From f7a4b3438c6f5e95a6ae814b39bf6623a007dec8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Marangi Date: Thu, 3 Oct 2024 00:11:46 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: mmc: Document support for partition table in mmc-card Document support for defining a partition table in the mmc-card node. This is needed if the eMMC doesn't have a partition table written and the bootloader of the device load data by using absolute offset of the block device. This is common on embedded device that have eMMC installed to save space and have non removable block devices. If an OF partition table is detected, any partition table written in the eMMC will be ignored and won't be parsed. eMMC provide a generic disk for user data and if supported (JEDEC 4.4+) also provide two additional disk ("boot1" and "boot2") for special usage of boot operation where normally is stored the bootloader or boot info. New JEDEC version also supports up to 4 GP partition for other usage called "gp1", "gp2", "gp3", "gp4".
