Playstation 3 controller not connecting wired on new Pi4 RetroPie build
-
Hi there,
I've just completed a new Raspberry Pi 4 8GB setup, using the Pi4 image downloaded from this site, it is version 4.6.9. I cannot get my PS3 controller to work at all, even on wired USB.
I used the same controller on a Pi 3B+ over wired USB no issue (Bluetooth was another story). Now with the new Pi4 build it won't work at all. Other controllers such as XBox360 and a generic DIY Arcade controller work perfectly. If I tail syslog, I see the below errors. I've been reading and searching all day without luck. All the documentation says that wired PS3 should work out of the box, which it did on the Pi3, but not on the Pi4.
I've installed sixaxis driver, and PS3 Controller, and tried all permutations of options without luck
Any advice appreciated

Have you tried using the USB2 ports for connecting the controller ? If the controller was previously paired to another box, try resetting the controller before connecting it via USB.

Hi there, Checked again just now, no luck unfortunately.
I've tried pressing the reset button (requires a paperclip) while holding and not holding various buttons, tried every port on the Pi - USB2 and 3 - the 4 lights blink rapidly, very briefly the 2 middle ones illuminate, back to 4 blinking, and and then turn off.
The two middle ones illuminating is what would happen when it was working successfully on the Pi3.
I've given up and purchased an 8bitdo pro sn30. I had it connected to Bluetooth in 2 minutes and it hasn't missed a beat. Highly recommended

@welcome I bet you have the chengdao ps3 controllers from Amazon.
I am having the same issue.

Hi,
I suspect I have (2 of) the same controller too, bought with in the last 2 weeks. Arrived in a horrible oversized blue cardboard/plastic packaging?Looking at the kernel logs, I see that the hid-sony driver is failing to query the controller for its bluetooth MAC address:

dmesgcommand on the terminal, after you've plugged in the controller via USB).the usbhid error -71 seems harmless, the hid-sony driver proceeds to try and interrogate the device, but fails.
These messages are the same on any recent linux box, so I'm setting up a kernel dev environment so that I can poke the driver and controller to see what happens.
Some initial digging I did the other day did get the controller to return MAC address data, but I need to be more rigorous about changes in the driver to find out what this controller wants. I have not yet seen the driver enable bluetooth on this controller either (but, I also don't have any other PS controller to test to see what should be happening either - so I'm flying a little bit blind).
I'd love to get these working, I'll report back here if I make any progress at all.
Regards,
Doug. -

PS3 Controller
Also, one further thing to note - I already took the controller apart to find see if there's anything interesting or identifying about these... and nothing. Even the main chip inside has had its numbers/marks scratched off.
However, I think the controller identifier
PS3 Controlleras shown in the logs above is a new variation - I've not seen that in googling around on this issue.Doug.

I think there's good news and bad news and bad news so far;
Good: I've got the hid-sony driver to complete its initialisation, by changing some parameters in the code. The controller did return "a MAC address" eventually.
Bad: I'm 50/50 on whether these controllers have no Bluetooth capability, despite being described as such. Even after the driver initialisation completed, I can see no BT devices matching the supposed MAC address during scanning. It could still be the case that the controller is not initialised properly yet.
[I also think these controllers are supposed to have accelerometers/motion sensors in them, which I also suspect may be missing on these clones?].Bad: I have no idea if the driver code changes will break compatibility with other controllers, and the changes to support both would maybe not be acceptable to the driver maintainers; obviously it's not my place to completely rewrite the driver, but if further tests get this thing to work then I shall seek out a conversation with the maintainers to see what we can do. Alternatively, I can of course publish my own patch for anyone wanting to use the driver with these controllers.
However: I've not yet managed to test the driver change on RPi/Retropie to see if these will work over USB connection. Initial guess is "yes" though, as I have seen button presses changing data both through HID protocol inspection and through the linux input events system.
I'll try any put some more time on this as and when I can.
Doug.
Tech note: the driver changes are as follows:
Set these #define values as follows:#define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF2_SIZE 64 #define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF5_SIZE 64The controller doesn't return any data from any report address if the report size is any other value.
That's it:

