What:		/sys/class/typec/<port>/data_role
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		The supported USB data roles. This attribute can be used for
		requesting data role swapping on the port. Swapping is supported
		as synchronous operation, so write(2) to the attribute will not
		return until the operation has finished. The attribute is
		notified about role changes so that poll(2) on the attribute
		wakes up. Change on the role will also generate uevent
		KOBJ_CHANGE on the port. The current role is show in brackets,
		for example "[host] device" when DRP port is in host mode.

		Valid values: host, device

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port>/power_role
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		The supported power roles. This attribute can be used to request
		power role swap on the port when the port supports USB Power
		Delivery. Swapping is supported as synchronous operation, so
		write(2) to the attribute will not return until the operation
		has finished. The attribute is notified about role changes so
		that poll(2) on the attribute wakes up. Change on the role will
		also generate uevent KOBJ_CHANGE. The current role is show in
		brackets, for example "[source] sink" when in source mode.

		Valid values: source, sink

What:           /sys/class/typec/<port>/port_type
Date:           May 2017
Contact:	Badhri Jagan Sridharan <Badhri@google.com>
Description:
		Indicates the type of the port. This attribute can be used for
		requesting a change in the port type. Port type change is
		supported as a synchronous operation, so write(2) to the
		attribute will not return until the operation has finished.

		Valid values:
		- source (The port will behave as source only DFP port)
		- sink (The port will behave as sink only UFP port)
		- dual (The port will behave as dual-role-data and
			dual-role-power port)

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port>/vconn_source
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		Shows is the port VCONN Source. This attribute can be used to
		request VCONN swap to change the VCONN Source during connection
		when both the port and the partner support USB Power Delivery.
		Swapping is supported as synchronous operation, so write(2) to
		the attribute will not return until the operation has finished.
		The attribute is notified about VCONN source changes so that
		poll(2) on the attribute wakes up. Change on VCONN source also
		generates uevent KOBJ_CHANGE.

		Valid values:
		- "no" when the port is not the VCONN Source
		- "yes" when the port is the VCONN Source

		- default
		- 1.5A
		- 3.0A
		- usb_power_delivery

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port>/preferred_role
Date:		April 2017

Alternate Mode devices.

The alternate modes will have Standard or Vendor ID (SVID) assigned by USB-IF.
The ports, partners and cable plugs can have alternate modes. A supported SVID
will consist of a set of modes. Every SVID a port/partner/plug supports will
have a device created for it, and every supported mode for a supported SVID will
have its own directory under that device. Below <dev> refers to the device for
the alternate mode.

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port|partner|cable>/<dev>/svid
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		The SVID (Standard or Vendor ID) assigned by USB-IF for this
		alternate mode.

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port|partner|cable>/<dev>/mode<index>/
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		Every supported mode will have its own directory. The name of
		a mode will be "mode<index>" (for example mode1), where <index>
		is the actual index to the mode VDO returned by Discover Modes
		USB power delivery command.

What:		/sys/class/typec/<port|partner|cable>/<dev>/mode<index>/description
Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>

Date:		April 2017
Contact:	Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com>
Description:
		Shows if the mode is active or not. The attribute can be used
		for entering/exiting the mode with partners and cable plugs, and
		with the port alternate modes it can be used for disabling
		support for specific alternate modes. Entering/exiting modes is
		supported as synchronous operation so write(2) to the attribute
		does not return until the enter/exit mode operation has
		finished. The attribute is notified when the mode is
		entered/exited so poll(2) on the attribute wakes up.
		Entering/exiting a mode will also generate uevent KOBJ_CHANGE.

		Valid values: yes, no
