[U-Boot] [PATCH] fdtgrep: Copy with the /aliases node being last

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sun Apr 2 18:26:44 UTC 2017


With skeleton.dtsi being dropped it is more likely that the /aliases node
will be last in the device tree. Update fdtgrep to handle this.

+/**
+ * fdt_add_alias_regions() - Add regions covering the aliases that we want
+ *
+ * The /aliases node is not automatically included by fdtgrep unless the
+ * command-line arguments cause to be included (or not excluded). However
+ * aliases are special in that we generally want to include those which
+ * reference a node that fdtgrep includes.
+ *
+ * In fact we want to include only aliases for those nodes still included in
+ * the fdt, and drop the other aliases since they point to nodes that will not
+ * be present.
+ *
+ * This function scans the aliases and adds regions for those which we want
+ * to keep.
+ *
+ * @fdt: Device tree to scan
+ * @region: List of regions
+ * @count: Number of regions in the list so far (i.e. starting point for this
+ *	function)
+ * @max_regions: Maximum number of regions in @region list
+ * @info: Place to put the region state
+ * @return number of regions after processing, or -FDT_ERR_NOSPACE if we did
+ * not have enough room in the regions table for the regions we wanted to add.
