The few core components that are relevant for barebox are the same on all boards, so that the same barebox image runs on all boards. It is possible to dynamically detect the board type inside barebox, but as this requires some infrastructure it is not possible during lowlevel init. So basically Barebox should boot with a minimal core device tree, detect the board type and then use the corresponding device tree of the detected board. Something similar to arch/arm/boards/stm32mp15xx-dkx/lowlevel.c but not at low level. Maybe I missed something, but I couldn't find such a scenario in the existing board code yet. Is there a suggestion on how to best implement such a system, or is there perhaps a board that uses something like this? Thanks ~Matthias _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
