[Verse 1]
Device tree boots up, parsing through the nodes
Compatible strings hold the secret codes
Kernel scans the list, looking for a match
Driver registration waits to make the catch
[Verse 2]
Platform bus creates devices from the tree
Each node becomes hardware you can see
Properties mapped out, resources assigned
Driver probe function gets the hardware bind
[Chorus]
Match the string, bind the thing
Compatible magic makes the hardware sing
Probe succeeds when patterns meet
Device tree to driver, kernel dance complete
String to driver, tree to power
Platform magic every microsecond hour
[Verse 3]
Driver table holds the patterns that align
Compatible entries form the binding line
Wildcard matching helps when versions drift
Specific beats generic in the driver shift
[Verse 4]
Platform device structure holds the state
Resources, interrupts, all configured straight
Driver model handles power, suspend, wake
Device tree provides the blueprint drivers take
[Chorus]
Match the string, bind the thing
Compatible magic makes the hardware sing
Probe succeeds when patterns meet
Device tree to driver, kernel dance complete
String to driver, tree to power
Platform magic every microsecond hour
[Bridge]
Of match table scans from top to bottom line
First compatible hit seals the binding sign
Probe function called with platform device passed
Hardware abstraction built to always last
[Chorus]
Match the string, bind the thing
Compatible magic makes the hardware sing
Probe succeeds when patterns meet
Device tree to driver, kernel dance complete
String to driver, tree to power
Platform magic every microsecond hour
[Outro]
From device tree nodes to running code
Compatible strings light the binding road
