I am runing a linux virtual machine macos using parallels desktop. One day when I booted normally, I got a usb error and couldn’t use the keyboard and mouse in virtual machine.

An error messages like this is output on the screen.

usb 3-1: can't set config #1, error -62
xhci_hcd Error while assigning device slot ID: Command Aborted.
xhci_hcd Max number of devices this xHCI host supports is 32.
usb usb3-port2: couldn't allocate usb_device

Finally I found a solution on the parallels desktop forum.

  1. Start your virtual machine.
  2. Press e to edit the grub menu during the boot phase, passing a new parameter to the kernel.
  3. Append xhci_hcd.quirks=0x40 after quiet
  4. F10 booting the kernel
  5. After entering the system, open the terminal and edit the /etc/default/grub file
  6. Replace that line with the following line:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”quiet xhci_hcd.quirks=0x40”

  1. Next, execute the following command:

sudo update-grub
