Firmware Configuration and Compilation
--------------------------------------
-All firmware types mandate the definition of the following compile time
-configuration parameter.
-
-* **FW_TEXT_ADDR** - Defines the address at which the previous booting stage
- loads OpenSBI firmware.
+All firmware types support the following common compile time configuration
+parameters:
+
+* **FW_TEXT_ADDR** - Defines the execution address of the OpenSBI firmware.
+ This configuration parameter is mandatory.
+* **FW_FDT_PATH** - Path to an external flattened device tree binary file to
+ be embedded in the *.rodata* section of the final firmware. If this option
+ is not provided then the firmware will expect the FDT to be passed as an
+ argument by the prior booting stage.
+* **FW_FDT_PADDING** - Optional zero bytes padding to the embedded flattened
+ device tree binary file specified by **FW_FDT_PATH** option.
Additionally, each firmware type as a set of type specific configuration
parameters. Detailed information for each firmware type can be found in the
