This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: typec: tcpm: Try PD-2.0 if sink does not respond to 3.0 to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 976daf9d1199932df80e7b04546d1a1bd4ed5ece Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 16 Mar 2019 16:57:12 +0100 Subject: usb: typec: tcpm: Try PD-2.0 if sink does not respond to 3.0 source-caps PD 2.0 sinks are supposed to accept src-capabilities with a 3.0 header and simply ignore any src PDOs which the sink does not understand such as PPS but some 2.0 sinks instead ignore the entire PD_DATA_SOURCE_CAP message, causing contract negotiation to fail. This commit fixes such sinks not working by re-trying the contract negotiation with PD-2.0 source-caps messages if we don't have a contract after PD_N_HARD_RESET_COUNT hard-reset attempts. The problem fixed by this commit was noticed with a Type-C to VGA dongle.
