Example overlays seen in other places use a compatible property on root node of an overlay to specify SOC compatibility. These don't get merged into base FDT as they're not part of a fragment, but it's expected that consumers of the overlay may want to check it. If /compatible on the overlay is missing, just apply it. This is the "I know what I'm doing" mode for those wanting to whip up a quick overlay and apply it. An overlay intended for distribution should include /compatible so as not to break a user's system. If /compatible on the overlay exists, honor it and cross-check it with /compatible on the base FDT. If /compatible on the base FDT is missing in this case, don't apply the overlay rather than risk breaking the system. Move the COPYOUT of overlay material to before we allocate space for next_fdtp so that we can avoid the allocation and copy into next_fdtp if we already know that the overlay can't apply. This gives way to the possibility of autoloading overlays found in /boot/overlays, since this provides a means of filtering out overlays not applicable to the current board.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel
and installkernel
targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel
and installkernel
targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
