This patch series introduces a mechanism for setting USB Type-C alternate mode priorities. It allows the user to specify their preferred order for mode selection, such as USB4, Thunderbolt, or DisplayPort. A new sysfs attribute named 'priority' is exposed to provide user-space control over the mode selection process. This series was tested on a Android OS device running kernel 6.16. Changes in v2: - The priority variable is now a member of the typec_altmode struct - typec_altmode2port is used to obtain the typec_port struct pointer - Default priorities are now set based on the order of registration - The mode_control capability is enabled by default - The mode_selection_state struct will be introduced in a separate series - svid will be used instead of the typec_mode_type enum Andrei Kuchynski (5): usb: typec: Add alt_mode_override field to port property platform/chrome: cros_ec_typec: Set alt_mode_override flag usb: typec: ucsi: Set alt_mode_override flag usb: typec: Implement alternate mode priority handling usb: typec: Expose alternate mode priority via sysfsI'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I think these are okay - although, I had to put a few nitpicks :) but they are minor - but can you include a patch where you use the priority member in a driver (maybe cros_ec_typec.c)? thanks, -- heikki
Thank you for your review and feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to provide these notes. The patch using the priority member is part of a subsequent series that I have ready. I will send it shortly. This functionality is implemented in mode_selection.c to determine the mode order, and we plan to use it for both the cros_ec_typec and UCSI implementations. I will send a new v3 patch set shortly with the minor changes you suggested. Thanks! Andrei
