Some typec super speed active channel switch can be controlled via
a GPIO, this binding can be used to specify the switch node by
a GPIO and the remote endpoint of its consumer.

Shouldn't this have usb-c in the propery name, e.g.:
usb-c-orientation-switch  ?

Isn't this the wrong way around, shouldn't the "usb-c-connector"
compatible port be pointing to the orientation switch, rather then
the other way around?  Both will work in the end. but to me it
feels more natural to group all the info about the type-c connector
together in the "usb-c-connector" compatible port

Hmm, it seems that this binding should work fine with
other orientation-switches as well, so I think this needs
a generic compatible string.

Also perhaps it would be better to use an additional compatible
string for this, rather then a boolean property, because what you
are trying to say is that this device is compatible with some
(to be written) generic usb-c-orientation-switch binding.

So I think you may want to use an extra compatible for this
and describe the port/graph usage linking the usb-c-connector port
and the port on the orientation-switch together in a new
usb-c-orientation-switch binding document.

This new binding will then document the port usage which is
mostly undocumented in your typec-switch-gpio.txt binding and
this port usage documentation can then be re-used for other
orientation-switch bindings.

Regards,

Hans

This is decided by drivers/usb/typec/mux.c:36

I am not sure I am getting your point, "usb-c-connector" is the user of typec switch,
yes, it is pointing to the orientation switch provider(i.e, this example node).

Yes, but it's still OK to change it. It's not documented anywhere yet.

Hans, in OF graph both endpoints will have a remote-endpoint pointing
to each other..

Perhaps switch-gpios in case there are other gpios needed.

Why is this needed? The compatible can't imply this?

I think Jun Li is added that based on the comment I put to
drivers/usb/typec/mux.c, so I'm to blame here. If we can handle this
with the compatible like I guess we can, I'm happy.

This patch was to only cover one kind of *typical* typec switch: done by
GPIO toggle, as I don't know how other typec switch may be implemented,
I will try to change this to be a *common* typec switch by using a generic
compatible(type-c-orientation-switch), which will for now only support
switch-gpios.

Port usage should be the same as I gave the example:

OK, I will change it to be switch-gpios.

I will try to remove this bool property and use a general compatible string.

Hi Heikki

Can I just remove the original bool property check? i.e, match OK if the remote
parent node is in switch_list.

No. If typec_switch_get() is called before the mux device is
registered, we need to return -EPROBE_DEFER. That means we need to be
able to identify the mux device node.

I think we should just use the compatible like Rob suggested. The
Type-C muxes should probable have their own bindings file where it's
defined for these muxes.
