[PATCH v2 0/6] libfdt: Add support for device tree overlays

[PATCH v2 0/6] libfdt: Add support for device tree overlays

[Maxime Ripard]

Hi,

The device tree overlays are a great solution to the issue raised by
the bunch expandable boards we find everywhere these days, like the
Beaglebone, Raspberry Pi or CHIP.

Although for now Linux is the only available tool that can deal with
overlays, some other components like bootloaders or user-space tools
might need to apply these overlays on top of a base device tree.

To address these use cases, we introduce a new function to the libfdt,
fdt_overlay_apply, that does just that.

You can find a test program here: http://code.bulix.org/792zum-99476?raw

This is the last patches sent to U-boot, with the modifications
suggested by David, and the additional test cases.

Let me know what you think!
Maxime

Changes from U-Boot v4:
  - Added test cases for the functions
  - Changed the fdt_for_each_subnode argument order
  - Don't error out if -1 phandle is found in fdt_get_max_phandle
  - Used libfdt's fdt_path_offset_namelen

Changes from U-Boot v3:
  - Moved the patch to introduce fdt_getprop_namelen_w earlier to keep
    bisectability
  - Renamed fdt_setprop_inplace_namelen_by_index in
    fdt_setprop_inplace_namelen_partial
  - Reintroduced the check on the property length in fdt_setprop_inplace
  - Made sure the code was taking the non 32bits-aligned phandles
  - Used memchr instead of strchr in the fixup parsing code, and made
    sure the cases where the fixup format was wrong was reported as an
    error.
  - Fixed a bug where a property in a overlay having multiple phandles
    local to that overlay would only resolve the first one. Also added
    a test case for this
  - Added kerneldocs for all the overlay functions
  - Added a patch to fix a typo in separator
  - A few fixes, function renamings, error checking changes here and there

Changes from U-boot v2 / libfdt v1
  - Reworked the code to deal with Pantelis and David numerous
    comments, among which:
    * Remove the need for malloc in the overlay code, and added some
      libfdt functions to do that
    * Remove the DT magic in case of an error to not be able to use it
      anymore
    * Removed the fdt_ and _ function prefix for the static functions
    * Plus the usual bunch of rework, error checking and optimizations.

[PATCH v2 1/6] libfdt: Add a subnodes iterator macro

[Maxime Ripard]

From: Thierry Reding <treding-DDmLM1+adcrQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

The fdt_for_each_subnode() iterator macro provided by this patch can be
used to iterate over a device tree node's subnodes. At each iteration a
loop variable will be set to the next subnode.

Parameter order hasn't been updated for code revisions.

One gotcha with this is what happens if there's an error during the
iteration.  I suggest adding something like:
	if ((node < 0) && (node != -FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND)) {
		/* error handling */
	}

to the example, to remind users that they should check for this.

[PATCH v2 2/6] libfdt: Add iterator over properties

[Maxime Ripard]

Implement a macro based on fdt_first_property_offset and
fdt_next_property_offset that provides a convenience to iterate over all
the properties of a given node.

As with 1/6 code looks ok, but there are a couple of nits in the comment.

Again, parameter order is out of date.

Again add an error handling clause.

  also, when did kerneldoc content start specifying data types in the

It's not, but because this is a macro, not a function, I think it's a
good idea to include.  The data types are constrained by the functions
the macro invokes, but unlike a function comment those aren't obvious
from the function signature immediately below.

Actually.. rather than the somewhat longwinded comment about @node, it
might be worth just noting that it's an lvalue in the parameter
description here.

Perhaps worth mentioning here that this will effectively ignore badly

[PATCH v2 5/6] libfdt: Add fdt_setprop_inplace_namelen_partial

[Maxime Ripard]

Add a function to modify inplace only a portion of a property..

This is especially useful when the property is an array of values, and you
want to update one of them without changing the DT size.

Since fdt_setprop_inplace relies on it now, it already has some test
coverage.

However, I tried to add some testcases for this to the test_tree1, but
it was generating a lot of errors because it seems that not all tests
are run from test_tree1.dts and generated by some other mean I
couldn't identify. Could you point me to the right direction?

Thanks,
Maxime

I'm not quite sure what you mean.

test_tree1 is generated in a number of different ways - these are
cross-compared at various points as part of the tests.

[PATCH v2 6/6] libfdt: Add overlay application function

[Maxime Ripard]

The device tree overlays are a good way to deal with user-modifyable
boards or boards with some kind of an expansion mechanism where we can
easily plug new board in (like the BBB, the Raspberry Pi or the CHIP).

Add a new function to merge overlays with a base device tree.

Why does the absence of a target cause a fragment to be ignored but the absence of an "__overlay__" property cause the merging to be abandoned with an error? Can't we just ignore fragments that aren't recognised?

So, I had the same question.  But fragments we can't make sense MUST
cause failures, and not be silently ignored.

An incompletely applied overlay is almost certainly going to cause you
horrible grief at some point, so you absolutely want to know early if
your overlay is in a format your tool doesn't understand.

Cards on the table time - at Raspberry Pi we've found it convenient to
selectively enable or disable fragments within an overlay based on
user-supplied parameters. The way I've implemented this is by using
"__dormant__" as an antonym to "__overlay__" (partly chosen because it
is the same length), and then pre-processing the overlay before
applying it. This scheme works with the kernel overlay support and our
firmware loader (obviously).

Although I could invent a similar scheme that uses antonyms of
"target" and "target-path", I don't see why this is inherently safer.

