This patch adds new Exynos5433 dtsi to support 64-bit Exynos5433 SoC based on Octal core CPUs (quad Cortex-A57 and quad Cortex-A53). And Exynos5433 supports PSCI (Power State Coordination Interface) v0.1. This patch includes following dt node to support Exynos5433 SoC: 1. Octa core for big.LITTLE architecture - Cortex-A53 LITTLE Quad-core - Cortex-A57 big Quad-core - Support PSCI v0.1Should we try to come up with a way to better share parts of this with the exynos5 dtsi files you already have in arm32? I suspect that there is a significant overlap.Currently, 32-bit Exynos5 SoC (which is included in arch/arm/boot/dts) didn't support the Cortex-A53/A57 and PSCI. The 32-bit Exynos5 SoC support the Coretex-A7 or A15 and big.LITTLE Exynos5 SoC use the MCPM (Multi-Cluster PM) driver for secondary cpu on/off instead of PSCI.
Yes, I understand that. What I meant is sharing the nodes that are identical between e.g. all exynos54xx by using a common .dtsi file that can be included by 5420, 5433 and 5440. Arnd
