61Revision Information
62====================
63
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -080064 May 18, 2005: Rev 0.1 - Initial draft, no chapter III yet.
65
66 May 19, 2005: Rev 0.2 - Add chapter III and bits & pieces here or
67 clarifies the fact that a lot of things are
68 optional, the kernel only requires a very
69 small device tree, though it is encouraged
70 to provide an as complete one as possible.
71
72 May 24, 2005: Rev 0.3 - Precise that DT block has to be in RAM
73 - Misc fixes
74 - Define version 3 and new format version 16
75 for the DT block (version 16 needs kernel
76 patches, will be fwd separately).
77 String block now has a size, and full path
78 is replaced by unit name for more
79 compactness.
80 linux,phandle is made optional, only nodes
81 that are referenced by other nodes need it.
82 "name" property is now automatically
83 deduced from the unit name
84
85 June 1, 2005: Rev 0.4 - Correct confusion between OF_DT_END and
86 OF_DT_END_NODE in structure definition.
87 - Change version 16 format to always align
88 property data to 4 bytes. Since tokens are
89 already aligned, that means no specific
Matt LaPlante5d3f0832006-11-30 05:21:10 +010090 required alignment between property size
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -080091 and property data. The old style variable
92 alignment would make it impossible to do
93 "simple" insertion of properties using
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +110094 memmove (thanks Milton for
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -080095 noticing). Updated kernel patch as well
Matt LaPlante5d3f0832006-11-30 05:21:10 +010096 - Correct a few more alignment constraints
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -080097 - Add a chapter about the device-tree
98 compiler and the textural representation of
99 the tree that can be "compiled" by dtc.
100
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800101 November 21, 2005: Rev 0.5
102 - Additions/generalizations for 32-bit
103 - Changed to reflect the new arch/powerpc
104 structure

113 names for cells that are not already defined by the existing
114 OF spec.
115 - Compare FSL SOC use of PCI to standard and make sure no new
116 node definition required.

121I - Introduction
122================
123
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700124During the development of the Linux/ppc64 kernel, and more
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800125specifically, the addition of new platform types outside of the old
126IBM pSeries/iSeries pair, it was decided to enforce some strict rules
127regarding the kernel entry and bootloader <-> kernel interfaces, in
128order to avoid the degeneration that had become the ppc32 kernel entry
129point and the way a new platform should be added to the kernel. The
130legacy iSeries platform breaks those rules as it predates this scheme,
131but no new board support will be accepted in the main tree that
Lennert Buytenhek475fc7c2010-09-21 23:22:40 +0000132doesn't follow them properly. In addition, since the advent of the
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800133arch/powerpc merged architecture for ppc32 and ppc64, new 32-bit
134platforms and 32-bit platforms which move into arch/powerpc will be
135required to use these rules as well.
136
137The main requirement that will be defined in more detail below is
138the presence of a device-tree whose format is defined after Open
139Firmware specification. However, in order to make life easier
140to embedded board vendors, the kernel doesn't require the device-tree
141to represent every device in the system and only requires some nodes
142and properties to be present. This will be described in detail in
143section III, but, for example, the kernel does not require you to
144create a node for every PCI device in the system. It is a requirement
145to have a node for PCI host bridges in order to provide interrupt
Sylvestre Ledruf65e51d2011-04-04 15:04:46 -0700146routing information and memory/IO ranges, among others. It is also
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700147recommended to define nodes for on chip devices and other buses that
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800148don't specifically fit in an existing OF specification. This creates a
149great flexibility in the way the kernel can then probe those and match
150drivers to device, without having to hard code all sorts of tables. It
151also makes it more flexible for board vendors to do minor hardware
152upgrades without significantly impacting the kernel code or cluttering
153it with special cases.
154
155
Grant Likelyede338f2011-04-28 14:27:23 -06001561) Entry point for arch/arm
157---------------------------
158
159 There is one single entry point to the kernel, at the start
160 of the kernel image. That entry point supports two calling
161 conventions. A summary of the interface is described here. A full
162 description of the boot requirements is documented in
163 Documentation/arm/Booting
164
165 a) ATAGS interface. Minimal information is passed from firmware
166 to the kernel with a tagged list of predefined parameters.
167
168 r0 : 0
169
170 r1 : Machine type number
171
172 r2 : Physical address of tagged list in system RAM
173
174 b) Entry with a flattened device-tree block. Firmware loads the
175 physical address of the flattened device tree block (dtb) into r2,
Masanari Iida40e47122012-03-04 23:16:11 +0900176 r1 is not used, but it is considered good practice to use a valid
Grant Likelyede338f2011-04-28 14:27:23 -0600177 machine number as described in Documentation/arm/Booting.
178
179 r0 : 0
180
181 r1 : Valid machine type number. When using a device tree,
182 a single machine type number will often be assigned to
183 represent a class or family of SoCs.
184
185 r2 : physical pointer to the device-tree block
186 (defined in chapter II) in RAM. Device tree can be located
187 anywhere in system RAM, but it should be aligned on a 64 bit
188 boundary.
189
190 The kernel will differentiate between ATAGS and device tree booting by
191 reading the memory pointed to by r2 and looking for either the flattened
192 device tree block magic value (0xd00dfeed) or the ATAG_CORE value at
193 offset 0x4 from r2 (0x54410001).
194
1952) Entry point for arch/powerpc
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800196-------------------------------
197
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700198 There is one single entry point to the kernel, at the start
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800199 of the kernel image. That entry point supports two calling
200 conventions:
201
202 a) Boot from Open Firmware. If your firmware is compatible
203 with Open Firmware (IEEE 1275) or provides an OF compatible
204 client interface API (support for "interpret" callback of
205 forth words isn't required), you can enter the kernel with:
206
207 r5 : OF callback pointer as defined by IEEE 1275
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100208 bindings to powerpc. Only the 32-bit client interface
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800209 is currently supported
210
211 r3, r4 : address & length of an initrd if any or 0
212
213 The MMU is either on or off; the kernel will run the
214 trampoline located in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c to
215 extract the device-tree and other information from open
216 firmware and build a flattened device-tree as described
217 in b). prom_init() will then re-enter the kernel using
218 the second method. This trampoline code runs in the
219 context of the firmware, which is supposed to handle all
220 exceptions during that time.
221
222 b) Direct entry with a flattened device-tree block. This entry
223 point is called by a) after the OF trampoline and can also be
224 called directly by a bootloader that does not support the Open
225 Firmware client interface. It is also used by "kexec" to
226 implement "hot" booting of a new kernel from a previous
227 running one. This method is what I will describe in more
228 details in this document, as method a) is simply standard Open
229 Firmware, and thus should be implemented according to the
230 various standard documents defining it and its binding to the
231 PowerPC platform. The entry point definition then becomes:
232
233 r3 : physical pointer to the device-tree block
234 (defined in chapter II) in RAM
235
236 r4 : physical pointer to the kernel itself. This is
237 used by the assembly code to properly disable the MMU
238 in case you are entering the kernel with MMU enabled
239 and a non-1:1 mapping.
