A file like rm-cfg.yaml accidentally left in the source tree root
shadows the board-specific copy. binman builds the wrong YAML, the
resulting rm-cfg.bin may match a different SoC, and we end up with
the following error:
k3_system_controller sysctrler: k3_sysctrler_start:
Boot Notification response failed. ret = -110
Move the board directory ahead of the srctree root so that the
most-specific match wins.

See for example: arch/arm/dts/k3-j721e-binman.dtsi:308: private-key = "arch/arm/mach-k3/keys/custMpk.pem"; Also, people sometimes put files in the source tree, e.g. BL31 images, in the hope that they will be found.

Yes, but that came quite a bit later with the bintool stuff (2021). Anyway, with a bit of work I believe we could drop the source dir. Would you like to look at it, or should I?

Well, the first step would be getting some more feedback on how people override some of these files for example. Even more environment files seems like a bad idea and I'm not sure what BINMAN_INDIRS can't cover today. -- Tom [-- Attachment #2: signature.asc --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 228 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

Assuming you mean 'environment variables', we do need the actual filename, not just the directory. We could have default filenames for each entry type, I suppose. Some do already.
