Won't this need dts change for existing boards? Instead how about having disable flags instead. - adp-disable /* board doesn't support adp */ - srp-disable /* board doesn't support srp */ - hnp-disable /* board doesn't support hnp */ Now, if the flags are not provided in dts we use the OTG core's flags. > > Currently, if CONFIG_USB_OTG and CONFIG_USB_OTG_FSM are enabled, we will > have otg fsm code (usb-otg-fsm.c). > > if (otg-support & otg-fsm-support) > this device has fully otg support, and will follow full otg fsm transitions. > else > this device is drd, and will follow simple otg fsm transtions. > cheers, -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
