Required properties: + - #address-cells: Must be 1. + - #size-cells: Must be 0. +A CPU sub-node is also required for at least CPU 0. Required properties: + - device_type: Must be "cpu". + - compatible: Must be "mips,m14Kc". + - reg: Must be <0>. + - clocks: phandle to ext clock for fixed-clock received by MIPS core. + +Example: + + compatible = "img,xilfpga","digilent,nexys4ddr"; + cpus { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <0>; + + cpu0: cpu@0 { + device_type = "cpu"; + compatible = "mips,m14Kc"; + reg = <0>; + clocks = <&ext>; + }; + }; + + ext: ext { + compatible = "fixed-clock"; + #clock-cells = <0>; + clock-frequency = <50000000>; + }; + +Boot protocol: +-------------- + +The BootRAM is a writeable "RAM" in FPGA at 0x1FC0_0000. +This is for easy reprogrammibility via JTAG. + +The BootRAM initializes the cache and the axi_uart peripheral. + +DDR initialization is already handled by a HW IP block. + +When the example project bitstream is loaded, the cpu_reset button +needs to be pressed. + +The bootram initializes the cache and axi_uart. +Then outputs MIPSFPGA\n\r on the serial port on the Nexys4DDR board. + +At this point, the board is ready to load the Linux kernel +vmlinux file via JTAG. |
