Yes, I agree with the charger IC should not charge as much as it wants, but we don't want to combine two separated things. Like you said, udc driver can implement 'get_charger_type()' callback to check the charger type at the right time, then set the current after checking the charger type (now the gadget has been set configuration). > >> > >> > - Third, since composite driver covers 500mA (and more for CDP) after set >> > configuration and 2mA after suspend, and vbus handler covers connect >> > and disconnect.

Now charger detection can be from gadget itself or PMIC, and we focus on gadget detection. Charger IC (charger driver) is separate with gadget. When the usb cable is plugin, we need to report the plugin event to charger driver to set current after setting configuration for gadget. The usb charger is responsible for reporting plugin event to charger driver. But how usb charger get the plugin event? It can get the plugin event from gadget state (if the gadget state is more than 'USB_STATE_ATTACHED', it means one cable plugin). So we need notify gadget state to usb charger. > > -- > Best Regards, > Peter Chen -- Baolin.wang Best Regards
