Are those event codes properly defined in the DT already?

e.g. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/px30-ringneck-haikou.dts#L31

If so, what prevents us from simply patching the U-Boot DT to change that code? No additional code required anywhere, no need to maintain a list of mapping, etc...

Many platforms in U-Boot are now switching to upstream DT, and SystemReady compliance requires that the bootloader provide a DT to the kernel.

U-Boot doesn't really have a generic way to apply specific adjustments to FDT for U-Boot without them being carried over to the kernel.

Patching FDT is in and of itself somewhat treacherous without using OF_LIVE, which isn't set up until after bind(), making it unsuitable. It's also vastly slower to patch FDT than to patch a livetree.

I couldn't conceive of a way to do via patching DT that wouldn't require solving the above problems, I also couldn't think of another example that would justify making this patch more generic or configurable.

Kind regards,

If that isn't possible, .........

....... I suggest to make this a weak function that can be overridden by boards (should it maybe be only defined in boards C file?) so that it's easy for people to come up with their own mapping without having to deal with two people/the maintainer disagreeing with what should be the one and true mapping for that key.

Cheers,
Quentin
