2019-01-06kconfig: rename generated .*conf-cfg to *conf-cfgMasahiro Yamada

2019-01-06kbuild: use assignment instead of define ... endef for filechk_* rulesMasahiro Yamada
You do not have to use define ... endef for filechk_* rules. For simple cases, the use of assignment looks cleaner, IMHO. I updated the usage for scripts/Kbuild.include in case somebody misunderstands the 'define ... endif' is the requirement.

2018-12-28kconfig: split images.c out of qconf.cc/gconf.c to fix gconf warningsMasahiro Yamada
Currently, images.c is included by qconf.cc and gconf.c. qconf.cc uses all of xpm_* arrays, but gconf.c only some of them. Hence, lots of "... defined but not used" warnings are displayed while compiling gconf.c Splitting out images.c fixes the warnings. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2018-12-28kconfig: split some C files out of zconf.yMasahiro Yamada
I want to compile each C file independently instead of including all of them from zconf.y. Split out confdata.c, expr.c, symbol.c, and preprocess.c . These are low-hanging fruits. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-28kconfig: convert to SPDX License IdentifierMasahiro Yamada
All files in lxdialog/ are licensed under GPL-2.0+, and the rest are under GPL-2.0. I added GPL-2.0 tags to test scripts in tests/. Documentation/process/license-rules.rst does not suggest anything about the flex/bison files. Because flex does not accept the C++ comment style at the very top of a file, I used the C style for zconf.l, and so for zconf.y for consistency.

2018-12-28kconfig: remove keyword lookup table entirelyMasahiro Yamada
Commit 7a88488bbc23 ("[PATCH] kconfig: use gperf for kconfig keywords") introduced gperf for the keyword lookup. Then, commit bb3290d91695 ("Remove gperf usage from toolchain") killed the gperf use. As a result, the linear keyword search was left behind. If we do not use gperf, there is no reason to have the separate table of the keywords. Move all keywords back to the lexer. I also refactored the lexer to remove the COMMAND and PARAM states. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-22kconfig: update current_pos in the second lexerMasahiro Yamada

2018-12-22kconfig: stop associating kconf_id with yylvalMasahiro Yamada
The lexer has conventionally associated kconf_id data with yylval to carry additional information to the parser. No token is relying on this any more. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2018-12-22kconfig: stop supporting '.' and '/' in unquoted wordsMasahiro Yamada
In my understanding, special characters such as '.' and '/' are supported in unquoted words to use bare file paths in the "source" statement. With the previous commit surrounding all file paths with double quotes, we can drop this. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-22kconfig: use T_WORD instead of T_VARIABLE for variablesMasahiro Yamada
There is no grammatical ambiguity by using T_WORD for variables. The parser can distinguish variables from symbols from the context. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-22kconfig: use specific tokens instead of T_ASSIGN for assignmentsMasahiro Yamada
Currently, the lexer returns T_ASSIGN for all of =, :=, and += associating yylval with the flavor. I want to make the generated lexer as simple as possible. So, the lexer should convert keywords to tokens without thinking about the meaning. = -> T_EQUAL := -> T_COLON_EQUAL += -> T_PLUS_EQUAL Unfortunately, Kconfig uses = instead of == for the equal operator. So, the same token T_EQUAL is used for assignment and comparison. The parser can still distinguish them from the context. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-22kconfig: refactor scanning and parsing "option" propertiesMasahiro Yamada
For the keywords "modules", "defconfig_list", and "allnoconfig_y", the lexer should pass specific tokens instead of generic T_WORD. This simplifies both the lexer and the parser. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

2018-12-15kconfig: loosen the order of "visible" and "depends on" in menu entryMasahiro Yamada
Currently, "visible" and "depends on", if defined in a menu entry, must appear in that order. The real example is in drivers/media/tuners/Kconfig: menu "Customize TV tuners" visible if <expr1> depends on <expr2> ... is fine, but you cannot change the property order like this: menu "Customize TV tuners" depends on <expr2> visible if <expr1> Kconfig does not require a specific order of properties. In this case, menu_add_visibility(() and menu_add_dep() are orthogonal. Loosen this unreasonable restriction. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-15kconfig: remove redundant menu_block ruleMasahiro Yamada

