5.4 - Adding USB2.0 Support

[Benjamin Keating]

Hey List,

So I have a few gigs of data I'd like to xfer over USB and version 1
is just wayyyy to slow. However, I successfully plugged in my external
USB drive, mounted it, xfer data to/from it and everything worked
wonderfully, just incredible slow.

So i read the handbook (
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/usb-disks.html
) and recompiled my kernel, changing only the config file adding:

device ehci

and then built the kernel the "new way" as suggested. Rebooted, things
seem to of started up properly, here are my dmesg's relivant parts:


%< ---------------------------------------
uhci0: <Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-A> port 0xcc00-0xcc1f

ehci_pci_attach: companion usb0
ehci_pci_attach: companion usb1
ehci_pci_attach: companion usb2
ehci_pci_attach: companion usb3
usb4: EHCI version 1.0
usb4: companion controllers, 2 ports each: usb0 usb1 usb2 usb3
usb4: <EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller> on ehci0
usb4: USB revision 2.0
uhub4: (0x8086) EHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub4: 8 ports with 8 removable, self powered
>% ---------------------------------------

So now, I plug in my powered on external USB hdd and look at my dmesg
and see this instead of what the handbook says, which was the same for
me, before i recompiled my kernel:

%< ---------------------------------------
usb4: unrecoverable error, controller halted
usb4: blocking intrs 0x10
usb4: port reset timeout
>% ---------------------------------------

Any ideas? Im lost!
