It will be easier,but requires dts for all combinations,we have have sd/emmc combination twice (once for nand enabling,once for nor) and we have then 4 full dts instead of smaller overlays in fit. So i should add spi subnodes both disabled in base dtsi and create 4 dts (sd-nand,sd-nor,emmc-nand,emmc-nor) with mmc node and enabling the right spi node? >> >> >> Signed-off-by: Frank Wunderlich <frank-w@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> >> --- >> >> maybe rename to dtso? >> >> >> >> "kbuild: Allow DTB overlays to built from .dtso named source files" >> >> https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux.git/commit/?h=dt/next&id=363547d2191cbc32ca954ba75d72908712398ff2 >> >> Should i do this? > >Yes. .dts -> .dtbo is going to be removed.

This is a third way if i understand correctly Make all of them as overlay (dtso?) but build dtb by combining them in makefile. This looks the best way because it avoids redundand code for mmc node and allows my current spi config (not the status way which may break due to same unit address). I guess my base dtsi is then a dts too? Or should these overlays only duplicated and either include sd dts or emmc dts (but this creates again redundant code)? >> >> --- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/mediatek/Makefile >> >> +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/mediatek/Makefile >> >> @@ -8,6 +8,8 @@ dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt6797-x20-dev.dtb >> >> dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt7622-rfb1.dtb >> >> dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt7622-bananapi-bpi-r64.dtb >> >> dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-emmc.dtb >> >> +dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-nand.dtbo >> >> +dtb-$(CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK) += mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-nor.dtbo >> > >> >These need rules to apply them to the base dtb(s).

Oh,need to check,copied partitions from my uboot dts...maybe there is a linux version for marking it as fit partition,else i drop completely. So i i stay with current way i have to rename overlays to dtso and add info about base dtb (bpi-r3-sd/emmc) to commit message or into the overlay itself? >Rob regards Frank