240
Matt LaPlante2fe0ae72006-10-03 22:50:39 +0200241 r5 : NULL (as to differentiate with method a)
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800242
243 Note about SMP entry: Either your firmware puts your other
244 CPUs in some sleep loop or spin loop in ROM where you can get
245 them out via a soft reset or some other means, in which case
246 you don't need to care, or you'll have to enter the kernel
247 with all CPUs. The way to do that with method b) will be
248 described in a later revision of this document.
249
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800250 Board supports (platforms) are not exclusive config options. An
251 arbitrary set of board supports can be built in a single kernel
252 image. The kernel will "know" what set of functions to use for a
253 given platform based on the content of the device-tree. Thus, you
254 should:
255
256 a) add your platform support as a _boolean_ option in
257 arch/powerpc/Kconfig, following the example of PPC_PSERIES,
258 PPC_PMAC and PPC_MAPLE. The later is probably a good
259 example of a board support to start from.
260
261 b) create your main platform file as
262 "arch/powerpc/platforms/myplatform/myboard_setup.c" and add it
263 to the Makefile under the condition of your CONFIG_
264 option. This file will define a structure of type "ppc_md"
265 containing the various callbacks that the generic code will
266 use to get to your platform specific code
267
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700268 A kernel image may support multiple platforms, but only if the
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100269 platforms feature the same core architecture. A single kernel build
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800270 cannot support both configurations with Book E and configurations
271 with classic Powerpc architectures.
272
Grant Likelyede338f2011-04-28 14:27:23 -06002733) Entry point for arch/x86
Sebastian Andrzej Siewiorda6b7372011-02-22 21:07:37 +0100274-------------------------------
275
276 There is one single 32bit entry point to the kernel at code32_start,
277 the decompressor (the real mode entry point goes to the same 32bit
278 entry point once it switched into protected mode). That entry point
279 supports one calling convention which is documented in
280 Documentation/x86/boot.txt
281 The physical pointer to the device-tree block (defined in chapter II)
282 is passed via setup_data which requires at least boot protocol 2.09.
283 The type filed is defined as
284
285 #define SETUP_DTB 2
286
287 This device-tree is used as an extension to the "boot page". As such it
288 does not parse / consider data which is already covered by the boot
289 page. This includes memory size, reserved ranges, command line arguments
290 or initrd address. It simply holds information which can not be retrieved
291 otherwise like interrupt routing or a list of devices behind an I2C bus.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800292
Kevin Cernekee9c24ce22014-12-25 09:49:11 -08002934) Entry point for arch/mips/bmips
294----------------------------------
295
296 Some bootloaders only support a single entry point, at the start of the
297 kernel image. Other bootloaders will jump to the ELF start address.
298 Both schemes are supported; CONFIG_BOOT_RAW=y and CONFIG_NO_EXCEPT_FILL=y,
299 so the first instruction immediately jumps to kernel_entry().
300
301 Similar to the arch/arm case (b), a DT-aware bootloader is expected to
302 set up the following registers:
303
304 a0 : 0
305
306 a1 : 0xffffffff
307
308 a2 : Physical pointer to the device tree block (defined in chapter
309 II) in RAM. The device tree can be located anywhere in the first
310 512MB of the physical address space (0x00000000 - 0x1fffffff),
311 aligned on a 64 bit boundary.
312
313 Legacy bootloaders do not use this convention, and they do not pass in a
314 DT block. In this case, Linux will look for a builtin DTB, selected via
315 CONFIG_DT_*.
316
317 This convention is defined for 32-bit systems only, as there are not
318 currently any 64-bit BMIPS implementations.
319
Rich Felker7480e0a2016-01-23 00:45:41 +00003205) Entry point for arch/sh
321--------------------------
322
323 Device-tree-compatible SH bootloaders are expected to provide the physical
324 address of the device tree blob in r4. Since legacy bootloaders did not
325 guarantee any particular initial register state, kernels built to
326 inter-operate with old bootloaders must either use a builtin DTB or
327 select a legacy board option (something other than CONFIG_SH_DEVICE_TREE)
328 that does not use device tree. Support for the latter is being phased out
329 in favor of device tree.
330
331
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800332II - The DT block format
333========================
334
335
336This chapter defines the actual format of the flattened device-tree
337passed to the kernel. The actual content of it and kernel requirements
338are described later. You can find example of code manipulating that
339format in various places, including arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c
340which will generate a flattened device-tree from the Open Firmware
341representation, or the fs2dt utility which is part of the kexec tools
342which will generate one from a filesystem representation. It is
343expected that a bootloader like uboot provides a bit more support,
344that will be discussed later as well.
345
346Note: The block has to be in main memory. It has to be accessible in
347both real mode and virtual mode with no mapping other than main
348memory. If you are writing a simple flash bootloader, it should copy
349the block to RAM before passing it to the kernel.
350
351
3521) Header
353---------
354
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700355 The kernel is passed the physical address pointing to an area of memory
356 that is roughly described in include/linux/of_fdt.h by the structure
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800357 boot_param_header:
358
359struct boot_param_header {
360 u32 magic; /* magic word OF_DT_HEADER */
361 u32 totalsize; /* total size of DT block */
362 u32 off_dt_struct; /* offset to structure */
363 u32 off_dt_strings; /* offset to strings */
364 u32 off_mem_rsvmap; /* offset to memory reserve map
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100365 */
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800366 u32 version; /* format version */
367 u32 last_comp_version; /* last compatible version */
368
369 /* version 2 fields below */
370 u32 boot_cpuid_phys; /* Which physical CPU id we're
371 booting on */
372 /* version 3 fields below */
373 u32 size_dt_strings; /* size of the strings block */
David Gibson0e0293c2007-03-14 11:50:40 +1100374
375 /* version 17 fields below */
376 u32 size_dt_struct; /* size of the DT structure block */
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800377};
378
379 Along with the constants:
380
381/* Definitions used by the flattened device tree */
382#define OF_DT_HEADER 0xd00dfeed /* 4: version,
383 4: total size */
384#define OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE 0x1 /* Start node: full name
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100385 */
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800386#define OF_DT_END_NODE 0x2 /* End node */
387#define OF_DT_PROP 0x3 /* Property: name off,
388 size, content */
389#define OF_DT_END 0x9
390
391 All values in this header are in big endian format, the various
392 fields in this header are defined more precisely below. All
393 "offset" values are in bytes from the start of the header; that is
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700394 from the physical base address of the device tree block.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800395
396 - magic
397
398 This is a magic value that "marks" the beginning of the
399 device-tree block header. It contains the value 0xd00dfeed and is
400 defined by the constant OF_DT_HEADER
401
402 - totalsize
403
404 This is the total size of the DT block including the header. The
405 "DT" block should enclose all data structures defined in this
406 chapter (who are pointed to by offsets in this header). That is,
407 the device-tree structure, strings, and the memory reserve map.
