Subject: Re: [PATCH] [RFC]Extcon: Change to add standard cable names in
 individual drivers.

Hi,

Here is the requirement:
driver has to give the core the list of standard cable names(exported by
the core) and can also specify the custom cable names.

Something as this :
char *cable_names_supported = {
        [0] = EXTCON_USB,   /*defined in extcon core */
        [1] = EXTCON_HEADSET,/*defined in extcon core */
        [2] = CUSTOM_CABLE /*Not defined in extcon core */
 }
As of now this is not possible because of some limitations in the extcon core.

So, I proposed this attached patch(with limitations) and below is the gist:
In the core( .C file):
char *cable_name[] = { "USB",
                                   "Cable1",
                                   "Cable2",
                                   ......
                                }
In the core ( .h file):
enum cable_name{
             USB = 0,
             CABLE1,
             CABLE2,
}

enum cable_name_support{
             USB_SUPPORT = 1<<USB,
             CABLE1 = 1 << CABLE1,
             CABLE2 = 1 << CABLE2,
 }

and driver can use it this way:
list_of_cable = EXTCON_MIC_IN_SUPPORT |
                     EXTCON_HEADPHONE_OUT_SUPPORT |
                     EXTCON_MECHANICAL_SUPPORT;

Limitations of this patch:
1. We can't specify the custom cable names and
2. It can't grow beyond 32.

One more approach that comes to mind is using the #defines
for all the cable names but that looks ugly.

Is there any better approach to make it work?
