It may also help to check if the "linux,atags" property already exists and not create it otherwise. That way we can put it into the n900 dts file and have it updated by the compat code, but not expose the atags on other platforms unless they opt in.

I think it is not possible right now, but correct me if I'm wrong...

Using "linux,atags" sounds good to me. And yes checking it with getprop before doing setprop makes sense. > > Maybe what would help: Is there a way to tell decompressor/kernel to not > > touch atag memory and then after kernel/board-code starts it save copy > > of atags?

Agreed, let's keep the changes to minimum. Looks like with the comments posted all the pending four patches from Pali become quite a minimal set of three patches if we keep the rev string as hex.

This patch stores existing ATAG structure into DT /atags field and so previous patch exports it for userspace via /proc/atags. Signed-off-by: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@gmail.com> --- arch/arm/boot/compressed/atags_to_fdt.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
