Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] of: populate of_root_node if not set (alternate)
Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2023 00:34:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230317053415.2254616-1-frowand.list@gmail.com> (raw)
This series is a different implementation to achieve the goals of
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220623105044.152832-1-clement.leger@bootlin.com
In order to apply overlays or create new nodes under the root node, the
kernel expects of_root to be set. On some system where a device-tree was
not provided by firmware (x86 for instance) if CONFIG_OF is enabled,
then we will end up with a null of_root. This series adds support to
create this root node using a builtin dtb and removes the manual
creation of the root node done in unittests.c.
Changes since version 3: (all)
- also tested on UML (previously only tested on arm)
Changes since version 3: (patch 1/2)
- refresh for 6.3-rc1
- unflatten_device_tree() - calculate of_fdt_crc32 if setting
initial_boot_params to __dtb_empty_root_begin so CRC check
in of_fdt_raw_init() will not fail
Changes since version 3: (patch 2/2)
- refresh for 6.3-rc1
- remove the CONFIG_UML case of populating the devicetree
- unittest_data_add() - move an EXPECT_BEGIN() to after an error
check that can result in an early return
Changes since version 2: (patch 1/2)
- change of __dtb_empty_root_* from "void *" to "uint8_t []"
Changes since version 1: (patch 1/2)
- refresh for 6.2-rc1
- update Signed-off-by
- fix typo in of_fdt.h: s/of_setup/setup_of
- unflatten_device_tree(): validate size in header field dtb_empty_root
that will be used to copy dtb_empty_root
- add Kconfig option to manually select CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE
Changes since version 1: (patch 2/2)
- refresh for 6.2-rc1
- update Signed-off-by
- fix formatting error (leading space) in patch comment
