These hardware might be things like LDO regulators, various controllers, GPIO, etc which are generic, but yet needs certain configuration that should not be hard-coded into the kernel. To understand more about device trees I recommend you start with the Raspberry Pi [documentation on this topic](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/device-tree.md). There are more links at the end of this article.\n\n\n\nOverlays:\n------------\n\nStep 1: Clone this repo:\n```sh\ngit clone https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/seeed-linux-dtoverlays\ncd seeed-linux-dtoverlays\n```\nStep 2: Compile the code\n```sh\n#Select platform by replacing word \u003cplatform\u003e to\n#one of {jetsonnano bb stm32mp1 rpi imx6ull}.\n#On iMx6ull-NPI\nmake all_imx6ull\n#on RPI\nmake all_rpi\n#On beagleboard\nmake all_bb\n#On JetsonNano\nmake all_jetsonnano\n```\n\nStep 3: Install *.dtbo:\n```sh\n#On iMx6ull-NPI\nsudo make install_imx6ull\n#on RPI\nsudo make install_rpi\n#On beagleboard\nsudo make install_bb\n#On JetsonNano\nsudo make install_jetsonnano\n```\nmore:\n```sh\n@echo \"Targets:\"\n@echo \"  all_\u003cPLATFORM\u003e:            Build all device tree binaries for \u003cPLATFORM\u003e\"\n@echo \"  clean_\u003cPLATFORM\u003e:          Clean all generated files for \u003cPLATFORM\u003e\"\n@echo \"  install_\u003cPLATFORM\u003e:        Install all generated files for \u003cPLATFORM\u003e (sudo)\"\n@echo \"\"\n@echo \"  overlays/\u003cPLATFORM\u003e/\u003cDTS\u003e.dtbo   Build a single device tree binary\"\n@echo \"\"\n@echo \"PLATFORMES: jetsonnano bb stm32mp1 rpi imx6ull\"\n\n```\n\n## Further Reading\n- Device Tree for Dummies: https://elinux.org/images/f/f9/Petazzoni-device-tree-dummies_0.pdf\n- Raspberry Pi and the Device Tree: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/device-tree.md\n- Device Tree overlay support in the Linux Kernel: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/overlay-notes.txt\n- FDT overlays in U-Boot: https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/blob/master/doc/README.fdt-overlays\n\n## Modules:\n------------\nMainline does not have a kernel module, or there is controversy about a kernel module that does work well.
