properties的value可以是empty或是以下資料型態:
- 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";
這章節介紹幾個API，用於存取這些常見的資料型態，會以下的DTS的內容進行parse
/ {
node1 {
compatible = "brook,dts-test";
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";
};

an-empty-property;
a-cell-property = <1 2 3 4>; /* each number (cell) is a uint32 */

};

以下摘錄http://www.myexception.cn/linux-unix/1910031.html, linux下devicetree中常用的of函數
