      fdt: introduce fdt_create_phandle() · a8d2a75d
      Gerald Van Baren authored 
      
The ePAPR specification says that phandle properties should be called
"phandle", and not "linux,phandle".  To facilitate the migration from
"linux,phandle" to "phandle", introduce function fdt_create_phandle(),
which creates a phandle in a given node.  For now, we create both the
"phandle" and "linux,phandle" properties.  A later version of this
function will remove support for "linux,phandle".

      fdt: introduce fdt_verify_alias_address() and fdt_get_base_address() · bb682001
      Timur Tabi authored 
      
Introduce two functions, fdt_verify_alias_address() and
fdt_get_base_address(), which can be used to verify the physical address
of a device in a device tree.

fdt_get_base_address() returns the base address of an SOC or PCI node.

fdt_verify_alias_address() prints a message if the address of a node
specified by an alias does not match the given physical address.

      libfdt: Implement property iteration functions · d1c63148
      David Gibson authored 
      
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.

      Support ePAPR compliant phandle properties · 05a22ba0
      David Gibson authored 
      
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.
