According to f3b493750a304791b057eda246b473810aa8bf40 the handoff files somehow come from https://rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/AtlasSoCDevelopmentPlatform > I'm currently using "Terasic SoCKit" for the preloader and "Terasic > DE0-NANO-SoC aka Atlas" for the main barebox. > If you have the board an can test which handoff files are correct and work on the hardware, I'd say: Send patches :) I can't verify if the current support works or not as I don't have access to the hardware. > My other problem is that there are differences in the "compatible" > strings that Linux devicetrees use compared to barebox, which causes the > blspec loader to fail to load entries containing devicetree files with > different "compatible" strings for what should be the same board. > > For MACH_SOCFPGA_TERASIC_DE0_NANO_SOC: > > barebox: > > compatible = "terasic,de0-nano-soc","altr,socfpga-cyclone5", > "altr,socfpga"; > > (closest match in) Linux: > > compatible = "terasic,de0-atlas", "altr,socfpga-cyclone5", "altr,socfpga"; > > For MACH_SOCFPGA_TERASIC_SOCKIT: > > barebox: > > compatible = "terasic,sockit", "altr,socfpga"; > > Linux: > > compatible = "terasic,socfpga-cyclone5-sockit", > "altr,socfpga-cyclone5", "altr,socfpga"; > > For MACH_SOCFPGA_ALTERA_SOCDK: > > barebox: > > compatible = "altr,socdk", "altr,socfpga-cyclone5", "altr,socfpga"; > > Linux: > > compatible = "altr,socfpga-cyclone5-socdk", "altr,socfpga-cyclone5", > "altr,socfpga"; > > > Would the best fix for those be to replace the existing compatible > strings, or use a union between the current barebox and Linux strings? Use the one from linux and fixup the board.c files in barebox. The barebox compatibles are there, because the upstream bindings didn't have board specific compatibles.
