A usual board file contains at least one of_machine_is_compatible().
Some of the have a rather long list with complicated version logic.
To avoid own implementation for driver management, register the root node
of device tree as platform device. So, the main platform bus can attach
proper board driver. After this patch a typical board.c file can reuse
existing driver infrastructure.
After this patch, you will be able to see all registered board drivers
with drvinfo as fallow:
...
board-embest-riot
board-protonic-imx6
machine.of
...
With devinfo, you'll be able to get some board specific information,
if this is implemented:
barebox@Protonic PRTI6Q board:/ devinfo machine.of
Driver: board-protonic-imx6
Bus: platform
Parameters:
boardid: 0 (type: uint32)
boardrev: 1 (type: uint32)
