See USB-C charger info?
I accidentally plugged my notebook into a 15W phone charger instead of the 65W computer charger... but got no notice under Linux about it. I happened to reboot for updates and got a message from the BIOS about it (this is a Thinkpad T14s AMD gen 4). So I started looking to see if there's a way to tell that from within Linux, but I couldn't find anything.
Am I missing a way to tell? Would this even fall under the USB stack (if not, any suggestions for where might I ask)? I know USB-C is a "complicated" port.

Hmm, that doesn't show anything on my system. It looks like that uses info from /sys/class/typec ... but that's empty on my systems.
