Take a look at: http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Capes_3.8_to_3.14#Custom_dtb There is a dozen examples in that repo: spi/usart/adc: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/dtb-rebuilder/blob/3.14-ti/src/arm/am335x-bone-basic-proto-cape.dtsi gpio/rtc/i2c: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/dtb-rebuilder/blob/3.14-ti/src/arm/am335x-bone-rtc-01-00a1.dtsi The default: "am335x-boneblack.dtb" also supports most pins with Charle's config-pin: https://github.com/cdsteinkuehler/beaglebone-universal-io (you can ignore the initial overlay note, as it's loaded by default.) I'm not really planning to document v3.14.x further, as something special is planned to be merged for v3.19-rc1.
