| SoC Platforms with DTS Compliance Requirements |
| ============================================== |
| |
| Overview |
| -------- |
| |
| SoC platforms or subarchitectures should follow all the rules from |
| Documentation/process/maintainer-soc.rst. This document referenced in |
| MAINTAINERS impose additional requirements listed below. |
| |
| Strict DTS DT Schema and dtc Compliance |
| --------------------------------------- |
| |
| No changes to the SoC platform Devicetree sources (DTS files) should introduce |
| new ``make dtbs_check W=1`` warnings. Warnings in a new board DTS, which are |
| results of issues in an included DTSI file, are considered existing, not new |
| warnings. The platform maintainers have automation in place which should point |
| out any new warnings. |
| |
| If a commit introducing new warnings gets accepted somehow, the resulting |
| issues shall be fixed in reasonable time (e.g. within one release) or the |
| commit reverted. |
