2013-02-19kbuild: Fix missing '\n' for NEW symbols in yes "" | make oldconfig >conf.newBen Hutchings1-1/+6
According to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig.txt, the commands: yes "" | make oldconfig >conf.new grep "(NEW)" conf.new should list the new config symbols with their default values. However, currently there is no line break after each new symbol. When kconfig is interactive the user will type a new-line at this point, but when non-interactive kconfig must print it.

2012-05-07kbuild: all{no,yes,mod,def,rand}config only read files when instructed to.Eric W. Biederman1-1/+3
Prevent subtle surprises to both people working on the kconfig code and people using make allnoconfig allyesconfig allmoconfig and randconfig by only attempting to read a config file if KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set. Common sense suggests attempting to read the extra config files does not make sense unless requested. The documentation says the code won't attempt to read the extra config files unless requested. Current usage does not appear to include people depending on the code reading the config files without the variable being set So do the simple thing and stop reading config files when passed all{no,yes,mod,def,rand}config unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG environment variable is set.

- Only try to read the file specified if KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG is set to something other than the empty string or "1". - Don't use stat to check the name passed to conf_read_simple so that zconf_fopen can find the file in the current directory or in SRCTREE removing a extremely source of confusing failure, where KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG was not interpreted with respect to the directory make was called in. - If conf_read_simple fails complain clearly and stop processing.

2011-04-24kconfig: Avoid buffer underrun in choice inputBen Hutchings1-1/+1
Commit 40aee729b350 ('kconfig: fix default value for choice input') fixed some cases where kconfig would select the wrong option from a choice with a single valid option and thus enter an infinite loop. However, this broke the test for user input of the form 'N?', because when kconfig selects the single valid option the input is zero-length and the test will read the byte before the input buffer. If this happens to contain '?' (as it will in a mips build on Debian unstable today) then kconfig again enters an infinite loop.

2010-08-03kconfig: add savedefconfigSam Ravnborg1-0/+14
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.

2010-08-03kconfig: use long options in confSam Ravnborg1-86/+75
The list of options supported by conf is growing and their abbreviation did not resemble anything usefull. So drop the single letter options in favour of long options. The long options are named equal to what we know from the make target. The internal implmentation was changed to match this, resulting in much more readable code.

2009-03-15kconfig: improve seed in randconfigIngo Molnar1-1/+15
'make randconfig' uses glibc's rand function, and the seed of that PRNG is set via: srand(time(NULL)); But 'time()' only increases once every second - freezing the randconfig result within a single second. My Nehalem testbox does randconfig much faster than 1 second and i have a few scripts that do 'randconfig until condition X' loops. Those scripts currently waste a lot of CPU time due to randconfig changing its seed only once per second currently. Change the seed to be micrseconds based. (I checked the statistical spread of the seed - the now.tv_sec*now.tv_usec multiplication there further improves it.)

Switch from doing our own parsing of command line arguments to using getopt(3) to do it. Aside from simplifying things, this allows us to specify multiple arguments; the old code could only accept two arguments (input_mode and kconfig name). Note some subtle changes: - The argument '-?' is no longer supported. - '-h' is not treated as an error, so output goes to stdout, and we exit with '0'. - There is no compatibility checking amongst arguments; the last option will simply override earlier options. For example, 'conf -n -y foo' is perfectly valid now (input_mode will be set_yes). Previously, that would have been an error ("can't find file -y").

Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in all.config. For a fix the diffstat is nice: 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-) The patch reverts these commits: - 0f855aa64b3f63d35a891510cf7db932a435c116 ("kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable") - 2a113281f5cd2febbab21a93c8943f8d3eece4d3 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets") Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were not needed. With this patch we have following behaviour: # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...] option \ host arch | 32bit | 64bit ===================================================== ./. | 32bit | 64bit ARCH=x86 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=i386 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=x86_64 | 64bit | 64bit The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes precedence over the configuration. So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the other way around. This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no suprises here. make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit and 64-bit using menuconfig.

2006-12-13[PATCH] kconfig: new function "bool conf_get_changed(void)"Karsten Wiese1-1/+1
Run "make xconfig" on a freshly untarred kernel-tree. Look at the floppy disk icon of the qt application, that has just started: Its in a normal, active state. Mouse click on it: .config is being saved. This patch series changes things so taht after the mouse click on the floppy disk icon, the icon is greyed out. If you mouse click on it now, nothing happens. If you change some CONFIG_*, the floppy disk icon returns to "active state", that is, if you mouse click it now, .config is written. This patch: Returns sym_change_count to reflect the .config's change state. All read only accesses of sym_change_count are replaced by calls to conf_get_changed() . mconfig.c is manipulated to ask for saving only when conf_get_changed() returned true.

If the beginning Kconfig file is missing, config segfaults so it might as well exit after the error message. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Cc: Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
