4 Subject: [PATCH] mtd: parsers: ofpart: limit parsing of deprecated DT syntax
5 MIME-Version: 1.0
6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

9 For backward compatibility ofpart still supports the old syntax like:
10 spi-flash@0 {
11 compatible = "jedec,spi-nor";
12 reg = <0x0>;
13
14 partition@0 {
15 label = "bootloader";
16 reg = <0x0 0x100000>;
17 };
18 };
19 (without "partitions" subnode).
20
21 There is no reason however to support nested partitions without a clear
22 "compatible" string like:
23 partitions {
24 compatible = "fixed-partitions";
25 #address-cells = <1>;
26 #size-cells = <1>;
27
28 partition@0 {
29 label = "bootloader";
30 reg = <0x0 0x100000>;
31
32 partition@0 {
33 label = "config";
34 reg = <0x80000 0x80000>;
35 };
36 };
37 };
38 (we never officially supported or documented that).
39
40 Make sure ofpart doesn't attempt to parse above.
