Iterating through subnodes with libfdt is a little painful to write as we
need something like this:
for (depth = 0, count = 0,
offset = fdt_next_node(fdt, parent_offset, &depth);
(offset >= 0) && (depth > 0);
offset = fdt_next_node(fdt, offset, &depth)) {
if (depth == 1) {
/* code body */
}
}
Using fdt_next_subnode() we can instead write this, which is shorter and
easier to get right:
for (offset = fdt_first_subnode(fdt, parent_offset);
offset >= 0;
offset = fdt_next_subnode(fdt, offset)) {
/* code body */
}
Also, it doesn't require two levels of indentation for the loop body.

The libfdt read/write functions are now usable enough that it's become a
moderately common pattern to use them to build and manipulate a device
tree from scratch. For example, we do so ourself in our rw_tree1 testcase,
and qemu is starting to use this model when building device trees for some
targets such as e500.
However, the read/write functions require some sort of valid tree to begin
with, so this necessitates either having a trivial canned dtb to begin with
or, more commonly, creating an empty tree using the serial-write functions
first.
This patch adds a helper function which uses the serial-write functions to
create a trivial, empty but complete and valid tree in a supplied buffer,
ready for manipulation with the read/write functions.

For ages, we've been talking about adding functions to libfdt to allow
iteration through properties. So, finally, here are some.
I got bogged down on this for a long time because I didn't want to
expose offsets directly to properties to the callers. But without
that, attempting to make reasonable iteration functions just became
horrible. So eventually, I settled on an interface which does now
expose property offsets. fdt_first_property_offset() and
fdt_next_property_offset() are used to step through the offsets of the
properties starting from a particularly node offset. The details of
the property at each offset can then be retrieved with either
fdt_get_property_by_offset() or fdt_getprop_by_offset() which have
interfaces similar to fdt_get_property() and fdt_getprop()
respectively.
No explicit testcases are included, but we do use the new functions to
reimplement the existing fdt_get_property() function.

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, callers of fdt_next_tag() must usually follow the call with
some sort of call to fdt_offset_ptr() to verify that the blob isn't
truncated in the middle of the tag data they're going to process.
This is a bit silly, since fdt_next_tag() generally has to call
fdt_offset_ptr() on at least some of the data following the tag for
its own operation.
This patch alters fdt_next_tag() to always use fdt_offset_ptr() to
verify the data between its starting offset and the offset it returns
in nextoffset. This simplifies fdt_get_property() which no longer has
to verify itself that the property data is all present.
At the same time, I neaten and clarify the error handling for
fdt_next_tag(). Previously, fdt_next_tag() could return -1 instead of
a tag value in some circumstances - which almost none of the callers
checked for. Also, fdt_next_tag() could return FDT_END either because
it encountered an FDT_END tag, or because it reached the end of the
structure block - no way was provided to tell between these cases.
With this patch, fdt_next_tag() always returns FDT_END with a negative
value in nextoffset for an error. This means the several places which
loop looking for FDT_END will still work correctly - they only need to
check for errors at the end. The errors which fdt_next_tag() can
report are:
- -FDT_ERR_TRUNCATED if it reached the end of the structure
block instead of finding a tag.
- -FDT_BADSTRUCTURE if a bad tag was encountered, or if the
tag data couldn't be verified with fdt_offset_ptr().
This patch also updates the callers of fdt_next_tag(), where
appropriate, to make use of the new error reporting.
Finally, the prototype for the long gone _fdt_next_tag() is removed
from libfdt_internal.h.

Currently fdt_next_node() will find the next node in the blob
regardless of whether it is above, below or at the same level in the
tree as the starting node - the depth parameter is updated to indicate
which is the case. When a depth parameter is supplied, this patch
makes it instead terminate immediately when it finds the END_NODE tag
for a node at depth 0. In this case it returns the offset immediately
past the END_NODE tag.
This has a couple of advantages. First, this slightly simplifies
fdt_subnode_offset(), which no longer needs to explicitly check that
fdt_next_node()'s iteration hasn't left the starting node. Second,
this allows fdt_next_node() to be used to implement
_fdt_node_end_offset() considerably simplifying the latter function.
The other users of fdt_next_node() either don't need to iterate out of
the starting node, or don't pass a depth parameter at all. Any
callers that really need to iterate out of the starting node, but keep
tracking depth can do so by biasing the initial depth value.
This is a semantic change, but I think it's very unlikely to break any
existing library users.

