zephyr,retention

Vendor: Zephyr-specific binding

Note

An implementation of a driver matching this compatible is available in subsys/retention/retention.c.

Description

Retention subsystem area, which has a retained memory parent. Example
64-byte area with 2-byte prefix and 1-byte checksum with 61 usable bytes
for user storage:

sram@2003FFC0 {
  compatible = "zephyr,memory-region", "mmio-sram";
  reg = <0x2003FFC0 64>;
  zephyr,memory-region = "RetainedMem";
  status = "okay";

  retainedmem {
    compatible = "zephyr,retained-ram";
    status = "okay";
    #address-cells = <1>;
    #size-cells = <1>;

    retention0: retention@0 {
      compatible = "zephyr,retention";
      status = "okay";
      reg = <0x0 0x40>;
      prefix = [04 fa];
      checksum = <1>;
    };
  };
};

Properties

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name

Details

prefix

uint8-array

An optional magic prefix, which indicates that the data has been set
(applies to the header of the data, reduces the available user data
size).

checksum

int

An optional data verification checksum, which indicates that the data is
valid (appended to the footer of the data, reduces the available user
data size). Value is size in bytes (0 for none, 1 for 8-bit CRC, 2 for
16-bit CRC, 4 for 32-bit CRC). Default is to not use a checksum.
