kconfig: merge_config: avoid false positive matches from comment lines

2018-11-11T14:04:51Z

The current SED_CONFIG_EXP could match to comment lines in config fragment files, especially when CONFIG_PREFIX_ is empty. For example, Buildroot uses empty prefixing; starting symbols with BR2_ is just convention. Make the sed expression more robust against false positives from comment lines. The new sed expression matches to only valid patterns. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Petr Vorel Reviewed-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind)

merge_config.sh: Allow to define config prefix

2018-11-01T15:15:26Z

with CONFIG_ environment variable. merge_config.sh uses CONFIG_ which is used in kernel and other projects. There are some projects which use kconfig with different prefixes (e.g. buildroot: BR2_ prefix). CONFIG_ variable is already used for this purpose in kconfig binary (scripts/kconfig/lkc.h), let's use the same rule for in merge_config.sh.

kconfig: do not require pkg-config on make {menu,n}config

2018-09-02T17:13:48Z

Meelis Roos reported a {menu,n}config regression: "I have libncurses devel package installed in the default system location (as do 99%+ on actual developers probably) and in this case, pkg-config is useless. pkg-config is needed only when libraries and headers are installed in non-default locations but it is bad to require installation of pkg-config on all the machines where make menuconfig would be possibly run." For {menu,n}config, do not use pkg-config if it is not installed. For {g,x}config, keep checking pkg-config since we really rely on it for finding the installation paths of the required packages.

kconfig: remove a spurious self-assignment

2018-08-31T16:21:42Z

The self assignment was probably introduced by an automated code refactoring in commit 694c49a7c01c ("kconfig: drop localization support"). The issue was identified by a self-assign warning when running make menuconfig with clang.

kconfig: suppress "configuration written to .config" for syncconfig

2018-08-22T14:21:41Z

The top-level Makefile invokes "make syncconfig" when necessary. Then, Kconfig displays the following message when .config is updated. # # configuration written to .config # It is distracting because "make syncconfig" happens during the build stage, and does nothing important in most cases.

kconfig: improve the recursive dependency report

2018-08-22T14:21:39Z

This commit improves the messages of the recursive dependency. Currently, sym->dir_dep.expr is not checked. Hence, any dependency in property visibility is regarded as the dependency of the symbol. [Test Code 1] config A bool "a" depends on B config B bool "b" depends on A [Test Code 2] config A bool "a" if B config B bool "b" depends on A For both cases above, the same message is displayed: symbol B depends on A symbol A depends on B This commit changes the message for the latter, like this: symbol B depends on A symbol A prompt is visible depending on B Also, 'select' and 'imply' are distinguished.

kconfig: report recursive dependency involving 'imply'

2018-08-22T14:21:39Z

Currently, Kconfig does not complain about the recursive dependency where 'imply' keywords are involved. [Test Code] config A bool "a" config B bool "b" imply A depends on A In the code above, Kconfig cannot calculate the symbol values correctly due to the circular dependency. For example, allyesconfig followed by syncconfig results in an odd behavior because CONFIG_B becomes visible in syncconfig. $ make allyesconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --allyesconfig Kconfig # # configuration written to .config # $ cat .config # # Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT. # Main menu # CONFIG_A=y $ make syncconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * Main menu * a (A) [Y/n/?] y b (B) [N/y/?] (NEW) To detect this correctly, sym_check_expr_deps() should recurse to not only sym->rev_dep.expr but also sym->implied.expr . At this moment, sym_check_print_recursive() cannot distinguish 'select' and 'imply' since it does not know the precise context where the recursive dependency has been hit. This will be solved by the next commit. In fact, even the document and the unit-test are confused. Using 'imply' does not solve recursive dependency since 'imply' addresses the unmet direct dependency, which 'select' could cause. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Tested-by: Dirk Gouders
