wrote: 1) what consumes these DTBs?
They are not maintained in the SLE branches so if anything does use them it should change.
We need DTBs for most ARM systems, so this is a mandatory requirement.
I don't dispute that DTBs are needed. But do they come from the kernel package?
Yes, they are. From arch/arm/boot/dts/ and arch/arm64/boot/dts/
Yes, there are DTBs in the kernel. What exactly uses these unmaintained DTBs?
Why unmaintained? They are maintained as the rest of sources of the Linux kernel. Non-UEFI ARM systems require those DTB to boot a Linux kernel. The DTB is passed by the bootloader (u-boot/grub). Cheers, Guillaume
Thanks

Thanks, Guillaume
Thanks

2) it will noy build due to obsolete dtc in SLE15.
We must update dtc, then. Could you take care of it, please? Because it
must go through SLE, I think.
Thanks, Guillaume
Thanks