408
409 - off_dt_struct
410
411 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
412 of the "structure" part the device tree. (see 2) device tree)
413
414 - off_dt_strings
415
416 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
417 of the "strings" part of the device-tree
418
419 - off_mem_rsvmap
420
421 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100422 of the reserved memory map. This map is a list of pairs of 64-
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800423 bit integers. Each pair is a physical address and a size. The
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800424 list is terminated by an entry of size 0. This map provides the
425 kernel with a list of physical memory areas that are "reserved"
426 and thus not to be used for memory allocations, especially during
427 early initialization. The kernel needs to allocate memory during
428 boot for things like un-flattening the device-tree, allocating an
429 MMU hash table, etc... Those allocations must be done in such a
430 way to avoid overriding critical things like, on Open Firmware
431 capable machines, the RTAS instance, or on some pSeries, the TCE
432 tables used for the iommu. Typically, the reserve map should
433 contain _at least_ this DT block itself (header,total_size). If
434 you are passing an initrd to the kernel, you should reserve it as
435 well. You do not need to reserve the kernel image itself. The map
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100436 should be 64-bit aligned.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800437
438 - version
439
440 This is the version of this structure. Version 1 stops
441 here. Version 2 adds an additional field boot_cpuid_phys.
442 Version 3 adds the size of the strings block, allowing the kernel
443 to reallocate it easily at boot and free up the unused flattened
444 structure after expansion. Version 16 introduces a new more
445 "compact" format for the tree itself that is however not backward
David Gibson0e0293c2007-03-14 11:50:40 +1100446 compatible. Version 17 adds an additional field, size_dt_struct,
447 allowing it to be reallocated or moved more easily (this is
448 particularly useful for bootloaders which need to make
449 adjustments to a device tree based on probed information). You
450 should always generate a structure of the highest version defined
451 at the time of your implementation. Currently that is version 17,
452 unless you explicitly aim at being backward compatible.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800453
454 - last_comp_version
455
456 Last compatible version. This indicates down to what version of
457 the DT block you are backward compatible. For example, version 2
458 is backward compatible with version 1 (that is, a kernel build
459 for version 1 will be able to boot with a version 2 format). You
460 should put a 1 in this field if you generate a device tree of
David Gibson0e0293c2007-03-14 11:50:40 +1100461 version 1 to 3, or 16 if you generate a tree of version 16 or 17
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800462 using the new unit name format.
463
464 - boot_cpuid_phys
465
466 This field only exist on version 2 headers. It indicate which
467 physical CPU ID is calling the kernel entry point. This is used,
468 among others, by kexec. If you are on an SMP system, this value
469 should match the content of the "reg" property of the CPU node in
470 the device-tree corresponding to the CPU calling the kernel entry
Sylvestre Ledruf65e51d2011-04-04 15:04:46 -0700471 point (see further chapters for more information on the required
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800472 device-tree contents)
473
David Gibson0e0293c2007-03-14 11:50:40 +1100474 - size_dt_strings
475
476 This field only exists on version 3 and later headers. It
477 gives the size of the "strings" section of the device tree (which
478 starts at the offset given by off_dt_strings).
479
480 - size_dt_struct
481
482 This field only exists on version 17 and later headers. It gives
483 the size of the "structure" section of the device tree (which
484 starts at the offset given by off_dt_struct).
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800485
486 So the typical layout of a DT block (though the various parts don't
487 need to be in that order) looks like this (addresses go from top to
488 bottom):

516 the individual data blocks.

518
5192) Device tree generalities
520---------------------------
521
522This device-tree itself is separated in two different blocks, a
523structure block and a strings block. Both need to be aligned to a 4
524byte boundary.
525
526First, let's quickly describe the device-tree concept before detailing
527the storage format. This chapter does _not_ describe the detail of the
528required types of nodes & properties for the kernel, this is done
529later in chapter III.
530
531The device-tree layout is strongly inherited from the definition of
532the Open Firmware IEEE 1275 device-tree. It's basically a tree of
533nodes, each node having two or more named properties. A property can
534have a value or not.
535
536It is a tree, so each node has one and only one parent except for the
537root node who has no parent.
538
539A node has 2 names. The actual node name is generally contained in a
540property of type "name" in the node property list whose value is a
541zero terminated string and is mandatory for version 1 to 3 of the
David Gibson0e0293c2007-03-14 11:50:40 +1100542format definition (as it is in Open Firmware). Version 16 makes it
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800543optional as it can generate it from the unit name defined below.
544
Matt LaPlante2fe0ae72006-10-03 22:50:39 +0200545There is also a "unit name" that is used to differentiate nodes with
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800546the same name at the same level, it is usually made of the node
Matt LaPlante2fe0ae72006-10-03 22:50:39 +0200547names, the "@" sign, and a "unit address", which definition is
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800548specific to the bus type the node sits on.
549
550The unit name doesn't exist as a property per-se but is included in
551the device-tree structure. It is typically used to represent "path" in
552the device-tree. More details about the actual format of these will be
553below.
554
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700555The kernel generic code does not make any formal use of the
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800556unit address (though some board support code may do) so the only real
557requirement here for the unit address is to ensure uniqueness of
558the node unit name at a given level of the tree. Nodes with no notion
559of address and no possible sibling of the same name (like /memory or
560/cpus) may omit the unit address in the context of this specification,
561or use the "@0" default unit address. The unit name is used to define
562a node "full path", which is the concatenation of all parent node
563unit names separated with "/".
564
565The root node doesn't have a defined name, and isn't required to have
566a name property either if you are using version 3 or earlier of the
567format. It also has no unit address (no @ symbol followed by a unit
568address). The root node unit name is thus an empty string. The full
569path to the root node is "/".
570
571Every node which actually represents an actual device (that is, a node
572which isn't only a virtual "container" for more nodes, like "/cpus"
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700573is) is also required to have a "compatible" property indicating the
574specific hardware and an optional list of devices it is fully
575backwards compatible with.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800576
577Finally, every node that can be referenced from a property in another
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700578node is required to have either a "phandle" or a "linux,phandle"
579property. Real Open Firmware implementations provide a unique
580"phandle" value for every node that the "prom_init()" trampoline code
581turns into "linux,phandle" properties. However, this is made optional
582if the flattened device tree is used directly. An example of a node
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800583referencing another node via "phandle" is when laying out the
584interrupt tree which will be described in a further version of this
585document.
586
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700587The "phandle" property is a 32-bit value that uniquely
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800588identifies a node. You are free to use whatever values or system of
589values, internal pointers, or whatever to generate these, the only
590requirement is that every node for which you provide that property has
591a unique value for it.
