Create minimal DT to pass required information to Dom0 ---------------------------------------------------------- The minimal DT mainly passes Dom0 bootargs, address and size of initrd (if available), address and size of uefi system table, address and size of uefi memory table, uefi-mmap-desc-size and uefi-mmap-desc-ver. An example of the minimal DT: / { #address-cells = <2>; #size-cells = <1>; chosen { bootargs = "kernel=Image console=hvc0 earlycon=pl011,0x1c090000 root=/dev/vda2 rw rootfstype=ext4 init=/bin/sh acpi=force"; linux,initrd-start = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,initrd-end = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,uefi-system-table = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,uefi-mmap-start = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,uefi-mmap-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,uefi-mmap-desc-size = <0xXXXXXXXX>; linux,uefi-mmap-desc-ver = <0xXXXXXXXX>; }; }; For details loook at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/arm/uefi.txtI would have expect a summary on the discussion we had on the previous thread [1]. Note that "linux,initrd-*" are well defined given that Xen, U-boot and other bootloaders are using them. And IIRC, it's Linux specific. Although, "linux,uefi-*" are not well defined (only used internally by Linux betwen the EFI stub and the kernel) and we expect other OS to use them in the future. So I would prefer to the "linux," dropped for them.
Yes, I think it's good to drop the "linux," too. But if we drop the linux, would it impact the linux kernel booting with UEFI? And why we don't do it to Xen since Xen still uses "linux,"?
