Raspberry Pi: Access Firmware-FDT

Raspberry Pi: Access Firmware-FDT

[Moritz Augsburger]

Hi,

on the RPi, the firmware binary blob assembles and enriches the dtb/dtbo 
files, puts the created fdt into memory, storing the location in r2.

I found a discussion proposing a patch 
(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/barebox/2018-June/033460.html) 
that was never included.

Is there currently any way to boot the kernel with the firmware created 
fdt?

Moritz

BTW with "See other mail I just sent you" in this thread I meant:

No, there's currently no way to do said. We would need a fresh version
of the patch you referenced.
