2020-12-09driver core: Add fwnode link supportSaravana Kannan
Add support for creating supplier-consumer links between fwnodes. It is intended for internal use the driver core and generic firmware support code (eg. Device Tree, ACPI), so it is simple by design and the API provided is limited.

2019-12-24of: Rework and simplify phandle cache to use a fixed sizeRob Herring
The phandle cache was added to speed up of_find_node_by_phandle() by avoiding walking the whole DT to find a matching phandle. The implementation has several shortcomings: - The cache is designed to work on a linear set of phandle values. This is true for dtc generated DTs, but not for other cases such as Power. - The cache isn't enabled until of_core_init() and a typical system may see hundreds of calls to of_find_node_by_phandle() before that point. - The cache is freed and re-allocated when the number of phandles changes. - It takes a raw spinlock around a memory allocation which breaks on RT. Change the implementation to a fixed size and use hash_32() as the cache index. This greatly simplifies the implementation. It avoids the need for any re-alloc of the cache and taking a reference on nodes in the cache. We only have a single source of removing cache entries which is of_detach_node(). Using hash_32() removes any assumption on phandle values improving the hit rate for non-linear phandle values. The effect on linear values using hash_32() is about a 10% collision. The chances of thrashing on colliding values seems to be low. To compare performance, I used a RK3399 board which is a pretty typical system. I found that just measuring boot time as done previously is noisy and may be impacted by other things. Also bringing up secondary cores causes some issues with measuring, so I booted with 'nr_cpus=1'. With no caching, calls to of_find_node_by_phandle() take about 20124 us for 1248 calls. There's an additional 288 calls before time keeping is up. Using the average time per hit/miss with the cache, we can calculate these calls to take 690 us (277 hit / 11 miss) with a 128 entry cache and 13319 us with no cache or an uninitialized cache. Comparing the 3 implementations the time spent in of_find_node_by_phandle() is: no cache: 20124 us (+ 13319 us) 128 entry cache: 5134 us (+ 690 us) current cache: 819 us (+ 13319 us) We could move the allocation of the cache earlier to improve the current cache, but that just further complicates the situation as it needs to be after slab is up, so we can't do it when unflattening (which uses memblock).

2018-11-08of: overlay: set node fields from properties when add new overlay nodeFrank Rowand
Overlay nodes added by add_changeset_node() do not have the node fields name, phandle, and type set. The node passed to __of_attach_node() when the add node changeset entry is processed does not contain any properties. The node's properties are located in add property changeset entries that will be processed after the add node changeset is applied. Set the node's fields in the node contained in the add node changeset entry and do not set them to incorrect values in add_changeset_node(). A visible symptom that is fixed by this patch is the names of nodes added by overlays that have an entry in /sys/bus/platform/drivers/*/ will contain the unit-address but the node-name will be <NULL>, for example, "fc4ab000.<NULL>". After applying the patch the name, in this example, for node restart@fc4ab000 is "fc4ab000.restart". Tested-by: Alan Tull <atull@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>

When an attempt to apply an overlay changeset fails, an effort is made to revert any partial application of the changeset. When an attempt to remove an overlay changeset fails, an effort is made to re-apply any partial reversion of the changeset. The existing code does not check for failure to recover a failed overlay changeset application or overlay changeset revert. Add the missing checks and flag the devicetree as corrupt if the state of the devicetree can not be determined. Improve and expand the returned errors to more fully reflect the result of the effort to undo the partial effects of a failed attempt to apply or remove an overlay changeset.

Introducing DT transactional support. A DT transaction is a method which allows one to apply changes in the live tree, in such a way that either the full set of changes take effect, or the state of the tree can be rolled-back to the state it was before it was attempted.

2014-07-23of: Reorder device tree changes and notifiersGrant Likely
Currently, devicetree reconfig notifiers get emitted before the change is applied to the tree, but that behaviour is problematic if the receiver wants the determine the new state of the tree. The current users don't care, but the changeset code to follow will be making multiple changes at once. Reorder notifiers to get emitted after the change has been applied to the tree so that callbacks see the new tree state. At the same time, fixup the existing callbacks to expect the new order. There are a few callbacks that compare the old and new values of a changed property. Put both property pointers into the of_prop_reconfig structure. The current notifiers also allow the notifier callback to fail and cancel the change to the tree, but that feature isn't actually used. It really isn't valid to ignore a tree modification provided by firmware anyway, so remove the ability to cancel a change to the tree.

2014-07-23of: Move dynamic node fixups out of powerpc and into common codeGrant Likely
PowerPC does an odd thing with dynamic nodes. It uses a notifier to catch new node additions and set some of the values like name and type. This makes no sense since that same code can be put directly into of_attach_node(). Besides, all dynamic node users need this, not just powerpc. Fix this problem by moving the logic out of arch/powerpc and into drivers/of/dynamic.c. It is also important to remove this notifier because we want to move the firing of notifiers from before the tree is modified to after so that the receiver gets a consistent view of the tree, but that is incompatible with notifiers that modify the node.

2014-07-23of: Make devicetree sysfs update functions consistent.Grant Likely
All of the DT modification functions are split into two parts, the first part manipulates the DT data structure, and the second part updates sysfs, but the code isn't very consistent about how the second half is called. They don't all enforce the same rules about when it is valid to update sysfs, and there isn't any clarity on locking. The transactional DT modification feature that is coming also needs access to these functions so that it can perform all the structure changes together, and then all the sysfs updates as a second stage instead of doing each one at a time. Fix up the second have by creating a separate __of_*_sysfs() function for each of the helpers. The new functions have consistent naming (ie. of_node_add() becomes __of_attach_node_sysfs()) and all of them now defer if of_init hasn't been called yet. Callers of the new functions must hold the of_mutex to ensure there are no race conditions with of_init(). The mutex ensures that there will only ever be one writer to the tree at any given time. There can still be any number of readers and the raw_spin_lock is still used to make sure access to the data structure is still consistent. Finally, put the function prototypes into of_private.h so they are accessible to the transaction code.

2014-07-16of: Create unlocked versions of node and property add/remove functionsPantelis Antoniou
The DT overlay code will need to manipulate nodes and properties while already holding the devicetree lock, or on nodes that are not yet attached to the tree, but the current helper functions don't allow that. Extract the core behaviour from the accessors and create the following unlocked variants. The unlocked variants require either the lock to already be held or for the nodes to be detached from the tree. Changes to live nodes will not get updated in sysfs, so the caller must arrange for housekeeping to take place after dropping the lock.
