Document (overlapping) codenames for toolchains, platforms, Kconfigurations, signing schemes, etc. #3491

Closed

Description

@marc-hb

What do "TGL" or "CHT" mean? Are they Intel SoCs, PCH codenames, Kconfigurations, toolchain names, signing schemes? Probably a bit of everything depending on the context, no one knows for sure. No one except @jajanusz , who agreed in #3451 (comment) that some documentation is really needed. Quoting myself from there:

I can think of two places: either sof-docs or the top of src/arch/extensa/CMakeLists.txt but maybe there is a better place.

    @marc-hb there is a platform description table in sof-docs - this info could be added in new columns. They are product names but also used for fw and toolchain config.

    They are product names but also used for fw and toolchain config.

    These "accidental" 1:1:1 mappings seem pretty bad. Because they "accidentally" work until they don't:
    #3451 (comment)

    Short of renaming everything to tgl-toolchain, tgl-kconfig, etc., some documentation would really help mitigate.

    @greg-intel feel free to add links to these in sof-docs if not already stated.

    Lowered priority, but actually, let's close this. We have considerable updates in https://thesofproject.github.io/latest/getting_started/intel_debug/introduction.html and https://thesofproject.github.io/latest/platforms/index.html (and more in the works in pull-requests for sof-docs). Let's file more specific bugs if information is missing for a particular configuration.
