Subject: Extending /memreserve/ to allow defining descriptions
Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2017 13:40:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9c1cb5e8-2afd-e266-72b9-20ca6622956e@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I am considering extending the /memreserve node syntax with the ability
to pass a description string that would be describing what kind of
memory is being reserved here, e:g:

/memreserve/ 0x0 0x10000 type = "psci"

The rationale would be for a client program to be able to list these
reserved regions e.g: from /proc/iomem in a way that could be made
available to other applications.

What do you think?
