usb: USB Type-C connector class
The purpose of USB Type-C connector class is to provide unified interface for the user space to get the status and basic information about USB Type-C connectors on a system, control over data role swapping, and when the port supports USB Power Delivery, also control over power role swapping and Alternate Modes.

|

Description:
|

The supported USB data roles. This attribute can be used for
|
||||
requesting data role swapping on the port. Swapping is supported
|
||||
as synchronous operation, so write(2) to the attribute will not
|
||||
return until the operation has finished. The attribute is
|
||||
notified about role changes so that poll(2) on the attribute
|
||||
wakes up. Change on the role will also generate uevent
|
||||
KOBJ_CHANGE on the port. The current role is show in brackets,
|
||||
for example "[host] device" when DRP port is in host mode.
|
||||
|

Valid values: host, device

Shows is the port VCONN Source. This attribute can be used to

request VCONN swap to change the VCONN Source during connection
|

when both the port and the partner support USB Power Delivery.
|

Swapping is supported as synchronous operation, so write(2) to

the attribute will not return until the operation has finished.

The attribute is notified about VCONN source changes so that

default the preferred role should come from the platform.

Alternate Mode devices.

The alternate modes will have Standard or Vendor ID (SVID) assigned by USB-IF.

The ports, partners and cable plugs can have alternate modes. A supported SVID

will consist of a set of modes. Every SVID a port/partner/plug supports will

have a device created for it, and every supported mode for a supported SVID will
|

have its own directory under that device. Below <dev> refers to the device for
