405daa0081 dts: edtlib: Add helper for testing error messages and test _slice()
Add a helper function verify_error() to testedtlib.py that takes a DTS
source and verifies that it generates a particular EDTError.

Use it to test the hints that the previous commit added to errors
generated by _slice().

23a5b4963b dts: edtlib: Add 'type: path' for path references
Add binding support for a 'path' property type, for properties that are
assigned node paths. Usually, paths are assigned with path references
like 'foo = &label' (common in /chosen), but plain strings are accepted
as well as long as they're valid paths.

The 'path' type is mostly for completeness at this point, but might be
useful for https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/issues/21623.
The support is there already in dtlib.

5e55eda30e scripts: edtlib: Support nested nodes on buses
For the following devicetree, view 'nested' as being on the bus.
Previously, only 'node' was considered to be on the bus.

    some-bus {
    	compatible = "foo,bus-controller";
    	node {
    		nested {
    			compatible = "foo,device-on-bus";
    		};
    	};
    };

In practice, this means that a 'bus:' key in the binding for
'foo,bus-controller' will now get matched up to an 'on-bus:' key in the
binding for 'foo,device-on-bus'.

Change the meaning of Node.bus and add two new attributes Node.on_bus
and Node.bus_node, with these meanings:

    Node.bus:
      The bus type (as a string) if the node is a bus controller, and
      None otherwise

    Node.on_bus:
      The bus type (as a string) if the node appears on a bus, and None
      otherwise. The bus type is determined from the closest parent
      that's a bus controller.

    Node.bus_node:
      The node for the bus controller if the node appears on a bus, and
      None otherwise

It's a bit redundant to have both Node.bus_node and Node.on_bus, since
Node.on_bus is the same as Node.bus_node.bus, but Node.on_bus is pretty
handy to save some None checks.

Also update gen_defines.py to use Node.on_bus and Node.bus_node instead
of Node.parent wherever the code deals with buses.

379145ffce scripts: edtlib: Rename 'child-bus:'/'parent-bus:' to 'bus:'/'on-bus:'
I keep mixing these up, so that's probably a sign that the names are
bad. The root of the problem is that "parent-bus" can be read as both
"this is the parent bus" and as "the parent bus is this".

Use 'bus:' for the bus "provider" and 'on-bus:' for nodes on the bus
instead, which is less confusing.

Support the old keys for backwards compatibility, along with a
deprecation warning.

36b7ca44b8 scripts: edtlib.py: Deprecate 'title:'
Most bindings look something like this:

    title: Foo

    description: This binding provides a base representation of Foo

That kind of description doesn't add any useful information, as it's
just the title along with some copy-pasted text. I'm not sure what "base
representation" was supposed to mean originally either.

Many bindings also put something that's closer to a description in the
title, because it's not clear what's expected or how the title is used.
In reality, the title isn't used anywhere. 'description:' on the other
hand shows up as a comment in the generated header.

Deprecate 'title:' and generate a long informative warning if it shows
up in a binding.

Next commits will clean up the 'description:' strings (bringing them
closer to 'title:' in most cases) and remove 'title:' from all bindings.

72158858ac scripts: dtlib/edtlib: Make output consistent on Python 3.5-
Python 3.5 and earlier do not preserve dictionary insertion order when
iterating over dictionaries, and do not give the same order between
runs. This broke the dtlib and edtlib test suites and made the output
jump around randomly between runs. It also made device INST_<n> numbers
non-deterministic, which broke some code on Python 3.5 (though
hardcoding device instance numbers in the code might be a bit shaky).

Fix it by using collections.OrderedDict instead of plain dict wherever
order matters. This makes the output identical on all supported Python
versions. It also allows testdtlib.py and testedtlib.py to run in CI,
which uses Python 3.5.

eef8d19a27 dts: edtlib: Add simple generic support for pinctrl-<index> properties
(pinctrl-<index> is documented in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt in
Linux.)

Add a new Node.pin_states property, derived from any pinctrl-<index>
properties on the node. Node.pin_states holds a list of PinState
objects, where each PinState represents a single pinctrl-<index>
property.

For example, Node.pin_states will have two elements for the 'device'
node below:

	device {
		pinctrl-0 = <&state_0>;
		pinctrl-1 = <&state_1 &state_2>;
		pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
	};
	pincontroller {
		state_0: state_0 {
			...
		};
		state_1: state_1 {
			...
		};
		state_2: state_2 {
			...
		};
	};

Each PinState holds the list of configurations nodes in
PinState.conf_nodes. For the node above, node.pin_states[1].conf_nodes
will contain the pincontroller/state_1 and pincontroller/state_2 nodes,
for example.

