I am using the sama5d27-wlsom1-ek board for my demo and I am trying to make changes to the device tree.
So far I have compiled core-image-minimal and find my dtb files are generated in
/tmp/work/sama5d27_wlsom1_ek_sd-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-at91/5.4+gitAUTOINC+3dba8c9991-r0/build/arch/arm/boot/dts
folder.
Also I find many different dts files in
build/tmp/work-shared/sama5d27-wlsom1-ek-sd/kernel-source/arch/arm/boot/dts
But where does my machine get device tree files if they are generated inside the build folder and if I use my custom dts file how do I update them?
I want to build the image using my custom.dts file where I enable certain peripherals and disable the ones not required. (A test to customize dtb's in future).
I tried different methods found here How to use an own device tree and modified kernel config in Yocto? as well as Quick rebuild of device tree only with Yocto/bitbake?
I created a new meta-local layer and added it to bblayer
followed by recipetool command to add my dts file to the new layer. Added KERNEL_DEVICETREE += "custom.dtb" to the .bbappend file generated inside meta-local and then run bitbake build image command so far
But, I seem to run into the following errors when I try to build the image.

I'd suggest using devtool modify linux-at91 to modify the linux kernel source-tree. This will create a linux-at91 folder in your ${TOPDIR}/workspace/sources/linux-at91. If you don't know your ${TOPDIR}, try to use bitbake -e <recipe-name> | grep "TOPDIR". bitbake -e will print your entire metadata for that recipe, here you can use grep to find the assignments of different variables. (like your KERNEL_DEVICETREE)
${TOPDIR}/workspace/sources/linux-at91
This will be the source tree for your linux-at91 recipe.
Copy your dts files into ${TOPDIR}/workspace/sources/linux-at91/arch/arm/boot/dts.
Modify the Makefile to include your dts, as pointed out by @BelHadjSalem TALEL (Thanks!).
Commit these changes and generate a patch.
In your own layer, under recipes-kernel/linux-at91/linux-at91 place this patch file. Add recipes-kernel/linux-at91/linux-at91.bbappend to include this patch as below:
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"
SRC_URI += "file://0001-add-dts-file.patch"
Now to build your custom-machine, add conf/machine/custom-machine.conf and add an entry for your custom KERNEL_DEVICETREE like shown here
# This will inherit your base machine
require conf/machine/sama5d27-wlsom1-ek-sd.conf
KERNEL_DEVICETREE = "your-dts-file.dtb"
Overall, your layer will have following files:
- conf/layer.conf
- conf/machine/custom-machine.conf (Contains the above settings)
- recipes-kernel/linux-at91/linux-at91/0001-add-dts-file.patch
- recipes-kernel/linux-at91/linux-at91/linux-at91.bbappend
