The dtb overlay format only permits (non local) fixups to reference labels,
not paths. That's because the fixup target goes into the property name in
the overlay, and property names aren't permitted to include '/' characters.
Stop erroneously generating such fixups, because we didn't check for this
case.

Reference via label allows extending nodes with compile-time checking of
whether the node being extended exists. This is useful to catch
renamed/removed nodes after an update of the device trees to be extended.
In absence of labels in the original device trees, new style path
references can be used:
/* upstream device tree */
/ {
leds: some-non-standard-led-controller-name {
led-0 {
default-state = "off";
};
};
};
/* downstream device tree */
&{/some-non-standard-led-controller-name/led-0} {
default-state = "on";
};
This is a common theme within the barebox bootloader[0], which extends the
upstream (Linux) device trees in that manner. The downside is that,
especially for deep nodes, these references can get quite long and tend to
break often due to upstream rework (e.g. rename to adhere to bindings).
Often there is a label a level or two higher that could be used. This
patch allows combining both a label and a new style path reference to
get a compile-time-checked reference, which allows rewriting the
previous downstream device tree snippet to:
&{leds/led-0} {
default-state = "on";
};
This won't be broken when /some-non-standard-led-controller-name is
renamed or moved while keeping the label. And if led-0 is renamed, we
will get the expected compile-time error.
Overlay support is skipped for now as they require special support: The
label and relative path parts need to be resolved at overlay apply-time,
not at compile-time.

With -Wsign-compare, compilers warn about a mismatching signedness
in comparisons in the function get_node_by_path().
Taking the difference between two pointers results in a signed ptrdiff_t
type, which mismatches the unsigned type returned by strlen().
Since "p" has been returned by a call to strchr() with "path" as its

difference must be positive. So a cast to an unsigned type is valid.

Extend the parser to record positions, in build_node,
build_node_delete, and build_property.
srcpos structures are added to the property and node types, and to the
parameter lists of the above functions that construct these types.
Nodes and properties that are created by the compiler rather than from
parsing source code have NULL as the srcpos value.
merge_nodes, defined in livetree.c, uses srcpos_extend to combine
multiple positions, resulting in a list of positions. srcpos_extend
is defined in srcpos.c. New elements are added at the end. This
requires the srcpos type, define in srcpos.h, to be a list structure
with a next field. This next field is initialized to NULL in
srcpos.h, in the macro YYLLOC_DEFAULT invoked implicitly by the
generated parser code.
Another change to srcpos.c is to make srcpos_copy always do a full
copy, including a copy of the file substructure. This is required
because when dtc is used on the output of cpp, the successive detected
file names overwrite the file name in the file structure. The next
field does not need to be deep copied, because it is always NULL when
srcpos_copy is called; an assert checks for this. File names are only
updated in uncopied position structures.

A number of platforms have a need to reduce the number of DT nodes,
mostly because of two similar constraints: the size of the DT blob, and
the time it takes to parse it.
As the DT is used in more and more SoCs, and by more projects, some
constraints start to appear in bootloaders running from SRAM with an
order of magnitude of 10kB. A typical DT is in the same order of
magnitude, so any effort to reduce the blob size is welcome in such an
environment.
Some platforms also want to reach very fast boot time, and the time it
takes to parse a typical DT starts to be noticeable.
Both of these issues can be mitigated by reducing the number of nodes in
the DT. The biggest provider of nodes is usually the pin controller and
its subnodes, usually one for each valid pin configuration in a given
SoC.
Obviously, a single, fixed, set of these nodes will be used by a given
board, so we can introduce a node property that will tell the DT
compiler to drop the nodes when they are not referenced in the tree, and
as such wouldn't be useful in the targetted system.

We've recently added "syntactic sugar" support to generate runtime dtb
overlays using similar syntax to the compile time overlays we've had for
a while. This worked with the &label { ... } syntax, adjusting an existing
labelled node, but would fail with the &{/path} { ... } syntax attempting
to adjust an existing node referenced by its path.
The previous code would always try to use the "target" property in the
output overlay, which needs to be fixed up, and __fixups__ can only encode
symbols, not paths, so the result could never work properly.
This adds support for the &{/path} syntax for overlays, translating it into
the "target-path" encoding in the output. It also changes existing
behaviour a little because we now unconditionally one fragment for each
overlay section in the source. Previously we would only create a fragment
if we couldn't locally resolve the node referenced. We need this for
path references, because the path is supposed to be referencing something
in the (not yet known) base tree, rather than the overlay tree we are
working with now. In particular one useful case for path based overlays
is using &{/} - but the constructed overlay tree will always have a root
node, meaning that without the change that would attempt to resolve the
fragment locally, which is not what we want.

