Abstract
In Lab 9, you created and inserted a simple loadable kernel module (LKM). This was possible because the Hello World LKM did not interact with hardware. In order for the Linux kernel to know what hardware it is running on, it must be informed of the hardware by the compiled device tree .dtb file, which is loaded as part of the boot process (see Sect. 3.1.5 Boot Step 5: Linux (page 30)). This lab will introduce you to device trees and you will create a device tree for your custom DE10-Nano system.
