+      <p>DTS (Device Tree Source) files provide a human-readable
+	source description of the hardware resources for a given
+	computer system (such as ARM- or MIPS-based embedded boards).
+	The DTS source representation must be compiled into a binary
+	format in order to be linked into the kernel and used to
+	locate devices at runtime.</p>
+
+      <p>The DTS files in &os; were updated to match the versions from
+	Linux 4.11, to represent more modern devices and provide more
+	accurate representations.</p>