I am also having an issue with a new PS3 controller. After countless hours bouncing around the web I think your solution looks promising. I have found a "hid-sony" folder on my raspberry which I suspect contains the driver. However, I am an absolute noob with respect to Linux and I see multiple files that could be candidates.
Could you please clarify which file needs to be updated (path/filename)?
Also, can you indicate where in the file those two lines of code need to be placed?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Same issue here with a new "JAMSWALL" branded PS3 controller off Amazon.
I tried various kernels 4.19, 5.4, 5.10. (I even tried Linux, same thing, 4 slow blink, 2 middle, then back to 4)
Worked fine on Windows 10 though.
I tried with the drivers Sixaxis, PS3Controller, and CustomHIDSony, none of them worked.
The controller wouldn't work cabled in, and couldn't be paired via Bluetooth.
I also tried it on a PI3, and the USB2 and USB3 ports on my Pi4.

I'm sure someone with driver/coding skills will eventually update the "hid-sony" driver in Linux and that will trickle down to the Raspberry Pi but I had to give up and return it.

@b3n said in Playstation 3 controller not connecting wired on new Pi4 RetroPie build:
Here is the modest repo.
Thank you very much for your participation and your response!
@doug wrote that the values should be
#define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF2_SIZE 64
#define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF5_SIZE 64
And you write that
#define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF2_SIZE 17
#define SIXAXIS_REPORT_0xF5_SIZE 8
What does this difference depend on?
May I have other values that differ from both yours and @doug? -
@maksim Sorry for the confusion: I've kept the original code in the
mainbranch and set the ones from @doug in thedevelbranch.
It's just the way I'm used to work, most people work directly in themainbranch...
And this particular case, I guess I should keep anuptreambranch inline with the current code from the linux kernel repo.Anyway: once you've cloned the repo, you can checkout the
develbranch withgit checkout devel.I'd like to make the change proposed by @doug a bit more 'smart' before merging it the
mainbranch because this single change is likely breaking the use of other PS3 controller (I'll test this later).
We may find a way to add some logic to handle both cases...In addition, if the USB part works in the
develbranch, the Bluetooth is still not working... -
I've never worked on Linux module before, but I suspect one needs to make the hid-sony more smart about those 3rd party controller by altering the logic of sixaxis_set_operational_usb().
Likely to try first the original defined values (17 and 8), then the alternative (64,64) in case the first have failed!?
It seems to me that is already what the authors are doing by using the second report (0xF5) or even later for the SHANWAN_PAD.What I miss the most in this code is some debug log (only hid_err and hid_info are used here).
Maybe because it is a bad idea to debug too much in such piece of code...Nevertheless, I've found some other functions I'll try to use in this repo:
#define hid_err(hid, fmt, ...) \ dev_err(&(hid)->dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #define hid_notice(hid, fmt, ...) \ dev_notice(&(hid)->dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #define hid_warn(hid, fmt, ...) \ dev_warn(&(hid)->dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #define hid_info(hid, fmt, ...) \ dev_info(&(hid)->dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) #define hid_dbg(hid, fmt, ...) \ dev_dbg(&(hid)->dev, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) -
Hello guys
Anyone has a solution for this issue?
I've been digging a lot into internet, but couldn't make any progress :(

Reading the replies from @doug and @b3n, I've managed to implement the fix by giving a change to the report when the controller is connected.

It just change the report of the given controller, so, other controllers will remain functional.
Bad: The controller only works with the cable and the player's count LEDs turn on in a weird way.
TODO: I still want to make this driver actually doable. Any help will be very welcome.
GitHub: https://github.com/KanuX-14/GeneriKit
Edit: The original driver will be kept. It can be enabled again by deleting the line 'blacklist hid-sony' in
/etc/modprobe.d/generikit.conf.
