What this skill does

Customize USB (per-port enable / disable / role) Purpose Enable, disable, or change the role of USB2 / USB3 SS ports on a Jetson Thor (Tegra264) or Orin (Tegra234) custom carrier. Captures per-port wiring (role, max speed, VBUS-EN / OC GPIOs, CC1/CC2 GPIOs for Type-C, USB3 SS UPHY lane), resolves the SS to USB2 companion graph from the in-tree DTB, then renders a self-contained kernel-DT overlay that flips every port action in three places in lockstep (lane status, port status, host xHCI phys + phy-names). UPHY lane allocation belongs to jetson-customize-uphy. No ODMDATA edit. Output is one commit to the composite custom overlay .dts in the bspsources/ hardware repo. Prerequisites Active profile with referencedevkit: + customcarrier: blocks. <source.rootpath>/LinuxforTegra/.git exists (/jetson-init-source). /jetson-derive-carrier has run — carrier flash-conf fork in the overlay tracker. /jetson-customize-uphy has run when any enabled USB3 SS port needs a non-stock UPHY lane allocation. Its JSON sidecar at <workspace>/target-platform/<profile-stem>.jetson-customize-uphy.json is consulted for SS lane allocation. Source-of-truth docs: Adaptation Guide §"Port the Universal Serial Bus", Module Design Guide §USB, SoC TRM (xusb block). When customcarrier: is present, both documents.customcarrierschematic AND documents.customcarrierpinmuxxls are REQUIRED. Refuse the run if either is missing — per-port routing (VBUS-EN / OC / CC GPIOs, SS lane wiring, hub fan-out) on a custom carrier cannot be guessed. Reference-devkit-only profiles skip this check. dtc, fdtoverlay on PATH. Overview USB on Tegra spans three IP surfaces: the xusbpadctl block (USB2 OTG + USB3 SS PHYs), the tegra-xusb xHCI host controller, and an optional tegra-xudc device controller attached to the single OTG-capable USB2 port (usb2-0). A per-port flip MUST touch three kernel-DT places in lockstep. …
