2014-08-22kconfig: nconfig: fix multi-byte UTF handlingBrian Norris1-1/+2
Currently, Kconfig descriptions that use multi-byte UTF-8 characters (such as MTD_NAND_CAFE) will have their menu entries dropped from the 'make nconfig' ncurses menu, and all subsequent entries in the same window will be omitted. This seems to be due to the ncurses 'menu' library, which does not traditionally handle UTF-8 >8-bit characters properly. The ncursesw library ('w' is for "wide") is written to handle these UTF-8 characters, and is practically a drop-in replacement at the source level. Use it by default, if available.

2014-08-08x86: Add "make tinyconfig" to configure the tiniest possible kernelJosh Triplett1-0/+5
Since commit 5d2acfc7b974bbd3858b4dd3f2cdc6362dd8843a ("kconfig: make allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERT") in 3.15-rc1, "make allnoconfig" disables every possible config option. However, a few configuration options (CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, OPTIMIZE_INLINING) produce a smaller kernel when turned on, and a few choices exist (compression, highmem, allocator) for which a non-default option produces a smaller kernel. Add a "tinyconfig" option, which starts from allnoconfig and then sets these options to configure the tiniest possible kernel. This provides a better baseline for embedded systems or efforts to reduce kernel size. Signed-off-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
2014-08-08x86, platform, kconfig: move kvmconfig functionality to a helperJosh Triplett1-0/+14
The new mergeconfig helper makes it easier to add other partial configurations similar to kvmconfig. Architecture-independent portions of those partial configurations should go in kernel/configs/${name}.config, and architecture-dependent portions should go in arch/${arch}/configs/${name}.config. Based on a patch by Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@suse.com>. Originally-Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@suse.com> Modified to make the helper name more general than just virtualization, support architecture-dependent and architecture-independent partial configurations, move the helper and kvmconfig to scripts/kconfig/Makefile, and factor out more of the common file path.

2013-03-07kconfig: optionally use pkg-config to detect ncurses libsJustin Lecher1-1/+3
When building ncurses with --with-termlib several symbols get moved from libncurses.so to libtinfo.so. Thus when linking with libncurses.so, one additionally needs to link with libtinfo.so. The ncurses pkg-config module will be used to detect the necessary libs for linking. If not available the old way of directly specifying libs will be used.

2012-09-27kconfig: replace 'oldnoconfig' with 'olddefconfig', and keep the old name as ↵Adam Lee1-3/+9
an alias As 67d34a6a391369269a2e5dba8a5f42cc4cd50231 said, 'oldnoconfig' doesn't set new symbols to 'n', but instead sets it to their default values.

2012-07-26kconfig: Document oldnoconfig to what it really doesSteven Rostedt1-1/+1
The make target 'oldnoconfig' is a misnomer. It doesn't set new symbols to 'n', but instead sets it to their default values. Unfortunately, assuming that it actually did this, broke ktest in some of its tests. For example, the tests to create a minimum config and even a config bisect, depends on removing various configs and using oldnoconfig to get rid of other configs that may have depended on it. But because some configs that it was trying to disable, were in fact default enabled, this caused those configs to re-enable and corrupt the test. I thought about fixing oldnoconfig, but I'm afraid that people are already dependent on its current behavior. Instead, I'm just updating the documentation to state that it sets the new symbols to their default values and not to 'n'. Ideally, this would be called, 'olddefconfig' and we have an 'oldnoconfig' that actually disables the new symbols. But it's useless for me now. If it changed, ktest would need to be consistent between each version, and that would be to difficult to detect. I'll handle this issue with ktest with other means.

Commit 5c48b108 ("um: take arch/um/sys-x86 to arch/x86/um") broke the make target update-po-config, as its symlink trick (again) fails. (Previous breakage was fixed with commit bdc69ca4 ("kconfig: change update-po-config to reflect new layout of arch/um").) The new UML layout allows to drop the symlick trick entirely. And if, one day, another architecture supports UML too, that should now work without again breaking this make target.

2010-08-03kconfig: add savedefconfigSam Ravnborg1-1/+5
savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file named "defconfig". The config symbols are saved in the same order as they appear in the menu structure so it should be possible to map them to the relevant menus if desired. The implementation was tested against several minimal configs for arm which was created using brute-force. There was one regression related to default numbers which had their valid range further limited by another symbol. Sample: config FOO int "foo" default 4 config BAR int "bar" range 0 FOO If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3. But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4. This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK, and the fix was non-trivial. So it was documented in the code and left as is.
