Arch maintainers, please ack/review patches.

This is a resend of a series from Frank last year[1]. I worked in Rob's
review comments to unconditionally call unflatten_device_tree() and
fixup/audit calls to of_have_populated_dt() so that behavior doesn't
change.

I need this series so I can add DT based tests in the clk framework.
Either I can merge it through the clk tree once everyone is happy, or
Rob can merge it through the DT tree and provide some branch so I can
base clk patches on it.

Changes from v3 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240202195909.3458162-1-sboyd@kernel.org):
 * Made OF_UNITTEST depend on OF_EARLY_FLATREE
 * Made OF_EARLY_FLATREE depend on absence of arches that don't call
   unflatten_device_tree()
 * Added of_ prefix to dtb_ prefixed KUnit tests
 * Picked up tags

Changes from v2 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240130004508.1700335-1-sboyd@kernel.org):
 * Reorder patches to have OF changes largely first
 * No longer modify initial_boot_params if ACPI=y
 * Put arm64 patch back to v1

Changes from v1 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240112200750.4062441-1-sboyd@kernel.org):
 * x86 patch included
 * arm64 knocks out initial dtb if acpi is in use
 * keep Kconfig hidden but def_bool enabled otherwise

Changes from Frank's series[1]:
 * Add a DTB loaded kunit test
 * Make of_have_populated_dt() return false if the DTB isn't from the
   bootloader
 * Architecture calls made unconditional so that a root node is always
   made

We want to populate an empty DT whenever CONFIG_OF is enabled so that
overlays can be applied and the DT unit tests can be run. Make
unflatten_and_copy_device_tree() stop printing a warning if the
'initial_boot_params' pointer is NULL. Instead, simply copy the dtb if
there is one and then unflatten it. If there isn't a DT to copy, then
the call to unflatten_device_tree() is largely a no-op, so nothing
really changes here.

From: Frank Rowand <frowand.list@gmail.com>

When enabling CONFIG_OF on a platform where 'of_root' is not populated
by firmware, we end up without a root node. In order to apply overlays
and create subnodes of the root node, we need one. Create this root node
by unflattening an empty builtin dtb.

If firmware provides a flattened device tree (FDT) then the FDT is
unflattened via setup_arch(). Otherwise, the call to
unflatten(_and_copy)?_device_tree() will create an empty root node.

We make of_have_populated_dt() return true only if the DTB was loaded by
firmware so that existing callers don't change behavior after this
patch. The call in the of platform code is removed because it prevents
overlays from creating platform devices when the empty root node is
used.

Call this function unconditionally so that we can populate an empty DTB
on platforms that don't boot with a command line provided DTB.  There's
no harm in calling unflatten_device_tree() unconditionally. If there
isn't a valid initial_boot_params dtb then unflatten_device_tree()
returns early.

Call this function unconditionally so that we can populate an empty DTB
on platforms that don't boot with a firmware provided or builtin DTB.
When ACPI is in use, unflatten_device_tree() ignores the
'initial_boot_params' pointer so the live DT on those systems won't be
whatever that's pointing to. Similarly, when kexec copies the DT data
the previous kernel to the new one on ACPI systems,
of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() will ignore the live DT (the empty root
one) and copy the 'initial_boot_params' data.

From: Frank Rowand <frowand.list@gmail.com>

unflatten_device_tree() now ensures that the 'of_root' node is populated
with the root of a default empty devicetree. Remove the unittest code
that created 'of_root' if it was missing. Verify that 'of_root' is valid
before attempting to attach the testcase-data subtree. Remove the
unittest code that unflattens the unittest overlay base if architecture
is UML because that is always done now.

Add a KUnit test that confirms a DTB has been loaded, i.e. there is a
root node, and that the of_have_populated_dt() API works properly. We
skip the test when CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATREE=n because in that case we
know architecture code hasn't called unflatten_(and_copy_)?device_tree()
which would populate some sort of root node.

Mark had strong pretty strong objections to this in version one:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZaZtbU9hre3YhZam@FVFF77S0Q05N/

and this patch looks the same now as it did then. Did something else
change?

Yes, that version unflattened the bootloader passed DT. Now within
unflatten_devicetree(), the bootloader DT is ignored if ACPI is
enabled and we unflatten an empty tree. That will prevent the kernel
getting 2 h/w descriptions if/when a platform does such a thing. Also,
kexec still uses the bootloader provided DT as before.

That avoids the main instance of my concern, and means that this'll boot
without issue, but IIUC this opens the door to dynamically instantiating DT
devices atop an ACPI base system, which I think in general is something that's
liable to cause more problems than it solves.

I understand that's desireable for the selftests, though I still don't believe
it's strictly necessary -- there are plenty of other things that only work if
the kernel is booted in a specific configuration.

Putting the selftests aside, why do we need to do this? Is there any other
reason to enable this?

Why add to the test matrix if we don't have to?

See my Plumbers talk...

Or in short, there's 3 main usecases:

- PCI FPGA card with devices instantiated in it 
- SoCs which expose their peripherals via a PCI endpoint.
- Injecting test devices with QEMU (testing, but not what this series 
  does. Jonathan Cameron's usecase)

In all cases, drivers already exist for the devices, and they often only 
support DT. DT overlays is the natural solution for this, and there's 
now kernel support for it (dynamically generating PCI DT nodes when they 
don't exist). The intent is to do the same thing on ACPI systems.

I don't see another solution other than 'go away, you're crazy'. There's 
ACPI overlays, but that's only a debug feature. Also, that would 
encourage more of the DT bindings in ACPI which I find worse than this 
mixture. There's swnodes, but that's just board files and platform_data 
2.0.

I share the concerns with mixing, but I don't see a better solution. The 
scope of what's possible is contained enough to avoid issues.

I tested on a x86 system.
My use case is 'SoCs which expose their peripherals via a PCI endpoint'
described by Rob.
Indeed, I have a Microchip Lan9662 board (the one mentioned by Rob in his
Plumbers talk) and the root DT node creation is obviously needed.

I have previously used Frank Rowan's patches [1] that did this DT root node
creation. This series perfectly replace them and the root DT node is successfully
created.

I've applied the series minus the arm64 patch. It's only needed if 
anyone cares about this working on arm64 ACPI systems. That can be delt 
with separately.
