Hi Grant = and = David,

We have a= number of = customers trying to use device tree to write their own device drivers and t= hey = are asking a lot of API type questions.

We haven'= t found any = API type explanation/examples for using device tree other than to look at = existing drivers which can be challenging.

Is there = some = documentation that we're just missing that does exist?

We realiz= e there is = the Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt file that describes the de= vice = tree, but it doesn't explain the API.

Thanks,
John
