[PATCH v2 1/4] dt-bindings: firmware: qcom,scm: Add minidump SRAM property
From: Mukesh Ojha
Date: Tue May 19 2026 - 13:17:00 EST
On most Qualcomm SoCs where minidump is supported, a word in always-on
SRAM is shared between the kernel and boot firmware. Before DDR is
initialised on the warm reset following a crash, firmware reads this
word to decide if minidump is enabled and collect a minidump and where
to deliver it (USB upload to a host, or save to local storage).
Add a 'sram' property to the SCM binding to describe a region in
always-on SRAM where the minidump download destination value could be
written. Boot firmware reads it before DDR is initialised on a warm
reset to decide where to store the minidump either to host PC or to
on device storage.
