The decision should not be make in the top level makefile, but in spl/Makefile. And this can simply check if a board directory exists in the first place. > Why not just invoke the board level Makefile from the top-level > Makefile and let it decide about the code-reuse by doing something like > I did? Because then we need board specific directories and board specific Makefiles even for those boards where no board specific code exists, and all these Makefiles will be semi-identical copies of each other. > > Then we should adapt the directory and Makefile structure and allow > > for such common code without need for separate spl/board/ > > directories. > > Do you have any specific proposals?

Let's rather spoend a few thoughts initially and solve this problem before it spreads.
