fdtget: Add documentation
This is missing at present and the fdtget tool is no-longer trivial. Add a little bit of information. This might be useful for distributions which want to provide a man page. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

4 ) fdtget -- Read properties from device tree
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This command can be used to obtain individual values from the device tree in a
|
||||||
|
nicely formatted way. You can specify multiple nodes to display (when using -p)
|
||||||
|
or multiple node/property pairs (when not using -p). For the latter, each
|
||||||
|
property is displayed on its own line, with a space between each cell within
|
||||||
|
the property.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The syntax of the fdtget command is:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
fdtget <options> <dt file> [<node> <property>]...
|
||||||
|
fdtget -p <options> <dt file> [<node> ]...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where options are:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<type> s=string, i=int, u=unsigned, x=hex
|
||||||
|
Optional modifier prefix:
|
||||||
|
hh or b=byte, h=2 byte, l=4 byte (default)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Options: -[t:pld:hV]
|
||||||
|
-t, --type <arg> Type of data
|
||||||
|
-p, --properties List properties for each node
|
||||||
|
-l, --list List subnodes for each node
|
||||||
|
-d, --default <arg> Default value to display when the property is missing
|
||||||
|
-h, --help Print this help and exit
|
||||||
|
-V, --version Print version and exit
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If -t is not provided, fdtget will try to figure out the type, trying to detect
|
||||||
|
strings, string lists and the size of each value in the property. This is
|
||||||
|
similar to how fdtdump works, and uses the same heuristics.
