I did not notice you applying them, but such guideline - DTS must go via respective SoC tree - was always repeated by me and SoC maintainers. Just like gazillion other things probably was not documented... or even if it was documented, it would be so deep among hundreds of other rules nobody would find it. :) > > This exchange suggests that I did it all wrong.

Just to remind: we talk about DTS (so also DTSI and DTSO), thus everything being in arch/*/boot/dts/. We do not talk about DT bindings, right? The bindings are obvious (and documented): preferably go via driver subsystem, with fallback/special cases via SoC tree and fallback to Rob. The DTS must be independent from driver changes. If synchronization is needed, it means it is not independent. It happens from time to time, kind of expected exception, with proper justifications. In such case, recommendation is to send DTS for the next kernel release, so after the driver changes hit rc1. > > FWIW, if dts changes are sent as separate series, I don't know how I would > be able to review driver changes/submissions without being copied on the > associated dts changes. People are also encouraged to provide links between them. One lore link is required: the DTS patchset, if sent in parallel, should have a link to the thread with the bindings being reviewed on the list. Of course if bindings are already accepted (in linux-next), then it's not necessary. We all know how to use git grep. Now about your specific question: As a driver subsystem maintainer you are not expected, as a requirement, to review DTS code. You can, you are welcomed, but don't you have already too much stuff to review? Why would like to jump to DTS? If you do, your help is appreciated, though. However think for a sec how would it even work? Imagine we send new driver + bindings + DTS for OMAP in one thread, so you see the DTS for your review. Now 2 months later I send DTS for Qualcomm using that driver. You would never be Cc-ed on this second submission. It wouldn't be even possible: get_maintainers.pl would not print your email. Why would you be expected to be CCed on first DTS to review and not on all others/further ones? This does not make sense, really. BTW, I am not saying here anything new. I was babbling about this every second month since few years. :) Best regards, Krzysztof
