[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 03/71] dm: core: Add livetree definitions

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Wed May 10 14:20:42 UTC 2017


Add a Kconfig option to enable a live device tree, built at run time from
the flat tree. Also add structure definitions and a root node.

+	  Normally U-Boot uses a flat device tree which saves space and
+	  avoids the need to unpack the tree before use. However a flat
+	  tree does not support modifcation from within U-Boot since it
+	  can invalidate driver-model device tree offsets. This option
+	  enables a live tree which is available after relocation,
+	  and can be adjusted as needed.
