I found this one whilst testing versatile-express with a -rc kernel and was considering if this is the correct way to fix this.

[PATCH] atags_to_fdt: take into account root's #size and #cells

PATCH 1/1 atags_to_fdt: take into account root's #size and #cells

When creating entries for /memory, the root #size and #cells must be taken into account otherwise the node will not be recongnized when the OF code scans the nodes.

On some systems, the default is now to be 2 for each of #size and #cells which means that appending a kernrel and having it update from ATAGS does not work properly.

When creating entries for /memory, the root #size and #cells must be taken into account otherwise the node will not be recongnized when the OF code scans the nodes.

On some systems, the default is now to be 2 for each of #size and #cells which means that appending a kernrel and having it update from ATAGS does not work properly.

Isn't this the same
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=faefd550c45d8d314e8f260f21565320355c947f
which is already in linux-next?

Best regards,

Thomas

Ah, it is almost the same although it only takes into account the #size-cells but not the number of them.

Hi Ben,

There is already a fix for it which is applied in Russell King's git tree, see
