Extcon Device Subsystem
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
Overview
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
The Extcon (External Connector) subsystem provides a unified framework for
|
||||
managing external connectors in Linux systems. It allows drivers to report
|
||||
the state of external connectors and provides a standardized interface for
|
||||
userspace to query and monitor these states.
|
||||
|
||||
Extcon is particularly useful in modern devices with multiple connectivity
|
||||
options, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. It helps manage various
|
||||
types of connectors, including:
|
||||
|
||||
1. USB connectors (e.g., USB-C, micro-USB)
|
||||
2. Charging ports (e.g., fast charging, wireless charging)
|
||||
3. Audio jacks (e.g., 3.5mm headphone jack)
|
||||
4. Video outputs (e.g., HDMI, DisplayPort)
|
||||
5. Docking stations
|
||||
|
||||
Real-world examples:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Smartphone USB-C port:
|
||||
A single USB-C port on a smartphone can serve multiple functions. Extcon
|
||||
can manage the different states of this port, such as:
|
||||
- USB data connection
|
||||
- Charging (various types like fast charging, USB Power Delivery)
|
||||
- Audio output (USB-C headphones)
|
||||
- Video output (USB-C to HDMI adapter)
|
||||
|
||||
2. Laptop docking station:
|
||||
When a laptop is connected to a docking station, multiple connections are
|
||||
made simultaneously. Extcon can handle the state changes for:
|
||||
- Power delivery
|
||||
- External displays
|
||||
- USB hub connections
|
||||
- Ethernet connectivity
|
||||
|
||||
3. Wireless charging pad:
|
||||
Extcon can manage the state of a wireless charging connection, allowing
|
||||
the system to respond appropriately when a device is placed on or removed
|
||||
from the charging pad.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Smart TV HDMI ports:
|
||||
In a smart TV, Extcon can manage multiple HDMI ports, detecting when
|
||||
devices are connected or disconnected, and potentially identifying the
|
||||
type of device (e.g., gaming console, set-top box, Blu-ray player).
|
||||
|
||||
The Extcon framework simplifies the development of drivers for these complex
|
||||
scenarios by providing a standardized way to report and query connector
|
||||
states, handle mutually exclusive connections, and manage connector
|
||||
properties. This allows for more robust and flexible handling of external
|
||||
connections in modern devices.
|
||||
|
||||
Key Components
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
extcon_dev
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
The core structure representing an Extcon device::
|
||||
|
||||
struct extcon_dev {
|
||||
const char *name;
|
||||
const unsigned int *supported_cable;
|
||||
const u32 *mutually_exclusive;
|
||||
|
||||
/* Internal data */
|
||||
struct device dev;
|
||||
unsigned int id;
|
||||
struct raw_notifier_head nh_all;
|
||||
struct raw_notifier_head *nh;
|
||||
struct list_head entry;
|
||||
int max_supported;
|
||||
spinlock_t lock;
|
||||
u32 state;
|
||||
|
||||
/* Sysfs related */
|
||||
struct device_type extcon_dev_type;
|
||||
struct extcon_cable *cables;
|
||||
struct attribute_group attr_g_muex;
|
||||
struct attribute **attrs_muex;
|
||||
struct device_attribute *d_attrs_muex;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
Key fields:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``name``: Name of the Extcon device
|
||||
- ``supported_cable``: Array of supported cable types
|
||||
- ``mutually_exclusive``: Array defining mutually exclusive cable types
|
||||
This field is crucial for enforcing hardware constraints. It's an array of
|
||||
32-bit unsigned integers, where each element represents a set of mutually
|
||||
exclusive cable types. The array should be terminated with a 0.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
static const u32 mutually_exclusive[] = {
|
||||
BIT(0) | BIT(1), /* Cable 0 and 1 are mutually exclusive */
|
||||
BIT(2) | BIT(3) | BIT(4), /* Cables 2, 3, and 4 are mutually exclusive */
|
||||
0 /* Terminator */
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, cables 0 and 1 cannot be connected simultaneously, and
|
||||
cables 2, 3, and 4 are also mutually exclusive. This is useful for
|
||||
scenarios like a single port that can either be USB or HDMI, but not both
|
||||
at the same time.
|
||||
|
||||
The Extcon core uses this information to prevent invalid combinations of
|
||||
cable states, ensuring that the reported states are always consistent
|
||||
with the hardware capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
- ``state``: Current state of the device (bitmap of connected cables)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
extcon_cable
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Represents an individual cable managed by an Extcon device::
|
||||
|
||||
struct extcon_cable {
|
||||
struct extcon_dev *edev;
|
||||
int cable_index;
|
||||
struct attribute_group attr_g;
|
||||
struct device_attribute attr_name;
|
||||
struct device_attribute attr_state;
|
||||
struct attribute *attrs[3];
|
||||
union extcon_property_value usb_propval[EXTCON_PROP_USB_CNT];
|
||||
union extcon_property_value chg_propval[EXTCON_PROP_CHG_CNT];
|
||||
union extcon_property_value jack_propval[EXTCON_PROP_JACK_CNT];
|
||||
union extcon_property_value disp_propval[EXTCON_PROP_DISP_CNT];
|
||||
DECLARE_BITMAP(usb_bits, EXTCON_PROP_USB_CNT);
|
||||
DECLARE_BITMAP(chg_bits, EXTCON_PROP_CHG_CNT);
|
||||
DECLARE_BITMAP(jack_bits, EXTCON_PROP_JACK_CNT);
|
||||
DECLARE_BITMAP(disp_bits, EXTCON_PROP_DISP_CNT);
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||

Sysfs Interface
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Extcon devices expose the following sysfs attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``name``: Name of the Extcon device
|
||||
- ``state``: Current state of all supported cables
|
||||
- ``cable.N/name``: Name of the Nth supported cable
|
||||
- ``cable.N/state``: State of the Nth supported cable
|
||||
|
||||

This example demonstrates:
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- Defining supported cable types (USB and USB Host in this case).
|
||||
- Allocating and registering an extcon device.
|
||||
- Setting an initial state for a cable (USB connected in this example).
|
||||
- Clearing the state when the driver is removed.
