[Ubuntu 18.04] USB Type-C test failed on GLK

this should be a regression issue.

we ever tried
CONFIG_TYPEC_UCSI=y
CONFIG_UCSI_ACPI=y

This setting will enable type-c correctly.

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1758797

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

modprobe ucsi_acpi
will work. Close it as won't fix.

Anyway, I still suggest to make m to be y in the config file. Or add the module auto loaded if possible.

reopen it to track for Canonical update.

The module already has an alias that should allow it to autoload:

alias: acpi*:PNP0CA0:*

What is the output of ls /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*PNP0CA0* on such a system?
Or grep -H . /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*PNP0CA0*/modalias?

Cascardo.

typec on GLK will work at rate 80% in Ubuntu Final Beta.
Intel upstream provide a patch will 100% pass.

I upload this patch. Intel Upstream is working on merge this patch into mainline. The time will be not defined.

Just keep watch.

Hi. I am having trouble as my USB-C do not send video to DP1.2.
Also, where 17.10 did see the external monitor, 18.04 do not.
See https://askubuntu.com/questions/1022343/usb-c-video-xiaomi-laptop-to-dell-display-no-signal for 17.10 behavior and https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/8cykbd/usbc_to_displayport_video/ for 18.10.

Can this regression/issue be related to this bug?

Have you tried the kernel from -proposed?

Thanks.
Cascardo.

Tried 4.15.0-17-generic from proposed.
Nothing changed. Xrandr do not see DP connected monitor, /sys/class/typec does not existis and this is still the ucsi is still:

CONFIG_TYPEC_UCSI=m
CONFIG_UCSI_ACPI=m

Can you send us dmesg after trying to load ucsi_acpi? The output of trying to load it might be useful as well. Thank you.

sudo modprobe ucsi_acpi
sudo dmesg

no output from
sudo modprobe ucsi_acpi

What is the output of ls /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*PNP0CA0* on such a system?
Or grep -H . /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*PNP0CA0*/modalias?
And the output of cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*PNP0CA0*/uevent?

"No such file or directory" for all 3 commands.
In that folder there is nothing that starts with PNP0CA
There are many folders starts with PNP0C

Everything is still the same BUT now the folder /sys/class/typec exists while in comment #11 did not even existed, and that was already with the .17.18 kernel. Now with .18.19 at least the folder exists. Is also empty but I can't try connect the monitor now, will do tomorrow morning.

If there's something more I can do to provide info, just let me know. Thanks.

patch has been merged into upstream:

I am on 4.15.0-20-generic now installed, reboot.
Same situation as before.
1. folder /sys/class/typec does not exists
2.
CONFIG_TYPEC_UCSI=m
CONFIG_UCSI_ACPI=m
3. xrandr do not see the external DP monitor
4. Finally, this output:

This means you are not affected by this bug, because you don't have the relevant hardware. Can you open a new bug, so we can track your problem?

Thank you.
Cascardo.

just provide the commit id in 4.17
