QCS8550 is derived from SM8550, it is mainly used in IoT scenarios.

What are the differences? You need to describe the hardware, you have
entire commit msg for something useful which will avoid such comments
from reviewers.

This is a weird file. I thought qcs8550 has differences from sm8550,
e.g. lack of modem, so why do you claim you have here MPSS?
MPSS here in qcs8550 is a GPS only MPSS.

Is it different or the same? Is the interface the same? So many
questions and so little information. You have entire commit msg to
explain this.
we can add all current email information into the commit message in next patchset.


QCS8550 will have a different firmware release with sm8550, and it will
have different memory reserved for the firmware to be used.
While firmware release along with memory map was not settled down yet.
That's why currently qcs8550.dtsi is an "empty file" and only include
sm8550.dtsi. As long as the firmware release is settled down, we will
have more detailed different node here.

So the DTS is not really usable now?
curent qcs8550.dtsi is an "empty file" which is identical to "sm8550.dtsi".
While qcs8550-aim300-itot.dts is currently used with a "temporary reserved memory" for those engineer qcs8550 firmware for boot up and limited function verify.

So the idea here is to postpone only the firmware related reserved memory part. And open an "empty file" qcs8550.dtsi for common which can be used for other board like qcs8550-rb5-gen2.

By the way, RB5 gen2 will also relies on the current qcs8550.dtsi, since
it is using the same qcs8550 soc, and will use the same firmware release.

We have patch version2 remove the qcs8550.dtsi, and have SOM dtsi
qcs8550-aim300.dtsi include the sm8550.dtsi. While after discussion, our
understanding is that we can have an qcs8550.dtsi like this. Feel free
to let us know if it is not right understanding.


It's really confusing now.

We can have a syncup to clear the confusing point if needed. :)


The code and commit msg are confusing. I need to keep asking you to get
any information.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
