[PATCH v1 0/2] arm64: dts: qcom: add initial support for Samsung Galaxy S20 FE

[PATCH v1 0/2] arm64: dts: qcom: add initial support for Samsung Galaxy S20 FE

[Eric Gonçalves]

Add new device tree and binding for the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE
 4G/5G phone (SM-G980/SM-G981B)
It features 6GB/8GB of RAM, 128GB/256GB UFS and also has 4G/5G variants.
 For now, this device tree covers those variants as they have the same
 codename and RAM is assigned from the bootloader.

Best regards,
Eric

While the patch is correct, are there any obstacles in enabling more
devices on the phone? I'd say, buttons, remoteprocs, PCI and USB
peripherals should be low hanging fruits. If you can read pmic_array
from debugfs/qcom_socinfo, then you should be able to identify PMICs and
add corresponding regulators too.

Hello Dmitry,

Recently my device's battery stopped responding and I was not able to work on the DT any further, so I decided to upstream what I already have so far. Thanks for the feedback, I'll include more features on future patches.

Best regards,
Eric
