Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 1/9] libfdt: board-id: Implement board-id scoring

The devicetree spec introduced a mechanism to match devicetree blobs to
boards using firmware-provided identifiers. Although the matching can be
implemented by DTB loaders, having a canonical implementation makes it
easier to integrate and ensure consistent behavior across ecosystems.

I've not yet investigated swig/python support for the new functions; I
would work on that before submitting the patch to libfdt.

Can you share a link to where the devicetree spec introduced this
mechanism? I don't recall seeing a PR to dt-schema for it nor did a
quick check of the devicetree specification repo show a PR adding it.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Conor.

My thinking is that the next patch would probably go to dt-schema or
devicetree specification repo.

Thanks,
