It would be nice to start documenting the board compatibles, at least
for new boards.
So...how do I do that?
Start with something like this for Marvell:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230222203847.2664903-2-colin.foster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Oh, got it. So marvell/armada-38x.yaml needs to be created from
armada-38x.txt like armada-37xx.yaml.
I don't understand why we need three or more files... all or almost all
platforms are having them in one file. So just merge them to one.

Questions:

- who should be assigned to "maintainers:" in new yaml?
Maintainer of platform.

- should the old text file be deleted when new yaml is created?
If you convert, then yes, but we did not talk about conversion but at
least starting documenting the new ones.

thank you for your answers and sorry for my misunderstandings...

So, (to organize my thoughts and understand correctly)

- what is the optimal solution for "documenting the board compatibles" of Marvell platforms in the current state?
- What should I do in this contribution of SA-W2 for "documenting the board compatibles"?




Best regards,
Krzysztof