592
593Here is an example of a simple device-tree. In this example, an "o"
594designates a node followed by the node unit name. Properties are
595presented with their name followed by their content. "content"
596represents an ASCII string (zero terminated) value, while <content>
Roland Stigge36793622012-05-16 22:33:55 +0200597represents a 32-bit value, specified in decimal or hexadecimal (the
598latter prefixed 0x). The various nodes in this example will be
599discussed in a later chapter. At this point, it is only meant to give
600you a idea of what a device-tree looks like. I have purposefully kept
601the "name" and "linux,phandle" properties which aren't necessary in
602order to give you a better idea of what the tree looks like in
603practice.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800604
605 / o device-tree
606 |- name = "device-tree"
607 |- model = "MyBoardName"
608 |- compatible = "MyBoardFamilyName"
609 |- #address-cells = <2>
610 |- #size-cells = <2>
611 |- linux,phandle = <0>
612 |
613 o cpus
614 | | - name = "cpus"
615 | | - linux,phandle = <1>
616 | | - #address-cells = <1>
617 | | - #size-cells = <0>
618 | |
619 | o PowerPC,970@0
620 | |- name = "PowerPC,970"
621 | |- device_type = "cpu"
622 | |- reg = <0>
Roland Stigge36793622012-05-16 22:33:55 +0200623 | |- clock-frequency = <0x5f5e1000>

628 | |- name = "memory"
629 | |- device_type = "memory"
Roland Stigge36793622012-05-16 22:33:55 +0200630 | |- reg = <0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x20000000>
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800631 | |- linux,phandle = <3>
632 |
633 o chosen
634 |- name = "chosen"
635 |- bootargs = "root=/dev/sda2"
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800636 |- linux,phandle = <4>
637
638This tree is almost a minimal tree. It pretty much contains the
639minimal set of required nodes and properties to boot a linux kernel;
Sylvestre Ledruf65e51d2011-04-04 15:04:46 -0700640that is, some basic model information at the root, the CPUs, and the
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800641physical memory layout. It also includes misc information passed
642through /chosen, like in this example, the platform type (mandatory)
643and the kernel command line arguments (optional).
644
Timur Tabi32aed2a2007-02-14 15:29:07 -0600645The /cpus/PowerPC,970@0/64-bit property is an example of a
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800646property without a value. All other properties have a value. The
647significance of the #address-cells and #size-cells properties will be
648explained in chapter IV which defines precisely the required nodes and
649properties and their content.
650
651
6523) Device tree "structure" block
653
654The structure of the device tree is a linearized tree structure. The
655"OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE" token starts a new node, and the "OF_DT_END_NODE"
656ends that node definition. Child nodes are simply defined before
657"OF_DT_END_NODE" (that is nodes within the node). A 'token' is a 32
658bit value. The tree has to be "finished" with a OF_DT_END token
659
660Here's the basic structure of a single node:
661
662 * token OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE (that is 0x00000001)
663 * for version 1 to 3, this is the node full path as a zero
664 terminated string, starting with "/". For version 16 and later,
665 this is the node unit name only (or an empty string for the
666 root node)
667 * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
668 * for each property:
669 * token OF_DT_PROP (that is 0x00000003)
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100670 * 32-bit value of property value size in bytes (or 0 if no
671 value)
672 * 32-bit value of offset in string block of property name
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800673 * property value data if any
674 * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
675 * [child nodes if any]
676 * token OF_DT_END_NODE (that is 0x00000002)
677
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100678So the node content can be summarized as a start token, a full path,
Matt LaPlante53cb4722006-10-03 22:55:17 +0200679a list of properties, a list of child nodes, and an end token. Every
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800680child node is a full node structure itself as defined above.
681
David Gibsoneff2ebd2007-06-28 15:56:26 +1000682NOTE: The above definition requires that all property definitions for
683a particular node MUST precede any subnode definitions for that node.
684Although the structure would not be ambiguous if properties and
685subnodes were intermingled, the kernel parser requires that the
686properties come first (up until at least 2.6.22). Any tools
687manipulating a flattened tree must take care to preserve this
688constraint.
689
Matt LaPlante53cb4722006-10-03 22:55:17 +02006904) Device tree "strings" block
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800691
692In order to save space, property names, which are generally redundant,
693are stored separately in the "strings" block. This block is simply the
694whole bunch of zero terminated strings for all property names
695concatenated together. The device-tree property definitions in the
696structure block will contain offset values from the beginning of the
697strings block.
698
699
700III - Required content of the device tree
701=========================================
702
703WARNING: All "linux,*" properties defined in this document apply only
704to a flattened device-tree. If your platform uses a real
705implementation of Open Firmware or an implementation compatible with
706the Open Firmware client interface, those properties will be created
707by the trampoline code in the kernel's prom_init() file. For example,
708that's where you'll have to add code to detect your board model and
Matt LaPlantea2ffd272006-10-03 22:49:15 +0200709set the platform number. However, when using the flattened device-tree
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800710entry point, there is no prom_init() pass, and thus you have to
711provide those properties yourself.
712
713
7141) Note about cells and address representation
715----------------------------------------------
716
717The general rule is documented in the various Open Firmware
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100718documentations. If you choose to describe a bus with the device-tree
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800719and there exist an OF bus binding, then you should follow the
720specification. However, the kernel does not require every single
721device or bus to be described by the device tree.
722
723In general, the format of an address for a device is defined by the
724parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells
Mark A. Greer5b14e5f2008-01-04 02:40:47 +1100725properties. Note that the parent's parent definitions of #address-cells
Matt LaPlanted9195882008-07-25 19:45:33 -0700726and #size-cells are not inherited so every node with children must specify
Mark A. Greer5b14e5f2008-01-04 02:40:47 +1100727them. The kernel requires the root node to have those properties defining
728addresses format for devices directly mapped on the processor bus.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800729
730Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100731size. A "cell" is a 32-bit number. For example, if both contain 2
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800732like the example tree given above, then an address and a size are both
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100733composed of 2 cells, and each is a 64-bit number (cells are
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800734concatenated and expected to be in big endian format). Another example
735is the way Apple firmware defines them, with 2 cells for an address
736and one cell for a size. Most 32-bit implementations should define
737#address-cells and #size-cells to 1, which represents a 32-bit value.
738Some 32-bit processors allow for physical addresses greater than 32
739bits; these processors should define #address-cells as 2.
740
741"reg" properties are always a tuple of the type "address size" where
742the number of cells of address and size is specified by the bus
743#address-cells and #size-cells. When a bus supports various address
744spaces and other flags relative to a given address allocation (like
745prefetchable, etc...) those flags are usually added to the top level
746bits of the physical address. For example, a PCI physical address is
747made of 3 cells, the bottom two containing the actual address itself
748while the top cell contains address space indication, flags, and pci
749bus & device numbers.
