Hi Mariano,The .dts file in arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ is part of kernel sources, these are separately maintained to the LTIB config/platform/*/ files.
From what I can see, the BSP developer has created a number of .dts files to work for a number of different hardware boot scenarios. When LTIB builds the kernel it does:
for DTC_NAME in $DTC_NAMES do _create_dtb_file.... doneThis means they end up with one kernel that can be booted using different .dtb files to cope with variations of hardware. I suspect one of those is the same as the one described by the kernel-sources default .dts file.

Why are there multiple .dts files on a MPC8313 LTIB BSP?I see a .dts file at arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ and another that is almost identical (although slightly different) at config/platform/mpc8313erdb/dts/ Is one of them not used? What is the purpose of each? Thanks!
