Andrezej, Why don't you have any of the USB maintainers in to/cc?

In the HDMI case, they all are pretty much the same, just different physical size." So the question is. Does it matter to this particular software implementation if it is type A,B,C connector? If yes, how? Type A will never have any alternate function. It is always dedicated to USB.

USB controller binding (bindings/usb/generic.txt) has the speed. I don't think there is any value for replicating it for the connector.

Because 1st example is "<size>-USB" and second one is "USB-<type>". How is label going to be used? Is it being presented to end user? If yes it should indicate what's important to the user. i.e. its function. e.g. "USB-MHL" or "USB-DisplayPort" > > Regards > Andrzej > >> >>> + >>> + ports { >>> + #address-cells = <1>; >>> + #size-cells = <0>; >>> + >>> + port@0 { >>> + reg = <0>; >>> + usb_con_hs: endpoint { >>> + remote-endpoint = <&max77865_usbc_hs>; >>> + }; >>> + }; >>> + port@1 { >>> + reg = <1>; >>> + usb_con_ss: endpoint { >>> + remote-endpoint = <&usbdrd_phy_ss>; >>> + }; >>> + }; >>> + port@2 { >>> + reg = <2>; >>> + usb_con_sbu: endpoint { >>> + remote-endpoint = <&dp_aux>; >>> + }; >>> + }; >>> + }; >>> + }; >>> +}; >>> > -- cheers, -roger Texas Instruments Finland Oy, Porkkalankatu 22, 00180 Helsinki.
