compatible parameter origins and overriding

After Qsys system generation: - What are the origins of "compatible" parameter (later used in Device Tree Blob) in generated .sopcifo/.xml files? - And is it possible to override this parameter ...

Device Tree related information in .sopcinfo file is set during qsys - generate process. qsys searches ip core's directory for *_hw.tcl script, where device tree related commands may reside.

for example:

set_module_assignment embeddedsw.dts.vendor "ALTR"

set_module_assignment embeddedsw.dts.group "msgdma"

set_module_assignment embeddedsw.dts.name "msgdma-dispatcher"

set_module_assignment embeddedsw.dts.compatible "ALTR,msgdma-dispatcher-1.0"

overriding can be achieved with editing these scripts
