Subject: [PATCH] of: add early boot allocation of of_find_node_by_phandle() cache

From: Frank Rowand <[email protected]>

The initial implementation of the of_find_node_by_phandle() cache
allocates the cache using kcalloc(). Add an early boot allocation
of the cache so it will be usable during early boot. Switch over
to the kcalloc() based cache once normal memory allocation
becomes available.

This patch is optional, to be added at Rob's discretion. The
extra complexity is not as much as I had feared, but the boot
speed up is also likely small.

There is a lot of code duplication in this function with
of_populate_phandle_cache. Would you think of taking out
common code or differ the function with extra bool parameter
to say 'early' or 'not early'.

Good observation, and normally yes. My first implementation of this
feature actually did what you suggest.

It turns out to be a bit more complicated than one might expect
because some of the code is marked __init. That results in
passing the memory allocation function as a parameter to
of_populate_phandle_cache(). See __unflatten_device_tree() for
an example of what this entails. Then the parts of
of_populate_cache() that need to be encapsulated in a 'if (!early)'
test are scattered throughout the function, so the test becomes
rather intrusive in terms of code readability.

In the end, the method I chose results in cleaner code for
of_populate_phandle_cache(), plus the memory used by
of_populate_cache_early() gets reclaimed after boot, since
it is marked __init. Both functions are relatively small and
the code common to both is unlikely to be modified, so I do
not see this causing a maintenance burden.
