Failed to force device to 1 (ret -3) #3

Closed benruijl closed 7 years ago

benruijl commented 7 years ago

When I run sudo ./force_dell_tbt 1 on my XPS 13 9360 with kernel 4.13.3-1, I get the error:

Failed to force device to 1 (ret -3)

The journalctl output is:

DMAR: Allocating domain for dcdbas failed

@benruijl Does that consistently happen for you? It seems to me that the kernel couldn't allocate the buffer needed to do a SMI request.

Also FYI, this tool is no longer needed with http://git.infradead.org/users/dvhart/linux-platform-drivers-x86.git/commit/ce6a90027c10f970f872de5db0294f9e3e969f1c and https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/blob/master/plugins/thunderbolt-power/fu-plugin-thunderbolt-power.c

It happens consistently.

Are you saying that I can use fwupd now to update to NVM21? Or do I not have to force the device anymore?

superm1 commented 7 years ago

Do other SMI requests fail too? Can you check on your BIOS version?

Force powering the device is only needed if you don't have something plugged in to type-C. If you plug something in the TBT controller will wake up. fwupd can do the update now yes.

This repository is less relevant, but I haven't updated readme to reflect it .

How can I test that? This is the output of fwupd:

I do not see the my thunderbolt device there, but I do see devices that belong to my DA200, such as the ethernet port. I also don't know how I can check the firmware version for thunderbolt, since the DKMS module doesn't compile anymore on 4.13.

Cheers,

Ben

Hmm, thunderbolt plugin did land in fwupd 0.9.7. Is it compiled into your build? What distro? Do you not have a thunderbolt kernel module? modinfo thunderbolt

benruijl commented 7 years ago

I use Arch Linux, everything vanilla. I do have the module:

How can I see the version of the firmware? /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/ is empty (also after modprobe).

Well I guess the controller is only waking up if it's a Thunderbolt device hooked up, not any type C device. Do you have one you can hook up?

If not, backport that kernel patch I linked above to your kernel and you should be able to wake it up using that.

benruijl commented 7 years ago

Sadly I don't have one at hand. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the help!
