USB issues with a Raspberry Pi

Some people report problems with my CCID driver and a Raspberry Pi. The problem is not with the CCID driver but with the Raspberry Pi itself.

I don't know if the problem is hardware, software or a combination of the two. I found a description of the problem on the excellent website yoctopuce.com. For example from the article "Cook and Hold with Raspberry Pi (video)" you can read:

There is one caveat on the Raspberry Pi : the USB support is still somewhat buggy perfectible, and we will need to configure it to make it work reliably. The problem is, the RasPi will occasionally drop USB packets for "full-speed" peripherals (such as keyboard, mouse, modems, as well as some audio devices) when working in standard "high-speed" mode. The problem is less acute with the most recent firmware, but it is not completely solved. The only reliable workaround for now is to force all peripherals to run in "full-speed" mode. This will have the negative side effect of limiting all peripherals (including the on-board network adapter) to 1.5 MBytes/s, but anyway, the Raspberry Pi is not designed to be a race horse...

To force USB to run in "full-speed" mode, simply add dwc_otg.speed=1 to the /boot/cmdline.txt file, as follows:

dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200
dwc_otg.speed=1 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4
elevator=deadline rootwait
