find-in-devicetree

Dependencies

Python packages:

• colorit (python3 -m pip install color-it)
• gitpython (python3 -m pip install gitpython)

Overview

find_in_devicetree is a python script that recursively "crawls" the includes of a .dts/.dtsi file searching for one or more regular expression(s) (regex / regexp) and returns its findings explicitly showing the files where the regex(s) was(were) found and in which lines.

Usage example

$ # Be sure to be inside the root path of a Linux Kernel source code repository
$ cd linux-toradex
$ # Now we can search for any regexp string in a devicetree set of files by targetting a .dts or a .dtsi file
$ find-in-dt arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mm-verdin-wifi-dev.dts iomuxc\s*[:-]
