For example, GEN_1x2 and GEN_2X1 are both 10Gbps, so we can use USB_SPEED_SUPER_PLUS to represent 10Gbps. GEN_2x2 represent 20Gbps, we can use USB_SPEED_SUPER_PLUS_BY2. There is no need to append generation and lane info when we only want to talk about overall speed. By the way, Apple also uses a similar way to declare speed enums and the new speed name is kind of borrowed from it. >There are SuperSpeed Plus generation _and_ lane count.

As for the lanes, I think it's OK to not mention it in the name since there are already comments to explain what this enum is for. Besides, the word "rate" is kind of like "speed", which should be covered by usb_device_speed instead of in the enum for generation and lanes. >lane count.

Clearly GEN_2x2 and GEN_2x1 have different overall speed. Let's not hide the fact under SuperSpeed Plus. >If you're planning to do it this way, why not add the other speeds (such >as gen 1x2) to usb_device_speed enum too?

But like in dwc3 code, there are some different behaviors based on generation and lanes, so the enum still needs to be kept. >usb_ssp_rate enum.

But I'm not completely sure they are all correct, which need to be further checked by maintainers. >Since these changes are not simple and will touch on multiple places, >please split this patch out. > Okay, I can try to split the patch once we reach an agreement on how to handle SSP speed and generation. Besides, there is almost one file for each different module and it's not good to send one patch for each of them, right? There would be many in this way. Regards, Dingyan
