1What: /sys/bus/typec/devices/.../displayport/configuration 2Date: July 2018 3Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> 4Description: 5 Shows the current DisplayPort configuration for the connector. 6 Valid values are USB, source and sink. Source means DisplayPort 7 source, and sink means DisplayPort sink. 8 9 All supported configurations are listed as space separated list 10 with the active one wrapped in square brackets. 11 12 Source example: 13 14 USB [source] sink 15 16 The configuration can be changed by writing to the file 17 18 Note. USB configuration does not equal to Exit Mode. It is 19 separate configuration defined in VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on 20 USB Type-C Standard. Functionally it equals to the situation 21 where the mode has been exited (to exit the mode, see 22 Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-typec, and use file 23 /sys/bus/typec/devices/.../active). 24 25What: /sys/bus/typec/devices/.../displayport/pin_assignment 26Date: July 2018 27Contact: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> 28Description: 29 VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard defines six 30 different pin assignments for USB Type-C connector that are 31 labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. The supported pin assignments are 32 listed as space separated list with the active one wrapped in 33 square brackets. 34 35 Example: 36 37 C [D] 38 39 Pin assignment can be changed by writing to the file. It is 40 possible to set pin assignment before configuration has been 41 set, but the assignment will not be active before the 42 connector is actually configured. 43 44 Note. As of VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard 45 version 1.0b, pin assignments A, B, and F are deprecated. Only 46 pin assignment D can now carry simultaneously one channel of 47 USB SuperSpeed protocol. From user perspective pin assignments C 48 and E are equal, where all channels on the connector are used 49 for carrying DisplayPort protocol (allowing higher resolutions).
