CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB: Compile and link device tree into kernel image

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB has multiple definitions:

Compile and link device tree into kernel image found in arch/nios2/platform/Kconfig.platform

The configuration item CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB:

• prompt: Compile and link device tree into kernel image
• type: bool
• depends on: ! CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST
• defined in arch/nios2/platform/Kconfig.platform
• found in Linux kernels: 6.15–6.17, 6.18-rc+HEAD

Help text

This allows you to specify a dts (device tree source) file which will be compiled and linked into the kernel image.

Enable built-in dtb in kernel found in arch/loongarch/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB:

• prompt: Enable built-in dtb in kernel
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_OF
• defined in arch/loongarch/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 6.8–6.17, 6.18-rc+HEAD

Help text

Some existing systems do not provide a canonical device tree to the kernel at boot time. Let's provide a device tree table in the kernel, keyed by the dts filename, containing the relevant DTBs.

Built-in DTBs are generic enough and can be used as references.

Built-in device tree found in arch/riscv/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB:

• prompt: Built-in device tree
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_OF && CONFIG_NONPORTABLE
• defined in arch/riscv/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 6.8–6.17, 6.18-rc+HEAD

Help text

Build a device tree into the Linux image. This option should be selected if no bootloader is being used. If unsure, say N.

Use builtin DTB found in arch/sh/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB:

• prompt: Use builtin DTB
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_SH_DEVICE_TREE
• defined in arch/sh/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 6.14–6.17, 6.18-rc+HEAD

Help text

Link a device tree blob for particular hardware into the kernel, suppressing use of the DTB pointer provided by the bootloader. This option should only be used with legacy bootloaders that are not capable of providing a DTB to the kernel, or for experimental hardware without stable device tree bindings.