Fix the grammar by explicitly testing for the condition the

struct fdt_reserve_entry is defined in fdt.h to exactly mirror the

However, in dtc, we also use struct fdt_reserve_entry inside struct

within each node by name, and it sorts nodes by name within their

This is pretty much a non-issue now, but it may become important with

When using node references by label, this could lead to confusing
results (with no warning), and in -Oasm mode will result in output
which the assembler will complain about (since it too will have
duplicate labels).
This patch, therefore, adds code to checks.c to give errors if you

Currently, when in -Idts -Odtb or -Ifs -Odtb modes, dtc always
defaults to using 0 as the value for the boot_cpuid_phys header field.
That's correct quite often, but there are some systems where there is
no CPU with hardware ID of 0, or where we don't want to use the CPU
with hardware ID 0 at all (e.g. for AMP-style partitioning). The only
way to override this default currently, is with the -b command line
option.
This patch improves dtc to instead base the default boot_cpuid_phys
value on the reg property of the first listed subnode of /cpus. This
means that dtc will get boot_cpuid_phys correct by default in a
greater proportion of cases (since the boot cpu is usually listed
first, and this way at least the boot_cpuid_phys default will match
some existing cpu node). If the node doesn't exist or has an invalid
'reg' property (missing or not 4 bytes in length), then
boot_cpuid_phys is set to 0.

Currently, the Linux kernel, libfdt and dtc, when using flattened
device trees encode a node's phandle into a property named
"linux,phandle". The ePAPR specification, however - aiming as it is
to not be a Linux specific spec - requires that phandles be encoded in
a property named simply "phandle".
This patch adds support for this newer approach to dtc and libfdt.
Specifically:
- fdt_get_phandle() will now return the correct phandle if it
is supplied in either of these properties
- fdt_node_offset_by_phandle() will correctly find a node with
the given phandle encoded in either property.
- By default, when auto-generating phandles, dtc will encode
it into both properties for maximum compatibility. A new -H
option allows either only old-style or only new-style
properties to be generated.
- If phandle properties are explicitly supplied in the dts
file, dtc will not auto-generate ones in the alternate format.
- If both properties are supplied, dtc will check that they
have the same value.
- Some existing testcases are updated to use a mix of old and
new-style phandles, partially testing the changes.
- A new phandle_format test further tests the libfdt support,
and the -H option.

Currently, dtc will generate phandles for nodes which are referenced
elsewhere in the tree. phandles can also be explicitly assigned by
defining the linux,phandle property. However, there is no way,
currently to tell dtc to generate a phandle for a node if it is not
referenced elsewhere. This is inconvenient when it's expected that
later processing on the flat tree might add nodes which _will_
the node in question.
One way one might attempt to do this is with the construct:
mynode: mynode {
linux,phandle = <&mynode>;
/* ... */
};
Though it's a trifle odd, there's really only one sensible meaning
which can be assigned to this construct: allocate a unique phandle to
"mynode" and put that in its linux,phandle property (as always).
Currently, however, dtc will choke on this self-reference. This patch
corrects this, making the construct above give the expected results.
It also ensures a more meaningful error message is given if you
attempt to process the nonsensical construct:
mynode: mynode {
linux,phandle = <&someothernode>;
/* ... */
};

which only make sense for dts input (like reference handling) are
excluded, as are those which currently take dtb input because they
rely on things which cannot be lexically constructed in a dts file.
This shows up two small bugs in dtc, which are also corrected.
First, the name_properties test which was is supposed to remove
correctly formed 'name' properties (because they can be reconstructed
from tne node name) was instead removing 'name' properties even if
they weren't correct.
Secondly, when using dtb or fs input, the runtime tree in dtc did not

small advantages:

