Maybe partner can be NULL, but pdev will never be NULL. After looking at it more carefully, I agree on the pdev assignment and check being odd. I'll follow how typec_altmode_vdm handles the NULL partner case and remove the NULL check on pdev. > > + return -ENODEV; > > > > if (pdev->ops && pdev->ops->attention) > > pdev->ops->attention(pdev, vdo); > > + else > > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + > > So far this was explicitly permitted.

My rationale for logging anything is that it will make it easier to identify port partners that send Attention messages regardless of whether or not the port registers the partner Alt Mode. You're right that this is not an error, so I will treat this case as a successful return moving forward. Then the only log generated will be for a port partner that sends Attention messages to a port that hasn't registered an altmode for it. Thanks for the feedback, RD

Some usb hubs will negotiate DisplayPort Alt mode with the device but will then negotiate a data role swap after entering the alt mode. The data role swap causes the device to unregister all alt modes, however the usb hub will still send Attention messages even after failing to reregister the Alt Mode. type_altmode_attention currently does not verify whether or not a device's altmode partner exists, which results in a NULL pointer error when dereferencing the typec_altmode and typec_altmode_ops belonging to the altmode partner. This patch verifies the presence of a device's altmode partner before sending the Attention message to the Alt Mode driver. It also changes the return type from void to int so errors can be logged at the tcpm level.
