To quote the author:
At present the ofnode interface is somewhat limited, in that it cannot
access the device tree provided by the OS, only the one used by U-Boot
itself (assuming these are separate). This prevents using ofnode functions
to handle device tree fixups, i.e. ft_board_setup() and the like.
The ofnode interface was introduced to allow a consistent API to access
the device tree, whether a flat tree or a live tree (OF_LIVE) is in use.
With the flat tree, adding nodes and properties at the start of the tree
(as often happens when writing to the /chosen node) requires copying a
lot of data for each operation. With live tree, such operations are
quite a bit faster, since there is no memory copying required. This has to
be weighed against the required memory allocation with OF_LIVE, as well
as the cost of unflattening and flattening the device tree which U-Boot
is running.
This series enables support for access to multiple device trees with the
ofnode interface. This is already available to some extent with OF_LIVE,
but some of the ofnode functions need changes to allow the tree to be
specified.
The mechanism works by using the top 1-4 bits of the device tree offset.
The sign bit is not affected, since negative values must be supported.
With this implemented, it becomes possible to use the ofnode interface
to do device tree fixups. The only current user is the EVT_FT_FIXUP
event.
This has two main benefits:
- ofnode can now be used everywhere, in preference to the libfdt calls
- live tree can eventually be used everywhere, with potential speed
improvements when larger number of fixups are used
This series is only a step along the way. Firstly, while it is possible
to access the 'fix-up' tree using OF_LIVE, most of the fixup functions use
flat tree directly, rather than the ofnode interface. These need to be
updated. Also the tree must be flattened again before it is passed to the
OS. This is not currently implemented.
With OFNODE_MULTI_TREE disabled this has almost no effect on code size:
around 4 bytes if EVENT is enabled, 0 if not. With the feature enabled,
the increase is around 700 bytes, e.g. on venice2:
$ buildman -b ofn2a venice2 -sS --step 0

arm: (for 1/1 boards) all +668.0 text +668.0
This size increase is not too bad, considering the extra functionality,
but is too large to enable everywhere. So for now this features needs to
be opt-in only, based on EVENT.

At present ofnode_write_prop() is inconsistent between livetree and
flattree, in that livetree requires the caller to ensure the property
value is stable (e.g. in rodata or allocated) but flattree does not, since
it makes a copy.
This makes the API call a bit painful to use, since the caller must do
different things depending on OF_LIVE.
Add a new 'copy' argument which tells the function to make a copy if
needed. Add some tests to cover this behaviour.

The current tests do not cover all functions, nor do they cover the new
multi-tree functionality. Add and update the tests accordingly and update
the 'future work' notes in the documentation.
There is a still more testing needed for the failure cases, since at

converting it to an errno.

We need to be able to look up phandles in any FDT, not just the control

Add the logic to redirect requests for the device tree through a function
which can look up the tree ID. This works by using the top bits of
ofnode.of_offset to encode a tree.
It is assumed that there will only be a few device trees used at runtime,
typically the control FDT (always tree ID 0) and possibly a separate FDT
to be passed the OS.
The maximum number of device trees supported at runtime is 8, with this
implementation. That would use bits 30:28 of the node-offset value,
meaning that the positive offset range is limited to bits 27:0, versus
30:1 with this feature disabled. That still allows a device tree of up
to 256MB, which should be enough for most FITs. Larger ones can be
supported by using external data with the FIT, or by enabling OF_LIVE.
Update the documentation a little and fix up the comment for
ofnode_valid().
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
At present, unless OF_LIVE is enabled, ofnode only supports access to one
device tree, the control FDT. This is because only the node offset is
encoded in ofnode, with the tree being implicit.
This makes ofnode (without OF_LIVE) unsuitable for device tree fixups, as
implemented by ft_board_setup() and other such functions.
To solve this, we can use the top bits of the node offset to hold a tree
ID.
Add the definitions for this.

This function turns out to be a little confusing since it looks up a path
and also registers the tree. Split it into two, one that gets the root
node and one that looks up a path, so the purpose is clear.
Registering the tree will happen in a function to be added in a later
patch, called oftree_from_fdt().

In some cases we want to obtain an ofnode in the same tree as a different
ofnode, such as when looking up a subnode. At present this is trivial,
since there is only one tree. When there are multiple trees, this
implementation will change.
Also move the ofnode_to_offset() function up higher in the header file,
since we will need to provide a different implementation with multiple
trees.

Add a test flag which indicates that the 'other' FDT should be set up

If the device tree changes during a test and we cannot restore it, mark
it as such so that future tests which need the live tree are skipped.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
When the flat device tree changes it can mess up the live tree since that
uses the flat tree for its strings. This affects only a few sandbox tests
which modify the device tree, but the number will grow as ofnode support
for writing improves.
While the control FDT is not intended to change while U-Boot is running,
some tests do so. For example, the ofnode interface only supports
modifying properties in the control FDT, so tests must use that.
To solve this problem, keep a copy of the FDT and restore it as needed
when the test is finished. The copy only happens on sandbox (except SPL
builds), to reduce memory usage and because these tests are not useful on
other boards. For other boards, a checksum is taken to ensure that nothing
changes.
It would be possible to always checksum the FDT on sandbox and only
restore it if needed, but this is slightly slower than restoring it every
time, at least with crc8.
Move the code which checks for success to the very end, for clarity.
