IMO you can just perform resume of &dwc->xhci->dev instead of resuming dwc3. Since, dwc3 is parent of xhci that will trigger resume of dwc3 as well.
I am not sure this is good enough but it seems can solve some problems, then we do not need resume/suspend host in dwc3 core.
In that case can we proceed with this patch: [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg158682.html
For your platform you can pick this patch and resume dwc->xhci->dev resume from your glue driver. Do you have any other concerns?
The same concern I explained in your patch. If we power off the controller when suspend, how can controller work well as host if we do not issue dwc3_core_init()? Suppose below cases: device attached: resume glue layer (power on dwc3 controller) ---> resume dwc3 device ---> resume xHCI device
Just resume won't do. XHCI also needs to be reinitialized.
no device attached: suspend xHCI device ---> suspend dwc3 device ---> suspend glue layer (we can power off the dwc3 controller now)
Though now there are no upstreamed glue drivers will power off dwc3 controller, should we consider this situation?
Can we discuss on that patch thread itself?
How will this platform handle runtime PM with only external HUB connected? Will runtime suspend take place? Would connecting device to that HUB's port be detected?
No, it should not suspend xHCI now. Maybe need get xHCI device usage counter for this case in case xHCI can suspend automatically if there are no device connected.
Since, there is no upstreamed glue driver currently doing, we can probably ignore that. Also, above sequnence wont work without xhci init.
Also, for this particular case glue driver can take care of re-initializing of dwc3 core as well.
Glue layer can not re-initialize of dwc3 core now since dwc3_core_init() is not exported. Let's see what Felipe's suggestion on your patch thread.
