Subject: [PATCH V5 1/3] dt-bindings: mtd: document linux,part-probe property
Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2017 21:47:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170417194746.10697-1-zajec5@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170417182853.24281-1-zajec5@gmail.com>
From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
Support for this property has been introduced in 2010 with commit
9d5da3a9b849 ("mtd: extend physmap_of to let the device tree specify the
parition probe") but it was never documented. Fix this by adding a
proper description and example.

+- linux,part-probe: if present, this property should contain a list of strings
+ with partition probes to be used for the flash device. A role of partition
+ probe (parser) is to read/construct partition table and register found
+ partitions. Getting partition table may be platform or device specific so
+ various devices may use various Linux drivers for this purpose.

Example:
flash@0 {
label = "System-firmware";
+ linux,part-probe = "cmdlinepart", "ofpart";
/* flash type specific properties */
};
