Is there an automated tool, or a guide for that? No, there is no automated tool, because it is not possible to do that automatically. The device drivers used by your board must have a Device Tree binding, and writing the Device Tree source cannot directly be done from the C board file. It requires human knowledge and intervention. Could you be more specific about the platform you would look to convert to the Device Tree? Where is the existing source code?
