Thank you for the reply! I understood it. The hdmi-connector binding has "hdp-gpios". And, this is similar with "id-gpios" of usb. > There's been some attempts[1] for USB connectors, but nothing finalized. > > Rob > > [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg161104.html This means I should finalize the USB connectors binding at first? I checked the email archive, but it seems hard to finalize though... Best regards, Yoshihiro Shimoda
