The binding should describe the h/w block or firmware interface not the feature you want to implement. Are there other functions provided by the MC firmware? Rob

The console is basically a log buffer of the MC firmware, and is found at a known offset compared to the firmware image's runtime base address. > The binding should describe the h/w block or firmware interface not the feature you want to > implement. Are there other functions provided by the MC firmware? The MC firmware manages all hardware resources related to networking or any other accelerators. Any interaction with the firmware is made through commands put in memory mapped regions. The fsl-mc bus driver is the one that already manages this interaction with the MC. Ioana > > Rob
