Device tree compiler should fail if your board is not supported for a particular driver?

[aslansq]

I have esp32-c6-devkit-1 board. it has a led strip connected to regular gpio pin and I wanted to use ws2812_gpio.c. I got error __device_dts_ord_7.
Why/How device tree compiler not failing? I think it should not be able to compile at first place, if my board is not in the supported boards list. As of now error occurs on final linking stage. It seems weird to me

As far as I understand you should have gotten a warning in KConfig when enabling WS2812__STRIP_GPIO=y that a KConfig dependency is missing. I am not sure this will trigger a compiler error.

Normally when I experience missing device tree instances I check if I get any warnings from KConfig in my build.

sorry I am new community. I actually just copy pasted by hand instead of using menuconfig.
so I managed to understand the problem at the end, maybe we could have message while compiling missing dependency or sth. what do you think?