The new functionality isn't used by gen_defines.py yet, so this change
is a no-op in itself, except it adds some error checking for
pinctrl-<index> properties.

If needed, support for #pinctrl-cells and 'pinmux' (not the same thing
as the 'pinmux' properties in Zephyr I think) could be added separately
later. Not sure what belongs in edtlib.py there yet.

ea956f4ac3 scripts: dts: add dependency information to edtlib
Device tree nodes have a dependency on their parents, as well as other
nodes.  To ensure driver instances are initialized in the proper we
need to identify these dependencies and construct a total order on
nodes that ensures no node is initialized before something it depends
on.

Add a Graph class that calculates a partial order on nodes, taking
into account the potential for cycles in the dependency graph.

When generating devicetree value headers calculate the dependency
graph and document the order and dependencies in the derived files.
In the future these dependencies may be expressed in binding data.

567c348167 scripts: dts: Generalize '#cells' to allow multiple sources
Implement a nice generalization suggested by Bobby Noelte.

Instead of having a generic #cells key in bindings, have source-specific
*-cells keys. Some examples:

    interrupt-cells:
        - irq
        - priority
        - flags

    gpio-cells:
        - pin
        - flags

    pwm-cells:
        - channel
        - period

This makes bindings a bit easier to read, and allows a node to be a
controller for many different 'phandle-array' properties.

The prefix before *-cells is derived from the property name, meaning
there's no fixed set of *-cells keys. This is possible because of the
earlier 'phandle-array' generalization.

The older #cells key is supported for backwards compatibility, but
generates a deprecation warning.

b97ed9e4b4 scripts: dts: Generalize handling of phandle-array types
Generating generic information for 'type: phandle-array' properties in
edtlib was difficult due to defining phandle-array as just a list of
phandles and numbers. To make sense of a phandle-array property like
'pwms', you have to know that #pwm-cells is expected to appear on
each referenced controller, and that the binding for the controller has
a #cells.

Because of this, handling of various 'type: phandle-array' properties
was previously hardcoded in edtlib and exposed through properties like
Node.pwms, instead of through the generic Node.props (though with a lot
of shared code).

In practice, it turns out that all 'type: phandle-array' properties in
Zephyr work exactly the same way: They all have names that end in -s,
the 's' is removed to derive the name of related properties, and they
all look up #cells in the binding for the controller, which gives names
to the data values.

Strengthen the definition of 'type: phandle-array' to mean a property
that works exactly like the existing phandle-array properties (which
also means requiring that the name ends in -s). This removes a ton of
hardcoding from edtlib and allows new 'type: phandle-array' properties
to be added without making any code changes.

If we ever need a property type that's a list of phandles and numbers
but that doesn't follow this scheme, then we could add a separate type
for it. We should check if the standard scheme is fine first though.

The only property type for which no information is generated is now
'compound'.

There's some inconsistency in how we generate identifiers for clocks
compared to other 'type: phandle-array' properties, so keep
special-casing them for now in gen_defines.py (see the comment in
write_clocks()).

This change also enabled a bunch of other simplifications, like reusing
the ControllerAndData class for interrupts.

Piggyback generalization of *-map properties so that they work for any
phandle-array properties. It's now possible to have things like
'io-channel-map', if you need to.

GPIOs, etc., e.g. <1 2> and <3 4> in

It's probably unnecessarily confusing to call it that. Call it 'data'
instead, which is a bit more straightforward.

73ac1466fb scripts: edtlib: Call nodes "nodes" instead of "devices"
edtlib.Device is just a devicetree node augmented with binding
information and some interpretation of properties. Rename it to
edtlib.Node to make that clearer. That also avoids calling things like
flash partition nodes "devices", which is a bit confusing.

I called it edtlib.Device instead of edtlib.Node originally to avoid
confusion with dtlib.Node, but in retrospect it probably makes it more
confusing on the whole. Something like edtlib.ENode might work too, but
it's probably overkill. Clients of edtlib.py only interact with
edtlib.Node, so the only potential for confusion is within edtlib.py
itself, and it doesn't get too bad there either.

Piggyback some documentation nits, and consistently write it
"devicetree" instead of "device tree", to match the spec.

110526ec0e scripts: edtlib: Add a Device.children attribute with child Devices
API oversight. This was meant to be there all along together with
Device.parent, for navigating the devicetree, but since a need for it
never came up in gen_defines.py, it got overlooked.

Devices are just devicetree nodes augmented with binding information and
some interpretation of devicetree properties. I wonder if the name
should be changed to something like edtlib.Node to make that clearer.
Calling something like a flash partition a "device" is a bit weird, as
Galak pointed out.

I think I went with Device originally to avoid confusion with
dtlib.Node, but since edtlib users don't directly interact with dtlib,
it might not be that confusing in practice.

