[PATCH v2 0/5] USB Type-C alternate mode priorities

From: Andrei Kuchynski
Date: Mon Aug 25 2025 - 10:59:28 EST


This patch series introduces a mechanism for setting USB Type-C alternate
mode priorities. It allows the user to specify their preferred order for
mode selection, such as USB4, Thunderbolt, or DisplayPort.

A new sysfs attribute named 'priority' is exposed to provide user-space
control over the mode selection process.

This series was tested on a Android OS device running kernel 6.16.

Changes in v2:
- The priority variable is now a member of the typec_altmode struct
- typec_altmode2port is used to obtain the typec_port struct pointer
- Default priorities are now set based on the order of registration
- The mode_control capability is enabled by default
- The mode_selection_state struct will be introduced in a separate series
- svid will be used instead of the typec_mode_type enum

Andrei Kuchynski (5):
usb: typec: Add alt_mode_override field to port property
platform/chrome: cros_ec_typec: Set alt_mode_override flag
usb: typec: ucsi: Set alt_mode_override flag
usb: typec: Implement alternate mode priority handling
usb: typec: Expose alternate mode priority via sysfs
