Subject: Re: [PATCH v1] tcpm: Honour pSnkStdby requirement during negotiation

Hi Guenter,

Your concern is very valid ! I was myself pondering at the
significance and meaning of
current_limit,  supply_voltage. I will pen down what I understood from
reading the code.
If it makes sense, I will add the documentation to the change as well.
In TOT code i.e. without the patch in discussion, current_limit and
supply_voltage gets
in three places.
1. tcpm_set_current_limit --------------> Actual current_limit
/voltage requested to be set
                                                             in the hardware.
2. tcpm_pd_build_request --------------> current_limit /voltage
requested to the port partner.
                                                              Not yet
accepted by port partner
3. case PD_CTRL_ACCEPT:  ----------> PPS path: new
current_limit/voltage to be set in hw &
                                                               already
accepted by the port partner.
                switch (port->state) {
                case SNK_NEGOTIATE_CAPABILITIES:
                        port->pps_data.active = false;
                        tcpm_set_state(port, SNK_TRANSITION_SINK, 0);
                        break;
                case SNK_NEGOTIATE_PPS_CAPABILITIES:
                        port->pps_data.active = true;
                        port->supply_voltage = port->pps_data.out_volt;
                        port->current_limit = port->pps_data.op_curr;
                        tcpm_set_state(port, SNK_TRANSITION_SINK, 0);

PPS path safely differentiates between new current_limit &
supply_voltage requested
to the port-partner and current_limit & supply_voltage  requested to
be set in the
hardware by caching the new requested values to partner in
port->pps_data.op_curr/_volt (in tcpm_pd_select_pps_apdo) and updates
port->supply_voltage, port->current_limit only when the port-partner responds
with an accept packet (as pointed in the above code stub).

However, when NOT IN PPS, TCPM code updates  port->current_limit &
port->supply_voltage directly in tcpm_pd_build_request where the partner can
still REJECT the request and port->current_limit & port->supply_voltage
might go out of sync. So, there is already a need to introduce new variables to
cache the requested values to port partners.

Now coming to addressing  pSnkStdby, Once the partner accepts the new request,
PD spec wants the sink to limit the power consumption to pSnkStdby (2.5W) till
source sends the PS_RDY. i.e. while TCPM waits in SNK_TRANSITION_SINK,
the sink's power consumption has to be limited to 2.5W. Sink can enforce or draw
new partner accepted current & voltage at the hardware level only
after PS_RDY is received from the port-partner.

With the patch that I am submitting, I am hoping to cleanly
differentiate between the
current limit/voltage requested to be set in hardware(
tcpm_set_current_limit) Vs
the current limit/voltage requested to the port partner.

 current_limit, supply_voltage -> Requested to be set in hardware.
 req_current_limit, req_supply_voltage -> Newly requested value to the
port partner.

Perhaps doing the following alleviates current_limit/supply_voltage ambiguity:
1. renaming current_limit, supply_voltage to hw_current_limit, hw_supply_voltage
2. making a comment saying hw_current_limit, hw_supply_voltage should only
be set in tcpm_set_current_limit.
3. Instead of calling requested values to port-partner as
req_current_limit/req_supply_voltage, maybe partner_req_current_limit,
partner_req_supply_voltage is a better name.
4. Adding a comment to state significance of hw_current_limit,
hw_supply_voltage,
partner_req_current_limit, partner_req_supply_voltage in tcpm struct.

Let me know if it makes sense I will update the patch (may be even
split if it makes
sense) and resend.

Thanks,
Badhri
