6.4.4. U-Boot environment deviceΒΆ

This driver provides a unified device exposing U-Boot environment varaible data, sans the low-level parts. Resulting device is intended to be used with corresponding filesystem driver to expose environment data as a filesystem.

Required properties:

  • compatible: should be barebox,uboot-environment

  • device-path: phandle of the partition the device environment is on (single partiton configuration)

  • device-path-0 and device-path-1: phandle of the partition the environment is on (redundant configuration)

Example:

environment {
      compatible = "barebox,uboot-environment";
      device-path-0 = &uboot_env_0;
      device-path-1 = &uboot_env_1;
};

&usdhc4 {
      partitions {
              compatible = "fixed-partitions";
              #address-cells = <1>;
              #size-cells = <1>;

              uboot_env_0: partition@c0000 {
                      label = "uboot-environment-0";
                      reg = <0xc0000 0x4000>;
              };

              uboot_env_1: partition@cc800 {
                      label = "uboot-environment-1";
                      reg = <0xcc800 0x4000>;
              };
      };
};
