USB Type-C port devices (eg. /sys/class/typec/port0/)
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/data_role
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
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
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/power_role
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
The supported power roles. This attribute can be used to request
power role swap on the port when the port supports 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 role changes so
that poll(2) on the attribute wakes up. Change on the role will
also generate uevent KOBJ_CHANGE. The current role is show in
brackets, for example "[source] sink" when in source mode.
Valid values: source, sink
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/port_type
Date: May 2017
Contact: Badhri Jagan Sridharan <Badhri@google.com>
Description:
Indicates the type of the port. This attribute can be used for
requesting a change in the port type. Port type change is
supported as a synchronous operation, so write(2) to the
attribute will not return until the operation has finished.
Valid values:
- source (The port will behave as source only DFP port)
- sink (The port will behave as sink only UFP port)
- dual (The port will behave as dual-role-data and
dual-role-power port)
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/vconn_source
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
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
poll(2) on the attribute wakes up. Change on VCONN source also
generates uevent KOBJ_CHANGE.
Valid values:
- "no" when the port is not the VCONN Source
- "yes" when the port is the VCONN Source
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/power_operation_mode
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Shows the current power operational mode the port is in. The
power operation mode means current level for VBUS. In case USB
Power Delivery communication is used for negotiating the levels,
power operation mode should show "usb_power_delivery".
Valid values:
- default
- 1.5A
- 3.0A
- usb_power_delivery
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/preferred_role
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
The user space can notify the driver about the preferred role.
It should be handled as enabling of Try.SRC or Try.SNK, as
defined in USB Type-C specification, in the port drivers. By
default the preferred role should come from the platform.
Valid values: source, sink, none (to remove preference)
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/supported_accessory_modes
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Space separated list of accessory modes, defined in the USB
Type-C specification, the port supports.
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/usb_power_delivery_revision
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Revision number of the supported USB Power Delivery
specification, or 0 when USB Power Delivery is not supported.
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>/usb_typec_revision
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Revision number of the supported USB Type-C specification.
USB Type-C partner devices (eg. /sys/class/typec/port0-partner/)
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>-partner/accessory_mode
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Shows the Accessory Mode name when the partner is an Accessory.
The Accessory Modes are defined in USB Type-C Specification.
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>-partner/supports_usb_power_delivery
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
Shows if the partner supports USB Power Delivery communication:
Valid values: yes, no
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>-partner>/identity/
Date: April 2017
Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
This directory appears only if the port device driver is capable
of showing the result of Discover Identity USB power delivery
command. That will not always be possible even when USB power
delivery is supported, for example when USB power delivery
communication for the port is mostly handled in firmware. If the
directory exists, it will have an attribute file for every VDO
in Discover Identity command result.
What: /sys/class/typec/<port>-partner/identity/id_header
Date: April 2017
