Peripheral USB Host[edit | edit source]

The USB Host port requires to configure the USB VBUS regulator and the gpio used for enabling the 5V USB power switch.

Device tree configuration[edit | edit source]

Here below an example of device tree configuration used on standard DAVE's kit for the AXEL Lite SOM:

From imx6qdl-axelcommon.dtsi:

    regulators {
        compatible = "simple-bus";
 
        reg_usb_h1_vbus: usb_h1_vbus {
            compatible = "regulator-fixed";
            regulator-name = "usb_h1_vbus";
            regulator-min-microvolt = <5000000>;
            regulator-max-microvolt = <5000000>;
            gpio = <&gpio2 11 0>;
            enable-active-high;
        };
    };
...
...
&usbh1 {
    vbus-supply = <&reg_usb_h1_vbus>;
    status = "okay";
};

Accessing the peripheral[edit | edit source]

Linux messages at boot time[edit | edit source]

When a USB peripheral is inserted, in the following example a memory mass storage device, the kernel recognizes the device (i.e. xlass, vendor id, product id, etc.)

Additional information[edit | edit source]

If the root file system configuration does not automatically mount the partition, it is possible to mount the device using the following command:

root@desk-mx6:~# mkdir -p /mnt/usb
root@desk-mx6:~# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb
[  831.081734] FAT-fs (sda1): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
