linux-toradex.git/include/linux/phy/phy-thunderbolt.h, branch master Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules phy: core: Define TBT phy_mode 2026-09-15T06:25:54+00:00 Konrad Dybcio konrad.dybcio@oss.qualcomm.com 2026-09-08T07:54:06+00:00 a6b889f58add38f72fbaec36e5d7ba91535d964a There exist OS-accessible USB4 and Thunderbolt PHYs that need specific configuration. Define a new phy_mode for them. Currently, USB4 and TBT3 are defined as submodes, because they're quite distinct, most visibly in the electrical/analog aspects (slightly different frequencies, timings, etc.). This results in a need to make the PHY aware of the actual mode needed (at least in the Qualcomm implementation, but I believe that'll be a general need). Newer versions of TBT are basically supersets of USB4 with higher host-side requirements, so these are not defined. This can always be changed as necessary.
