4 The chosen node does not represent a real device, but serves as a place
5 for passing data between firmware and the operating system, like boot
6 arguments. Data in the chosen node does not represent the hardware.
12 Device trees may specify the device to be used for boot console output
13 with a stdout-path property under /chosen, as described in ePAPR, e.g.
17 stdout-path = "/serial@f00:115200";
21 compatible = "vendor,some-uart";
26 If the character ":" is present in the value, this terminates the path.
27 The meaning of any characters following the ":" is device-specific, and
28 must be specified in the relevant binding documentation.
30 For UART devices, the preferred binding is a string in the form:
32 <baud>{<parity>{<bits>{<flow>}}}
36 baud - baud rate in decimal
37 parity - 'n' (none), 'o', (odd) or 'e' (even)
38 bits - number of data bits
41 For example: 115200n8r
43 Implementation note: Linux will look for the property "linux,stdout-path" or
44 on PowerPC "stdout" if "stdout-path" is not found. However, the
45 "linux,stdout-path" and "stdout" properties are deprecated. New platforms
46 should only use the "stdout-path" property.
