Yes, the USB wrapper handles the ID pin operation only. It also reads
the status of VBUS by reading a register from its MMR and not using a
gpio. After evaluating the role the based on the states if id pin and
VBUS, this role is communicated to the dwc3 core driver using extcon.
There is no way for the dwc3 driver to detect the role on its own.


The usb-connector(drivers/usb/common/usb-conn-gpio.c) driver, seems to
be implemented for driving the VBUS, based on ID and VBUS pin status.
However, in case of the above implementation we need to communicate the
detected role to the dwc3 core driver. Also, the wrapper does not
control VBUS but it is the dwc3 core driver that drives the VBUS.
Therefore, I think the usb-connector implementation cannot be used here.

I don't think about usb-conn-gpio.c but using the binding generic
binding for usb-X-connector and define a connector with ID.

Actually Rob could help here.

Rob,
Should the id-gpio be modeled as a property in this glue/wrapper driver
or rather as part of usb-connector child node?

That's a simple question. Where does the ID GPIO signal go to? The
connector, so it goes in the connector node.

If we have a driver for the usb-connector node, that's news to me. Not
that we couldn't, but that has nothing to do with designing the binding.

Thank you for the clarification. Here ID-gpio is directly read by the
wrapper and hence, I have modeled it as a property in the wrapper dt
node. May I know if this wrong and should the modelling be looked at
differently?