750
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700751For buses that support dynamic allocation, it's the accepted practice
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800752to then not provide the address in "reg" (keep it 0) though while
753providing a flag indicating the address is dynamically allocated, and
754then, to provide a separate "assigned-addresses" property that
755contains the fully allocated addresses. See the PCI OF bindings for
756details.
757
758In general, a simple bus with no address space bits and no dynamic
759allocation is preferred if it reflects your hardware, as the existing
760kernel address parsing functions will work out of the box. If you
761define a bus type with a more complex address format, including things
762like address space bits, you'll have to add a bus translator to the
763prom_parse.c file of the recent kernels for your bus type.
764
Stephen Neuendorffere1fd1862007-12-04 12:08:57 +1100765The "reg" property only defines addresses and sizes (if #size-cells is
766non-0) within a given bus. In order to translate addresses upward
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100767(that is into parent bus addresses, and possibly into CPU physical
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700768addresses), all buses must contain a "ranges" property. If the
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800769"ranges" property is missing at a given level, it's assumed that
Stephen Neuendorffere1fd1862007-12-04 12:08:57 +1100770translation isn't possible, i.e., the registers are not visible on the
771parent bus. The format of the "ranges" property for a bus is a list
772of:
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800773
774 bus address, parent bus address, size
775
776"bus address" is in the format of the bus this bus node is defining,
777that is, for a PCI bridge, it would be a PCI address. Thus, (bus
778address, size) defines a range of addresses for child devices. "parent
779bus address" is in the format of the parent bus of this bus. For
780example, for a PCI host controller, that would be a CPU address. For a
781PCI<->ISA bridge, that would be a PCI address. It defines the base
782address in the parent bus where the beginning of that range is mapped.

Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700784For new 64-bit board support, I recommend either the 2/2 format or
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800785Apple's 2/1 format which is slightly more compact since sizes usually
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700786fit in a single 32-bit word. New 32-bit board support should use a
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08007871/1 format, unless the processor supports physical addresses greater
788than 32-bits, in which case a 2/1 format is recommended.
789
Stephen Neuendorffere1fd1862007-12-04 12:08:57 +1100790Alternatively, the "ranges" property may be empty, indicating that the
791registers are visible on the parent bus using an identity mapping
792translation. In other words, the parent bus address space is the same
793as the child bus address space.

7952) Note about "compatible" properties
796-------------------------------------
797
798These properties are optional, but recommended in devices and the root
799node. The format of a "compatible" property is a list of concatenated
800zero terminated strings. They allow a device to express its
801compatibility with a family of similar devices, in some cases,
802allowing a single driver to match against several devices regardless
803of their actual names.
804
8053) Note about "name" properties
806-------------------------------
807
808While earlier users of Open Firmware like OldWorld macintoshes tended
809to use the actual device name for the "name" property, it's nowadays
810considered a good practice to use a name that is closer to the device
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700811class (often equal to device_type). For example, nowadays, Ethernet
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800812controllers are named "ethernet", an additional "model" property
813defining precisely the chip type/model, and "compatible" property
814defining the family in case a single driver can driver more than one
815of these chips. However, the kernel doesn't generally put any
816restriction on the "name" property; it is simply considered good
817practice to follow the standard and its evolutions as closely as
818possible.
819
820Note also that the new format version 16 makes the "name" property
821optional. If it's absent for a node, then the node's unit name is then
822used to reconstruct the name. That is, the part of the unit name
823before the "@" sign is used (or the entire unit name if no "@" sign
824is present).
825
8264) Note about node and property names and character set
827-------------------------------------------------------
828
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700829While Open Firmware provides more flexible usage of 8859-1, this
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800830specification enforces more strict rules. Nodes and properties should
831be comprised only of ASCII characters 'a' to 'z', '0' to
832'9', ',', '.', '_', '+', '#', '?', and '-'. Node names additionally
833allow uppercase characters 'A' to 'Z' (property names should be
834lowercase. The fact that vendors like Apple don't respect this rule is
835irrelevant here). Additionally, node and property names should always
836begin with a character in the range 'a' to 'z' (or 'A' to 'Z' for node
837names).
838
839The maximum number of characters for both nodes and property names
840is 31. In the case of node names, this is only the leftmost part of
841a unit name (the pure "name" property), it doesn't include the unit
842address which can extend beyond that limit.
843
844
8455) Required nodes and properties
846--------------------------------
847 These are all that are currently required. However, it is strongly
848 recommended that you expose PCI host bridges as documented in the
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700849 PCI binding to Open Firmware, and your interrupt tree as documented
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800850 in OF interrupt tree specification.
851
852 a) The root node
853
854 The root node requires some properties to be present:
855
856 - model : this is your board name/model
857 - #address-cells : address representation for "root" devices
858 - #size-cells: the size representation for "root" devices
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800859 - compatible : the board "family" generally finds its way here,
860 for example, if you have 2 board models with a similar layout,
861 that typically get driven by the same platform code in the
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700862 kernel, you would specify the exact board model in the
863 compatible property followed by an entry that represents the SoC
864 model.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800865
866 The root node is also generally where you add additional properties
867 specific to your board like the serial number if any, that sort of
Matt LaPlante6c28f2c2006-10-03 22:46:31 +0200868 thing. It is recommended that if you add any "custom" property whose
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800869 name may clash with standard defined ones, you prefix them with your
870 vendor name and a comma.
871
Paul Kocialkowski13dd92b2015-05-06 15:22:36 +0100872 Additional properties for the root node:
873
874 - serial-number : a string representing the device's serial number
875
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800876 b) The /cpus node
877
878 This node is the parent of all individual CPU nodes. It doesn't
879 have any specific requirements, though it's generally good practice
880 to have at least:
881
882 #address-cells = <00000001>
883 #size-cells = <00000000>
884
885 This defines that the "address" for a CPU is a single cell, and has
886 no meaningful size. This is not necessary but the kernel will assume
887 that format when reading the "reg" properties of a CPU node, see
888 below
889
890 c) The /cpus/* nodes
891
892 So under /cpus, you are supposed to create a node for every CPU on
893 the machine. There is no specific restriction on the name of the
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700894 CPU, though it's common to call it <architecture>,<core>. For
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800895 example, Apple uses PowerPC,G5 while IBM uses PowerPC,970FX.
