Subject: [PATCH 1/4] dt-bindings: usb: generic-ehci: Allow describing the root hub ports
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 07:20:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110-usb-port-pairing-v1-1-9307e29d2ed2@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261110-usb-port-pairing-v1-0-9307e29d2ed2@gmail.com>

From: Arun Iyengar <aiyengar1990@gmail.com>

The USB 2.0 lines and the SuperSpeed lanes of a USB 3 connector don't
always reach the same host controller. On the Rockchip RK3588, the
SuperSpeed-only USB 3.0 host 2 (xHCI) is paired on the board with one
of the separate USB 2.0 hosts (EHCI/OHCI). Only the device tree knows
which EHCI root hub port shares a connector with which SuperSpeed port.

The USB core already reads a hub's OF graph, with one graph port per
downstream port, and uses it for the port connect type. Allow the same
"ports" node on EHCI controllers, so that a root hub port can be linked
to its usb-connector node.
