1482834971 kconfig: fix make oldconfig
Linus wrote:
 This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it
 used to be. In a very annoying way.

 I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4c0
 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that
 thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but
 actively breaks them.

The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident.  Fix
this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing
to ask about.

7cf3d73b43 kconfig: add savedefconfig
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.

d595cea624 kconfig: print more info when we see a recursive dependency
Consider following kconfig file:

config TEST1
	bool "test 1"
	depends on TEST2

config TEST2
	bool "test 2"
	depends on TEST1

Previously kconfig would report:

foo:6:error: found recursive dependency: TEST2 -> TEST1 -> TEST2

With the following patch kconfig reports:
foo:5:error: recursive dependency detected!
foo:5:  symbol TEST2 depends on TEST1
foo:1:  symbol TEST1 depends on TEST2

Note that we now report where the offending symbols are defined.
This can be a great help for complex situations involving
several files.

Patch is originally from Roman Zippel with a few adjustments by Sam.

59e89e3ddf kconfig: save location of config symbols
When we add a new config symbol save the file/line
so we later can refer to their location.

The information is saved as a property to a config symbol
because we may have multiple definitions of the same symbol.

This has the side-effect that a symbol always has
at least one property.

861b4ea4cc kconfig: change nonint_oldconfig to listnewconfig
Rename to a name that better match the other kconfig targets.

listnewconfig shall read as:

- list new options compared to current configuration

New options are now written to stdout so one can redirect the output.

Do not exit with an error code if there is new options.

These are feature changes compared to the original
nonint_oldconfig - but as this feature has not yet been in a
released kernel it should not matter.

It is still possible to do:

make listnewconfig
lookup new config options in Kconfig*
edit .config

4062f1a4c0 kconfig: use long options in conf
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.

Support for short options is dropped - no one is supposed
to call this program direct anyway.

ac1ffde1ba kconfig: fix MODULES-related bug in case of no .config
There seems to be a kconfig bug due to MODULES not always being
evaluated if no .config is found. Take the following Kconfig as an
example:

config MODULES
	def_bool y

config FOO
	def_tristate m

With no .config, the following configuration is generated:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=y

With an empty .config, the following:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=m

Tristate choice statements can also exhibit the problem, due to having an
implicit rev_dep (select) containing "m".

The problem is that MODULES is never evaluted in conf_read_simple() unless
there's a .config. The following patch fixes this.

nconfig segfaults when help text contains the character '%'. For a quick

246cf9c26b kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet direct dependencies
The "select" statement in Kconfig files allows the enabling of options
even if they have unmet direct dependencies (i.e. "depends on" expands
to "no"). Currently, the "depends on" clauses are used in calculating
the visibility but they do not affect the reverse dependencies in any
way.

The patch introduces additional tracking of the "depends on" statements
and prints a warning on selecting an option if its direct dependencies
are not met.

42ef223c4a menuconfig: fix to center checklist correctly in a corner case
Run:
	make ARCH=arm menuconfig

And then select "System Type" -> "ARM system type". The kconfig
"choice" menu at this point looks empty.

It's because config ARCH_S3C2410 has a long prompt:

config ARCH_S3C2410
        bool "Samsung S3C2410, S3C2412, S3C2413, S3C2416, S3C2440, S3C2442, S3C2443, S3C2450"
	...

menuconfig centers the checklist according to this prompt without
considering the width of the list, and then things get wrong.

3fb9acb329 kconfig: fix to tag NEW symbols correctly
Those configs are not new:

  $ cat .config
  ...
  CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y
  ...
  CONFIG_BLOCK=y
  ...

But are tagged as NEW:

  $ yes "" | make config > myconf
  $ cat myconf | grep '(NEW)'
  Namespaces support (NAMESPACES) [Y/?] (NEW) y
  ...
  Enable the block layer (BLOCK) [Y/?] (NEW) y
  ...

You can also notice this bug when using gconfig/xconfig.

It's because the SYMBOL_DEF_USER bit of an invisible symbol is cleared
when the config file is read:

int conf_read(const char *name)
{
	...
	for_all_symbols(i, sym) {
		if (sym_has_value(sym) && !sym_is_choice_value(sym)) {
			/* Reset values of generates values, so they'll appear
			 * as new, if they should become visible, but that
			 * doesn't quite work if the Kconfig and the saved
			 * configuration disagree.
			 */
			if (sym->visible == no && !conf_unsaved)
				sym->flags &= ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;
	...
}

But a menu item which represents an invisible symbol is still
visible, if it's sub-menu is visible, so its SYMBOL_DEF_USER
bit should be set to indicate it's not NEW.

This patch has been around for a long time in Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise
Linux kernels and it may be useful for others. The nonint_oldconfig target
will fail and print the unset config options while loose_nonint_oldconfig will
simply let the config option unset. They're useful in distro kernel packages
where the config files are built using a combination of smaller config files.

