 For-each macros
 ===============
 
+The :c:macro:`DT_FOREACH_CHILD` macro allows iterating over the ancestor node
+of a devicetree node.

 There is currently only one "generic" for-each macro,
 :c:func:`DT_FOREACH_CHILD`, which allows iterating over the children of a
 devicetree node.

+ * @brief Invokes @p fn for each ancestor of @p node_id
+ *
+ * The macro @p fn must take one argument which will be the identifier
+ * of an ancestor node to traverse from @p node_id towards the root node.
+ *
+ * Example devicetree fragment:
+ *
+ * @code{.dts}
+ *     n: node1 {
+ *             foobar = "foo1";
+ *
+ *             n_2: node2 {
+ *                        foobar = "foo2";
+ *
+ *                        n_3: node3 {
+ *                                   foobar = "foo3";
+ *                        };
+ *             };
+ *     };
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * Example usage:
+ *
+ * @code{.c}
+ *     #define GET_PROP(n) DT_PROP(n, foobar),
+ *
+ *     const char *ancestor_names[] = {
+ *         DT_FOREACH_ANCESTOR(DT_NODELABEL(n_3), GET_PROP)
+ *     };
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * This expands to:
+ *
+ * @code{.c}
+ *     const char *ancestor_names[] = {
+ *         "foo2", "foo1",
+ *     };
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * @param node_id node identifier
+ * @param fn macro to invoke
