[4/6] arm64: dts: rockchip: Rename roc-pc with libretech notation

846 diff mbox series

Though the ROC-PC is manufactured by firefly, it is co-designed
by libretch like other Libretech computer boards from allwinner,
amlogic does.

So, it is always meaningful to keep maintain those vendors who
are part of design participation so-that the linux mainline
code will expose outside world who are the makers of such
hardware prototypes.

So, rename the existing rk3399-roc-pc.dts with libretch notation,
rk3399-libretech-roc-rk3399-pc.dts

Somewhat "randomly" renaming files for "exposure" of the maker isn't the
way to go. Especially as the file name itself is merely a handle and not
meant for fame. The board filename should mainly enable developers to
hopefully the correct board file to use/change - and "rk3399-roc-pc"
is sufficiently unique to do that.

Similar to how the NanoPi boards do that.

And renames not only loose the history of changes but also in this case
the file is in the kernel since july 2018 - more than a year, so this might
actually affect the workflow of someone.

So I'd really expect an actual technical reason for a rename.

Yes, I agreed this point.

This changes purely based on the recent changes on naming conventions
that have been followed in amlogic and allwinner with regards to
libretech [1]. I have seen few Bananapi boards from Allwinner H3 has
been converted as per Libretech computer recently. I assume these
changes are because libretech has part of co-designed vendor and also
open source forum supported for these hardware.

For further information, may be Da Xue can comment on this.

The DTS file for AML-S905X-CC has never been renamed.

The ALL-H3-CC was only reworked to split out the common bits to accommodate
the different SoC (H3 vs H5) variants for the same board. Even after the
rework, the board DTS files retained their original naming scheme. Same
goes for the Bananapi M2+. However we have never renamed Bananapi files
to Libretech.

Since Libre Computer and Firefly both have the ROC-RK3399-PC, renaming
it is likely to cause some confusion.
