That requires flash partitioning. + + Flash space layout of TP-Link devices is stored on flash itself using + a custom ASCII-based format. That format was first found in TP-Link + devices with a custom SafeLoader bootloader. Later it was adapted to + CFE and U-Boot bootloaders. + + Partitions specified in partitions table cover whole flash space. Some + contain static data that shouldn't get modified (device's MAC or WiFi + calibration data). Others are semi-static (like kernel). Finally some + partitions contain fully changeable content (like rootfs). + + This binding describes partitioning method and defines offset of ASCII + based partitions table. That offset is picked at manufacturing process + and doesn't change. + +maintainers: + - Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl> + +properties: + compatible: + const: tplink,safeloader-partitions + + partitions-table-offset: + description: Flash offset of partitions table + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 + +patternProperties: + "^partition-.*$": + $ref: partition.yaml# + +required: + - partitions-table-offset + +additionalProperties: false + +examples: + - | + partitions { + compatible = "tplink,safeloader-partitions"; + partitions-table-offset = <0x100000>; + + partition-file-system { + linux,rootfs; + }; + }; |
