13description: |+
14  A simple frame-buffer describes a frame-buffer setup by firmware or
15  the bootloader, with the assumption that the display hardware has
16  already been set up to scan out from the memory pointed to by the
17  reg property.
18
19  Since simplefb nodes represent runtime information they must be
20  sub-nodes of the chosen node (*). Simplefb nodes must be named
21  framebuffer@<address>.
22
23  If the devicetree contains nodes for the display hardware used by a
24  simplefb, then the simplefb node must contain a property called
25  display, which contains a phandle pointing to the primary display
26  hw node, so that the OS knows which simplefb to disable when handing
27  over control to a driver for the real hardware. The bindings for the
28  hw nodes must specify which node is considered the primary node.
29
30  It is advised to add display# aliases to help the OS determine how
31  to number things. If display# aliases are used, then if the simplefb
32  node contains a display property then the /aliases/display# path
33  must point to the display hw node the display property points to,
34  otherwise it must point directly to the simplefb node.
35
36  If a simplefb node represents the preferred console for user
37  interaction, then the chosen node stdout-path property should point
38  to it, or to the primary display hw node, as with display#
39  aliases. If display aliases are used then it should be set to the
40  alias instead.
41
42  It is advised that devicetree files contain pre-filled, disabled
43  framebuffer nodes, so that the firmware only needs to update the
44  mode information and enable them. This way if e.g. later on support
45  for more display clocks get added, the simplefb nodes will already
46  contain this info and the firmware does not need to be updated.
47
48  If pre-filled framebuffer nodes are used, the firmware may need
49  extra information to find the right node. In that case an extra
50  platform specific compatible and platform specific properties should
51  be used and documented.
