==================
C-SKY CPU Bindings
==================
The device tree allows to describe the layout of CPUs in a system through
the "cpus" node, which in turn contains a number of subnodes (ie "cpu")
defining properties for every cpu.
Only SMP system need to care about the cpus node and single processor
needn't define cpus node at all.
=====================================
cpus and cpu node bindings definition
=====================================
- cpus node
Description: Container of cpu nodes
The node name must be "cpus".
A cpus node must define the following properties:
- #address-cells
Usage: required
Value type: <u32>
Definition: must be set to 1
- #size-cells
Usage: required
Value type: <u32>
Definition: must be set to 0
- cpu node
Description: Describes one of SMP cores
PROPERTIES
- device_type
Usage: required
Value type: <string>
Definition: must be "cpu"
- reg
Usage: required
Value type: <u32>
Definition: CPU index
- compatible:
Usage: required
Value type: <string>
Definition: must contain "csky", eg:
"csky,610"
"csky,807"
"csky,810"
"csky,860"
Example:
--------
cpus {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
cpu@0 {
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <0>;
status = "ok";
};
cpu@1 {
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <1>;
status = "ok";
};
};
