Few lines above you have said -role is "for the current role rather than the port's ability" :) Generally my intention was to avoid such inconsistencies, for example by using consistently prefixes (for example: power and data) and suffixes (for example: mode and role), which are used in specs. We would have then: - power_mode - for PD capabilities, - power_role - for default/initial role, - data_mode - for data capabilities, - data_role - for default/initial role (as I understand specs this property is redundant, as initial data_role is determined by power_role). Of course if there is already well established convention, we shouldn't change it, is there any, sysfs is well established? > >>>> Other thing is that default-role is required only in case of DRP, so >>>> maybe better would be to squash it in power-role, for example: >>>> power-role: should be on of "source", "sink", "dual-source", >>>> "dual-sink", in case of dual roles suffix determines preferred role. >>> I don't know how much this squash can benefit, "dual-source/sink" is >>> not directly showing its meaning by name. >> Some benefit is simpler binding, no conditionally-required property. >> > There is already string definition for port type and preferred role parse > static const char * const typec_port_types[] = { > [TYPEC_PORT_DFP] = "source", > [TYPEC_PORT_UFP] = "sink", > [TYPEC_PORT_DRP] = "dual", > }; I am little bit confused about enums, according typec specs DFP and UFP are associated with flow of USB data, but DRP is about power - Dual-Role-Power - quite misleading. As I understand from the context it is about power capabilities. Shouldn't be TYPEC_PORT_DFP replaced with TYPEC_PORT_SRC or TYPEC_PORT_SOURCE, similarly UFP ? > And I think there will be other conditionally-required properties > to be extended later, are we going to name all of them by this way? > Either way is OK for me, I am not sure if there is principle like we > should avoid conditionally-required property, if we should, maybe > "dual-preferred-source/sink" is better.

So maybe it would be good to extend list of values, or clarify, for example that 'source' means without PR_Swap (ie. Source-only), or maybe add property indicating device is pr_swap capable, whatever suits better.
