[PATCH 09/11] arm-dt: probe for device-tree enabled platforms

Jeremy Kerr jeremy.kerr at canonical.com
Tue Dec 22 05:54:56 EST 2009


Add a probe_dt pointer to struct machine_desc, which can be populated by
platforms that support discovery via device trees.

At setup_arch time, each compiled-in machine_desc with a dt_probe member
will be probed. If the probe function returns 1, we have a match.
