 USB3 ports on the front.

It seems that there are two concepts out there:

  if you plug a device in slowly, it might be detected as usb2 only

  when you plug in a device, usb2 just works, but there is some link
  training and adapation for usb3 and if that isn't happy, usb3 just
  doesn't attach

I might have a marginal cable, or finicky connectors, or just not have
the right touch.  Now I can get it to work, after first figuring out
that 2/4 front panel and 2/4 rear panel ports are USB3, and the others
are USB2.  The rear ports seat the cable better, and the fact that I can
perceive this is a clue.

boot dmesg:

  xhci0 at pci0 dev 20 function 0: Intel 300 Series USB 3.1 xHCI (rev. 0x10)
  xhci0: 64-bit DMA
  xhci0: interrupting at msi0 vec 0
  xhci0: xHCI version 1.10
  usb0 at xhci0: USB revision 3.1
  usb1 at xhci0: USB revision 2.0
  uhub0 at usb0: NetBSD (0x0000) xHCI root hub (0x0000), class 9/0, rev 3.00/1.00, addr 0
  uhub0: 8 ports with 8 removable, self powered
  uhub1 at usb1: NetBSD (0x0000) xHCI root hub (0x0000), class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 0
  uhub1: 16 ports with 16 removable, self powered

and despite xHCI on both, it seems uhub0 is USB3.1 and uhub1 is USB2.1.
(USB3.1 is now spelled USB3.2 gen1, apparently, but that's not the
point.)

Note:
  uhub3 at uhub1, USB2
  uhub4 at uhub0, USB3



So nothing to be fixed in NetBSD, and just a data point that USB3 can be
finicky.
