Hi all,

in general I am interested in using a dts to get a dtbo and get the second one 
loaded by u-boot when using SOC AM335x (my current test board is a Beagleboard 
green).
At the moment I am trying to use a BB-BONE-LCD5-01-00A1.dts to customise the 
kernel device tree.

Unfortunately, despite setting the " overlay_files" variable in uEnv.txt:

* the generated BB-BONE-LCD5-01-00A1.dtb on the boot folder of the MMC seems to 
have no effect.
* I don't see any useful info on the u-boot log.
* checking on /sys/firmware/devicetree/base I am not able to tell if the dtbo 
has been loaded

I am using:

* meta-ti: branch zeus, commit 1dd4558 (with a fixed .wks see 
https://lists.yoctoproject. org/g/meta-ti/message/12916) ( 
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/meta-ti/message/12916) ). I will probably 
switch to tag ti2020.00 or previous if needed
* poky: branch zeus, commit ca9cc50
* meta-openembedded: branch zeus, commit 44e458f
* MACHINE set to beaglebone

Notes

* BB-BONE-LCD5-01-00A1.dtbo has been generated by a recipe that uses the 
devicetree.bbclass (See device-tree.bb ( 
https://github.com/nathanrossi/gps-clock-project/blob/wip-devicetree-classify/meta-gps-clock/recipes/device-tree/device-tree.bb
 ) and openembedded-core ( 
https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/blob/master/meta/classes/devicetree.bbclass
 ) ).
* to get the .dtbo in the boot partition when using WIC the local.conf (or 
<machine>.conf or ...) has been edited adding the followiing line

IMAGE_BOOT_FILES_append = " devicetree/*"

Doubts:
* taking a look to the u-boot tag ti2020.01.00 used by the meta-ti version I am 
using, I see that CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT_OVERLAY is not set for am335x. Therefore I 
suppose that the variable overlay_files set in uEnv.txt would have no effect 
for am335X SOC, is it correct?
* If the previous point is correct, which is the suggested approach to 
customise the device-tree with current u-boot? Probably using the "single FIT 
image" described in overlay-fdt-boot.txt in i-boot sources?
Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

Regards
Luca
