1a9468c9a0 dtc: Abolish asize field of struct data
The asize field in struct data is a hangover from the early days when
a struct data was sometimes allowed to refer to a static chunk of
memory rather than a malloc()ed block.

That's long gone, since the lifetime issues were far more trouble than
it was worth, so get rid of the asize field.

b2de518b80 dtc: Make -I dtb mode use fill_fullpaths()
At present -I dts and -I fs modes both use the fill_fullpaths() helper
function to fill in the fullpath and basenamelen fields of struct
node, which are useful in later parts of the code.  -I dtb mode,
however, fills these in itself.

This patch simplifies flattree.c by making -I dtb mode use
fill_fullpaths() like the others.

ad4f54ae2b Return a non-zero exit code if an error occurs during dts parsing.
Previously, only failure to parse caused the reading of the tree to fail;
semantic errors that called yyerror() but not YYERROR only emitted a message,
without signalling make to stop the build.

376ab6f2ed dtc: Remove remaining old-style checks
The remaining old-style tree checking code: check_root(), check_cpus()
and check_memory() really aren't that useful.  They mostly check for
the presence of particular nodes and properties.  That's inherently
prone to false-positives, because we could be dealing with an
artificial tree (like many of the testcases) or it could be expected
that the missing properties are filled in by a bootloader or other
agent.

If any of these checks really turns out to be useful, we can
reimplement them later in a better conceived way on top of the new
checking infrastructure.  For now, just get rid of them, removing the
last vestiges of the old-style checking code (hoorah).

efbbef8e4f dtc: Implement path references
This patch extends dtc syntax to allow references (&label, or
&{/full/path}) directly within property definitions, rather than
inside a cell list.  Such references are expanded to the full path of
the referenced node, as a string, instead of to a phandle as
references within cell lists are evaluated.

A testcase is also included.

2d72816ccf dtc: Fix uninitialized use of structure_ok
My rework of the tree checking code introduced a potentially nasty bug
- it uses the structure_ok variable uninitialized.  This patch fixes
the problem.  It's a fairly ugly bandaid approach, but the ugly will
disappear once future patches have folded the semantic checks into the
new framework.

dc941774e2 dtc: Merge refs and labels into single "markers" list (v2)
Currently, every 'data' object, used to represent property values, has
two lists of fixup structures - one for labels and one for references.
Sometimes we want to look at them separately, but other times we need
to consider both types of fixup.

I'm planning to implement string references, where a full path rather
than a phandle is substituted into a property value.  Adding yet
another list of fixups for that would start to get silly.  So, this
patch merges the "refs" and "labels" lists into a single list of
"markers", each of which has a type field indicating if it represents
a label or a phandle reference.  String references or any other new
type of in-data marker will then just need a new type value - merging
data blocks and other common manipulations will just work.

While I was at it I made some cleanups to the handling of fixups which
simplify things further.

b16a2bd89d dtc: Flexible tree checking infrastructure (v2)
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.

7b3fb789d2 DTC: Remove the need for the GLR Parser.
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.

169f0b183d dtc: Disable semantic checks by default
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.

constants relating to the flattened device tree format derived from
asm-powerpc/prom.h in the kernel.  The former is used in dtc, the
latter in libfdt.

throughout, removing flat_dt.h.

6a99b13132 dtc: implement labels on property data
Extend the parser grammer to allow labels before or after any
property data (string, cell list, or byte list), and any
byte or cell within the property data.

Store the labels using the same linked list structure as node
references, but using a parallel list.

When writing assembly output emit global labels as offsets from
the start of the definition of the data.

Note that the alignment for a cell list is done as part of the
opening < delimiter, not the = or , before it.  To label a cell
after a string or byte list put the label inside the cell list.

For example,
	prop = zero: [ aa bb ], two: < four: 1234 > eight: ;
will produce labels with offsets 0, 2, 4, and 8 bytes from
the beginning of the data for property prop.

32da475af1 Allow multipart property values
At present each property definition in a dts file must give as the
value either a string ("abc..."), a bytestring ([12abcd...]) or a cell
list (<1 2 3 ...>).  This patch allows a property value to be given as
several of these, comma-separated.  The final property value is just
the components appended together.  So a property could have a list of
cells followed by a string, or a bytestring followed by some cells.
Cells are always aligned, so if cells are given following a string or
bytestring which is not a multiple of 4 bytes long, zero bytes are
inserted to align the following cells.

The primary motivation for this feature, however, is to allow defining
a property as a list of several strings.  This is what's needed for
defining OF 'compatible' properties, and is less ugly and fiddly than
using embedded \0s in the strings.
