help creating dtb

Hi,

After compiling your kernel, check this directory: /arch/arm/boot/dts copy these three files:

- skeleton.dtsi

- socfpga.dtsi

- socfpga_cyclone5.dts

Now from the Embedded Command Shell, compile these files into a single .dtb file:

dtc -I dts -O dtb -o socfpga.dtb socfpga_cyclone5.dts

Copy the generated socfpga.dtb to your SD card and you should be able to boot kernel.

I tried this with kernel version 3.10-ltsi, and I think all kernel versions come with .dts files.

You can edit the socfpga_cyclone5.dts file and add the entries you need and then compile it again.

Note: you can use the sopc2dts.exe with your .sopcinfo (you get the dts file) to get the dts entries of your FPGA module.
