Add a compatible string for binman, so we can extend fixed-partitions in various ways. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2: - Drop mention of 'enhanced features' in fixed-partitions.yaml - Mention Binman input and output properties - Use plain partition@xxx for the node name .../bindings/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml | 61 +++++++++++++++++++ .../mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml | 3 + .../bindings/mtd/partitions/partitions.yaml | 1 + MAINTAINERS | 5 ++ 4 files changed, 70 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..844f241feebf --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml @@ -0,0 +1,61 @@ +# SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0 OR BSD-2-Clause) +# Copyright 2023 Google LLC + +%YAML 1.2 +--- +$id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/mtd/partitions/binman.yaml# +$schema: http://devicetree.org/meta-schemas/core.yaml# + +title: Binman firmware layout + +maintainers: + - Simon Glass <sjg@xxxxxxxxxxxx> + +select: false + +description: | + The binman node provides a layout for firmware, used when packaging firmware + from multiple projects. It is based on fixed-partitions, with some + extensions. + + Binman supports properties used as inputs to the firmware-packaging process, + such as those which control alignment of partitions. This binding addresses + these 'input' properties. For example, it is common for the 'reg' property + (an 'output' property) to be set by Binman, based on the alignment requested + in the input. + + Once processing is complete, input properties have mostly served their + purpose, at least until the firmware is repacked later, e.g. due to a + firmware update. The base 'fixed-partitions' binding should provide enough + information to read the firmware at runtime, including decompression if + needed. + + Documentation for Binman is available at: + + https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/package/binman.html + + with the current image-description format at: + + https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/develop/package/binman.html#image-description-format + +allOf: + - $ref: /schemas/mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml# + +properties: + compatible: + const: binman + +additionalProperties: false + +examples: + - | + partitions { + compatible = "binman", "fixed-partitions"; + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <1>; + + partition@100000 { + label = "u-boot"; + reg = <0x100000 0xf00000>; + }; + }; diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml index 331e564f29dc..85aef1572967 100644 --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/fixed-partitions.yaml @@ -24,6 +24,9 @@ properties: - items: - const: sercomm,sc-partitions - const: fixed-partitions + - items: + - const: binman + - const: fixed-partitions "#address-cells": true diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/partitions.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/partitions.yaml index 1dda2c80747b..849fd15d085c 100644 --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/partitions.yaml +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/partitions.yaml @@ -15,6 +15,7 @@ maintainers: oneOf: - $ref: arm,arm-firmware-suite.yaml + - $ref: binman.yaml - $ref: brcm,bcm4908-partitions.yaml - $ref: brcm,bcm947xx-cfe-partitions.yaml - $ref: fixed-partitions.yaml diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS index 5f18c6ba3c3c..367c843ec348 100644 --- a/MAINTAINERS +++ b/MAINTAINERS @@ -3517,6 +3517,11 @@ F: Documentation/filesystems/bfs.rst F: fs/bfs/ F: include/uapi/linux/bfs_fs.h +BINMAN +M: Simon Glass <sjg@xxxxxxxxxxxx> +S: Supported +F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/binman* + BITMAP API M: Yury Norov <yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx> R: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- 2.42.0.582.g8ccd20d70d-goog
