That's not even equivalent. You 7500 != 75xx.

Compatibles do not change. It's just a string. Fixed string.

I think there's justification here for removing it, per the commit
message, the rename happened before the device was available to
customers.
Additionally, I think we can give people that upstream things before they're
publicly available a bit of slack, otherwise we're just discouraging
people from upstreaming early.

Hi Conor,

Thanks for understanding - that's exactly what happened. I'm in the
habit of submitting patches early and often and it's no fun when
something like a silly product name gets changed and breaks all the
hard work.

The board model number is stored in an EEPROM at manufacturing time
and that EEPROM model is used to build a dt name. So instead of GW7905
which would be a one-off custom design it was decided to change the
product to a GW75xx. The difference between GW7500 and GW75xx is
because we subload components on boards between GW7500/GW7501/GW7502
etc but the dt is the same.

If there is resistance to a patch that renames it then I guess I'll
have to submit a patch that removes the obsolete board, then adds back
the same board under a different name. Shall I do that?

Best Regards,

Tim

I think this patch is fine - other than the inconsistency that Krzysztof
pointed out between the "renamed to gw7500" and the "gw75xx" in the new
compatible.

I am not a fan of renaming compatibles because of marketing change,
because compatible does not have to reflect the marketing name, but
there was already precedent from Qualcomm which I did not nak, so fine
here as well. Double wildcard 75xx is however a bit worrying.

Hi Krzysztof,

Thanks for understanding. The double-wildcard is again a marketing
tool. All GW75** use the same device-tree by design. The boot firmware
that chooses the device-tree understands this and for a GW7521 for
example would look for gw7521 first, gw752x next, gw75xx last.

Best Regards,

Tim

You haven't documented the other 2 though.

How do "all GW75** use the same device-tree", but then there are 3 
possible DTs for just 1 board?

Selecting a DT is not a unique problem. We don't need unique 
solutions. There's the QCom board-id proposal[1] and OS provided DT[2] 
which are addressing similar issues.

Hi Rob,

I'm not sure those links are really able to address all needs. I see
some similarity with the concept of a board-id taking the place of the
don't-cares used in our names but not the concept of marrying a
baseboard to a SOM with the two different boards creating a named
combination (both which may have some don't cares). The Gateworks
Venice product family of boards (imx8m{m,n,p}-gw7***-*x) boards have
been in the kernel for quite some time now as has been the U-Boot code
that determines the device tree using a baseboard model number
combined with a SOM model number.

A baseboard with an model of GW7301 (programmed into an EERPOM at mfg
time) gets coupled with a SOM with the model of GW7000 and this uses a
device-tree of gw73xx-0x (prepended by the SoC name of imx8mm, imx8mn,
imx8mp). The don't care's here and the naming convention has been
chosen by us, the board manufacturer, leaving enough significant
digits for component subloads that was desired at the time. So a
GW7300 and a GW7301 are the same schematic, they just have some
different loading options.

I really don't understand the issue here. A board was originally named
gw7905 when I brought up the prototype in the lab and created its
device-tree but between then and when it shipped it got moved to the
more generic 'family' of gw75xx baseboards which get coupled with a
SOM. I already have a gw71xx, gw72xx, gw73xx out there for years that
function this way.

Device trees describe hardware using a name... the name changed :(

Quite simply there are no boards out there with a GW7905 in the EEPROM
that need to be supported... they all have a GW7500 programmed in them
(and some may in the future have a GW7501, GW7502, etc).

Is the problem here the fact that I use don't-cares in the names or
the fact that a name changed?

Best Regards,

Tim

When it is doing this matching, does it actually apply a wildcard, or
does it look for "x"? IOW, if your eeprom said "gw7521" and there were
no devicetrees matching "gw7521" but there was one with "gw7500" would
it match?

By "loading options" do you mean "we changed the supplier for the 12v
barrel jack" rather than something that is actually visible to an OS?

IMO, getting hung up on the name changing before a released product is
rather silly, but straightening out what exactly your selection method
is worthwhile.

