Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] platform/chrome: cros_ec_typec: Make sure the USB role switch has PLD

The USB role switch does not always have the _PLD (Physical
Location of Device) in ACPI tables. If it's missing,
assigning the PLD hash of the port to the switch. That
should guarantee that the USB Type-C port mapping code is
always able to find the connection between the two (the port
and the switch).

I'll reiterate my comment[ 1] from v1: can this be in the
common Type-C code, i.e typec_register_port() ?

I don't see anything in this implementation which is Chrome OS specific.

Thanks,

Non-ChromeOS platforms do not have this issue.

The issue is with the ACPI tables - the USB role switch ACPI device
nodes don't have the _PLD object on these systems. Ideally this could
be fixed there by simply adding the _PLD to those ACPI device objects,
but I understood that that is not an option.

But maybe I misunderstood... Can the ACPI tables on these platforms
still be updated?

thanks,

I'm sorry Prashant, I failed to notice your comment.

This is only needed for Chrome OS. The problem affects only certain
Chromebooks.

I do not want to put quirks to the generic subsystem code unless we
have to. If there are more device drivers that need the same quirk,
then we can move it there, but not before that.

This solution is in any case a hack regardless of where we put it, and
I don't like it because of that. But I don't have any better ideas
unfortunately.

thanks,

Since it's just a _PLD update to, it should be possible to do a "light" firmware
update on the relevant boards. Shyam/Emilie/Won, how practical is this?

I'd much prefer this to be fixed properly in the ACPI table than relying
on this quirk.

IAC, if we absolutely *have* to use this quirk:
