Yes, this interface can't provide directly information received from
PD commands like Discover Identity. We will have to present the
partners even when USB PD is not supported and in a consistent
fashion. Some details will be available in any case indirectly. Like
if there are modes, there will be devices presenting them, and the
product type in case of partners will be the partner type.
But there are a couple of attributes I have been thinking about adding
for the partners:
supported_data_roles
supports_usb_power_delivery
The supported data roles would respond bits 30 and 31 of the ID Header
VDO. But when the partner does not support USB PD, we will have to
report "unknown" in it.
Oliver, Guenter! How do you guys feel about those? Is there any useDefinitely good for debugging and informational. On the top of my head,
for them?

The purpose of USB Type-C connector class is to provide
unified interface for the user space to get the status and
basic information about USB Type-C connectors on a system,
Since we are defining this is as a unified interface for user space,
will the interface include identity details of local port and peer.
Or am I over looking something ?
By peer, do you mean the partners? Sorry but could you elaborate the
question?
Thanks,
