Hi,
I just received an email from Power.org referencing this document:
http://www.power.org/resources/downloads/Power_ePAPR_APPROVED_v1.0.pdf
"The ePAPR is loosely related to the IEEE 1275 Open Firmware standard—IEEE Standard for Boot (Initialization Configuration) Firmware: Core Requirements and Practices."
It looks to have a nice description of device trees.
I see lots of familiar U-Boot developer names in the acknowledgments, so I imagine U-Boot is probably compliant with this specification already.
Looks like a useful document to reference somewhere on the Denx documentation area.
Cheers, Dave
Hi Dave,
Thanks for the pointer. I have a collection of useful IEEE-1275 / FDT pointers on my custodian page and added your reference to the collection: http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/U-Boot/UBootFdtInfo#Background_Information_on_Flatte
Some of these references may deserve a higher visibility location.
Best regards, gvb
