Add support for Fe-Pi audio sound card. (#1867)
[mirror_ubuntu-zesty-kernel.git] / arch / arm / boot / dts / overlays / README
1 Introduction
2 ============
3
4 This directory contains Device Tree overlays. Device Tree makes it possible
5 to support many hardware configurations with a single kernel and without the
6 need to explicitly load or blacklist kernel modules. Note that this isn't a
7 "pure" Device Tree configuration (c.f. MACH_BCM2835) - some on-board devices
8 are still configured by the board support code, but the intention is to
9 eventually reach that goal.
10
11 On Raspberry Pi, Device Tree usage is controlled from /boot/config.txt. By
12 default, the Raspberry Pi kernel boots with device tree enabled. You can
13 completely disable DT usage (for now) by adding:
14
15 device_tree=
16
17 to your config.txt, which should cause your Pi to revert to the old way of
18 doing things after a reboot.
19
20 In /boot you will find a .dtb for each base platform. This describes the
21 hardware that is part of the Raspberry Pi board. The loader (start.elf and its
22 siblings) selects the .dtb file appropriate for the platform by name, and reads
23 it into memory. At this point, all of the optional interfaces (i2c, i2s, spi)
24 are disabled, but they can be enabled using Device Tree parameters:
25
26 dtparam=i2c=on,i2s=on,spi=on
27
28 However, this shouldn't be necessary in many use cases because loading an
29 overlay that requires one of those interfaces will cause it to be enabled
30 automatically, and it is advisable to only enable interfaces if they are
31 needed.
32
33 Configuring additional, optional hardware is done using Device Tree overlays
34 (see below).
35
36 raspi-config
37 ============
38
39 The Advanced Options section of the raspi-config utility can enable and disable
40 Device Tree use, as well as toggling the I2C and SPI interfaces. Note that it
41 is possible to both enable an interface and blacklist the driver, if for some
42 reason you should want to defer the loading.
43
44 Modules
45 =======
46
47 As well as describing the hardware, Device Tree also gives enough information
48 to allow suitable driver modules to be located and loaded, with the corollary
49 that unneeded modules are not loaded. As a result it should be possible to
50 remove lines from /etc/modules, and /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf can
51 have its contents deleted (or commented out).
52
53 Using Overlays
54 ==============
55
56 Overlays are loaded using the "dtoverlay" directive. As an example, consider
57 the popular lirc-rpi module, the Linux Infrared Remote Control driver. In the
58 pre-DT world this would be loaded from /etc/modules, with an explicit
59 "modprobe lirc-rpi" command, or programmatically by lircd. With DT enabled,
60 this becomes a line in config.txt:
61
62 dtoverlay=lirc-rpi
63
64 This causes the file /boot/overlays/lirc-rpi.dtbo to be loaded. By
65 default it will use GPIOs 17 (out) and 18 (in), but this can be modified using
66 DT parameters:
67
68 dtoverlay=lirc-rpi,gpio_out_pin=17,gpio_in_pin=13
69
70 Parameters always have default values, although in some cases (e.g. "w1-gpio")
71 it is necessary to provided multiple overlays in order to get the desired
72 behaviour. See the list of overlays below for a description of the parameters
73 and their defaults.

81
82 Name: <The base DTB>
83 Info: Configures the base Raspberry Pi hardware
84 Load: <loaded automatically>
85 Params:
86 audio Set to "on" to enable the onboard ALSA audio
87 interface (default "off")
88
89 i2c_arm Set to "on" to enable the ARM's i2c interface
90 (default "off")
91
92 i2c_vc Set to "on" to enable the i2c interface
93 usually reserved for the VideoCore processor
94 (default "off")
95
96 i2c An alias for i2c_arm

101 i2c_vc_baudrate Set the baudrate of the VideoCore i2c interface
102 (default "100000")
103
104 i2c_baudrate An alias for i2c_arm_baudrate
105
106 i2s Set to "on" to enable the i2s interface
107 (default "off")
108
109 spi Set to "on" to enable the spi interfaces
110 (default "off")
111
112 random Set to "on" to enable the hardware random
113 number generator (default "on")
114
115 sd_overclock Clock (in MHz) to use when the MMC framework
116 requests 50MHz
117
118 sd_force_pio Disable DMA support for SD driver (default off)
119
120 sd_pio_limit Number of blocks above which to use DMA for
121 SD card (default 1)
122
123 sd_debug Enable debug output from SD driver (default off)
124
125 uart0 Set to "off" to disable uart0 (default "on")
126
127 uart1 Set to "on" or "off" to enable or disable uart1
128 (default varies)
129
130 watchdog Set to "on" to enable the hardware watchdog
131 (default "off")
132
133 act_led_trigger Choose which activity the LED tracks.
134 Use "heartbeat" for a nice load indicator.
135 (default "mmc")
136
137 act_led_activelow Set to "on" to invert the sense of the LED
138 (default "off")
139 N.B. For Pi3 see pi3-act-led overlay.
140
141 act_led_gpio Set which GPIO to use for the activity LED
142 (in case you want to connect it to an external
143 device)
144 (default "16" on a non-Plus board, "47" on a
145 Plus or Pi 2)
146 N.B. For Pi3 see pi3-act-led overlay.
147
148 pwr_led_trigger
149 pwr_led_activelow
150 pwr_led_gpio
151 As for act_led_*, but using the PWR LED.
152 Not available on Model A/B boards.
153
154 N.B. It is recommended to only enable those interfaces that are needed.
155 Leaving all interfaces enabled can lead to unwanted behaviour (i2c_vc
156 interfering with Pi Camera, I2S and SPI hogging GPIO pins, etc.)
157 Note also that i2c, i2c_arm and i2c_vc are aliases for the physical
158 interfaces i2c0 and i2c1. Use of the numeric variants is still possible
159 but deprecated because the ARM/VC assignments differ between board
160 revisions. The same board-specific mapping applies to i2c_baudrate,
161 and the other i2c baudrate parameters.

819 Info: Pi3 uses a GPIO expander to drive the LEDs which can only be accessed
820 from the VPU. There is a special driver for this with a separate DT
821 node, which has the unfortunate consequence of breaking the
822 act_led_gpio and act_led_activelow dtparams.
823 This overlay changes the GPIO controller back to the standard one and
824 restores the dtparams.

852 usable baudrate.
853 N.B. It is also necessary to edit /lib/systemd/system/hciuart.service
854 and replace ttyAMA0 with ttyS0, unless you have a system with udev rules
855 that create /dev/serial0 and /dev/serial1, in which case use
856 /dev/serial1 instead because it will always be correct. Furthermore,
857 you must also set core_freq=250 in config.txt or the miniuart will not
858 work.

1093 the default, so it disables the other (mmc) interface - this will kill
1094 WiFi on a Pi3. If this isn't what you want, either use the sdtweak
1095 overlay or the new sd_* dtparams of the base DTBs.

1410 Troubleshooting
1411 ===============
1412
1413 If you are experiencing problems that you think are DT-related, enable DT
1414 diagnostic output by adding this to /boot/config.txt:
1415
1416 dtdebug=on
1417
1418 and rebooting. Then run:
1419
1420 sudo vcdbg log msg
1421
1422 and look for relevant messages.
