After a linux-firmware package update.
My USB 3 ports are no longer working for any USB device (2 or 3).
Ubuntu 22.04.1 Kernels 4.9 & 6.1.
lsusb -t lists the devices but the system does not want to use them.
When using lsusb -t to see the devices I also get several error lines displayed:
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1/rx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1/tx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/rx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/tx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1.2/rx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1.2/tx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-2/rx_lanes: No such file or device
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-2/tx_lanes: No such file or device
I have no idea if these messages are normal or related to my USB issue.
What do these messages mean or imply?
Do I need to fix something?
strace lsusb -t
it will be long but find the error code/exit and see what is shown just before it. Probably the driver link is missing
