Apparently, it was decided to map all Synopsys registers through
a single address/data register pair.

The Synopsys datasheet mentions two register blocks:

The one register with clk in the name is SSC_CLK_CNTRL.
It has a 7-bit sub-field called SSC_CLK_DIV125.
"Sets SSC reference clock to 20 MHz." Default val = 7

These are PHY signals, which are mapped to registers in
my SoC, AFAICT.

COMMONONN
Common Block Power-Down Control
Function: Controls the power-down signals in the HS Bias and PLL blocks
when the USB 3.0 PHY is in Suspend or Sleep mode.
- 1: In Suspend or Sleep mode, the HS Bias and PLL blocks are powered down.
- 0: In Suspend or Sleep mode, the HS Bias and PLL blocks remain powered and continue to draw current.

PORTRESET<#>
Per-Port Reset
Function: When asserted, this customer-specific signal resets the
corresponding port's USB2.0 transmit and receive logic without disabling the
clocks within the USB 3.0 PHY.
- 1: The transmit and receive finite state machines (FSMs) are reset, and the
line_state logic combinatorially reflects the state of the single-ended
receivers.
- 0: The transmit and receive FSMs are operational, and the line_state logic
becomes sequential after 11 PHYCLOCK<#> cycles.
Asserting PORTRESET<#> does not override any USB 3.0 PHY inputs that
normally control the USB 2.0 state, nor does it cause any transient, illegal USB
states.
Within 100 ns of asserting PORTRESET<#>, the controller must set the inputs
that control the USB 2.0 to values that cause a safe state.
A safe state for Host and Device modes is defined as follows:
- Host mode: Non-driving (OPMODE<#>[1:0] = 2'b01) with the 15-kΩ pull-
down resistors enabled (DPPULLDOWN<#> and DMPULLDOWN<#> = 1'b1)
- Device mode: Non-driving (OPMODE<#>[1:0] = 2'b01) with the 1.5-kΩ pull-
up resistor disabled

REFCLKSEL[1:0]
Reference Clock Select for PLL Block
Function: Selects reference clock source for the HS PLL block.
- 11: HS PLL uses EXTREFCLK as reference.
- 10: HS PLL uses either ref_pad_clk{p,m} or ref_alt_clk_{p,m} as reference.
- 0x: Reserved
This bus is a strapping option that must be set prior to a power-on reset and
remain static during normal operation. Strapping options are not critical for STA,
and any other timings or loading limits for the pin are specified in the .lib timing
model included in the product deliverables.


> Please look at your "PHY databook" how these signals should be configured.
> Be aware that some "tune" register should have been calibrated in fab somehow, so you should make sure the reset values are correct.

Hmmm... Taking a closer look at the 280-page PHY documentation...

3.2 Clocks and Resets
The USB 3.0 PHY supports a wide range of input reference clocks from both
external and on-chip clock sources.
To support both SuperSpeed and high-speed operations, one of the following must be provided:
- A compatible, shared reference clock frequency
- Separate clock sources to support SuperSpeed operation and high-speed operation

I checked that specific configuration requirement.
(Table 3-3 Reference Clock Frequency Selection for SuperSpeed Operation)
and it does look like one of the arbitrary values was not correctly set
ssc_ref_clk_sel was 0x88 instead of 0x0 (for 100 MHz input clock).
But "fixing" that didn't make the controller detect my USB2 key (or a USB3 hub).


pipeP_phystatus is as an output signal documented as
PIPE PHY Status
Function: Communicates completion of several PHY functions including power
management state transitions, rate change, and receiver detection. When this
signal transitions during entry and exit from P3 states and PCLK is not running,
the signaling is asynchronous. In error situations (where the PHY fails to assert
PhyStatus), the MAC can take MAC-specific error recovery actions.

I think it's a bad sign that it remains at 0.
(Assuming host_usb30_0_phystatus and pipeP_phystatus are the same)


Hmmm, I think it's time to punt this task to a HW engineer, and let them
figure out what is required for basic functionality. Only then can I try
to make the Linux driver play nice with the HW block.

Regards.
