Could you please add a doc/ file for this board and explain how to build it and how to run U-Boot on it?
Ah I forgot to add that since the build/boot instructions are quite similar to db410c. BTW, I will add that in the next spin.
Probably just referencing that document or making the language generic would be good.
I will rename that doc to be rather SoC specific with board specific sub-sections.
Sumit, could you rebase this series on my generic board support? [1] in it's current form this series conflicts, and includes some of the major anti-patterns I'm trying to move away from in mach-snapdragon.
Although, I haven't gone through your series but I was expecting those conflicts. Let's work together to make this series compatible on top of yours.
You should not have to introduce a new CONFIG_TARGET_XYZ variable, and from what I can tell you shouldn't even need to add the board/schneider directory at all, you can just set the following in your defconfig:
CONFIG_SYS_BOARD="dragonboard410c"
This is simply a misnomer, its HMIBSC board. I suppose we should rather separate the SoC specific bits into mach-snapdragon and let different boards use them.
Is there any reason why you can't just use the existing db410c board code as-is? I don't see why you want to duplicate it.
The only reason the db410c and db820c have their board code is because they're old platforms and already supported. For adding new support there needs to be some very strong justification to have board-specific C code.
I think it would be nice to make the db410c code go away, or be toggled at runtime, probably most of it will just work and not break any other boards anyway. The db820c code is just part of what should be in the pinctrl driver...
Let's move away from this old model and towards having more generic U-Boot images. This will snowball towards making future bringup even easier.
CONFIG_SYS_CONFIG_NAME="hmibsc"
This will use the db410c board code (which yours is just a copy/paste of from what I can tell) and your custom include/configs/hmibsc.h header.
The addresses set in your environment file should be allocated automatically at runtime too (see the ("mach-snapdragon: dynamic load addresses") patch).
You should also switch to an upstream board DTS based on my series, and drop the "-uboot.dtsi" file.
Unfortunately, currently there isn't any upstream DTS for this board but I will check with the SE team regarding their plans. Until then we have to use a U-Boot specific DTS file.
In that case, perhaps we can take whatever DTS they're using in production, or a version of it, and at least split the U-Boot changes (if any) out into a separate file as I've done with the other platforms. This way we stay consistent and can keep track of what U-Boot specific DTS changes we need.
I guess this is all new territory for us, but imho if we're adding support for a board that doesn't have an upstream DTS, we should still follow the same model, open to input here.

difference from db410c is serial port where HMIBSC board uses UART1 as the debug console with an RS232 port, patch #1 - #3 adds corresponding driver support.
Patch #4 adds main HMIBSC board specific bits, features:
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 410C SoC - APQ8016 (4xCortex A53, Adreno 306)
- 2GiB RAM
- 64GiB eMMC, SD slot
- WiFi and Bluetooth
- 2x Host, 1x Device USB port
- HDMI
- Discrete TPM2 chip over SPI
Patch #5 - #7 enables specific board features like RAUC support, environment protection and USB networking support.
This patch series is based on top of Qcom maintainer tree [1] + the latest PMIC patch-set [2]. Feedback is very much welcome.
