[PATCH v6 00/14] arm: am335x: Switch to upstream devicetree

Wed Apr 15 18:02:21 CEST 2026


The series is split into two logical groups:

- Patches 1-3: Fixes for am335x-evm to boot and support the LCD panel
  with the current u-boot devicetree.
- Patches 4-14: Make upstream devicetree working with uboot. This
  adds tick-timer, adds compatibility of the board code for different
  USB probing, makes SPL smaller and updates the defconfig.

The series has been tested on am335x-evm. Note that I don't have all
other boards built with the am335x_*evm_*defconfig, so tests are
appreciated. buildman reports builds are working.

Dependencies:
  - net: cpsw: Add cpsw-switch DT binding support

Changes in v6:
- Add patch to add am335x-bonegreen-eco-u-boot.dtsi which sets
  tick-timer
- Add patch to remove all devicetrees that were moved to OF_UPSTREAM
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260410-topic-am33-evm-oftree-v2026-01-v5-0-4b9c7aca0e3e@baylibre.com

Changes in v5:
- Add patch to add lcdc on beagle bone black to all boot phases. Without
  this patch booting uboot on bbb fails.
- Add patch to split SIMPLE_PM_BUS into two, one for SPL and one for
  normal u-boot. This was done to reduce the size of SPL.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260127-topic-am33-evm-oftree-v2026-01-v4-0-0dadb0710ce7@baylibre.com

Changes in v4:
- Add patch to enable SPL_OPTIMIZE_INLINING to reduce size and fix the
  build
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251204-topic-am33-evm-oftree-v2026-01-v3-0-3d1566ce4dc7@baylibre.com

Changes in v3:
- Add patch to unify all config variants for the am335x-evm and similar
  boards. This also updates the upstream defconfig enablement patch to
  effectively switch all config variants to OF_UPSTREAM.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251128-topic-am33-evm-oftree-v2026-01-v2-0-42a863304498@baylibre.com

Changes in v2:
- Most of the independent patches were extracted in smaller series
- Added patch to add vidconsole for am335x-evm
- Add chosen tick-timer to all devicetrees that are used with the
  am335x_evm_defconfig
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251118-topic-am33-evm-oftree-v2026-01-v1-0-91ce13c661e2@baylibre.com