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700896 However, the Generic Names convention suggests that it would be
897 better to simply use 'cpu' for each cpu node and use the compatible
898 property to identify the specific cpu core.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800899
900 Required properties:
901
902 - device_type : has to be "cpu"
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100903 - reg : This is the physical CPU number, it's a single 32-bit cell
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800904 and is also used as-is as the unit number for constructing the
905 unit name in the full path. For example, with 2 CPUs, you would
906 have the full path:
907 /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@0
908 /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@1
909 (unit addresses do not require leading zeroes)
Benjamin Herrenschmidt20474ab2007-10-28 08:49:28 +1100910 - d-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 data cache block size in bytes (*)
911 - i-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache block size in
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800912 bytes
913 - d-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 data cache in bytes
914 - i-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 instruction cache in bytes
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800915
Benjamin Herrenschmidt20474ab2007-10-28 08:49:28 +1100916(*) The cache "block" size is the size on which the cache management
917instructions operate. Historically, this document used the cache
918"line" size here which is incorrect. The kernel will prefer the cache
919block size and will fallback to cache line size for backward
920compatibility.
921
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800922 Recommended properties:
923
924 - timebase-frequency : a cell indicating the frequency of the
925 timebase in Hz. This is not directly used by the generic code,
926 but you are welcome to copy/paste the pSeries code for setting
927 the kernel timebase/decrementer calibration based on this
928 value.
929 - clock-frequency : a cell indicating the CPU core clock frequency
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +1100930 in Hz. A new property will be defined for 64-bit values, but if
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800931 your frequency is < 4Ghz, one cell is enough. Here as well as
932 for the above, the common code doesn't use that property, but
933 you are welcome to re-use the pSeries or Maple one. A future
934 kernel version might provide a common function for this.
Benjamin Herrenschmidt20474ab2007-10-28 08:49:28 +1100935 - d-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 data cache line size in bytes
936 if different from the block size
937 - i-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache line size in
938 bytes if different from the block size
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800939
940 You are welcome to add any property you find relevant to your board,
941 like some information about the mechanism used to soft-reset the
942 CPUs. For example, Apple puts the GPIO number for CPU soft reset
943 lines in there as a "soft-reset" property since they start secondary
944 CPUs by soft-resetting them.
945
946
947 d) the /memory node(s)
948
949 To define the physical memory layout of your board, you should
950 create one or more memory node(s). You can either create a single
951 node with all memory ranges in its reg property, or you can create
952 several nodes, as you wish. The unit address (@ part) used for the
953 full path is the address of the first range of memory defined by a
954 given node. If you use a single memory node, this will typically be
955 @0.
956
957 Required properties:
958
959 - device_type : has to be "memory"
960 - reg : This property contains all the physical memory ranges of
961 your board. It's a list of addresses/sizes concatenated
962 together, with the number of cells of each defined by the
963 #address-cells and #size-cells of the root node. For example,
Matt LaPlante6c28f2c2006-10-03 22:46:31 +0200964 with both of these properties being 2 like in the example given
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800965 earlier, a 970 based machine with 6Gb of RAM could typically
966 have a "reg" property here that looks like:
967
968 00000000 00000000 00000000 80000000
969 00000001 00000000 00000001 00000000
970
971 That is a range starting at 0 of 0x80000000 bytes and a range
972 starting at 0x100000000 and of 0x100000000 bytes. You can see
973 that there is no memory covering the IO hole between 2Gb and
974 4Gb. Some vendors prefer splitting those ranges into smaller
975 segments, but the kernel doesn't care.
976
977 e) The /chosen node
978
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700979 This node is a bit "special". Normally, that's where Open Firmware
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800980 puts some variable environment information, like the arguments, or
Stuart Yoderd1bff9e2007-02-19 11:25:05 -0600981 the default input/output devices.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800982
983 This specification makes a few of these mandatory, but also defines
984 some linux-specific properties that would be normally constructed by
985 the prom_init() trampoline when booting with an OF client interface,
986 but that you have to provide yourself when using the flattened format.
987
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800988 Recommended properties:
989
990 - bootargs : This zero-terminated string is passed as the kernel
991 command line
992 - linux,stdout-path : This is the full path to your standard
993 console device if any. Typically, if you have serial devices on
994 your board, you may want to put the full path to the one set as
995 the default console in the firmware here, for the kernel to pick
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -0700996 it up as its own default console.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -0800997
998 Note that u-boot creates and fills in the chosen node for platforms
999 that use it.
1000
Stuart Yoderd1bff9e2007-02-19 11:25:05 -06001001 (Note: a practice that is now obsolete was to include a property
1002 under /chosen called interrupt-controller which had a phandle value
1003 that pointed to the main interrupt controller)
1004
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001005 f) the /soc<SOCname> node
1006
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001007 This node is used to represent a system-on-a-chip (SoC) and must be
1008 present if the processor is a SoC. The top-level soc node contains
1009 information that is global to all devices on the SoC. The node name
1010 should contain a unit address for the SoC, which is the base address
1011 of the memory-mapped register set for the SoC. The name of an SoC
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001012 node should start with "soc", and the remainder of the name should
1013 represent the part number for the soc. For example, the MPC8540's
1014 soc node would be called "soc8540".
1015
1016 Required properties:
1017
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001018 - ranges : Should be defined as specified in 1) to describe the
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001019 translation of SoC addresses for memory mapped SoC registers.
1020 - bus-frequency: Contains the bus frequency for the SoC node.
Becky Bruce7d4b95a2006-02-06 14:26:31 -06001021 Typically, the value of this field is filled in by the boot
Stefan Roeseefcc2da2009-04-16 15:11:54 -06001022 loader.
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001023 - compatible : Exact model of the SoC
Becky Bruce7d4b95a2006-02-06 14:26:31 -06001024
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001025
1026 Recommended properties:
1027
1028 - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
1029 memory-mapped registers that are used for the SOC node itself.
1030 It does not include the child device registers - these will be
1031 defined inside each child node. The address specified in the
1032 "reg" property should match the unit address of the SOC node.
1033 - #address-cells : Address representation for "soc" devices. The
1034 format of this field may vary depending on whether or not the
1035 device registers are memory mapped. For memory mapped
1036 registers, this field represents the number of cells needed to
1037 represent the address of the registers. For SOCs that do not
1038 use MMIO, a special address format should be defined that
1039 contains enough cells to represent the required information.
1040 See 1) above for more details on defining #address-cells.
1041 - #size-cells : Size representation for "soc" devices
1042 - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
1043 interrupts. Typically this value is <2>, which includes a
1044 32-bit number that represents the interrupt number, and a
1045 32-bit number that represents the interrupt sense and level.
1046 This field is only needed if the SOC contains an interrupt
1047 controller.
