You're aware that u-boot parsed this before linux did, right? > Using device tree just invites code that is not used > on your target. I can write my own flattened device tree parser if necessary. It's a tree in an array. And having a general posix API invites code that is not used on your target: making a powerful general purpose mechanism doesn't mean I need load code I'm not using. Common data format: good thing. Device tree format is ugly and incoherent but so's the problem space it's dealing with and it means I don't have to do it. Rob -- GNU/Linux isn't: Linux=GPLv2, GNU=GPLv3+, they can't share code. Either it's "mere aggregation", or a license violation.
