Type-C Power Delivery with Altmode Display Port in Linux-5.10

Note

TL;DR - Amarula Solutions demonstrates USB Type-C Power Delivery with Altmode DisplayPort on Rockchip RK3399 (ROC-RK3399-PC) running Linux 5.10 — using the FUSB302 Type-C controller with the Linux extcon framework.

Hardware:

SoC: Rockchip RK3399
SBC: ROC-RK3399-PC

Amarula Solutions has partnered with Libretech and started a project to push Libre Computer Boards onto Mainline U-Boot, Linux Kernel, Buildroot and Multimedia Open source projects.

The first success was that we mainlined full functional ROC-RK3399-PC(Renegade Elite) along with community developers.

Along with Mainlining, we are also providing Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa) Distribution running flawlessly on their SBC’s.

Here is the Type C Power Delivery with Altmode Display Port support in Linux-5.10. The Type-C chip FUSB302 still using Linux extcon framework and the real work is yet to push on Mainline.
