Martí Bolívar 6e57b42758 doc: dts: revisit documentation
This is joint work with Kumar Gala (see signed-off-by).

Document the changes to the generated node macros in macros.bnf,
moving the old file to legacy-macros.bnf and putting it in its own
section.

The actual generated macros are now a low-level detail, so rewrite the
foregoing sections as examples in terms of the new <devicetree.h> APIs.

; dt-macro is the top level nonterminal. It defines the possible
; macros generated by gen_defines.py.
;
; A dt-macro starts with uppercase "DT_" followed by either:
;
; - a property-macro, generated for a particular node
; property
; - some other-macro, a catch-all for other types of macros,
; which contain either global information about the tree or
; are special cases
;
; This does *not* cover macros pulled out of DT via Kconfig,
; like CONFIG_SRAM_BASE_ADDRESS, etc.
dt-macro = %s"DT_" ( property-macro / other-macro )
; --------------------------------------------------------------------
; A property-macro is a sequence of:
;
; - node-id: a way to identify a node
; - property-id: a way to identify one of the node's properties
; - property-suf: an optional property-specific suffix
property-macro = node-id "_" property-id ["_" property-suf]
; A node-id is a way to refer to a node within the devicetree.
; There are a few different flavors.
node-id = compat-unit-id / inst-id / alias-id
compat-unit-id = [bus-id-part "_"] compat-id-part "_" unit-addr-id-part
inst-id = %s"INST_" 1*DIGIT "_" compat-id-part
alias-id = %s"ALIAS_" alias-id-part
; Various components of a property-macro are just c-idents,
; which are made of uppercase letters, numbers, and underscores.
;
; This is a problem, because it makes it possible for different nodes
; or properties in a devicetree to generate the same macro twice
; with different values.
bus-id-part = c-ident ; ID for information about a node's bus
compat-id-part = c-ident ; ID for a node's compatible
unit-addr-id-part = c-ident ; ID for a node's unit-address
alias-id-part = c-ident ; ID for an /aliases node property
property-id = c-ident ; ID for a node property -- this also
; covers special cases like "reg",
; "interrupts", and "cs-gpios" for now,
; as they all collide with non-special
; cases.
property-suf = c-ident ; a suffix for part of a property value,
; like an array index or a phandle
; specifier name converted to a c-ident
; --------------------------------------------------------------------
; An other-macro is a grab bag for everything that isn't a
; property-macro. It reuses some of the nonterminals (namely node-id
; and compat-id-part) defined above.
other-macro = existence-flag / bus-macro / flash-macro / chosen-macro
existence-flag = compat-existence-flag / inst-existence-flag
compat-flag = %s"COMPAT_" c-ident
inst-flag = %s"INST_" 1*DIGIT "_" c-ident
bus-macro = bus-name-macro / on-bus-macro
bus-name-macro = node-id %s"_BUS_NAME"
on-bus-macro = compat-id-part %s"_BUS_" bus-name
bus-name = c-ident ; a bus name ("i2c") to a DT C
; identifier ("I2C")
flash-macro = %s"FLASH_AREA_" node-label-ident "_" flash-suf
flash-suf = %s"ID" / %s"READ_ONLY" / (%s"OFFSET" ["_" 1*DIGIT]) /
(%s"SIZE" ["_" 1*DIGIT]) / %s"DEV"
; Macros generated from /chosen node properties.
chosen-macro = chosen-flash /
%s"CODE_PARTITION_OFFSET" / %s"CODE_PARTITION_SIZE" /
%s"CCM_BASE_ADDRESS" / %s"CCM_SIZE" /
%s"DTCM_BASE_ADDRESS" / %s"DTCM_SIZE" /
%s"IPC_SHM_BASE_ADDRESS" / %s"IPC_SHM_SIZE"
; These come from the /chosen/zephyr,flash property.

; Helper definitions.
; A c-ident is one or more:
; - uppercase letters (A-Z)
; - numbers (0-9)
; - underscores ("_")
;
; They are the result of converting names or combinations of names
; from devicetree to a valid component of a C identifier by
; uppercasing letters and converting non-alphanumeric characters to
; underscores.
c-ident = 1*( UPPER / DIGIT / "_" )
; a node's "label" property value, as an identifier
node-label-ident = c-ident
; "uppercase ASCII letter" turns out to be pretty annoying to specify
; in RFC-7405 syntax.
;
; This is just ASCII letters A (0x41) through Z (0x5A).