Arjan van de Ven wrote the initial nonint_config and Roland McGrath added the
loose_nonint_oldconfig.

Finding the list of Makefiles in streamline-config should not report errors.

Also move the "chomp" to the @makefiles array instead of doing it in the
for loop. This is more efficient, and does not make it any less readable
by C programmers.

06f9a55cf7 gconfig: add support to show hidden options that have prompts
There's a button in gconfig to "Show all options", but I think
normally we are not interested in those configs which have no
prompt and thus can't be changed, so here I add a new button to
show hidden options which have prompts.

22c7eca61e menuconfig: add support to show hidden options which have prompts
Usage:
  Press <Z> to show all config symbols which have prompts.

Quote Tim Bird:

| I've been bitten by this numerous times.  I most often
| use ftrace on ARM, but when I go back to x86, I almost
| always go through a sequence of searching for the
| function graph tracer in the menus, then realizing it's
| completely missing until I disable CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.
|
| Is there any way to have the menu item appear, but be
| unsettable unless the SIZE option is disabled?  I'm
| not a Kconfig guru...

I myself found this useful too. For example, I need to test
ftrace/tracing and want to be sure all the tracing features are
enabled, so I  enter the "Tracers" menu, and press <Z> to
see if there is any config hidden.

I also noticed gconfig and xconfig have a button "Show all options",
but that's a bit too much, and I think normally what we are not
interested in those configs which have no prompt thus can't be
changed by users.

Exmaple:

      --- Tracers
      -*-   Kernel Function Tracer
      - -     Kernel Function Graph Tracer
      [*]   Interrupts-off Latency Tracer
      - -   Preemption-off Latency Tracer
      [*]   Sysprof Tracer

Here you can see 2 tracers are not selectable, and then can find
out how to make them selectable.

da6df879b9 kconfig: recalc symbol value before showing search results
A symbol's value won't be recalc-ed until we save config file or
enter the menu where the symbol sits.

So If I enable OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, and search FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER:

  Symbol: FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER [=y]
  Prompt: Kernel Function Graph Tracer
    Defined at kernel/trace/Kconfig:140
    Depends on: ... [=y] && (!X86_32 [=y] || !CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE [=y])
    ...

From the dependency it should result in FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=n,
but it still shows FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y.

615f0833aa kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfig
Doing the following:

	make LSMOD=file localmodconfig

Will make the streamline-config code use the given file instead of
lsmod. If the file is an executable, it will execute it, otherwise
it will read it as text.

	make LSMOD=/my/local/path/lsmod localmodconfig

The above will execute the lsmod in /my/local/path instead of the
lsmods that may be located elsewhere.

	make LSMOD=embedded_board_lsmod localmodconfig

The above will read the "embedded_board_lsmod" as a text file. This
is useful if you are doing a cross compile and need to run the
config against modules that exist on an embedded device.

Note, if the LSMOD= file does is not a path, it will add the
path to the object directory. That is, the above example will look
for "embedded_board_lsmod" in the directory that the binary will
be built in (the O=dir directory).

88f66ea98d kconfig: Look in both /bin and /sbin for lsmod in streamline_config.pl
Distributions now have lsmod in /bin instead of /sbin. But to handle
both cases, we look for it in /sbin /bin /usr/bin and /usr/sbin.
If lsmod is not found in any of those paths, it defaults to use
just lsmod and hopes that it lies in the path of the user.

e66f25d7d1 Improve kconfig symbol hashing
While looking for something else I noticed that the symbol
hash function used by kconfig is quite poor. It doesn't
use any of the standard hash techniques but simply
adds up the string and then uses power of two masking,
which is both known to perform poorly.

The current x86 kconfig has over 7000 symbols.

When I instrumented it showed that the minimum hash chain
length was 16 and a significant number of them was over
30.

It didn't help that the hash table size was only 256 buckets.

This patch increases the hash table size to a larger prime
and switches to a FNV32 hash. I played around with a couple of hash
functions, but that one seemed to perform best with reasonable
hash table sizes.

Increasing the hash table size even further didn't
seem like a good idea, because there are a couple of global
walks which walk the complete hash table.

I also moved the unnamed bucket to 0. It's still the longest
of all the buckets (44 entries), but hopefully it's not
often hit except for the global walk which doesn't care.

The result is a much nicer distribution:
(first column bucket length, second number of buckets with that length)

1: 3505
2: 1236
3: 294
4: 52
5: 3
47: 1		<--- this is the unnamed symbols bucket

There are still some 5+ buckets, but increasing the hash table
even more would be likely not worth it.

This also cleans up the code slightly by removing hard coded
magic numbers.

I didn't notice a big performance difference either way
on my Nehalem system, but I presume it'll help somewhat
on slower systems.
