Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/fsl: add device tree binding for QE firmware
Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2010 16:42:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269380552-10418-1-git-send-email-timur@freescale.com> (raw)
Define a binding for embedding a QE firmware blob into the device tree. Also
define a new property for the QE node that links to a firmware node.

+* QE Firmware Node
+
+This node defines a firmware binary that is embedded in the device tree, for
+the purpose of passing the firmware from bootloader to the kernel, or from
+the hypervisor to the guest.
+
+The firmware node itself contains the firmware binary contents, a compatible
+property, and any firmware-specific properties. The node itself can be located
+anywhere, but should probably be placed at the top level. The QE node
+that needs the firmware should define a property that links to the firmware
+node's phandle.
+
+This node is typically not defined in the DTS. Instead, the boot loader
+normally creates the node from scratch, using a firmware binary that is already
+located in non-volatile storage or transferred from a tftp server.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: A standard property. Specify a string that indicates what
+ kind of firmware it is. For QE, this should be "fsl,qe-firmware".
+
+ - fsl,firmware
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>, encoded as an array of bytes
+ Definition: A standard property. This property contains the firmware
+ binary "blob".
+
+Example:
+ qe@e0080000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe";
+ fsl,firmware-phandle = <&qe_firmware>;
+ ...
+ }
+
+ qe_firmware:qe-firmware {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-firmware";
+ fsl,firmware = <0x70 0xcd 0x00 0x00 0x01 0x46 0x45 0x63 ...>
