| CFI or JEDEC memory-mapped NOR flash, MTD-RAM (NVRAM...) |
| |
| Flash chips (Memory Technology Devices) are often used for solid state |
| file systems on embedded devices. |
| |
| - compatible : should contain the specific model of mtd chip(s) |
| used, if known, followed by either "cfi-flash", "jedec-flash" |
| or "mtd-ram". |
| - reg : Address range(s) of the mtd chip(s) |
| It's possible to (optionally) define multiple "reg" tuples so that |
| non-identical chips can be described in one node. |
| - bank-width : Width (in bytes) of the bank. Equal to the |
| device width times the number of interleaved chips. |
| - device-width : (optional) Width of a single mtd chip. If |
| omitted, assumed to be equal to 'bank-width'. |
| - #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the device has |
| sub-nodes representing partitions (see below). In this case |
| both #address-cells and #size-cells must be equal to 1. |
| |
| For JEDEC compatible devices, the following additional properties |
| are defined: |
| |
| - vendor-id : Contains the flash chip's vendor id (1 byte). |
| - device-id : Contains the flash chip's device id (1 byte). |
| |
| The device tree may optionally contain sub-nodes describing partitions of the |
| address space. See partition.txt for more detail. |

| Example: |
| |
| flash@ff000000 { |
| compatible = "amd,am29lv128ml", "cfi-flash"; |
| reg = <ff000000 01000000>; |
| bank-width = <4>; |
| device-width = <1>; |
| #address-cells = <1>; |
| #size-cells = <1>; |
| fs@0 { |
| label = "fs"; |
| reg = <0 f80000>; |
| }; |
| firmware@f80000 { |
| label ="firmware"; |
| reg = <f80000 80000>; |
| read-only; |
| }; |
| }; |
| |
| Here an example with multiple "reg" tuples: |
| |
| flash@f0000000,0 { |
| #address-cells = <1>; |
| #size-cells = <1>; |
| compatible = "intel,PC48F4400P0VB", "cfi-flash"; |
| reg = <0 0x00000000 0x02000000 |
| 0 0x02000000 0x02000000>; |
| bank-width = <2>; |
| partition@0 { |
| label = "test-part1"; |
| reg = <0 0x04000000>; |
| }; |
| }; |
| |
| An example using SRAM: |
| |
| sram@2,0 { |
| compatible = "samsung,k6f1616u6a", "mtd-ram"; |
| reg = <2 0 0x00200000>; |
| bank-width = <2>; |
| }; |
