1.基本数据格式

/ {
    node1 {
        a-string-property = "A string";
        a-string-list-property = "first string", "second string";
        // hex is implied in byte arrays. no '0x' prefix is required
        a-byte-data-property = [01 23 34 56];
        child-node1 {
            first-child-property;
            second-child-property = <1>;
            a-string-property = "Hello, world";
        };
        child-node2 {
        };
    };
    node2 {
        an-empty-property;
        a-cell-property = <1 2 3 4>; /* each number (cell) is a uint32 */
        child-node1 {
        };
    };
};

This tree is obviously pretty useless because it doesn't describe anything, but it does show the structure of nodes and properties. There is:
 
 
a single root node: "/"
a couple of child nodes: "node1" and "node2"
a couple of children for node1: "child-node1" and "child-node2"
a bunch of properties scattered through the tree.
Properties are simple key-value pairs where the value can either be empty or contain an arbitrary byte stream. While data types are not encoded into the data structure, there are a few fundamental data representations that can be expressed in a device tree source file.
 
 
Text strings (null terminated) are represented with double quotes:
   
   
string-property = "a string";
'Cells' are 32 bit unsigned integers delimited by angle brackets:
   
   
cell-property = <0xbeef 123 0xabcd1234>;
Binary data is delimited with square brackets:
   
   
binary-property = [0x01 0x23 0x45 0x67];
Data of differing representations can be concatenated together using a comma:
   
   
mixed-property = "a string", [0x01 0x23 0x45 0x67], <0x12345678>;
Commas are also used to create lists of strings:
   
   
string-list = "red fish", "blue fish";
