USB Setup failed (-32)

USB Setup failed (-32)

[benjmeier]

Hello,

I have a Olimex SAM9-L9260-Board (http://www.olimex.com/dev/sam9-L9260.html), which has an ARM-Processor.

I used many 
devices on this hardware, mostly over usb (UMTS-Modems, Sticks...). Everything worked.
I saw that i can use the 
ar9170usb-driver for wireless, so i bought a Netgear WN111v2 (http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ar9170).

Then 
i installed the needed firmware. But it didnt work. This is the output:

usb 1-1.3: new full speed USB device using 
at91_ohci and address 3
usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0846, idProduct=9001
usb 1-1.3: New USB device 
strings: Mfr=16, Product=32, SerialNumber=48
usb 1-1.3: Product: USB2.0 WLAN
usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: ATHER
usb 1-1.3: 
SerialNumber: 12345
cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
usb 1-1.3: reset full speed USB device 
using at91_ohci and address 3
usbcore: registered new interface driver ar9170usb
usb 1-1.3: firmware: requesting ar9170.
fw
usb 1-1.3: USB setup failed (-32).

I searched everywhere the errormessage with the errorcode -32, but i didnt find 
a meaning.
On the pc the wireless-stick works perfectly (with the same firmware).

Has someone an idea what i can do?


Thanks
Best Regards

Odd looking thing. The specs says its "USB 2.0", but it does
not support HIGH SPEED, just the USB 1.x FAST SPEED.

Actually, AR9170 is nearly EOL, if you're planning to get new gear
then you should stick to ath_htc compatible device.
currently there are lots of cheap AR9271 chips, but in the future
we can except more powerful AR701x/AR9018 solutions too.

again, "ohci" and "full speed", whereas on your PC it's more like:
usb x-y: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address z

well, -32 is -EPIPE and Documentation/usb/error-codes.txt tells you
that you either hit:

-EPIPE          The pipe type specified in the URB doesn't match the
                endpoint's actual type.
or:

-EPIPE (**)             Endpoint stalled.  For non-control endpoints,
                        reset this status with usb_clear_halt().

(**) This is also one of several codes that different kinds of host
controller use to indicate a transfer has failed because of device
disconnect.  In the interval before the hub driver starts disconnect
processing, devices may receive such fault reports for every request.

my "money" is on the first, because back in March Valentin Longchamp
fixed a problem which closely matches your issue, see:
"setup correct int pipe type in ar9170_usb_exec_cmd"
(Note, this patch went also to -stable), so the question you
should ask yourself: "Is my kernel really up to date?"
