Interesting you mention extcon-usb-gpio. I thought extcon at least from bindings perspective is passé now. Maybe this is what you need (just landed in usb-next): usb: common: add USB GPIO based connection detection driver https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git/commit/?h=usb-next&id=4602f3bff2669012c1147eecfe74c121765f5c56 dt-bindings: usb: add binding for USB GPIO based connection detection driver https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git/commit/?h=usb-next&id=f651c73e71f53f65e9846677d79d8e120452b59f Fortunately this new driver might check the right boxes for you: - usb connector binding - ID detect GPIO - vbus-supply regulator With that, I think you can also keep the connector subnode out of the SSPHY node well, and similarly get rid of the vbus toggle handling from the PHY driver. The big thing missing now is that this driver replaces extcon completely, so we'll need handling in dwc3/dwc3-qcom to retrieve the role switch state to know when host mode is entered. I saw this a while back but don't think it got picked up: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10909981/ > > So if we come up with a struct device for the connector and some API for > > toggling the vbus we're going to have to fairly abstract entities > > representing pretty much the same thing - and in a design with a mux we > > would have a different setup. > > I am a bit unclear - not sure if we have gone full circle on this > subject. what is then the direction to get this merged? > > I did have look last week and the level of effort to support regulators > on external nodes is not neglectable meaning that I might not have the > time to deliver that feature (perhaps someone else wishes to take over?) > > > > > Regards, > > Bjorn > > > Jack -- The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project
