Hi, This is version 8 of series we prepare with Hans where we are introducing support for USB muxes and generic device connections. The only change in this version is to patch 1/12 (the device connections), where we are no longer using rcu. Greg pointed out that we are not doing anything heavy enough to justify use of rcu. Cover-letter of v7: This is version 7 of Hans' and my series introducing support for USB muxes and generic device-connections. The api naming for device-connections is now made according to proposal from Greg, connection.h is dropped and the prototypes are now in device.h. kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx> also found stylistic problems from patches 9/12 and 10/12 which were fixed. The patch 4/12 ("usb: typec: Separate the definitions for data and power roles") was added to the series. Check the v6 from here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/2/340 Here is the cover-letter of v6: Hi All, Here is version 6 of Heikki's and my USB Type-C device-connection, mux and switch support series. Versions 2 - 5 bring various small code and style fixes based on review (no major changes). Version 6 is rebased on top of the latest usb-next and brings one small but important code fix in the devcon code. Here is the original cover-letter of v1: Some devices with an USB Type-C connector have a bunch of muxes behind that connector which need to be controlled by the kernel (rather then having them controlled by firmware as on most devices). Quite a while back I submitted a patch-series to tie together these muxes and the Type-C Port Manager (tcpm) code, using the then new drivers/mux framework. But the way I used the mux framework went against what it was designed for, so in the end that series got nowhere. Heikki Krogerus from Intel, who maintains the USB TYPEC subsystem, has recently been working on solving the same problem for some boards he is doing hardware-enablement for. Heikki has come up with a number of infrastructure patches for this. The first one is a new device-connection framework. This solves the problem of describing non bus device-links on x86 in what in my experience with this problematic area is a really nice simple, clean and *generic* way. This could for example in the near future also replace the custom lookup code in the pwm subsys and the custom pwm_add_table() / pwm_remove_table() functions. The other 3 patches add a framework for the different type of Type-C / USB "muxes". Heikki and I have gone through a number of iterations of these patches together and we believe these are now ready for merging. Since merging infrastructure patches without users is not done and Heikki's own use-case for these is not yet ready for merging, the rest of this series consists of patches by me to make the Type-C connector found on some Cherry Trail devices (finally) be able to actually work as an USB port and not just a charge port. The last patch uses the new usb-role-switch framework to also do proper devcie / host switching on CHT devices with a USB micro AB connector. This is also a big feature for CHT users, because before this they had to do a reboot to get an OTG-host cable recognized (on some devices). Part of this series is an usb-role-switch driver for the role-switch found inside the xhci controller on e.g. CHT devices, this is currently implemented as the generic xhci controller instantiating a platform child-device for this, since this really is a separate chunk of HW which happens to sit in the XHCI mmio space. This approach may not be universally liked, given that in this new series the role-switch driver is much smaller and does not have any external deps anymore we could just integrate it into the xhci code if that is preferred. About merging this series (once everything is reviewed, etc.), there are quite some interdependencies in it esp. a lot of the patches depend on the first patch. Luckily patches 1-10 all apply to subsystems which are maintained by Greg (most to the USB subsys). Which just leaves patches 11 and 12 once 1-10 are merged. Greg, can you create an immutable branch for the platform/x86 and extcon maintainers to merge once this is done?
