2018-03-26kconfig: invoke oldconfig instead of silentoldconfig from local*configMasahiro Yamada
The purpose of local{yes,mod}config is to arrange the .config file based on actually loaded modules. It is unnecessary to update include/generated/autoconf.h and include/config/* stuff here. They will be updated as needed during the build. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Ulf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com>
2018-03-26kconfig: hide irrelevant sub-menus for oldconfigMasahiro Yamada
Historically, "make oldconfig" has changed its behavior several times, quieter or louder. (I attached the history below.) Currently, it is not as quiet as it should be. This commit addresses it. Test Case --------- ---------------------------(Kconfig)---------------------------- menu "menu" config FOO bool "foo" menu "sub menu" config BAR bool "bar" endmenu endmenu menu "sibling menu" config BAZ bool "baz" endmenu ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------(.config)---------------------------- CONFIG_BAR=y CONFIG_BAZ=y ---------------------------------------------------------------- With the Kconfig and .config above, "make silentoldconfig" and "make oldconfig" work differently, like follows: $ make silentoldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * menu * foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y # # configuration written to .config # $ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * menu * foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y * * sub menu * bar (BAR) [Y/n/?] y # # configuration written to .config # Both hide "sibling node" since it is irrelevant. The difference is that silentoldconfig hides "sub menu" whereas oldconfig does not. The behavior of silentoldconfig is preferred since the "sub menu" does not contain any new symbol. The root cause is in conf(). There are three input modes that can call conf(); oldaskconfig, oldconfig, and silentoldconfig. Everytime conf() encounters a menu entry, it calls check_conf() to check if it contains new symbols. If no new symbol is found, the menu is just skipped. Currently, this happens only when input_mode == silentoldconfig. The oldaskconfig enters into the check_conf() loop as silentoldconfig, so oldaskconfig works likewise for the second loop or later, but it never happens for oldconfig. So, irrelevant sub-menus are shown for oldconfig. Change the test condition to "input_mode != oldaskconfig". This is false only for the first loop of oldaskconfig; it must ask the user all symbols, so no need to call check_conf(). History of oldconfig -------------------- [0] Originally, "make oldconfig" was as loud as "make config" (It showed the entire .config file) [1] Commit cd9140e1e73a ("kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty") made oldconfig quieter, but it was still less quieter than silentoldconfig. (oldconfig did not hide sub-menus) [2] Commit 204c96f60904 ("kconfig: fix silentoldconfig") changed the input_mode of oldconfig to "ask_silent" from "ask_new". So, oldconfig really became as quiet as silentoldconfig. (oldconfig hided irrelevant sub-menus) [3] Commit 4062f1a4c030 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") made oldconfig as loud as [0] due to misconversion. [4] Commit 14828349719a ("kconfig: fix make oldconfig") addressed the misconversion of [3], but it made oldconfig quieter only to the same level as [1], not [2]. This commit is restoring the behavior of [2]. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Ulf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com>

2018-03-26kconfig: do not call check_conf() for olddefconfigMasahiro Yamada
check_conf() traverses the menu tree, but it is completely no-op for olddefconfig because the following if-else block does nothing. if (input_mode == listnewconfig) { ... } else if (input_mode != olddefconfig) { ... } As the help message says, olddefconfig automatically sets new symbols to their default value. There is no room for manual intervention. So, calling check_conf() for olddefconfig is odd in the first place.

2018-03-26kconfig: only write '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' for visible symbolsUlf Magnusson
=== Background === - Visible n-valued bool/tristate symbols generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line in the .config file. The idea is to remember the user selection without having to set a Makefile variable. Having n correspond to the variable being undefined in the Makefiles makes for easy CONFIG_* tests. - Invisible n-valued bool/tristate symbols normally do not generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, because user values from .config files have no effect on invisible symbols anyway. Currently, there is one exception to this rule: Any bool/tristate symbol that gets the value n through a 'default' property generates a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, even if the symbol is invisible. Note that this only applies to explicitly given defaults, and not when the symbol implicitly defaults to n (like bool/tristate symbols without 'default' properties do). This is inconsistent, and seems redundant: - As mentioned, the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' won't affect the symbol once the .config is read back in. - Even if the symbol is invisible at first but becomes visible later, there shouldn't be any harm in recalculating the default value rather than viewing the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' as a previous user value of n. === Changes === Change sym_calc_value() to only set SYMBOL_WRITE (write to .config) for non-n-valued 'default' properties. Note that SYMBOL_WRITE is always set for visible symbols regardless of whether they have 'default' properties or not, so this change only affects invisible symbols. This reduces the size of the x86 .config on my system by about 1% (due to removed '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' entries). One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making the following two definitions behave exactly the same: config FOO bool config FOO bool default n With this change, neither of these will generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied). That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is redundant. This change only affects generated .config files and not autoconf.h: autoconf.h only includes #defines for non-n bool/tristate symbols. === Testing === The following testing was done with the x86 Kconfigs: - .config files generated before and after the change were compared to verify that the only difference is some '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' entries disappearing. A couple of these were inspected manually, and most turned out to be from redundant 'default n/def_bool n' properties. - The generated include/generated/autoconf.h was compared before and after the change and verified to be identical. - As a sanity check, the same modification was done to Kconfiglib. The Kconfiglib test suite was then run to check for any mismatches against the output of the C implementation.

