[U-Boot] [PATCH] fdt: fix address cell count checking in fdt_translate_address()

Commit: dm: core: Enable optional use of fdt_translate_address()
Enables use of this function as default, but after this it's not possible to get dev address for the case in which: '#size-cells == 0'
This causes errors when getting address for some GPIOs, for which the '#size-cells' is set to 0.
Example error: '__of_translate_address: Bad cell count for gpx0'
Allowing for that case by modifying the macro 'OF_CHECK_COUNTS', (called from )__of_translate_address(), fixes the issue.
Now, this macro doesn't check, that '#size-cells' is greater than 0.
This is possible from the specification point of view, but I'm not sure that it doesn't introduce a regression for other configs.
Please test and share the results.
Tested-on: Odroid U3, Odroid X2, Odroid XU3, Sandbox.

Unfortunately no. I just stumbled over this problem with the translation of the "complex" ranges on the MVEBU platform. And noticed that we already have this functionality to translate the addresses the "right way".
I'm wondering how this problem with those GPIOs is handled in the kernel? I assume that it is working correctly there, right? Przemyslaw, could you perhaps check this and see, why its working there? And change / fix it in U-Boot accordingly?
Thanks, Stefan

Commit: dm: core: Enable optional use of fdt_translate_address()
Enables use of this function as default, but after this it's not possible to get dev address for the case in which: '#size-cells == 0'
This causes errors when getting address for some GPIOs, for which the '#size-cells' is set to 0.
Example error: '__of_translate_address: Bad cell count for gpx0'
Allowing for that case by modifying the macro 'OF_CHECK_COUNTS', (called from )__of_translate_address(), fixes the issue.
Now, this macro doesn't check, that '#size-cells' is greater than 0.
This is possible from the specification point of view, but I'm not sure that it doesn't introduce a regression for other configs.
Please test and share the results.
Tested-on: Odroid U3, Odroid X2, Odroid XU3, Sandbox.

This seems to conflict with the comment at the top of this function:
- Note: We consider that crossing any level with #size-cells == 0 to
mean
- that translation is impossible (that is we are not dealing with a
value
- that can be mapped to a cpu physical address). This is not really
specified
- that way, but this is traditionally the way IBM at least do things
What should we do here?
Is that commit acceptable? I would like send V2 with removing the above comment.
That's what I am worried about. Presumably the comment is accurate today and this check has some value. I was hoping Stefan might know.
Unfortunately no. I just stumbled over this problem with the translation of the "complex" ranges on the MVEBU platform. And noticed that we already have this functionality to translate the addresses the "right way".
I'm wondering how this problem with those GPIOs is handled in the kernel? I assume that it is working correctly there, right? Przemyslaw, could you perhaps check this and see, why its working there? And change / fix it in U-Boot accordingly?
Let's pick up this patch for now as a bug-fix. We can deal with this problem after the release.
Applied to u-boot-dm/master.
I'll post a revert after the release. It seems like you and Stephen are making good progress.

Why so fast with this one?
I think, that more proper for a temporary fix is my latest patch with #size-cells count checking only if ranges found in the parent node.
I will continue the discussion with Stephen.

Ok. It's hard to convince Stephen to accept such change, so I will send a patch with another solution - just bring back fdtdec_get_addr() for Exynos GPIO driver. And will revert this one within the patchset.

Let's pick up this patch for now as a bug-fix. We can deal with this problem after the release.
Applied to u-boot-dm/master.
I'll post a revert after the release. It seems like you and Stephen are making good progress.

Why so fast with this one?
I think, that more proper for a temporary fix is my latest patch with #size-cells count checking only if ranges found in the parent node.
I will continue the discussion with Stephen.
The release is scheduled for today, so we had to do something to fix the breakage.
Once you have a full solution figured out we can revert this patch and apply what you come up with.
Regards, Simon
Ok. It's hard to convince Stephen to accept such change, so I will send a patch with another solution - just bring back fdtdec_get_addr() for Exynos GPIO driver. And will revert this one within the patchset.
Please hold off on that. I'll accept your other patch but let's see if Stephen wants to write something first. Using fdtdec_get_addr() doesn't make sense although I fully understand your frustration. Let's give it a week.
Regards, Simon
Ah, too late:)
I have prepared patch, it's simple and doesn't touch the code - only device-tree. And this would be a proper approach, according to Stephen's comments.
Best regards,
