Perhaps it is simple enough logic to leave the GPIO here. Perhaps there's more to the h/w you are not (yet) describing. Rob

Perhaps there's more to the h/w you > are not (yet) describing. The h/w has an I/O line representing the usb-c orientation at any time which is driven by the PMIC in charge of the USB-C connector(s). On this platform, the usb-c connector orientation is only unconditionally given by this I/O connected to a GPIO line, howerver we get an altmode event with the orientation, but only when an altmode state has been negociated. AFAIK there's no other way or events returning this orientation change unconditionally unlike previous HW generations. This is why representing it as a gpio is simple but useful since there's a lot of passive usb-c controllers also reflecting this orientation info in a same way to be consumed by superspeed switches for example. As an alternative I didn't find a way that fits the current bindings to get this simple binary information. Neil > > Rob
