Lightbulb 17.10 Problems brainstorm

I have an idea, to brainstorm some ideas (possibly with people who have deeper knowledge on EVDI and USB).

I was able to run 3-dsplay setup by editting /etc/default/grub and update line with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to look like this:

Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash intel_iommu=off pcie_port_pm=off acpi_backlight=none acpi_osi=Linux acpi_osi=! acpi_osi=\"Windows 2009\""
And adding following file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Code:
Section "Device"
  Identifier "Intel Graphics"
  Driver "Intel"
  Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
  Option "TearFree" "false"
  Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
  Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
  Option "ExaNoComposite" "false"
  Option "Tiling" "true"
  Option "Pageflip" "true"
  Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight"
  BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
However i still have random disconnects (sometimes more, sometimes less frequent).

The dmesg output during error is always following:

Code:

Also my dmesg log is flooded with messages like this (only when I have 2 displays via the dock, if i have only one or one via dock and one directly via HDMI, there is no kernel spam):
Code:
[wto lis  7 09:13:33 2017] [drm:drm_wait_vblank [drm]] *ERROR* Unsupported type value 0x4000059, supported mask 0x7400003f

Im most interested in interpretation of following lines:
Code:
[wto lis  7 09:13:30 2017] usb 4-1.1: Disable of device-initiated U1 failed.
[wto lis  7 09:13:30 2017] usb 4-1.1: Disable of device-initiated U2 failed.

[wto lis  7 09:13:30 2017] usb 4-1.1: Set SEL for device-initiated U2 failed.
AFAIK U0-U3 are USB3 power states for fast suspend (LINK). Does anyone have an idea why the disable fails? I have tinkered with power levels, control, autosuspend of USB devices, but none of it seems to work.

I hope we can come up with something, because I would really like to use this D6000 station for something more than ultra-expensive USB hub...

PS. Why are DLM logs base64 encoded binaries?
PS2. Why you guys @ DisplayLink seem not to see this issue?

I don't see anything like your output via dmesg. Of course, I am using a D1000 with only one external monitor, a flash drive, and a Logitech webcam attached to it.

What do you have attached to your D6000?

Your setup seems much more complex than mine.

I execute the following command.

Code:
dmesg | grep -i usb | tail
Here is all I see.

Code:
[   33.652821] usb usb4: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0003
[   33.652822] usb usb4: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1

[   38.636173] xhci_hcd 0000:39:00.0: USB bus 3 deregistered
I have a second USB hub attached to my machine in addition to the D1000.

The dmesg output with error is when disconnect happens.

My setup is:
Samsung FHD display via HDMI
Dell FHD display via DisplayPort
Lenovo USB mouse
Lenovo USB keyboard
Phillips headphones via 3.5mm jack (no microphone)


Here is my output (with one DisplayPort monitor attached)

Code:

I recommend taking everything off the D6000 but one external display (try each external display as the lone display) and then add each other device back to the D6000 one by one (in every combination) until you see the error messages. If it's just a specific device combination that causes the problem, you should be able to pin it down in a reasonable amount of time. You may have to obtain a second USB hub (as I have) in order to follow the suggested procedure.

Hi,
I have tested multiple combinations and seems that following error:
Code:
[pią lis 10 09:12:26 2017 <    0,000072>] [drm:drm_wait_vblank [drm]] *ERROR* Unsupported type value 0x121, supported mask 0x7400003f
happens only when I connect one specific Samsung display (tested it on coworker's display - also Samsung, also via HDMI) and no spam happened. Fortunately I will have it replaced soon.

Today i intend to test all peripherals connected to laptop (with the Samsung display via HDMI) and Dell display via DP via Dock to see if I will get any disconnects. Wish me luck!

Hello again,
after testing some combination I ended up with USB mouse & keyboard + DELL display connected via dock and Samsung via HDMI. The tell displays goes blank from time to time but does not disconnect (display manager thinks the display is still there, I can even move windows from that display).

On error, dmseg says:

Code:

Funny thing is, it seems to be totally random. Yesterday it happened only once. Today it already happened 4 times...

One more thing I noticed today is that sometimes dmesg spits out a bunch of these:
Code:
[pią lis 17 08:53:20 2017 <    0,009739>] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: AER: Corrected error received: id=00e8

[pią lis 17 08:53:20 2017 <    0,000008>] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0:    [12] Replay Timer Timeout
Which seems to be an error with my SSD disk:

Default Same issue here

I am using Ubuntu 18.04 on Dell XPS 15 (9550) laptop. I updated the firmware for both the Dell laptop and the Dell DisplayLink D6000
I have two Dell U2415 monitors connected to the display ports. The DisplayLink randomly disconnects and I see the following log messages:
