+Subject: [PATCH] fdtoverlay: Prevent overlays from modifying phandle
+ properties
+To: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>,
+ Jon Loeliger <jdl@jdl.com>,
+ devicetree-compiler@vger.kernel.org
+Cc: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>,

+
+When applying an overlay fragment, we should take care not to overwrite
+an existing phandle property of the target node as this could break
+references to the target node elsewhere in the base dtb.
+
+In addition to potentially breaking references within the resulting fdt,
+if the overlay is built with symbols enabled (`-@` option to dtc) then
+fdtoverlay will be unable to merge the overlay with a base dtb file.
+
+A new test case is added to check how fdtoverlay handles this case.
+Attempting to apply this test overlay without the fix in this patch
+results in the following output:
+
+ input = tests/overlay_base_ref.test.dtb
+ output = tests/overlay_overlay_ref.fdtoverlay.dtb
+ overlay[0] = tests/overlay_overlay_ref.test.dtb
+
+ Failed to apply 'tests/overlay_overlay_ref.test.dtb': FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND
+
+In this test case the __overlay__ node in question does not explicitly
+contain a phandle property in the dts file, the phandle is added during
+compilation as it is referenced by another node within the overlay dts.
+
+This failure occurs due to a sequence of events in the functions called
+by fdt_overlay_apply():
+
+1) In overlay_fixup_phandles(), the target of the overlay fragment is
+ looked up and the target property is set to the phandle of the target
+ node.
+
+2) In overlay_merge(), the target node is looked up by phandle via
+ overlay_get_target(). As the __overlay__ node in this test case
+ itself has a phandle property, the phandle of the target node is
+ modified.
+
+3) In overlay_symbol_update(), the target node is again looked up by
+ phandle via overlay_get_target(). But this time the target node
+ cannot be found as its phandle property was modified.
+
+The fix for this issue is to skip modification of the phandle property
+of the target node in step (2) of the above sequence. If the target node
+doesn't already contain a phandle property, we can add one without risk.
