[PATCH] hw/arm: add versioning to sbsa-ref machine DT


From: Leif Lindholm
Subject: [PATCH] hw/arm: add versioning to sbsa-ref machine DT
Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2022 19:29:34 +0100

The sbsa-ref machine is continuously evolving. Some of the changes we
want to make in the near future, to align with real components (e.g.
the GIC-700), will break compatibility for existing firmware.

Introduce two new properties to the DT generated on machine generation:
- machine-version-major
  To be incremented when a platform change makes the machine
  incompatible with existing firmware.
- machine-version-minor
  To be incremented when functionality is added to the machine
  without causing incompatibility with existing firmware.
  to be reset to 0 when machine-version-major is incremented.

These properties are both introduced with the value 0.
(Hence, a machine where the DT is lacking these nodes is equivalent
to version 0.0.)
