I had spent far too much time trying to solve the Pi4 USB conundrum ( see https:\/\/rglinuxtech.com\/?p=2922<\/a> ) but did recently find that the 5.14-rc kernels enabled the USB3 hub, although USB2 still failed to function.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I then updated u-boot<\/strong> to the ‘latest’ version, and now everything (finally..) works as it should, again..:<\/p>\n

Updated u-boot to latest (git) version –
\nVERSION = 2021<\/span><\/strong>
\nPATCHLEVEL = 10<\/span><\/strong>
\nSUBLEVEL =<\/span><\/strong>
\nEXTRAVERSION = -rc1<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Compiled, and copied u-boot.bin<\/strong><\/span> to \/boot\/efi\/<\/span><\/strong> (named rpi4-u-boot.bin<\/strong><\/span>, on my system)<\/p>\n

Booted OK (kernel 5.14<\/strong>)
\n$ lsusb -t<\/span><\/strong>
\n\/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd\/4p, 5000M<\/span><\/strong>
\n\/: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd\/1p, 480M<\/span><\/strong>
\n|__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub\/4p, 480M<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Plugged USB drive into USB3 port:

-unplugged, then plugged into USB2 port:

\nusb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd<\/strong><\/span>

\nsd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

So.. all seems to be OK (as it was with kernel 5.9, all that time ago..)<\/p>\n
