[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: kbuild: Pass DT_SCHEMA_FILES to dt-validate

[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: kbuild: Pass DT_SCHEMA_FILES to dt-validate

[Rob Herring]

In preparation for supporting validation of DTB files, the full
processed schema will always be needed in order to extract type
information from it. Therefore, the processed schema containing only
what DT_SCHEMA_FILES specifies won't work. Instead, dt-validate has
gained an option, -l or --limit, to specify which schema(s) to use for
validation.

As the command line option is new, we the minimum dtschema version must be
updated.

This doesn't work as-is, as that version hasn't been tagged yet ;-)

Thanks, confirmed.

With this series applied, the various salvator-xs DTS files are now
throwing up:

    sata: size (19) error for type phandle
    backlight: size (11) error for type phandle

I tried to find out what caused that, but couldn't find it.
Do you have a clue?
Thanks!

Those come from the code decoding the properties[1]. Unfortunately, I 
haven't come up with a prettier way to report those with the filename. I 
may just remove it because if decoding the property fails, we'll get 
schema errors later on anyways.

But I don't see any 'sata' properties in the DTS files and 'backlight' 
is a node. Are you building with '-@'? I probably need to skip 
__symbols__ nodes. The overlay side is handled because examples are 
built as overlays (to allow unresolved phandles).

Yes I am. Dropping the "-@" fixes the issue.

This could now use := instead of ?=

Apart from the fact that 2022.3 hasn't been tagged yet as pointed out by
Geert, this looks fine to me (but I'm no expert in this area).

Yes, though I think it is possible we may still want to override it. 
Other than debugging perhaps, I don't have an immediate reason.

[PATCH 2/2] dt-bindings: kbuild: Use DTB files for validation

[Rob Herring]

Switch the DT validation to use DTB files directly instead of a DTS to
YAML conversion.

The original motivation for supporting validation on DTB files was to
enable running validation on a running system (e.g. 'dt-validate
/sys/firmware/fdt') or other cases where the original source DTS is not
available.

The YAML format was not without issues. Using DTBs with the schema type
information solves some of those problems. The YAML format relies on the
DTS source level information including bracketing of properties, size
directives, and phandle tags all of which are lost in a DTB file. While
standardizing the bracketing is a good thing, it does cause a lot of
extra warnings and churn to fix them.

Another issue has been signed types are not validated correctly as sign
information is not propagated to YAML. Using the schema type information
allows for proper handling of signed types. YAML also can't represent
the full range of 64-bit integers as numbers are stored as floats by
most/all parsers.

The DTB validation works by decoding property values using the type
information in the schemas themselves. The main corner case this does
not work for is matrix types where neither dimension is fixed. For
now, checking the dimensions in these cases are skipped.

It does indeed, but it's a bit sad to let that feature go :-S

It's nice to drop the dependency on libyaml though, and the ability to
validate a DTB is nice too, so I think it's worth it.

I agree, but I think that checking is better served with a DTS linter.

Thanks for your patch!

While investigating why a newly added device node to DTS was not
instantiated as a platform device, I discovered an issue with this
patch: "make dtbs" no longer rebuilds DTB files that need a rebuild.

How to reproduce:

    $ git checkout next-20220307
    # apply this series and its dependency:
    # dt-bindings: kbuild: Support partial matches with DT_SCHEMA_FILES
    # dt-bindings: kbuild: Pass DT_SCHEMA_FILES to dt-validate
    # dt-bindings: kbuild: Use DTB files for validation
    $ make ARCH=arm shmobile_defconfig
    $ make ARCH=arm dtbs
    $ touch arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791.dtsi
    $ make ARCH=arm dtbs
    # The above command does NOT cause:
    # DTC     arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791-koelsch.dtb
    # DTC     arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791-porter.dtb

I don't see anything wrong with this patch at first sight, though.

Was this a clean tree?

I think I reproduced it, but then couldn't... But then after a 'make 
clean', 'make dtbs' would error out. I think the issue in both cases was 
processed-schema.json always a dependency when it should be conditional 
on 'dtbs_check'. The patch below fixes that. Can you give it a try too.

I first saw the issue in my normal work tree.
However, I cannot reproduce it in that tree anymore :-(

I can reproduce it in the clean tree after following the instructions
above, and your patch fixes that, so
