[PATCH] usb: typec: ucsi: Handle incorrect num_connectors capability
Posted by Mark Pearson 1 month, 1 week ago
The UCSI spec states that the num_connectors field is 7 bits, and the
8th bit is reserved and should be set to zero.
Some buggy FW has been known to set this bit, and it can lead to a
system not booting.
Flag that the FW is not behaving correctly, and auto-fix the value
so that the system boots correctly.

Found on Lenovo P1 G8 during Linux enablement program. The FW will
be fixed, but seemed worth addressing in case it hit platforms that
aren't officially Linux supported.

Maybe 3cf657f ('Remove all bit-fields')?

The commit there states that 'We can't use bit fields with data that is received or send
to/from the device.'
Not sure why that is, but I assumed this means we shouldn't change the structure to use 7 bits for num_connectors, which was my original plan.

After that, we go all the way back to the file creation (c1b0bc2) where it was defined as 8 bit.

Just a gentle nudge to see if there are any concerns or questions with the patch.

I can add a Fixes tag for the very original commit of this file (c1b0bc2) if that's wanted.

I don't think it's necessary in this case if the fw is really fixed.
But what says Greg?
