Writing OF is only slightly better. Speaking of "device tree" is surely better, but unfortunately this is such a generic term. What else do we have? - Flat Device Tree (FDT), describes the binary format - Device Tree Blob (DTB), same as FDT - Device Tree Source (DTS) There's just no good name for this mechanism.
