This series intends to let board specific files live in the boards
directory. The last patch moves files for nitrogen6x.
I have tested it with buildman

./tools/buildman/buildman boundary -b denx_master

But it is likely the more scripts then just tools/genboardscfg.py would
need to be updated.

Troy Kisky (5):
  kconfig: allow defconfigs to live in board directory
  dts: allow dts files in board directory
  scripts: Makefile.autoconf: allow CONFIG_SYS_CONFIG_NAME file to live
    in board directory
  genboardcfg: allow defconfigs in board directory
  nitrogen6x: move board specific files to nitrogen6x directory

This will reduce the size of the configs directory, and
make it more clear which board directory uses the defconfig
file.

How could this ever match more than one file?

I think .dts files should be built at the SoC level, at the finest.
Otherwise we might change a .dtsi and break something without
knowing...and it is very hard to know what other builds to do. This
seems to be heading towards target-specific building.

We are actually working on deleting these. What is the benefit of
putting it here?

As mentioned I really don't like the piecemeal building of .dts files
that results from this change.

Sorry for the delayed reply here.  I'm also not entirely sure this is a
good idea.  Moving the defconfig files?  Maybe.  It does make checking
all configs a bit more tricky, but indeed the configs directory is
unwieldy.  Moving the dts files?  Those should be a direct cp from the
kernel, so that makes things less clear to me.  Especially since it will
need other common files that will still be elsewhere.

If two different vendors decide to use the same defconfig file name, this will hit when the 2nd one
tries to merge it upstream.

I can try to address that in the next rev, if that is the only thing stopping it.

Thanks for the review.

Do you have an estimate on how long until the 1st one can be deleted?

The main benefit that I see is making it easier to clone or compare boards.
You just duplicate/diff everything in the board directory and rename files to taste.

My goal for this series is NOT to force everyone to update their board, but rather to allow new
boards to have all their board specific files in one directory.

They will still be a direct copy. Notice the 100% rename. Common files still living in the dts
directory is less clear. I can try to address the "piecemeal building of .dts files" if this
still has a chance of being accepted.

So, here's my worry.  Today, in an ideal world that we're not yet at, I
could do:
1. cd ~/src/linux; git checkout v5.16
2. cd ~/src/u-boot; for DTS in arch/arm/dts/*.dts*; do \
	[ -f ~/src/linux/$DTS ] && cp ~/src/linux/$DTS $DTS; done

And now we're resynced with v5.16.  That gets a lot more complex with
board/*/*/*.dts* too.  And since those files should be direct imports
I'm not sure how them residing in board/ helps.

But!  I can see how having board-u-boot.dtsi exist under board/ might
help.  Or at least, having those files reside somewhere that's NOT where
the unmodified imported dts files also live.  Long term I think we need
to move towards making it easier to import the dts files, and clearer
that they should be "read only" other than when being resynced, than it
is today.

Still, a script could easily check that a dts file exists before overwriting it
and find the correct directory to put it in. A little more complicated, but not a lot.

One thing that maybe be worth remembering, at one time, Linus was suggesting that dtb's would NOT be
a permanent part of Linux. That has probably changed, but maybe eventually, that master repo will be
vendor specific.

If you guys are OK with any of the patches, let me know, and I'll submit a restricted series.

From my side, on the defconfig side, I think it would be OK to allow
those in board directories. I'm not quite sure how much it helps, but
I don't think it would hurt anything, since it is almost as easy to
find *_defconfig as it is to look in the configs/ dir.

I think it would need changes to moveconfig though. Not sure about
anything else.

Simon

If you look at sandbox.h it is fairly close, but still perhaps a
release or two away.

I'm not all that keen on adding the board directory as an include
directory, although I suppose it is OK. We need a way to know which
files are config.h headers so things like moveconfig can update them
easily and we can implement things like this:

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/20210918182122.1854781-1-sjg@chromium.org/

Yes I see that. Was that mentioned in the cover letter? I might have
missed it sorry.

OK.

Again, sorry for the delay.  I just don't think right now these file
moves are the right path forward.  Maybe at some point further down the
road perhaps, once other cleanups are done and having
defconfig/u-boot.dtsi/etc in the board directory will be easier to
maintain long term.

Perhaps we can mimic Linux's arm/arm64 dts split and make the above work better?

Do you envision the *u-boot.dts not moving with the other files ? Or moving to a directory with a
different name? i.e. arm-u-boot, arm64-u-boot, with the same sub-directory structure.

I'd like to see our -u-boot.dtsi stuff separate, to help with enforcing
the notion that dts files go upstream and come back to us unmodified.
Then we have our own files to update them as needed, but the core dtses
aren't to be changed.  Directory structure really comes down to how to
easily implement the build rules I guess, so likely needing to follow
arm64/dts, etc.