2018-03-26kconfig: Print reverse dependencies in groupsEugeniu Rosca
Surprisingly or not, disabling a CONFIG option (which is assumed to be unneeded) may be not so trivial. Especially it is not trivial, when this CONFIG option is selected by a dozen of other configs. Before the moment commit 1ccb27143360 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" readable") popped up in v4.16-rc1, it was an absolute pain to break down the "Selected by" reverse dependency expression in order to identify all those configs which select (IOW *do not allow disabling*) a certain feature (assumed to be not needed). This patch tries to make one step further by putting at users' fingertips the revdep top level OR sub-expressions grouped/clustered by the tristate value they evaluate to. This should allow the users to directly concentrate on and tackle the _active_ reverse dependencies. To give some numbers and quantify the complexity of certain reverse dependencies, assuming commit 617aebe6a97e ("Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux"), ARCH=arm64 and vanilla arm64 defconfig, here is the top 10 CONFIG options with the highest amount of top level "||" sub-expressions/tokens that make up the final "Selected by" reverse dependency expression. | Config | All revdep | Active revdep | |-------------------|------------|---------------| | REGMAP_I2C | 212 | 9 | | CRC32 | 167 | 25 | | FW_LOADER | 128 | 5 | | MFD_CORE | 124 | 9 | | FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT | 114 | 2 | | FB_CFB_COPYAREA | 111 | 2 | | FB_CFB_FILLRECT | 110 | 2 | | SND_PCM | 103 | 2 | | CRYPTO_HASH | 87 | 19 | | WATCHDOG_CORE | 86 | 6 | The story behind the above is that users need to visually review/evaluate 212 expressions which *potentially* select REGMAP_I2C in order to identify the expressions which *actually* select REGMAP_I2C, for a particular ARCH and for a particular defconfig used. To make this experience smoother, change the way reverse dependencies are displayed to the user from [1] to [2].

2018-03-26kconfig: clean-up reverse dependency help implementationMasahiro Yamada
This commit splits out the special E_OR handling ('-' instead of '||') into a dedicated helper expr_print_revdev(). Restore the original expr_print() prior to commit 1ccb27143360 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" readable"). This makes sense because: - We need to chop those expressions only when printing the reverse dependency, and only when E_OR is encountered - Otherwise, it should be printed as before, so fall back to expr_print() This also improves the behavior; for a single line, it was previously displayed in the same line as "Selected by", like this: Selected by: A [=n] && B [=n] This will be displayed in a new line, consistently: Selected by: - A [=n] && B [=n] Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>
2018-03-26kbuild: restore autoksyms.h touch to the top MakefileMasahiro Yamada
Commit d3fc425e819b ("kbuild: make sure autoksyms.h exists early") moved the code that touches autoksyms.h to scripts/kconfig/Makefile with obscure reason. From Nicolas' comment [1], he did not seem to be sure about the root cause. I guess I figured it out, so here is a fix-up I think is more correct. According to the error log in the original post [2], the build failed in scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c scripts/mod/Makefile is descended from scripts/Makefile, which is invoked from the top-level Makefile by the 'scripts' target. To build vmlinux and/or modules, Kbuild descend into $(vmlinux-dirs). This depends on 'prepare' and 'scripts' as follows: $(vmlinux-dirs): prepare scripts Because there is no dependency between 'prepare' and 'scripts', the parallel building can execute them simultaneously. 'prepare' depends on 'prepare1', which touched autoksyms.h, while 'scripts' descends into script/, then scripts/mod/, which needs <generated/autoksyms.h> if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS. It was the reason of the race. I am not happy to have unrelated code in the Kconfig Makefile, so getting it back to the top Makefile. I removed the standalone test target because I want to use it to create an empty autoksyms.h file. Here is a little improvement; unnecessary autoksyms.h is not created when CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is disabled.

