2017-06-09Reduce call stack memory usage in ufdt_node_destruct()SzuWei Lin
Revise the recursive function calls to be a loop in function ufdt_node_destruct(), to reduce the call stack memory usage. Bug: 62473375 Test: tests/run_tests.sh Change-Id: Ifec5d655407aded115115be7d8196bfad97623d9
2017-04-25libufdt: reduce the number of malloc/free callingSzuWei Lin
The performance of some bootloader malloc/free implementation isn't optimized, but libufdt calls huge number of malloc/free to build a real tree data structure. The patch adds an ufdt_node_pool to reduce the number of malloc/free. ufdt_node_pool asks a larger memory block in each time, and distributes the memory into several ufdt_node (ufdt_node_fdt_prop or ufdt_node_fdt_node). libufdt doesn't need to call malloc() to allocate memory until out of larger memory block. The setting of this patch is 1024 nodes in each memory block, so it can reduce ~1023/1024 malloc/free calling times after the patch is applied.

2017-04-13Avoid to re-generate string table from ufdt to fdtSzuWei Lin
String table contains the strings of all property name in a fdt. The ufdt_apply_overlay() converts two dtbs from fdt to ufdt, overlays, and converts merged ufdt to fdt. These operations shouldn't create new peroperty names, so we can just re-use the string tables in original dtbs, and just copy them into merged fdt. This solution can enhance a lot of performance for device tree overlaying. To avoid the error that some users could use string offset in string table, the solution also give a same string offset for the name properties by ufdt_prop_dict; Futher, the patch also removed unused header files after changing algorithm.

2017-02-21Fix the libufdt overlay node orderSzuWei Lin
libufdt could reversed the node order during overlaying. However, the libfdt overlay in dtc doesn't promise the node order. But looks there are some implementation of kernel drivers depend on the order in DTS. The patch keeps the DTB/DTBO node order during libufdt overlaying. Notes that the node order merged by libufdt could not match the result of libfdt. Bug: 35429321 Test: run test scripts (see libufdt/tests/README) Change-Id: I7209ebfaa21d6640d547b029ea0f0edf6e58fca1
2016-12-21libufdt: device tree overlay via unflattening FDTLi Chen
The original version of libdtoverlay is slow in searching for particular nodes and adding subnodes/properties due to the operations on flattened device tree (FDT). `libufdt` builds a real tree structure (named ufdt -- unflattned device tree) from FDT. In the real tree, we can perform certain operations (e.g., merge 2 subtrees, search for a node by path) in almost optimal time complexity with acceptable additional memory usage. With libufdt, we improve the merging of two dtb files from O(N^2) to O(N), where N is the number of nodes in the tree. Bug: 30800619 Test: run test scripts (see libufdt/tests/README) Test: manually ported libufdt into a bootloader, checked it can merge a base dtb and a dtbo to generate a final dtb to boot the device Change-Id: I1ff886bb8a62bad1451edcd7c4fe5cb48b7a034a