Ok, if you want that feature, let's invent a mechanism specifically
for conditionally disabling chunks, rather than using a side-effect
which will break horribly as soon as we extend the overlay format.

Alternatively you could just use fdt_del_node() or fdt_nop_node() to
remove the fragments you don't wish to apply.

I'm not sure how we can achieve that without applying it once, and see
if it fails. The obvious things are easy to detect (like a missing
__overlay__ node), but some others really aren't (like a poorly
formatted phandle, or one that overflows) without applying it
entirely. And that seems difficult without malloc.

So, atomically applying either the whole overlay or nothing would be a
nice property, but it is indeed infeasibly difficult to achieve
without malloc().  Well.. we sort of could by making apply_overlay()
take an output buffer separate from the base tree, but that's not what
I'm suggesting.

I'm fine with the base tree being trashed with an incomplete
application when apply_overlay() reports failure.  WHat I'm not ok
with is *silent* failure.  If you ignore fragments you don't
understand, then - if the overlay uses features that aren't supported
by this version of the code - you'll end up with an incompletely
applied overlay while the apply_overlay() function *reports success*.
That is a recipe for disaster.

Ok, that makes sense. I'll return an error if the target is missing as
well then.

But then, I think we fall back to the discussion you had with
Pantelis: how do you identify an overlay node (that must have a
target) and some other "metadata" node that shouldn't be applied (and
will not have a target). In the first case, we need to report an error
if it's missing. In the second, we should just ignore the node
entirely.

Would turning that code the other way around, and if it has an
__overlay__ subnode, target or target-path is mandatory, and if not
just ignore the node entirely, work for you?

Thanks,
Maxime

Right.  I can see two obvious approaches:

     1. All (top-level) nodes named fragment@* are assumed to be
        overlay fragments.

     2. All top-evel nodes with a subnode named '__overlay__' are
        assumed to be overlay fragments

(2) differs from looking for target properties because whatever
target variants we add in future, they're still likely to want an
__overlay__ node.  Or at worst, we can add a dummy __overlay__ node to
them.

I'd prefer to pick a single defining factor for the overlay fragments,
rather than a grab bag of options.

I think it's potentially dangerous using the presence of a particular
property to identify an overlay - what if the property name ("target",
say) was also the name of a label or property within one of the
fragments? It could then appear in the __symbols__ or __fixups__ node,
causing it to be treated as a potential overlay, but application will
then be halted with an error because it has no __overlay__ subnode.

If we make the presence of the __overlay__ subnode the decision point
(which is nicer anyway because it is a single test rather than two -
"target" and "target-path") then we avoid this hazard - __symbols__
and __fixups__ have no subnodes, and __local_fixups__ only has
top-level nodes as its subnodes, meaning __overlay__ will always be
one level further down.

Yes, I agree.

Indeed.

That last point is a little hairier than I'd like, but I think it's an
acceptably low risk in practice.

Ok, let's go for option 2 then.

You need to reverse the two if clauses.  If the len is not right, it's
not safe to dereference val.

Need to check for adj_val == (uint32_t)-1 as well, because it's an
unsigned comparison the test above won't catch it.

Just use an int.  I should probably think about introducing bool to libfdt.

Clearer to return 0 here, since ret must equal 0.

Except.. it's not mandatory for a node to have a phandle, so this just
looks wrong, anyway.

You might as well make fixup_val a u32 *, it should remove some casts
below.

This could lead to an unsafe dereference if fixup_len is not a
multiple of 4 (i.e. badly formatted fixup properyt).  Another reason
to use a u32 *.

As with the case you have below, a NOTFOUND returned by
getprop_by_offset() should return an INTERNAL error from here, since
it means this has been called with bad parameters.

strlen() isn't safe here, because you could have a badly formatted
fixup with no \0.

memchr() returns NULL if the separator is not found, so it's not safe
to dereference it without checking that first.

I wonder if it might be worth adding an error code specifically for
bad fixups.

You need to check sep against prop_len, for the case of a badly
formatted fixup with a : as the last character.

fragment is a bad name here - it's accurate on the initial call, but

I really dislike this silent ignoring of nodes if we can't figure out
the target.  If we add new target types in future, then the code
should noisily fail, not silently work incompletely.

Yeah.. I definitely think we should add a new error code for a badly
formatted overlay, and return that here if we got a NOTFOUND.

Hi David,

I'll fix your comments, but I have a bunch of questions, see below.

Hmmm, that's true. I have no idea how that can possibly work
though. It should break at the very first node, since the root node
will not have one...

I'll look into this.

Yes, but then, if it's poorly formatted, we might get unaligned
accesses too.. And we can't really use memcpy here, since we don't
know the size of the property at compile time.

Then maybe the safest would be to simply check that the length is a
multiple of 4, and return an error if it's not?

In current master tree, calling dtc with -@ will fail, since the
support to compile the overlays is not upstream yet (afaik).

This is just to make sur that the dtc binary is actually able to
compile something we can run our test on. Otherwise we would have
failed tests, while the code might or might not work, which seems bad.

No.  The flattening format guarantees that property values are 32-bit
aligned, so since the property consists of nothing but u32s they'll
all remain aligned.

The difference with applying the fixups is that the properties could
have formats that are a mixture of u32s and strings or other unaligned
data, so the locations to be fixed may not be aligned.

Yes, I think so.

Ah, yes.  I was mixing up the dtc patches with the libfdt patches.

Hrm.. it would be nice if the libfdt testcases, or at least some of
the, didn't require the patched dtc.  It might be worth making
examples with manually constructed __symbols__ and __fixups__ for this
purpose.