Currently, dtc will put the nonsense value 0xfeedbeef into the
boot_cpuid_phys field of an output blob, unless explicitly given
another value with the -b command line option. As well as being a
totally unuseful default value, this also means that dtc won't
properly preserve the boot_cpuid_phys field in -I dtb -O dtb mode.
This patch reworks things to improve the boot_cpuid handling. The new
semantics are that the output's boot_cpuid_phys value is:
the value given on the command line if -b is used
otherwise
the value from the input, if in -I dtb mode
otherwise
0
Implementation-wise we do the following:
- boot_cpuid_phys is added to struct boot_info, so that
structure now contains all of the blob's semantic information.
- dt_to_blob() and dt_to_asm() output the cpuid given in
boot_info
- dt_from_blob() fills in boot_info based on the input blob
- The other dt_from_*() functions just record 0, but we can
change this easily if e.g. we invent a way of specifying the boot cpu
in the source format.
- main() overrides the cpuid in the boot_info between input
and output if -b is given
We add some testcases to check this new behaviour.

Currently, main() tests if it got a valid input tree from whichever

functions to communicate a failure to provide input (bi NULL, bi->dt
NULL, or bi->error non-zero). For another, in every case save one, if
the dt_from_*() functions are unable to provide input they will
immediately die() (with a more specific error message) rather than
proceeding to the test in main().
Therefore, this patch removes this test, making the one case that
could have triggered it (in dt_from_source()) call die() directly
instead. With this change, the error field in struct boot_info is now

dtc: Flexible tree checking infrastructure
Here, at last, is a substantial start on revising dtc's infrastructure
for checking the tree; this is the rework I've been saying was
necessary practically since dtc was first release.
In the new model, we have a table of "check" structures, each with a
name, references to checking functions, and status variables. Each
check can (in principle) be individually switched off or on (as either
a warning or error). Checks have a list of prerequisites, so if
checks need to rely on results from earlier checks to make sense (or
even to avoid crashing) they just need to list the relevant other
checks there.
For now, only the "structural" checks and the fixups for phandle
references are converted to the new mechanism. The rather more
involved semantic checks (which is where this new mechanism will
really be useful) will have to be converted in future patches.
At present, there's no user interface for turning on/off the checks -
the -f option now forces output even if "error" level checks fail.
Again, future patches will be needed to add the fine-grained control,
but that should be quite straightforward with the infrastructure
implemented here.
Also adds a testcase for the handling of bad references, which catches
a bug encountered while developing this patch.

This patch moves the dtc code for checking the device tree its
processing into a new checks.c. The tree accessor functions from
livetree.c which the checks use are exported and added to dtc.h.
Another small step towards a flexible checking architecture.

Previously, there were a few shift/reduce and reduce/reduce
errors in the grammar that were being handled by the not-so-popular
GLR Parser technique.
Flip a right-recursive stack-abusing rule into a left-recursive
stack-friendly rule and clear up three messes in one shot: No more
conflicts, no need for the GLR parser, and friendlier stackness.
Compensate by reversing the property list on the node.

At present, dtc makes a lot of semantic checks on the device tree by
default, and will refuse to produce output if they fail. This means
people tend to need -f to force output despite failing semantic checks
rather a lot.
This patch splits the device tree checks into structural checks (no
bad or duplicate names or phandles) and semantic checks (everything
else). By default, only the structural checks are performed, and are
fatal. -f will force output even with structural errors (using this
in -Idts mode would essentially always be a bad idea, but it might be
useful in -Idtb mode for examining a malformed dtb).
Semantic checks are only performed if the new -c command line option
is supplied, and are always warnings only. Semantic checks will never
be performed on a tree with structural errors.
This patch is only a stopgap before implementing proper fine-grained
error/warning handling, but it should at least get rid of the
far-too-frequent need for -f for the time being.
This patch removes the -f from the dtc testcases now that it's no
longer necessary.

This large patch removes all trailing whitespace from dtc (including
libfdt, the testsuite and documentation). It also removes a handful
of redundant blank lines (at the end of functions, or when there are
two blank lines together for no particular reason).
As well as anything else, this means that quilt won't whinge when I go
to convert the whole of libfdt into a patch to apply to the kernel.
