CONFIG_TILE_SROM: Character-device access via hypervisor to the Tilera SPI ROM

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_TILE_SROM has multiple definitions:

Character-device access via hypervisor to the Tilera SPI ROM found in drivers/char/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_TILE_SROM:

• prompt: Character-device access via hypervisor to the Tilera SPI ROM
• type: tristate
• depends on: CONFIG_TILE
• defined in drivers/char/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 4.10–4.16
• modules built: tile-srom

Help text

This device provides character-level read-write access to the SROM, typically via the "0", "1", and "2" devices in /dev/srom/. The Tilera hypervisor makes the flash device appear much like a simple EEPROM, and knows how to partition a single ROM for multiple purposes.