1048
1049 The SOC node may contain child nodes for each SOC device that the
1050 platform uses. Nodes should not be created for devices which exist
1051 on the SOC but are not used by a particular platform. See chapter VI
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +11001052 for more information on how to specify devices that are part of a SOC.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001053
1054 Example SOC node for the MPC8540:
1055
1056 soc8540@e0000000 {
1057 #address-cells = <1>;
1058 #size-cells = <1>;
1059 #interrupt-cells = <2>;
1060 device_type = "soc";
Roland Stigge36793622012-05-16 22:33:55 +02001061 ranges = <0x00000000 0xe0000000 0x00100000>
1062 reg = <0xe0000000 0x00003000>;
Becky Bruce7d4b95a2006-02-06 14:26:31 -06001063 bus-frequency = <0>;
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001064 }
1065
1066
1067
1068IV - "dtc", the device tree compiler
1069====================================
1070
1071
1072dtc source code can be found at
Justin P. Mattock0ea6e612010-07-23 20:51:24 -07001073<http://git.jdl.com/gitweb/?p=dtc.git>
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001074
1075WARNING: This version is still in early development stage; the
1076resulting device-tree "blobs" have not yet been validated with the
Lennert Buytenhek475fc7c2010-09-21 23:22:40 +00001077kernel. The current generated block lacks a useful reserve map (it will
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001078be fixed to generate an empty one, it's up to the bootloader to fill
1079it up) among others. The error handling needs work, bugs are lurking,
1080etc...
1081
1082dtc basically takes a device-tree in a given format and outputs a
1083device-tree in another format. The currently supported formats are:
1084
1085 Input formats:
1086 -------------
1087
1088 - "dtb": "blob" format, that is a flattened device-tree block
1089 with
1090 header all in a binary blob.
1091 - "dts": "source" format. This is a text file containing a
1092 "source" for a device-tree. The format is defined later in this
1093 chapter.
1094 - "fs" format. This is a representation equivalent to the
1095 output of /proc/device-tree, that is nodes are directories and
1096 properties are files
1097
1098 Output formats:
1099 ---------------
1100
1101 - "dtb": "blob" format
1102 - "dts": "source" format
1103 - "asm": assembly language file. This is a file that can be
1104 sourced by gas to generate a device-tree "blob". That file can
1105 then simply be added to your Makefile. Additionally, the
Matt LaPlante6c28f2c2006-10-03 22:46:31 +02001106 assembly file exports some symbols that can be used.
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001107
1108
1109The syntax of the dtc tool is
1110
1111 dtc [-I <input-format>] [-O <output-format>]
1112 [-o output-filename] [-V output_version] input_filename
1113
1114
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +11001115The "output_version" defines what version of the "blob" format will be
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001116generated. Supported versions are 1,2,3 and 16. The default is
1117currently version 3 but that may change in the future to version 16.
1118
1119Additionally, dtc performs various sanity checks on the tree, like the
Matt LaPlante6c28f2c2006-10-03 22:46:31 +02001120uniqueness of linux, phandle properties, validity of strings, etc...
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001121
1122The format of the .dts "source" file is "C" like, supports C and C++
Matt LaPlante6c28f2c2006-10-03 22:46:31 +02001123style comments.

1161Nodes can contain other nodes etc... thus defining the hierarchical
1162structure of the tree.
1163
1164Strings support common escape sequences from C: "\n", "\t", "\r",
1165"\(octal value)", "\x(hex value)".
1166
1167It is also suggested that you pipe your source file through cpp (gcc
1168preprocessor) so you can use #include's, #define for constants, etc...
1169
1170Finally, various options are planned but not yet implemented, like
1171automatic generation of phandles, labels (exported to the asm file so
1172you can point to a property content and change it easily from whatever
1173you link the device-tree with), label or path instead of numeric value
1174in some cells to "point" to a node (replaced by a phandle at compile
1175time), export of reserve map address to the asm file, ability to
1176specify reserve map content at compile time, etc...
1177
1178We may provide a .h include file with common definitions of that
1179proves useful for some properties (like building PCI properties or
1180interrupt maps) though it may be better to add a notion of struct
1181definitions to the compiler...

1184V - Recommendations for a bootloader
1185====================================
1186
1187
1188Here are some various ideas/recommendations that have been proposed
1189while all this has been defined and implemented.
1190
1191 - The bootloader may want to be able to use the device-tree itself
1192 and may want to manipulate it (to add/edit some properties,
1193 like physical memory size or kernel arguments). At this point, 2
1194 choices can be made. Either the bootloader works directly on the
1195 flattened format, or the bootloader has its own internal tree
1196 representation with pointers (similar to the kernel one) and
1197 re-flattens the tree when booting the kernel. The former is a bit
1198 more difficult to edit/modify, the later requires probably a bit
1199 more code to handle the tree structure. Note that the structure
1200 format has been designed so it's relatively easy to "insert"
1201 properties or nodes or delete them by just memmoving things
1202 around. It contains no internal offsets or pointers for this
1203 purpose.
1204
Matt LaPlanted6bc8ac2006-10-03 22:54:15 +02001205 - An example of code for iterating nodes & retrieving properties
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001206 directly from the flattened tree format can be found in the kernel
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001207 file drivers/of/fdt.c. Look at the of_scan_flat_dt() function,
Matt LaPlanted6bc8ac2006-10-03 22:54:15 +02001208 its usage in early_init_devtree(), and the corresponding various
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001209 early_init_dt_scan_*() callbacks. That code can be re-used in a
1210 GPL bootloader, and as the author of that code, I would be happy
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +11001211 to discuss possible free licensing to any vendor who wishes to
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001212 integrate all or part of this code into a non-GPL bootloader.

1217VI - System-on-a-chip devices and nodes
1218=======================================
1219
1220Many companies are now starting to develop system-on-a-chip
Domen Puncer5dd60162007-03-02 21:44:45 +11001221processors, where the processor core (CPU) and many peripheral devices
David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001222exist on a single piece of silicon. For these SOCs, an SOC node
1223should be used that defines child nodes for the devices that make
1224up the SOC. While platforms are not required to use this model in
1225order to boot the kernel, it is highly encouraged that all SOC
1226implementations define as complete a flat-device-tree as possible to
1227describe the devices on the SOC. This will allow for the
1228genericization of much of the kernel code.
1229
1230
12311) Defining child nodes of an SOC
1232---------------------------------
1233
1234Each device that is part of an SOC may have its own node entry inside
1235the SOC node. For each device that is included in the SOC, the unit
1236address property represents the address offset for this device's
1237memory-mapped registers in the parent's address space. The parent's
1238address space is defined by the "ranges" property in the top-level soc
1239node. The "reg" property for each node that exists directly under the
1240SOC node should contain the address mapping from the child address space
1241to the parent SOC address space and the size of the device's
1242memory-mapped register file.
1243
1244For many devices that may exist inside an SOC, there are predefined
1245specifications for the format of the device tree node. All SOC child
1246nodes should follow these specifications, except where noted in this
1247document.
1248
1249See appendix A for an example partial SOC node definition for the
1250MPC8540.

David Gibsonc125a182006-02-01 03:05:22 -08001254----------------------------------------------------------
1255
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001256Currently, there are many devices on SoCs that do not have a standard
1257representation defined as part of the Open Firmware specifications,
1258mainly because the boards that contain these SoCs are not currently
1259booted using Open Firmware. Binding documentation for new devices
1260should be added to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings directory.
