.Fn OF_xref_from_device "device_t dev"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Pp
When a device tree node references another node, the driver may
need to get a device_t instance associated with the referenced node.
For instance, an Ethernet driver accessing a PHY device.
To make this possible, the kernel maintains a table that
maps effective handles to device_t instances.
.Pp
.Fn OF_device_register_xref
adds a map entry from the effective phandle
.Fa xref
to device
.Fa dev .
If a mapping entry for
.Fa xref
already exists, it is replaced with the new one.
The function always returns 0.
.Pp
.Fn OF_device_from_xref
returns a device_t instance associated with the effective phandle
.Fa xref .
If no such mapping exists, the function returns NULL.
.Pp
.Fn OF_xref_from_device
returns the effective phandle associated with the device
.Fa dev .
If no such mapping exists, the function returns 0.
.Sh EXAMPLES
.Bd -literal

{
phandle_t node;
/* PHY node is referenced from eth device, register it */

.In dev/ofw/ofw_bus_subr.h

.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Pp
.Fn OF_finddevice
returns the phandle for the node specified by the
.Fa path .
Returns -1 if the path cannot be found in the tree.
.Sh CAVEATS
The return value should only be checked with equality
operators (equal to, not equal to) and not relational comparison
(less than, greater than ).
There is a discrepancy between IEEE 1275 standard and
.Fx Ns 's
internal representation of a phandle: IEEE 1275
requires the return value of this function to be -1 if the path
is not found.
But phandle_t is an unsigned type, so it cannot
be relationally compared with -1 or 0, this comparison
is always true or always false.
.Sh EXAMPLES
.Bd -literal
phandle_t root, i2c;
root = OF_finddevice("/");
i2c = OF_finddevice("/soc/axi/i2c@a0e0000");

