That must have mislead Greg. Getting back to the topic AFAICS from what John said in here https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CALAqxLWGujgR7p8Vb5S_RimRVYxwm5XF-c4NkKgMH-43wEBaWg@mail.gmail.com/ AOSP developers somehow hardcoded a USB-controller UDC name in the internal property called "sys.usb.controller" with a value "ff100000.dwc3". That value is generated by the kernel based on the corresponding DT-node name. The property is then used to pre-initialize the system like it's done here: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/rootdir/init.usb.configfs.rc Since we changed the DT-node name in the recent kernel, we thus changed the UDC controller name so AOSP init procedure now fails to bring up the Linux USB-gadget using on the older UDC name. UDC is supposed to be ff100000.usb now (after this patch has been merged in). What problems I see here: 1) the AOSP developers shouldn't have hard-coded the value but read from the /sys/class/udc/* directory and then decided which controller to use. As it's described for instance here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/usb/gadget_configfs.txt 2) even if they hard-coded the value, then they should have used an older dts file for their platform, since DTS is more platform-specific, but not the kernel one. Even if a dts-file is supplied in the kernel it isn't supposed to have the node names unchanged from release to release. Regards, -Sergey > > Best regards, > Krzysztof
