- j) Flash chip nodes
+ j) CFI or JEDEC memory-mapped NOR flash
Flash chips (Memory Technology Devices) are often used for solid state
file systems on embedded devices.
- Required properties:
+ - compatible : should contain the specific model of flash chip(s)
+ used, if known, followed by either "cfi-flash" or "jedec-flash"
+ - reg : Address range of the flash chip
+ - bank-width : Width (in bytes) of the flash bank. Equal to the
+ device width times the number of interleaved chips.
+ - device-width : (optional) Width of a single flash chip. If
+ omitted, assumed to be equal to 'bank-width'.
+ - #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the flash 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).
+
+ In addition to the information on the flash bank itself, the
+ device tree may optionally contain additional information
+ describing partitions of the flash address space. This can be
+ used on platforms which have strong conventions about which
+ portions of the flash are used for what purposes, but which don't
+ use an on-flash partition table such as RedBoot.
+
+ Each partition is represented as a sub-node of the flash device.
+ Each node's name represents the name of the corresponding
+ partition of the flash device.
+
+ Flash partitions
+ - reg : The partition's offset and size within the flash bank.
+ - label : (optional) The label / name for this flash partition.
+ If omitted, the label is taken from the node name (excluding
+ the unit address).
+ - read-only : (optional) This parameter, if present, is a hint to
+ Linux that this flash partition should only be mounted
+ read-only. This is usually used for flash partitions
+ containing early-boot firmware images or data which should not
+ be clobbered.
- - device_type : has to be "rom"
- - compatible : Should specify what this flash device is compatible with.
- Currently, this is most likely to be "direct-mapped" (which
- corresponds to the MTD physmap mapping driver).
- - reg : Offset and length of the register set (or memory mapping) for
- the device.
- - bank-width : Width of the flash data bus in bytes. Required
- for the NOR flashes (compatible == "direct-mapped" and others) ONLY.
-
- Recommended properties :
-
- - partitions : Several pairs of 32-bit values where the first value is
- partition's offset from the start of the device and the second one is
- partition size in bytes with LSB used to signify a read only
- partition (so, the partition size should always be an even number).
- - partition-names : The list of concatenated zero terminated strings
- representing the partition names.
- - probe-type : The type of probe which should be done for the chip
- (JEDEC vs CFI actually). Valid ONLY for NOR flashes.
-
- Example:

- flash@ff000000 {
- device_type = "rom";
