[PATCH 0/4] Device Tree Quirks & the Beaglebone

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




The following patchset introduces Device Tree quirks which
apply right after unflattening. Quirks allow using a single
device tree blob to support revisions of a single board.

This makes deployment easier, since there is no need to modify
the bootloader environment, and allow booting using a very small
bootloader shim with a resulting decrease in boot time which
is extremely important in various use-cases.

For details please look at Documentation/devicetree/quirks.txt

This patch has an implicit dependency on a previous patch
"of: Custom printk format specifier for device node" for debugging
prints of device nodes.