2018-12-15kconfig: remove redundant if_block ruleMasahiro Yamada
The code block surrounded by "if" ... "endif" is stmt_list. Remove the redundant if_block symbol entirely. Remove "stmt_list: stmt_list end" rule as well since it would obviously cause conflicts. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-15kconfig: remove grammatically ambiguous option_errorMasahiro Yamada
This commit decreases 6 shift/reduce conflicts, and finally achieves conflict-free parser. Since Kconfig has no terminator for a config block, detecting the end of config_stmt is not easy. For example, there are two ways for handling the error in the following code: 1 config FOO 2 = [A] Print "unknown option" error, assuming the line 2 is a part of config_option_list [B] Print "invalid statement", assuming the line 1 is reduced into a config_stmt by itself Bison actually chooses [A] because it performs the shift rather than the reduction where both are possible. However, there is no reason to choose one over the other. Let's remove the option_error, and let it fall back to [B]. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-15kconfig: remove grammatically ambiguous "unexpected option" diagnosticMasahiro Yamada
This commit decreases 15 shift/reduce conflicts. The location of this error recovery is ambiguous. For example, there are two ways to interpret the following code: 1 config FOO 2 bool "foo" [A] Both lines are reduced together into a config_stmt. [B] The only line 1 is reduced into a config_stmt, and the line 2 matches to "option_name error T_EOL" Of course, we expect [A], but [B] could be grammatically possible. Kconfig has no terminator for a config block. So, we cannot detect its end until we see a non-property keyword. People often insert a blank line between two config blocks, but it is just a coding convention. Blank lines are actually allowed anywhere in Kconfig files. The real error is when a property keyword appears right after "endif", "endchoice", "endmenu", "source", "comment", or variable assignment. Instead of fixing the grammatical ambiguity, I chose to simply remove this error recovery. The difference is unexpected option "bool" ... is turned into a more generic message: invalid statement Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-15kconfig: warn no new line at end of fileMasahiro Yamada
It would be nice to warn if a new line is missing at end of file. We could do this by checkpatch.pl for arbitrary files, but new line is rather essential as a statement terminator in Kconfig. The warning message looks like this: kernel/Kconfig.preempt:60:warning: no new line at end of file Currently, kernel/Kconfig.preempt is the only file with no new line at end of file. Fix it. I know there are some false negative cases. For example, no warning is displayed when the last line contains some whitespaces/comments, but no new line. Yet, this commit works well for most cases. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-13kconfig: clean up EOF handling in the lexerMasahiro Yamada
A new file should always start in the INITIAL state. When the lexer bumps into EOF, the lexer must get back to the INITIAL state anyway. Remove the redundant <<EOF>> pattern in the PARAM state. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-13kconfig: fix ambiguous grammar in terms of new linesMasahiro Yamada
This commit decreases 8 shift/reduce conflicts. A certain amount of grammatical ambiguity comes from how to reduce excessive T_EOL tokens. Let's take a look at the example code below: 1 config A 2 bool "a" 3 4 depends on B 5 6 config B 7 def_bool y The line 3 is melt into "config_option_list", but the line 5 can be either a part of "config_option_list" or "common_stmt" by itself. Currently, the lexer converts '\n' to T_EOL verbatim. In Kconfig, a new line works as a statement terminator, but new lines in empty lines are not critical since empty lines (or lines that contain only whitespaces/comments) are just no-op. If the lexer simply discards no-op lines, the parser will not be bothered by excessive T_EOL tokens. Of course, this means we are shifting the complexity from the parser to the lexer, but it is much easier than tackling on shift/reduce conflicts. I introduced the second stage lexer to tweak the behavior. Discard T_EOL if the previous token is T_EOL or T_HELPTEXT. Two T_EOL tokens in a row is meaningless. T_HELPTEXT is a special token that is reduced without T_EOL. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-13kconfig: refactor pattern matching in STRING stateMasahiro Yamada
Here, similar matching patters are duplicated in order to look ahead the '\n' character. If the next character is '\n', the lexer returns T_WORD_QUOTE because it must be prepared to return T_EOL at the next match. Use unput('\n') trick to reduce the code duplication.

