USB Power Delivery Specification defines a set of product types for partners and cables. The product type can be read from the ID Header VDO which is the first object in the response to the Discover Identity command. This attribute will display the product type of the partner. The cables already have the attribute. This sysfs attribute file is only created for the partners and cables if the product type is really known in the driver. Some interfaces do not give access to the Discover Identity response from the partner or cable, but they may still supply the product type separately in some cases. When the product type of the partner or cable is detected, uevent is also raised with PRODUCT_TYPE set to show the actual product type (for example PRODUCT_TYPE=host).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
