+Date: 2019-11-11
+KernelVersion: 5.5
+Contact: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org
+Description: There are two USB charger states:
+ USB_CHARGER_ABSENT
+ USB_CHARGER_PRESENT
+ There are five USB charger types:
+ USB_CHARGER_UNKNOWN_TYPE
+ USB_CHARGER_SDP_TYPE
+ USB_CHARGER_CDP_TYPE
+ USB_CHARGER_DCP_TYPE
+ USB_CHARGER_ACA_TYPE
+
+ Here are two examples taken using udevadm monitor -p when
+ USB charger is online:
+ UDEV [227.425096] change /devices/soc0/usbphynop1 (platform)
+ ACTION=change
+ DEVPATH=/devices/soc0/usbphynop1
+ DRIVER=usb_phy_generic
+ MODALIAS=of:Nusbphynop1T(null)Cusb-nop-xceiv
+ OF_COMPATIBLE_0=usb-nop-xceiv
+ OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
+ OF_FULLNAME=/usbphynop1
+ OF_NAME=usbphynop1
+ SEQNUM=2493
+ SUBSYSTEM=platform
+ USB_CHARGER_STATE=USB_CHARGER_PRESENT
+ USB_CHARGER_TYPE=USB_CHARGER_SDP_TYPE
+ USEC_INITIALIZED=227422826
+
+ USB charger is offline:
+ KERNEL[229.533933] change /devices/soc0/usbphynop1 (platform)
+ ACTION=change
+ DEVPATH=/devices/soc0/usbphynop1
+ DRIVER=usb_phy_generic
+ MODALIAS=of:Nusbphynop1T(null)Cusb-nop-xceiv
+ OF_COMPATIBLE_0=usb-nop-xceiv
+ OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
+ OF_FULLNAME=/usbphynop1
+ OF_NAME=usbphynop1
+ SEQNUM=2494
+ SUBSYSTEM=platform
+ USB_CHARGER_STATE=USB_CHARGER_ABSENT
+ USB_CHARGER_TYPE=USB_CHARGER_UNKNOWN_TYPE
When the USB charger is inserted or removed, the users could get USB charger state and type through the uevent.
