The first computer controlled diesel pickup truck class engine didn't come out till the mid 1990s and "chipping it" wouldn't make them smoke.
The first diesel truck that could be "chipped" to make them smoke didnt come out around 1999 or 2000. So it's not just my truck. It's every truck from that time period plus another decade and then some. So you just don't know anything about diesel engines.

DPF stands for "diesel particulate filter".
You really don't under stand diesel engines beyond "put a chip in them and they smoke". Since you can't seem to understand how water injection and soot tie in together and you can't find it Google searching. I'm pretty sure that 2012 ecomodder thread spelled it all out, I think there were even epa studies linked, if the links haven gone dead, some thermodynamic process theory, entropy discussion, ect.
I'm highly immature are you just now figuring that out?
