From 5a61ef74f269f2573f48fa53607a8911216c3326 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Piggin Date: Tue, 9 May 2017 13:16:52 +1000 Subject: powerpc/64s: Support new device tree binding for discovering CPU features The ibm,powerpc-cpu-features device tree binding describes CPU features with ASCII names and extensible compatibility, privilege, and enablement metadata that allows improved flexibility and compatibility with new hardware. The interface is described in detail in ibm,powerpc-cpu-features.txt in this patch. Currently this code is not enabled by default, and there are no released firmwares that provide the binding.
