[DistributionPackage] Regarding Device Tree Updates

OKN
Associate III

Hello

I am developing a custom board using the STM32MP255F-AK

Updates to the DeviceTree (DT) of a custom board placed in the `mata` layer are not reflected in the build.

I have already fetched the source using `devtool modify virtual/kernel`

The Device Tree for the custom board is located at .../layers/meta-st/meta-st-stm32mp-addons/mx/ddlskt/..


Edit the kernel's DT (stm32mp255f-ddlskt-mx.dts)
Add a marker to `model = “...”`: `model=“... AAA”`

I tried building it

$ bitbake virtual/kernel

Wrote Image.gz, *.dtb, and modules to the SD card and booted

(brd-ddlskt) # cat /proc/device-tree/model
STMicroelectronics custom STM32CubeMX board - openstlinux-6.6-yocto-scarthgap-mpu-v24.11.06

AAA has not been added to the model

Running `cleansstate` before building will reflect the updated device tree

$ bitbake -c cleansstate virtual/kernel
$ bitbake virtual/kernel

Write Image.gz, *.dtb, and modules to the SD card and boot

(brd-ddlskt) # cat /proc/device-tree/model
STMicroelectronics custom STM32CubeMX board - openstlinux-6.6-yocto-scarthgap-mpu-v24.11.06 AAA

AAA has been added to the model

Is there another way to apply the DT update?

Since running `cleansstate` takes a long time to build, I’d prefer to avoid it if possible

Best Regards,
