H A Dfdt_ro.c05a22ba096fb996bb69ab020a8d08aafac2c28ba Thu Nov 26 04:37:13 UTC 2009 David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Support ePAPR compliant phandle properties

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.
