[PATCH v8 3/3] dt-bindings: mtd: qcom_nandc: document qcom,boot-partitions binding

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

 



Document new qcom,boot-partition binding used to apply special
read/write layout to boot partitions.

QCOM apply a special layout where spare data is not protected
by ECC for some special pages (used for boot partition). Add
Documentation on how to declare these special pages.
