Add devicetree source files as of Linux-3.15-rc2
This adds the Linux dts files to barebox. The dts files are
generated from Ian Campbells device-tree-rebasing.git:
git://xenbits.xen.org/people/ianc/device-tree-rebasing.git
The dts are found in dts/ in the barebox repository and
will be updated from upstream regularly, probably for each upstream
-rc.
To keep the synchronization with upstream easy no changes to
the original files are allowed under dts/. Instead changes to
upstream dts files will be done using overlays in arch/$ARCH/dts/.

This can be used +on platforms which have strong conventions about which portions of a flash are +used for what purposes, but which don't use an on-flash partition table such +as RedBoot. +NOTE: if the sub-node has a compatible string, then it is not a partition. + +#address-cells & #size-cells must both be present in the mtd device. There are +two valid values for both: +<1>: for partitions that require a single 32-bit cell to represent their + size/address (aka the value is below 4 GiB) +<2>: for partitions that require two 32-bit cells to represent their + size/address (aka the value is 4 GiB or greater). + +Required properties: +- reg : The partition's offset and size within the mtd bank. + +Optional properties: +- label : The label / name for this partition. If omitted, the label is taken + from the node name (excluding the unit address). +- read-only : This parameter, if present, is a hint to Linux that this + partition should only be mounted read-only. This is usually used for flash + partitions containing early-boot firmware images or data which should not be + clobbered. + +Examples: + + +flash@0 { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <1>; + + partition@0 { + label = "u-boot"; + reg = <0x0000000 0x100000>; + read-only; + }; + + uimage@100000 { + reg = <0x0100000 0x200000>; + }; +}; + +flash@1 { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <2>; + + /* a 4 GiB partition */ + partition@0 { + label = "filesystem"; + reg = <0x00000000 0x1 0x00000000>; + }; +}; + +flash@2 { + #address-cells = <2>; + #size-cells = <2>; + + /* an 8 GiB partition */ + partition@0 { + label = "filesystem #1"; + reg = <0x0 0x00000000 0x2 0x00000000>; + }; + + /* a 4 GiB partition */ + partition@200000000 { + label = "filesystem #2"; + reg = <0x2 0x00000000 0x1 0x00000000>; + }; +}; |
