Hi Tim

That kernel is missing some bits from USB gadget framework. The oldest 
we have some result for is 2.6.35 and even that requires some backported 
patches.

We have this linked at bottom of coreboot EHCI gadget wiki:

Chromebox debugging.

[Timothy Potter]

Hi Kyosti,   Thanks the pointers.  I tried adding the changes for dbgp from
the bug20-2.6.35-linaro to the 2.6.32 kernel I'm running on the phone.  You
can see the results here:

https://github.com/DengueTim/jordan-kernel/commits/AeroKernel

On startup, in /proc/kmsg I see:

<7>[    2.010284] dbgp gadget: setup: desc device
<7>[    2.010314] dbgp gadget: setup complete: 0, 8/8
<7>[    2.010467] dbgp gadget: setup: desc device
<7>[    2.010467] dbgp gadget: setup complete: 0, 18/18
<7>[    2.010589] dbgp gadget: setup: failure req 6 v 200
<7>[    2.010681] dbgp gadget: setup: failure req 6 v 200
<7>[    2.010772] dbgp gadget: setup: failure req 6 v 200
<7>[    2.016204] dbgp gadget: setup: failure req 6 v 3ee

I've attached the full log in case there's more clues as to why it's
failing.  Any more suggestions of what I should be looking at?

Tim.
