Hi,
i got a bit further and noticed, that required command is not available in uboot...this is normally part of the dtc package [1], so why is it missing in u-boot? I guess later added or dropped to reduce compile time/make porting easier...

Hi,
i try to get overlay-merging working in uboot (for OF_UPSTREAM conversion), but failing on missing Makefile knowledge
i have the state now, that upstream dtso get compiled to dtbo files (that needed further changes).
now i added this from linux-tree:
#merge CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE + OF_OVERLAY_LIST_BASEDT to target DTB #manual: # dtc -I dtb -O dts dts/upstream/src/arm64/mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-sd.dtbo # fdtoverlay -i dts/upstream/src/arm64/mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3.dtb -o dts/upstream/src/arm64/mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-sd.dtb dts/upstream/src/arm64/mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-sd.dtbo # dtc -I dtb -O dts dts/upstream/src/arm64/mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-sd.dtb | less
#currently linux-version quiet_cmd_fdtoverlay = DTOVL $@ cmd_fdtoverlay = $(objtree)/scripts/dtc/fdtoverlay -o $@ -i $(real-prereqs)
$(multi-dtb-y): FORCE $(call if_changed,fdtoverlay) $(call multi_depend, $(multi-dtb-y), .dtb, -dtbs)
and created an config-option CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY_LIST_BASEDT which holds a space separated list of the dtbo-files without path, in my test
CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE="mediatek/mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3" CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY_LIST_BASEDT="mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-nand.dtbo mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-nor.dtbo mt7986a-bananapi-bpi-r3-sd.dtbo"
i now want the list passed to the quiet_cmd_fdtoverlay which should handle each item and add the dtbo to a base-devicetree (like in comments above)....
maybe anyone here can help getting this to work?
