* ARM CPUs binding description 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. Bindings for CPU nodes follow the ePAPR standard, available from: http://devicetree.org For the ARM architecture every CPU node must contain the following properties: - device_type: must be "cpu" - reg: property matching the CPU MPIDR[23:0] register bits reg[31:24] bits must be set to 0 - compatible: should be one of: "arm,arm1020" "arm,arm1020e" "arm,arm1022" "arm,arm1026" "arm,arm720" "arm,arm740" "arm,arm7tdmi" "arm,arm920" "arm,arm922" "arm,arm925" "arm,arm926" "arm,arm940" "arm,arm946" "arm,arm9tdmi" "arm,cortex-a5" "arm,cortex-a7" "arm,cortex-a8" "arm,cortex-a9" "arm,cortex-a15" "arm,arm1136" "arm,arm1156" "arm,arm1176" "arm,arm11mpcore" "faraday,fa526" "intel,sa110" "intel,sa1100" "marvell,feroceon" "marvell,mohawk" "marvell,xsc3" "marvell,xscale" "qcom,krait" Example: cpus { #size-cells = <0>; #address-cells = <1>; CPU0: cpu@0 { device_type = "cpu"; compatible = "arm,cortex-a15"; reg = <0x0>; }; CPU1: cpu@1 { device_type = "cpu"; compatible = "arm,cortex-a15"; reg = <0x1>; }; CPU2: cpu@100 { device_type = "cpu"; compatible = "arm,cortex-a7"; reg = <0x100>; }; CPU3: cpu@101 { device_type = "cpu"; compatible = "arm,cortex-a7"; reg = <0x101>; }; };