Piggyback some documentation clarifications.

0b1ab4ab09 scripts: dts: Replace 'sub-node:' with more general 'child-binding:'
Deprecate 'sub-node:' and add a more general 'child-binding:' mechanism
to bindings. Keep supporting 'sub-node:', but print a deprecation
warning when it's used.

Like 'sub-node:', 'child-binding:' gives a binding to child nodes, but
the binding is required to be a complete binding, and is treated (and
checked) like a normal binding.

'child-binding:' can in turn contain another 'child-binding:', up to any
number of levels. This is automatic from treating it like a normal
binding, and from the code initializing parent Devices before child
Devices.

This lets nodes give bindings to grandchildren.

For example, take this devicetree fragment:

    parent {
            compatible = "foo";
            child-1 {
                    grandchild-1 {
                            ...
                    };
                    grandchild-2 {
                            ...
                    };
            };
            child-2 {
                    grandchild-3 {
                            ...
                    };
            };
    };

The binding for 'foo' could provide bindings for grandchild-1/2/3 like
this:

    compatible: "foo"

    # Binding for children
    child-binding:
        title: ...
        description: ...

        ...

        # Binding for grandchildren
        child-binding:
            title: ...
            description: ...

            properties:
                ...

Due to implementation issues with the old devicetree scripts, only two
levels of 'child-binding:' is supported for now. This limitation will go
away in Zephyr 2.2.

Piggyback shortening 'description:' and 'title:' in some bindings that
provide child bindings. This makes the generated header a bit neater.

I also considered putting more stuff under 'child' and 'parent', but
there's not much point when there's just a few keys I think. Top-level
stuff is cleaner and easier to read.

I'm planning to add a 'child-binding' key a bit later (like 'sub-node',
but more flexible), and child-* is consistent with that.

ff1f75293e dts: edtlib: Support giving missing properties a default value
For missing optional properties, it can be handy to generate a default
value instead of no value, to cut down on #ifdefs.

Allow a default value to be specified in the binding, via a new

Defaults are supported for both scalar and array types. YAML arrays are

'default:' also appears in json-schema, with the same meaning.

Include misc. sanity checks, like the 'default' value matching 'type'.

a0fceff1a2 scripts: dts: Simplify and improve 'compatible' matching
Instead of

    properties:
        compatible:
            constraint: "foo"

, just have

    compatible: "foo"

at the top level of the binding.

For backwards compatibility, the old 'properties: compatible: ...' form
is still accepted for now, and is treated the same as a single-element
'compatible:'.

The old syntax was inspired by dt-schema (though it isn't
dt-schema-compatible), which is in turn a thin wrapper around
json-schema (the idea is to transform .dts files into YAML and then
verify them).

Maybe the idea was to gradually switch the syntax over to dt-schema and
then be able to use unmodified dt-schema bindings, but dt-schema is
really a different kind of tool (a completely standalone linter), and
works very differently from our stuff (see schemas/dt-core.yaml in the
dt-schema repo to get an idea of just how differently).

Better to keep it simple.

This commit also piggybacks some clarifications to the binding template
re. '#cells:'.

d834b69bd9 scripts: dts: Improve syntax and code for including binding files
Have

    include: foo.dts
    include: [foo.dts, bar.dts]

instead of

    inherits:
        !include foo.dts

    inherits:
        !include [foo.dts, bar.dts]

This is a nicer and shorter and less cryptic syntax, and will make it
possible to get rid of the custom PyYAML constructor for '!include'
later.

'inherits: !include ...' is still supported for backwards compatibility
for now. Later on, I'm planning to mass-replace it, add a deprecation
warning if it's used, and document 'include:'. Then the '!include'
implementation can be removed a bit later.

'!include' has caused issues in the past (see the comment above the
add_constructor() call), gets iffy with multiple EDT instances, and
makes the code harder to follow.

I'm guessing '!include' might've been intended to be useful outside of
'inherits:' originally, but that's the only place where it's used. It's
undocumented that it's possible to put it elsewhere.

To implement the backwards compatibility, the code just transforms

    inherits:
        !include foo.dts

into

    inherits:
        - foo.dts

and treats 'inherits:' similarly to 'include:'. Previously, !include
inserted the contents of the included file instead.

Some more sanity checks for 'include:'/'inherits:' are included as well.

c42873fbe7 dts: dtlib/edtlib: Add phandle and phandle+nums array types
Add two new type-checked property types 'phandles' and 'phandle-array'
to edtlib.

'phandles' is for pure lists of phandles, with no other data, like

    foo = < &bar &baz ... >

'phandle-array' is for lists of phandles and (possibly) numbers, like

    foo = < &bar 1 2 &baz 3 4 ... >

dt-schema also has the 'phandle-array' type.

