This patchset documents a compatible string format that encodes all the information that was being encoded in qcom specific DT properties in downstream msm kernels. The goal being to come up with a format that will allow us to express the information we want to express without requiring the use of vendor specific properties. An updated dtbTool will be released after these new bindings are accepted so that users can work with non-updateable bootloaders.
This is an attempt to resolve a discussion around March of this year[1] where the arm-soc maintainers suggested we express this information through the board's compatible string. Changes from v1: * Remove unused elements (mb, panel, boot device) * Remove PMICs from board compatible * Add patches to allow us to parse PMIC compatibles with aliases [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1425503602-24916-1-git-send-email-ga...@codeaurora.org Stephen Boyd (5): devicetree: bindings: Document qcom board compatible format arm64: dts: qcom: Make msm8916-mtp compatible string compliant arm: dts: qcom: Update ifc6540 compat for qcom boot format arm64: dts: qcom: Alias pm8916 on msm8916 devices arm: dts: qcom: Add aliases for PMICs Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/qcom.txt | 51 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8074-dragonboard.dts | 2 + arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8084-ifc6540.dts | 3 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8084-mtp.dts | 1 + arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-pm8841.dtsi | 8 ++-- arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-pm8941.dtsi | 8 ++-- arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-pma8084.dtsi | 8 ++-- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/apq8016-sbc.dtsi | 1 + arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-mtp.dts | 2 +- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916-mtp.dtsi | 1 + arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/pm8916.dtsi | 6 +-- 11 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/qcom.txt -- The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of the Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