1261That directory will expand as device tree support is added to more and
1262more SoCs.

Kumar Galab053dc52009-06-19 08:31:05 -05001265VII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
Stuart Yoder27565902007-03-02 13:42:33 -06001266===================================================
1267
Grant Likelycf4e5c62011-01-31 00:12:26 -07001268The device tree represents the buses and devices of a hardware
Stuart Yoder27565902007-03-02 13:42:33 -06001269system in a form similar to the physical bus topology of the
1270hardware.
1271
1272In addition, a logical 'interrupt tree' exists which represents the
1273hierarchy and routing of interrupts in the hardware.
1274
1275The interrupt tree model is fully described in the
1276document "Open Firmware Recommended Practice: Interrupt
1277Mapping Version 0.9". The document is available at:
Christian Kujau242260f2013-02-21 16:43:05 -08001278<http://www.openfirmware.org/ofwg/practice/>
Stuart Yoder27565902007-03-02 13:42:33 -06001279
12801) interrupts property
1281----------------------
1282
1283Devices that generate interrupts to a single interrupt controller
1284should use the conventional OF representation described in the
1285OF interrupt mapping documentation.
1286
1287Each device which generates interrupts must have an 'interrupt'
1288property. The interrupt property value is an arbitrary number of
1289of 'interrupt specifier' values which describe the interrupt or
1290interrupts for the device.
1291
1292The encoding of an interrupt specifier is determined by the
1293interrupt domain in which the device is located in the
1294interrupt tree. The root of an interrupt domain specifies in
1295its #interrupt-cells property the number of 32-bit cells
1296required to encode an interrupt specifier. See the OF interrupt
1297mapping documentation for a detailed description of domains.
1298
1299For example, the binding for the OpenPIC interrupt controller
1300specifies an #interrupt-cells value of 2 to encode the interrupt
1301number and level/sense information. All interrupt children in an
1302OpenPIC interrupt domain use 2 cells per interrupt in their interrupts
1303property.
1304
1305The PCI bus binding specifies a #interrupt-cell value of 1 to encode
1306which interrupt pin (INTA,INTB,INTC,INTD) is used.
1307
13082) interrupt-parent property
1309----------------------------
1310
1311The interrupt-parent property is specified to define an explicit
1312link between a device node and its interrupt parent in
1313the interrupt tree. The value of interrupt-parent is the
1314phandle of the parent node.
1315
Francis Galieguea33f3222010-04-23 00:08:02 +02001316If the interrupt-parent property is not defined for a node, its
Stuart Yoder27565902007-03-02 13:42:33 -06001317interrupt parent is assumed to be an ancestor in the node's
1318_device tree_ hierarchy.
1319
13203) OpenPIC Interrupt Controllers
1321--------------------------------
1322
1323OpenPIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
1324interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
1325number. The second cell defines the sense and level
1326information.
1327
1328Sense and level information should be encoded as follows:
1329
1330 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
1331 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled
1332 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled
1333 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
1334
13354) ISA Interrupt Controllers
1336----------------------------
1337
1338ISA PIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
1339interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
1340number. The second cell defines the sense and level
1341information.
1342
1343ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC
1344encodings listed below:
1345
1346 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled
1347 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled
1348 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
1349 3 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
1350
Kumar Galab053dc52009-06-19 08:31:05 -05001351VIII - Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property)
Scott Wood2dff4172008-07-11 17:31:15 -05001352===================================================================
1353
1354Devices on SOCs often have mechanisms for placing devices into low-power
1355states that are decoupled from the devices' own register blocks. Sometimes,
1356this information is more complicated than a cell-index property can
1357reasonably describe. Thus, each device controlled in such a manner
1358may contain a "sleep" property which describes these connections.
1359
1360The sleep property consists of one or more sleep resources, each of
1361which consists of a phandle to a sleep controller, followed by a
1362controller-specific sleep specifier of zero or more cells.
1363
1364The semantics of what type of low power modes are possible are defined
1365by the sleep controller. Some examples of the types of low power modes
1366that may be supported are:
1367
1368 - Dynamic: The device may be disabled or enabled at any time.
1369 - System Suspend: The device may request to be disabled or remain
1370 awake during system suspend, but will not be disabled until then.
1371 - Permanent: The device is disabled permanently (until the next hard
1372 reset).
1373
1374Some devices may share a clock domain with each other, such that they should
1375only be suspended when none of the devices are in use. Where reasonable,
1376such nodes should be placed on a virtual bus, where the bus has the sleep
1377property. If the clock domain is shared among devices that cannot be
1378reasonably grouped in this manner, then create a virtual sleep controller
1379(similar to an interrupt nexus, except that defining a standardized
1380sleep-map should wait until its necessity is demonstrated).
1381
Santosh Shilimkar0244f8f2014-06-22 15:40:00 -04001382IX - Specifying dma bus information
1383
1384Some devices may have DMA memory range shifted relatively to the beginning of
1385RAM, or even placed outside of kernel RAM. For example, the Keystone 2 SoC
1386worked in LPAE mode with 4G memory has:
1387- RAM range: [0x8 0000 0000, 0x8 FFFF FFFF]
1388- DMA range: [ 0x8000 0000, 0xFFFF FFFF]
1389and DMA range is aliased into first 2G of RAM in HW.
1390
1391In such cases, DMA addresses translation should be performed between CPU phys
1392and DMA addresses. The "dma-ranges" property is intended to be used
1393for describing the configuration of such system in DT.
1394
1395In addition, each DMA master device on the DMA bus may or may not support
1396coherent DMA operations. The "dma-coherent" property is intended to be used
1397for identifying devices supported coherent DMA operations in DT.
1398
1399* DMA Bus master
1400Optional property:
1401- dma-ranges: <prop-encoded-array> encoded as arbitrary number of triplets of
1402 (child-bus-address, parent-bus-address, length). Each triplet specified
1403 describes a contiguous DMA address range.
1404 The dma-ranges property is used to describe the direct memory access (DMA)
1405 structure of a memory-mapped bus whose device tree parent can be accessed
1406 from DMA operations originating from the bus. It provides a means of
1407 defining a mapping or translation between the physical address space of
1408 the bus and the physical address space of the parent of the bus.
1409 (for more information see ePAPR specification)
1410
1411* DMA Bus child
1412Optional property:
1413- dma-ranges: <empty> value. if present - It means that DMA addresses
1414 translation has to be enabled for this device.
1415- dma-coherent: Present if dma operations are coherent
1416
1417Example:
1418soc {
1419 compatible = "ti,keystone","simple-bus";
1420 ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc0000000>;
1421 dma-ranges = <0x80000000 0x8 0x00000000 0x80000000>;
1422
1423 [...]

1426 compatible = "ti,keystone-dwc3";