2018-12-13kconfig: remove unneeded pattern matching to whitespacesMasahiro Yamada

2018-12-13kconfig: require T_EOL to reduce visible statementMasahiro Yamada
All line-oriented statements should be reduced when seeing a T_EOL token. I guess missing T_EOL for the "visible" statement is just a mistake. This commit decreases one shift/reduce conflict. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-13kconfig: fix memory leak when EOF is encountered in quotationMasahiro Yamada
An unterminated string literal followed by new line is passed to the parser (with "multi-line strings not supported" warning shown), then handled properly there. On the other hand, an unterminated string literal at end of file is never passed to the parser, then results in memory leak. [Test Code] ----------(Kconfig begin)---------- source "Kconfig.inc" config A bool "a" -----------(Kconfig end)----------- --------(Kconfig.inc begin)-------- config B bool "b\No new line at end of file ---------(Kconfig.inc end)--------- [Summary from Valgrind] Before the fix: LEAK SUMMARY: definitely lost: 16 bytes in 1 blocks ... After the fix: LEAK SUMMARY: definitely lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks ... Eliminate the memory leak path by handling this case. Of course, such a Kconfig file is wrong already, so I will add an error message later. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-13kconfig: fix file name and line number of warn_ignored_character()Masahiro Yamada
Currently, warn_ignore_character() displays invalid file name and line number. The lexer should use current_file->name and yylineno, while the parser should use zconf_curname() and zconf_lineno(). This difference comes from that the lexer is always going ahead of the parser. The parser needs to look ahead one token to make a shift/reduce decision, so the lexer is requested to scan more text from the input file. This commit fixes the warning message from warn_ignored_character(). [Test Code] ----(Kconfig begin)---- / -----(Kconfig end)----- [Output] Before the fix: <none>:0:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/' After the fix: Kconfig:1:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-08kconfig: remove k_invalid from expr_parse_string() return typeMasahiro Yamada
The only possibility of k_invalid being returned was when expr_parse_sting() parsed S_OTHER type symbol. This actually never happened, and this is even clearer since S_OTHER has gone. Clean up unreachable code. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-08kconfig: remove S_OTHER symbol type and correct dependency trackingMasahiro Yamada
The S_OTHER type could be set only when conf_read_simple() is reading include/config/auto.conf file. For example, CONFIG_FOO=y exists in include/config/auto.conf but it is missing from the currently parsed Kconfig files, sym_lookup() allocates a new symbol, and sets its type to S_OTHER. Strangely, it will be set to S_STRING by conf_set_sym_val() a few lines below while it is obviously bool or tristate type. On the other hand, when CONFIG_BAR="bar" is being dropped from include/config/auto.conf, its type remains S_OTHER. Because for_all_symbols() omits S_OTHER symbols, conf_touch_deps() misses to touch include/config/bar.h This behavior has been a pretty mystery for me, and digging the git histroy did not help. At least, touching depfiles is broken for string type symbols. I removed S_OTHER entirely, and reimplemented it more simply. If CONFIG_FOO was visible in the previous syncconfig, but is missing now, what we want to do is quite simple; just call conf_touch_dep() to touch include/config/foo.h instead of allocating a new symbol data.

2018-12-08kconfig: split out code touching a file to conf_touch_dep()Masahiro Yamada
conf_touch_deps() iterates over symbols, touching corresponding include/config/*.h files as needed. Split the part that touches a single file into a new helper so it can be reused. The new helper, conf_touch_dep(), takes a symbol name as a parameter, and touches the corresponding include/config/*.h file. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-12-08kconfig: rename conf_split_config() to conf_touch_deps()Masahiro Yamada
According to commit 2e3646e51b2d ("kconfig: integrate split config into silentoldconfig"), this function was named after split-include tool, which used to exist in old versions of Linux. Setting aside the historical reason, rename it into a more intuitive name. This function touches timestamp files under include/config/ in order to interact with the fixdep tool.

2018-12-08kconfig: remove unneeded setsym label in conf_read_simple()Masahiro Yamada
The two 'goto setsym' statements are reachable only when sym == NULL. The code below the 'setsym:' label does nothing when sym == NULL since there is just one if-block guarded by 'if (sym && ...)'. Hence, 'goto setsym' can be replaced with 'continue'. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
2018-11-15scripts/kconfig/merge_config: don't redefine 'y' to 'm'Anders Roxell
In today's merge_config.sh the order of the config fragment files dictates the output of a config option. With this approach we will get different .config files depending on the order of the config fragment files. So doing something like: $ ./merge/kconfig/merge_config.sh selftest.config drm.config Where selftest.config defines DRM=y and drm.config defines DRM=m, the result will be "DRM=m". Rework to add a switch to get builtin '=y' precedence over modules '=m', this will result in "DRM=y".

The current SED_CONFIG_EXP could match to comment lines in config fragment files, especially when CONFIG_PREFIX_ is empty.

2018-08-22kconfig: improve the recursive dependency reportMasahiro Yamada
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.

2018-08-22kconfig: report recursive dependency involving 'imply'Masahiro Yamada
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.