2018-03-02kconfig: set SYMBOL_AUTO to the symbol marked with defconfig_listMasahiro Yamada
The 'defconfig_list' is a weird attribute. If the '.config' is missing, conf_read_simple() iterates over all visible defaults, then it uses the first one for which fopen() succeeds. config DEFCONFIG_LIST string depends on !UML option defconfig_list default "/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config" default "/etc/kernel-config" default "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE" default "$ARCH_DEFCONFIG" default "arch/$ARCH/defconfig" However, like other symbols, the first visible default is always written out to the .config file. This might be different from what has been actually used. For example, on my machine, the third one "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE" is opened, like follows: $ rm .config $ make oldconfig 2>/dev/null scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig # # using defaults found in /boot/config-4.4.0-112-generic # * * Restart config... * * * IRQ subsystem * Expose irq internals in debugfs (GENERIC_IRQ_DEBUGFS) [N/y/?] (NEW) However, the resulted .config file contains the first one since it is visible: $ grep CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST .config CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST="/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config" In order to stop confusing people, prevent this CONFIG option from being written to the .config file.

Reverse dependency expressions can get rather unwieldy, especially if a symbol is selected by more than a handful of other symbols. I.e. it's possible to have near endless expressions like: A && B && !C || D || F && (G || H) || [...] Chop these expressions into actually readable chunks: - A && B && !C - D - F && (G || H) - [...] I.e. transform the top level OR tokens into newlines and prepend each line with a minus. This makes the "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" blurb much easier to read. This is done only if there is more than one top level OR. "Depends on:" and "Range :" were deliberately left as they are.

2018-01-22kconfig: use default 'yy' prefix for lexer and parserMasahiro Yamada
Flex and Bison provide an option to change the prefix of globally- visible symbols. This is useful to link multiple lexers and/or parsers into the same executable. However, Kconfig (and any other host programs in kernel) uses a single lexer and parser. I do not see a good reason to change the default 'yy' prefix.

menu_end_entry() is empty and completely unused as far as I can tell: $ git log -G menu_end_entry --oneline a02f057 [PATCH] kconfig: improve error handling in the parser 1da177e Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Last one is the initial Git commit, where menu_end_entry() is empty as well. I couldn't find anything that redefined it on Google either. It might be a debugging helper for setting a breakpoint after each config, menuconfig, and comment is parsed. IMO it hurts more than it helps in that case by making the parsing code look more complicated at a glance than it really is, and I suspect it doesn't get used much. Tested by running the Kconfiglib test suite, which indirectly verifies that the .config files generated by the C implementation for each defconfig file in the kernel stays the same.

2018-01-22kconfig: Don't leak main menus during parsingUlf Magnusson
If a 'mainmenu' entry appeared in the Kconfig files, two things would leak: - The 'struct property' allocated for the default "Linux Kernel Configuration" prompt. - The string for the T_WORD/T_WORD_QUOTE prompt after the T_MAINMENU token, allocated on the heap in zconf.l. To fix it, introduce a new 'no_mainmenu_stmt' nonterminal that matches if there's no 'mainmenu' and adds the default prompt. That means the prompt only gets allocated once regardless of whether there's a 'mainmenu' statement or not, and managing it becomes simple.

2018-01-10kconfig: Don't leak symbol names during parsingUlf Magnusson
Prior to this fix, zconf.y did not free symbol names from zconf.l in these contexts: - After T_CONFIG ('config LEAKED') - After T_MENUCONFIG ('menuconfig LEAKED') - After T_SELECT ('select LEAKED') - After T_IMPLY ('imply LEAKED') - After T_DEFAULT in a choice ('default LEAKED') All of these come in the form of T_WORD tokens, which always have their associated string allocated on the heap in zconf.l and need to be freed. Fix by introducing a new nonterminal 'nonconst_symbol' which takes a T_WORD, fetches the symbol, and then frees the T_WORD string. The already existing 'symbol' nonterminal works the same way but also accepts T_WORD_QUOTE, corresponding to a constant symbol. T_WORD_QUOTE should not be accepted in any of the contexts above, so the 'symbol' nonterminal can't be reused here. Fetching the symbol in 'nonconst_symbol' also removes a bunch of sym_lookup() calls from actions.

2018-01-06kconfig: fix relational operators for bool and tristate symbolsNicolas Pitre
Since commit 31847b67bec0 ("kconfig: allow use of relations other than (in)equality") it is possible to use relational operators in Kconfig statements. However, those operators give unexpected results when applied to bool/tristate values: (n < y) = y (correct) (m < y) = y (correct) (n < m) = n (wrong) This happens because relational operators process bool and tristate symbols as strings and m sorts before n. It makes little sense to do a lexicographical compare on bool and tristate values though. Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt states that expression can have a value of 'n', 'm' or 'y' (or 0, 1, 2 respectively for calculations). Let's make it so for relational comparisons with bool/tristate expressions as well and document them. If at least one symbol is an actual string then the lexicographical compare works just as before.

zconf.lex.c is generated by flex, zconf.tab.c by bison. Instead of running flex and bison during the kernel building, we conventionally version-control those artifacts with _shipped suffix. It is tedious to manually regenerate them every time we change the real sources, zconf.l and zconf.y. Remove the _shipped files and switch over to build-time generation of the intermediate C files.
