[PATCHv2 0/4] ARM build infra changes to support building .dtbos

[Tero Kristo]

Hi,

This v2 is just a split of the v1 series, adding support for building
DT overlays to ARM build infra. The series also adds support for
individual Makefiles under boot/dts hierarchy, so that per-dir
flags or rules can be introduced (patch #2, #4.)

Depends on the kbuild change for adding support for building .dtbo files [1].

[PATCHv2 2/4] ARM: dts: add support for individual build flags for DT subdirs

[Tero Kristo]

Currently the makefile is setup in such manner that even if
we build a DT file in a subdirectory under arch/arm/boot/dts,
it gets built based on the base boot/dts/Makefile rules.
This patch modifies the base makefile in such manner, that
it detects which makefile to use based on build target path.
This allows setting for example per-directory DTC_FLAGS and
using those for the subdir build. The dtbdir local variable
is setup to target to the build path.

The idea of adding knowledge of .dtso and .dtbo files to the dtc
compiler, but that idea and the related patches have fallen by
the wayside.

Current overlay sources and blobs are properly handled by dtc when
they are .dts and .dtb files.

If the dtc compiler is updated with knowledge of .dtso and .dtbo
then these changes would be needed.  At the moment the distinction
of a .dtso and .dtbo is a naming convention that provides a clue
about the intended use of the file.  But dtc does not know these
file name extensions, requiring a specific flag to tell dtc to
treat them as .dts or .dtb files.  I think the negative outweighs
the positive for this patch.

This will need to change with my rework of the DT build rules[1].

I don't follow what you are proposing. We should decide on a convention though.

We shouldn't need .dtso because that is identified with the /plugin/
tag. Distinguishing overlay dtbs with .dtbo seems like a good idea
though.

I noted technical reasons that using .dtbo has both good and bad aspects.
I too at times just fall back to a "sounds good" or "sounds bad" type
response (and will continue to do so in the future), but in this case
please provide a somewhat stronger reasoning for using .dtbo since I
stated that I feel the in technical balance the negatives outweigh the
positives.  If dtc adds knowledge of .dtbo my opinion of the balance
will immediately reverse.

The makefile magic to handle subdirectories below $(boot)/dts/ already
works properly to have Makefiles in $(boot)/dts/, using the following
rule in arch/arm64/Makefile:

%.dtb: scripts
        $(Q)$(MAKE) $(build)=$(boot)/dts $(boot)/dts/$@

I don't understand why that works for arm64, but it should work the
same way for arm.  Or if arch/arm is missing another piece from
arch/arm64 we should be consistent with however the make system
specifies it in arch/arm64

It should just need a subdir-y for the sub-directory. The target is
"subdir/some.dtb" though.

If we want to build specific directories, we should get the standard
way of doing that to work: make arch/arm/boot/dts/subdir/
