It's the problem of creating fake DTS or DTSI files whose purpose is only to include others. Keep it simple. Don't create unnecessary files.

You have a carrier board - a DTS file. That's simple design which is mostly followed, unless something over complicated passes the review. > 1.

Easy to extend if someone can create another SoM with a similar Carrier. Not really, if they include carrier DTSI they need to override a lot. So usually (including practice - I did it) they *copy* the carrier to create their own design. > > Ie is the whole idea to keep carrier board dtsi and includes them in dts. > > As I suggest, if you can look into px30 you can understand more easily. NAK from my side. I explained my reasoning. You created a fake, empty DTSI which included only other DTSI. After review, you agreed to fix it. However you still create a fake DTS which includes only a DTSI. "Entities should not be multiplied without necessity." Best regards, Krzysztof
