One can list all the .dts files in a directory and convert those to %.dtb targets, but that doesn't work for base+overlay DTB targets. Adding the dts subdirectory is straight-forward, but building the DTBs should only happen for certain targets (dtbs, dtbs_check, %.dtb, %.dtbo, and the directory target(s)). The 'scripts_dtc' rule doesn't really depend on 'dt_binding_schemas', but the directory target only depends on 'scripts' which depends on 'scripts_dtc'.

Maybe someone knows a better way. Yeah, I do worry that just looking for "dtb" in MAKECMDGOALS could result in some false positives but in the tree now, I only see one .c file that would trigger this logic, so maybe it is not that big of a deal? $ fd dtb arch/microblaze/boot/dts/linked_dtb.S arch/mips/include/asm/mach-loongson64/builtin_dtbs.h arch/um/kernel/dtb.c drivers/gpu/drm/ci/dtbs-check.sh scripts/Makefile.dtbinst scripts/Makefile.dtbs Unfortunately, my Make-fu is pretty weak right now so I do not have any immediate suggestions but Nicolas might... otherwise, we could probably ride this for right now and either revert it or forward fix it if problems come up in further testing, since this does seem rather useful for folks working on device tree files. > v2: > - Convert arm, mips and riscv.
