Hi,


Some time ago, Robert tried to add VBUS detection to extcon-usb-gpio
driver [1]. There was a discussion about patch #2 ("extcon: usb-gpio:
add support for VBUS detection").

The final conclusion was that Chanwoo will add VBUS/ID notifiers [2].
That unfortunately never happened so this patchset is a follow up.

1. Add VBUS/ID cable state notifiers to extcon, so USB controllers
could use it.
2. Add VBUS detection to extcon-usb-gpio driver.

Some parts are based on old Robert's work, some are new, some are
reworked.


Best regards,
Krzysztof

The USB 3.0 OTG requires working extcon for reporting VBUS/ID changes.
This is provided by extcon-usb-gpio driver.

USB GPIO Extcon device

+This is a virtual device used to generate USB cable states from the USB

+The extcon cable states USB and USB_HOST are actually VBUS and !ID
+pin states and do not indicate what mode the USB needs to operate in.
+That decision is done by the USB stack.
+
+Some devices have only one of these GPIO pins, so we support cases when

+In general we have three cases:

+3. If only ID pin is available we infer the VBUS pin states based on ID.

Required properties:

How one can receive notifications with this API?

... all other participants agreed on that conclusion. So why change of
view point now?

Hi,
I think that the extcon don't support the notification only for property.
When USB or USB_HOST cable state is changed, the client driver
call the extcon_get_cable_property_state() to read the state of property.

Namely, the property depend on the specific external connector.

Unitl now, the extcon framework only handle the state of external connector(cable).
- The state of external connector is either attached or detached.

I think that ID and VBUS are not external connector(cable).
The ID and VBUS are more appropriate as property than new type of external connector.

Chanwoo Choi

The extcon bindings are a complete mess if you've seen my recent
comments. I'm inclined to NAK anything that amends broken bindings. This
one is headed in the right direction though...

It is not a virtual device, but a connector and connector states.

USB and USB-HOST look like driver details. Shouldn't this just be in
terms of host and device?

I'd prefer to see this deprecated in favor of a string that defines the
type of connector (usb-a-connector, usb-microab-connector, etc.)

vbus-gpios

debounce of which gpio? Needs a unit suffix.

Hello Krzysztof,

just wanted to ask on which kernel branch the patchset is based on. At
least for me the set doesn't apply cleanly to 4.7-rc4.

With best wishes,
Tobias

Hi,

It was based on next-20160608.

Hi,
Was there any conclusion on how we can support raw ID and VBUS events with extcon?

Hi Roger,
The extcon will support the USB_ID and USB_VBUS as extcon property.
I'm sending the patches[1] for extcon property.

[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/1/25
: [PATCH v2 0/6] extcon: Add the support for extcon type and property

Thanks,
Chanwoo Choi
