I guess "andestech,nds32v3" is an architecture version, and the rest are specific parts? > + - device_type > + Usage: required > + Value type: <string> > + Definition: must be "cpu" > + - clock-frequency: Contains the clock frequency for CPU, in Hz. > + > +* Examples > + > +/ { > + cpu { > + device_type = "cpu"; > + compatible = "andestech,n13", "andestech,nds32v3"; > + }; This is missing the required clock-frequency property. There should be a /cpus node, with each CPU listed under that, to align with the devicetree spec. Even if you never support SMP, there's no reason to be different from other architectures. You should have something like: / { cpus { cpu { device_type = "cpu"; compatible = "andestech,n13"; clock-frequency = <...>; }; }; }; Thanks, Mark.
