From 0e1507c8453081c9a6a515b92f89dd00b68f5c09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Brown Date: Wed, 2 May 2012 10:38:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] extcon: Add EXTCON_MECHANICAL cable type for physical presence Some accessory detection mechanisms are able to detect that something is physically present in the socket separately to identifying what is present in the socket. This information can be useful to applications, for example allowing them to indicate that a potentially broken accessory is present, so provide a standard way to report it to userspace.