.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Pp
Device nodes can have associated properties.
Properties consist of a name and a value.
A name is a human-readable string from 1 to 31 characters long.
A value is an array of zero or more bytes that encode certain
information.
The meaning of that bytes depends on how drivers interpret them.
Properties can encode byte arrays, text strings, unsigned 32-bit
values or any combination of these types.
.Pp
Property with a zero-length value usually represents boolean
information.
If the property is present, it signifies true, otherwise false.
.Pp
A byte array is encoded as a sequence of bytes and represents
values like MAC addresses.
.Pp
A text string is a sequence of n printable characters.
It is encoded as a byte array of length n + 1 bytes with
characters represented as bytes plus a terminating null character.
.Pp
Unsigned 32-bit values, also sometimes called cells, are
encoded as a sequence of 4 bytes in big-endian order.
.Pp
.Fn OF_getproplen
returns either the length of the value associated with the property
.Fa propname
in the node identified by
.Fa node ,
or 0 if the property exists but has no associated value.
If
.Fa propname
does not exist, -1 is returned.
.Pp
.Fn OF_getprop
copies a maximum of
.Fa len
bytes from the value associated with the property
.Fa propname
of the device node
.Fa node
into the memory specified by
.Fa buf .
Returns the actual size of the value or -1 if the
property does not exist.
.Pp
.Fn OF_getencprop
copies a maximum of
.Fa len
bytes into memory specified by
.Fa buf ,
then converts cell values from big-endian to host byte order.
Returns the actual size of the value in bytes, or -1
if the property does not exist.
.Fa len
must be a multiple of 4.
.Pp
.Fn OF_hasprop
returns 1 if the device node
.Fa node
has a property specified by
.Fa propname ,
and zero if the property does not exist.
.Pp
.Fn OF_searchprop
recursively looks for the property specified by
.Fa propname
starting with the device node
.Fa node
followed by the parent node and up to the root node.
If the property is found, the function copies a maximum of
.Fa len
bytes of the value associated with the property
into the memory specified by
.Fa buf .
Returns the actual size in bytes of the value,
or -1 if the property does not exist.
.Pp
.Fn OF_searchencprop
recursively looks for the property specified by
.Fa propname
starting with the device node
.Fa node
followed by the parent node and up to the root node.
If the property is found, the function copies a maximum of
.Fa len
bytes of the value associated with the property
into the memory specified by
.Fa buf ,
then converts cell values from big-endian to host byte order.
Returns the actual size in bytes of the value,
or -1 if the property does not exist.
.Pp
.Fn OF_getprop_alloc
allocates memory large enough to hold the
value associated with the property
.Fa propname
of the device node
.Fa node
and copies the value into the newly allocated memory region.
Returns the actual size of the value and stores
the address of the allocated memory in
.Fa *buf .
If the property has a zero-sized value
.Fa *buf
is set NULL.
Returns -1 if the property does not exist or
memory allocation failed.
Allocated memory should be released when no longer required
by calling
.Fn OF_prop_free .
The function might sleep when allocating memory.
.Pp
.Fn OF_getencprop_alloc
allocates enough memory to hold the
value associated with the property
.Fa propname
of the device node
.Fa node ,
copies the value into the newly allocated memory region, and
then converts cell values from big-endian to host byte
order.
The actual size of the value is returned and the
address of allocated memory is stored in
.Fa *buf .
If the property has zero-length value,
.Fa *buf
is set to NULL.
Returns -1 if the property does not exist or
memory allocation failed.
Allocated memory should be released when no longer required
by calling
.Fn OF_prop_free .
The function might sleep when allocating memory.
.Pp
.Fn OF_prop_free
releases memory at
.Fa buf
that was allocated by
.Fn OF_getprop_alloc
or
.Fn OF_getencprop_alloc .
.Pp
.Fn OF_nextprop
copies a maximum of
.Fa size
bytes of the name of the property following the
.Fa propname
property into
.Fa buf .
If
.Fa propname
is NULL, the function copies the name of the first property of the
device node
.Fa node .
.Fn OF_nextprop
returns -1 if
.Fa propname
is invalid or there is an internal error, 0 if there are no more
properties after
.Fa propname ,
or 1 otherwise.
.Pp
.Fn OF_setprop
sets the value of the property
.Fa propname
in the device node
.Fa node
to the value beginning at the address specified by
.Fa buf
and running for
.Fa len
bytes.
If the property does not exist, the function tries to create
it.
.Fn OF_setprop
returns the actual size of the new value, or -1 if the
property value cannot be changed or the new property
cannot be created.

.Sh NAME

.Nd convert between kernel phandle and effective phandle
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In dev/ofw/ofw_bus.h
.In dev/ofw/ofw_bus_subr.h
.Ft phandle_t
.Fn OF_node_from_xref "phandle_t xref"
.Ft phandle_t
.Fn OF_xref_from_node "phandle_t node"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Pp
Some OpenFirmware implementations (FDT, IBM) have a concept
of effective phandle or xrefs.
They are used to cross-reference device tree nodes.
For instance, a framebuffer controller may refer to a GPIO
controller and pin that controls the backlight.
In this example, the GPIO node would have a cell (32-bit integer)
property with a reserved name like "phandle" or "linux,phandle"
whose value uniquely identifies the node.
The actual name depends on the implementation.
The framebuffer node would have a property with the name
described by device bindings (device-specific set of properties).
It can be a cell property or a combined property with one part
of it being a cell.
The value of the framebuffer node's property would be the same
as the value of the GPIO "phandle" property so it can be said
that the framebuffer node refers to the GPIO node.
The kernel uses internal logic to assign unique identifiers
to the device tree nodes, and these values do not match
the values of "phandle" properties.
.Fn OF_node_from_xref
and
.Fn OF_xref_from_node
are used to perform conversion between these two kinds of node
identifiers.
.Pp
.Fn OF_node_from_xref
returns the kernel phandle for the effective phandle
.Fa xref .
If one cannot be found or the OpenFirmware implementation
does not support effective phandles, the function returns
the input value.
.Pp
.Fn OF_xref_from_xref
returns the effective phandle for the kernel phandle
.Fa xref .
If one cannot be found or the OpenFirmware implementation
does not support effective phandles, the function returns
the input value.
