Hi,
(before anything, thanks for actually following the steps for bug
reporting. Much, much appreciated)

It's like the host is trying to go down to lower LPM states every 100ms:
irq/13-dwc3-236 [000] d..1 71.363262: dwc3_event: event (00000401): WakeUp [U0]
irq/13-dwc3-236 [000] d..1 71.363315: dwc3_event: event (00000401): WakeUp [U0]
irq/13-dwc3-236 [000] d..1 71.363423: dwc3_event: event (00006084): ep1out: Transfer In Progress [0] (SIm)

anything you can add here?

could you share a dump of your descriptors? It could be that the wake-up
latencies are incorrect which tricks the host into trying to go down to
lower LPM states too frequently.

correct, LPM is mandatory for USB3.0+. From the traces, we don't see any
errors, though. Everything looks fine.
Mathias, I have an old memory from my time at Intel when we discussed
this very fact. I can't remember what was the conclusion, but is there
anything the peripheral can do to tell the host to *not* enter U1/U2 so
frequently? If my memory doesn't fail me, I don't think there is
anything at all for the peripheral to do, right? Other than not
supporting U1/U2, which means STALLing the relevat SetFeature
requests. Do you know if that would still be a certifiable solution?
cheers
