[SOLVED] USB-related failure causing boot time slowdown

eizengan · 2025-03-11 03:05:51

Today my boot time increased by a full minute. I've found the following in dmesg output which clearly accounts for the entire increase, and indicates some USB-related culprit:

[    5.726820] usb 1-12: new high-speed USB device number 7 using xhci_hcd
[   11.026839] usb 1-12: device descriptor read/64, error -110

[   69.170230] usb usb1-port12: unable to enumerate USB device

This possibly stems from the following updates earlier today, before which I had no issues:

I've tried booting with no USB devices plugged in, but that changes nothing. Any idea how I might continue diagnosing this?

Most likely kernel related, you could try downgrading to 6.13.5 to confirm. Just from the kernel changelog nothing massively obvious unless you have a tegra/exynos USB chip... Is this a Samsung laptop? What do you get from

I'd assumed usb 1-12 is bus 1, port 12. Is that correct? If so, it doesn't show up in lsusb output:

I'll try playing kernel surgeon in a moment and report back

EDIT:

Was able to downgrade to 6.13.5-arch1-1, however the error persists

The device cannot be enumerated, so it won't show up - the question is what else is on the bus.
If you move keyboard, usb key/drive(?) and sound device to another hub, does the error follow any of them?

Also try the LTS kernel behavior.

eizengan · 2025-03-11 15:00:26

Paydirt!

Today the Search Algorithms deigned to show me this blog post, which suggested that there was a transient power issue which would disappear if the system was fully power cycled. I shut down, flipped the switch on the power supply, waited 60s to ensure full discharge, flipped the switch back, and then booted without any issues. (Re-)upgrading my kernel now to see if there's a regression, but hopefully this is solved.

Wish I knew root cause, but c'est la vie

EDIT:

Still stable after updating to 6.13.6-arch1-1. Thanks for the help folks; sorry there wasn't a more entertaining show

Looks like the misbehaving device was my wireless card, if I'm reading this correctly?

No sir - just Arch

I signed up to these forums just to say thank you @eizengan for coming back to post the solution you found! I was never going to visit Daniel Lange's blog to see it.

This helped me out a heap. I'd moved my computer from one room to another and all of a sudden it was taking forever to boot. I identified the issue using journalctl and couldn't figure out why a USB error had suddenly cropped up. Unplugged for 30 seconds, and back to booting up so quickly! Amazing. Thank you, thank you!

Glad to hear, but please not our guidelines on bumping old posts https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Genera … bumping%22 (though this issue and it's resolution is common enough that something to that effect will often turn up in one shape or another regardless)

Closing this old thread.
