the following patch was just integrated into master: commit 3385ebe59a452ce66e0180641de271b028a41e7e Author: Tobias Diedrich ranma+coreboot@tdiedrich.de Date: Sun Mar 13 21:19:45 2016 +0100
pcengines/apu1: Enable USB overcurrent detection.
The two external USB ports and the internal USB header have overcurrent protection chips with the low-active overcurrent signal connected to the chipset.
The power-on default for this register disables the software detection of overcurrent conditions.
After setting the register Linux correctly shows the overcurrent condition in the kernel log (tested by shorting the 5v and gnd lines on J14 / the internal USB header): [ 2015.229921] usb usb1-port3: over-current condition [ 2015.449925] usb usb1-port4: over-current condition
Simlar for the external ports: [ 256.237916] usb usb1-port1: over-current condition [ 256.458084] usb usb1-port5: over-current condition
Note that each signal is shared between two ports: usboc0#: External ports (port1/5) usboc1#: Internal ports (port3/4)