I attempt to explain the algorithm used in the comment of the U-Boot
code used by U-Boot to both choose the DTB it uses as well as the
bootscript to choose the DTB used for Linux when booting Linux:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/u-boot/latest/source/board/gateworks/venice/eeprom.c#L164

Consider a GW7001-F.1 SOM married to a GW7201-G.2 Baseboard (the
letter at len-2 is the PCB revision and the number is a BOM revision
and those are the full model strings in the EEPROM's of the boards):
fdt_file1=imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x-g2f1.dtb
fdt_file2=imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x-g2f.dtb
fdt_file3=imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x-gf.dtb
fdt_file4=imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x.dtb

The script that loads the fdt for booting Linux looks for fdt_file1
first, then fdt_file2, etc etc so that if needed a 'more specific' dtb
could exist with base-board and som-revision fixups. However to answer
your question the algorithm already assumes that baseboards have 2
digits worth of don't care and match specifically an 'x' for that.
Including the SOM and Baseboard PCB revision and BOM revision was a
safeguard that has never been needed so in practice we always just end
up with the last most generic dtb above which is the case of
'imx8mm-venice-gw72xx-0x.dtb' case means a 'gw72xx' baseboard married
to a 'gw700x' SOM. The 'gw70' is removed from the dtb name as all
Venice SOM's start are GW70**.

So in my mind the dt for the baseboard above is called
'imx8mm-venice-gw72xx' where 'xx' is part of the name but does have
implied meaning. It certainly helps our customers know that the last
two digits of a baseboard are don't-cares.

This is nothing new... I did this for the imx6 based Gateworks Ventana
boards as well most of which have been upstream since Linux 4.x:

So the formula we use here at Gateworks is the first number is the
product family (5=imx6q/dl ventana, 7=imx8m/n/p venice), the next
digit (or digits) is the baseboard and if the 9xx model numbers are
1-off designs that will never have variations.

So here is what currently exists for the Venice family:

All that I'm trying to do is correct the fact that during the point I
had boards in the lab and created the device-tree and the point at
which we shipped the boards it was decided that the GW7905 should not
just be a 1-off board and that we wanted to make it a more widely
available baseboard with room for changes thus it was renamed from
GW7905 to GW7500 with expected GW7501, GW7502, GW7503 revisions
coming.

My whole point here is that in reference to the product naming scheme
I'm not doing anything different than what has been accepted before.
We have our reasons for naming this board combination
'gateworks,imx8mp-gw75xx-2x' instead of the original name
'gateworks,imx8mp-gw7905-2x'. Isn't the whole point that this is a
vendor defined string? I get that it is a string that should not
change but this name change was made before product was shipped so it
seems fair to make the change. If gateworks changed the company name
we would not be allowed to 'change' the existing strings but could
create a new one and start using it (perfect example was when someone
(not us!) decided the vendor name abbreviation of 'gw' should be
replaced with 'gateworks'.

I could stick with the idea that 'gateworks,imx8mp-gw7905-2x' is set
in stone and leave it there and just create a new
'gateworks,imx8mp-gw75xx-2x' but I hate to just duplicate the actual
dts files as that is just a waste and the reason for the 2nd patch of
this series.

Looking for guidance...

Tim

These all have the same root compatible I'm guessing? Based on recent
discussions around firmware picking a DTB, we really want that based
on compatibles, not filenames. After all, compatible is all about most
specific to least specific matching. Maybe it doesn't matter for your
products. However, that's likely the direction we're going and it may
make your life easier to align with that.

Based on this, I'm going to say what you have is fine and let's move on.

We'll all probably forget this and you'll have to remind us the next
time we see wildcards.

Maybe some summary of the discussion and how this changed from one-off
to wider availability.

Hi Rob,

What is the status of this patch? I'm not clear what tree the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings go through.

Best regards,

Always via given subsystem. Which subsystem is here? Maintainers should
tell you - ARM Freescale/NXP.

No maintainer is going to look at 3 month old patches and may or may
not see some reply on it. Generally, if there's any discussion on a
patch, I assume a new version will be the result and move on. So
resend your patch.