Property.val (in edtlib) is set to an array of Device objects for the
'phandles' type.

For the 'phandle-array' type, no Property object is created. This type
is only used for type checking.

Also refactor how types that do not create a Property object
('phandle-array' and 'compound') are handled. Have _prop_val() return
None for them.

The new types are implemented with two new TYPE_PHANDLES and
TYPE_PHANDLES_AND_NUMS types at the dtlib level. There is also a new
Property.to_nodes() functions for fetching the Nodes for an array of
phandles, with type checking.

06b746cc58 dts: dtlib/edtlib: Add a syntax-based type-checking system
Property type-checking has been pretty rudimentary until now, only
checking things like the length being divisible by 4 for 'type: array',
and strings being null-terminated. In particular, no checking was done
for 'type: uint8-array', letting

  jedec-id = < 0xc8 0x28 0x17 >;

slip through when

  jedec-id = [ 0xc8 0x28 0x17 ];

was intended.

Fix it by adding a syntax-based type checker:

  1. Add Property.type, which gives a high-level type for the property,
     derived from the markers added in the previous commit.

     This includes types like TYPE_EMPTY ('foo;'),
     TYPE_NUM ('foo = < 3 >;'), TYPE_BYTES ('foo = [ 01 02 ];'),
     TYPE_STRINGS ('foo = "bar", "baz"'),
     TYPE_PHANDLE ('foo = < &bar >;'), and TYPE_COMPOUND (everything not
     recognized).

     See the Property.type docstring in dtlib for more info.

  2. Use the high-level type in
     Property.to_num()/to_string()/to_node()/etc. to verify that the
     property was assigned in an expected way for the type.

     If the assignment looks bad, give a helpful error:

       expected property 'nums' on /foo/bar in some.dts to be assigned
       with 'nums = < (number) (number) ... >', not 'nums = "oops";'

Some other related changes are included as well:

  - There's a new Property.to_bytes() function that works like accessing
    Property.bytes, except with an added check for the value being
    assigned like 'foo = [ ... ]'.

    This function solves problems like the jedec-id one.

  - There's a new Property.to_path() function for fetching the
    referenced node for assignments like 'foo = &node;', with type
    checking. (Strings are accepted too, as long as they give the path
    to an existing node.)

    This function is used for /chosen and /aliases.

  - A new 'type: phandle' type can now be given in bindings, for
    properties that are assigned like 'foo = < &node >;'.

  - Property.__str__() now displays phandles and path references as they
    were written (e.g. '< &foo >' instead of '< 0x1 >', if the
    allocated phandle happened to be 1).

  - Property.to_num() and Property.to_nums() no longer take a 'length'
    parameter, because it makes no sense with the type checking.

  - The global dtlib.to_string() and dtlib.to_strings() functions were
    removed, because they're not that useful.

  - More tests were added, along with misc. minor cleanup in various
    places.

  - Probably other stuff I forgot.

The more strict type checking in dtlib indirectly makes some parts of
edtlib more strict as well (wherever Property.to_*() is used).

Fixes: #18131

fe2d858b5f scripts: dts: Add test for multiple binding directories
Add two bindings

    test-bindings/multidir.yaml
    test-bindings-2/multidir.yaml

and a new test-multidir.dts with two nodes that use them.

Verify that the two bindings were found by checking the
Device.binding_path attribute for the two device nodes.

62d5741476 dts: Add new DTS/binding parser
Add a new DTS/binding parser to scripts/dts/ for generating
generated_dts_board.conf and generated_dts_board_unfixed.h.

The old code is kept to generate some deprecated defines, using the
--deprecated-only flag. It will be removed later.

The new parser is implemented in three files in scripts/dts/:

dtlib.py:
  A low-level .dts parsing library. This is similar to devicetree.py in
  the old code, but is a general robust DTS parser that doesn't rely on
  preprocessing.

edtlib.py (e for extended):
  A library built on top of dtlib.py that brings together data from DTS
  files and bindings and creates Device instances with all the data for
  a device.

gen_defines.py:
  A script that uses edtlib.py to generate generated_dts_board.conf and
  generated_dts_board_unfixed.h. Corresponds to extract_dts_includes.py
  and the files in extract/ in the old code.

testdtlib.py:
  Test suite for dtlib.py. Can be run directly as a script.

testedtlib.py (uses test.dts and test-bindings/):
  Test suite for edtlib.py. Can be run directly as a script.

The test suites will be run automatically in CI.

The new code turns some things that were warnings (or not checked) in
the old code into errors, like missing properties that are specified
with 'category: required' in the binding for the node.

The code includes lots of documentation and tries to give helpful error
messages instead of Python errors.
