Broadcom BCM963XX ImageTag Partition Container
==============================================
Some Broadcom BCM63XX SoC based devices contain additional, non discoverable
partitions or non standard bootloader partition sizes. For these a mixed layout
needs to be used with an explicit firmware partition.
The BCM963XX ImageTag is a simple firmware header describing the offsets and
sizes of the rootfs and kernel parts contained in the firmware.
Required properties:
- compatible : must be "brcm,bcm963xx-imagetag"
Example:
flash@1e000000 {
compatible = "cfi-flash";
reg = <0x1e000000 0x2000000>;
bank-width = <2>;
partitions {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
cfe@0 {
reg = <0x0 0x10000>;
read-only;
};
firmware@10000 {
reg = <0x10000 0x7d0000>;
compatible = "brcm,bcm963xx-imagetag";
};
caldata@7e0000 {
reg = <0x7e0000 0x10000>;
read-only;
};
nvram@7f0000 {
reg = <0x7f0000 0x10000>;
};
};
};
