The Pin Assignments is come from:
VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard
There are 2 mode for DP: DP only mode, and DP+USB3 mode(EXTCON_DISP_DP_ALT )
At DP only mode, DP has 4 lanes of Type-C;
At DP+USB3 mode, DP has 2 lanes, and USB3 has the other 2 lanes.
For DP only mode, there are 3 kind of pin assignments: A, C, E.
For DP + USB3 mode, there are 3 kind of pin assignments: B, D, F.
Pin Assignments C and D use the same assignments as Pin Assignments E and F.
Thence, we just need to distinguish A and C for DP only mode.
and distinguish B and D for DP + USB3 mode.
That why the phy need a PIN_ASSIGN cable.
The name of "DP Alt mode", it is DP+USB3 mode, actually.
I think if the name makes anyone confused, it can be changed to DP_USB3 mode:
The cable list could be:
EXTCON_DISP_DP
EXTCON_DISP_DP_USB3
