I'm more or less ambivalent about installing all of the possible DTB files in a similar location though. I'm not sure what the use case for that is. Wouldn't you also need to standardise on the dtb filename for each platform and effectively make that ABI?
i thought that was exactly what findfdt() was about: it abstracts all the details about all the different board revisions and upon execution you get the correct dtb file name in the dtbfile variable
FWIW, Ubuntu will soon move the dtbs from /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)/device-tree to /boot/dtbs/$(uname -r), and we already planned to create a shortcut symlink:
/boot/dtb -> /boot/dtbs/$(uname -r)
this or whatever this mailing list picks up.