Second, in some circumstances, it will return -FDT_ERR_BADOFFSET

As well as fdt_subnode_offset(), libfdt includes an
fdt_subnode_offset_namelen() function that takes the subnode name to
look up not as a NUL-terminated string, but as a string with an
explicit length. This can be useful when the caller has the name as
part of a longer string, such as a full path.
However, we don't have corresponding 'namelen' versions for
fdt_get_property() and fdt_getprop(). There are less obvious use
cases for these variants on property names, but there are
circumstances where they can be useful e.g. looking up property names
which need to be parsed from a longer string buffer such as user input
or a configuration file, or looking up an alias in a path with
IEEE1275 style aliases.
So, since it's very easy to implement such variants, this patch does
so. The original NUL-terminated variants are, of course, implemented
in terms of the namelen versions.

libfdt is supposed to easy to embed in projects all and sundry.
Often, it won't be practical to separate the embedded libfdt's
namespace from that of the surrounding project. Which means there can
be namespace conflicts between even libfdt's internal/static functions
and functions or macros coming from the surrounding project's headers
via libfdt_env.h.
This patch, therefore, renames a bunch of libfdt internal functions
and macros and makes a few other chances to reduce the chances of
namespace collisions with embedding projects. Specifically:
- Internal functions (even static ones) are now named _fdt_*()
- The type and (static) global for the error table in
fdt_strerror() gain an fdt_ prefix
- The unused macro PALIGN is removed
- The memeq and streq macros are removed and open-coded in the
users (they were only used once each)
- Other macros gain an FDT_ prefix
- To save some of the bulk from the previous change, an

FDT_ALIGN(x, FDT_TAGSIZE)

I've recently worked with a FreeBSD developer, getting dtc and libfdt
working on FreeBSD. This showed up a number of portability problems
in the dtc package which this patch addresses. Changes are as
follows:
- the parent_offset and supernode_atdepth_offset testcases
used the glibc extension functions strchrnul() and strndupa(). Those
are removed, using slightly longer coding with standard C functions
instead.
- some other testcases had a #define _GNU_SOURCE for no
particular reason. This is removed.
- run_tests.sh has bash specific constructs removed, and the
interpreter changed to /bin/sh. This apparently now runs fine on
FreeBSD's /bin/sh, and I've also tested it with both ash and dash.
- convert-dtsv0-lexer.l has some extra #includes added. These
must have been included indirectly with Linux and glibc, but aren't on
FreeBSD.
- the endian handling functions in libfdt_env.h, based on
endian.h and byteswap.h are replaced with some portable open-coded
versions. Unfortunately, these result in fairly crappy code when
compiled, but as far as I can determine there doesn't seem to be any
POSIX, SUS or de facto standard way of determining endianness at
compile time, nor standard names for byteswapping functions.
- some more endian handling, from testdata.h using the
problematic endian.h is simply removed, since it wasn't actually being
used anyway.

This patch makes a couple of small cleanups to parameter checking of
libfdt functions.
- In several functions which take a node offset, we use an
idiom involving fdt_next_tag() first to check that we have indeed been
given a node offset. This patch adds a helper function
_fdt_check_node_offset() to encapsulate this usage of fdt_next_tag().
- In fdt_rw.c in several places we have the expanded version
of the RW_CHECK_HEADER() macro for no particular reason. This patch
replaces those instances with an invocation of the macro; that's what
it's for.
- In fdt_sw.c we rename the check_header_sw() function to
sw_check_header() to match the analgous function in fdt_rw.c, and we
provide an SW_CHECK_HEADER() wrapper macro as RW_CHECK_HEADER()
functions in fdt_rw.c

In a number of places through libfdt and its tests, we have *_typed()
macro variants on functions which use gcc's typeof and statement
expression extensions to allow passing literals where the underlying
function takes a buffer and size.
These seemed like a good idea at the time, but in fact they have some
problems. They use typeof and statement expressions, extensions I'd
prefer to avoid for portability. Plus, they have potential gotchas -
although they'll deal with the size of the thing passed, they won't
deal with other representation issues (like endianness) and results
could be very strange if the type of the expression passed isn't what
you think it is.
In fact, the only users of these _typed() macros were when the value
passed is a single cell (32-bit integer). Therefore, this patch
removes all these _typed() macros and replaces them with explicit
_cell() variants which handle a single 32-bit integer, and which also
perform endian convesions as appropriate.
With this in place, it now becomes easy to use standardized big-endian
representation for integer valued properties in the testcases,
regardless of the platform we're running on. We therefore do that,
which has the additional advantage that all the example trees created
during a test run are now byte-for-byte identical regardless of
platform.
