2020-01-10kconfig: fix an "implicit declaration of function" warningBartosz Golaszewski
strncasecmp() & strcasecmp() functions are declared in strings.h, not string.h. On most environments the former is implicitly included by the latter but on some setups, building menuconfig results in the following warning: HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/mconf.o scripts/kconfig/mconf.c: In function ‘search_conf’: scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:423:6: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘strncasecmp’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] if (strncasecmp(dialog_input_result, CONFIG_, strlen(CONFIG_)) == 0) ^~~~~~~~~~~ scripts/kconfig/mconf.c: In function ‘main’: scripts/kconfig/mconf.c:1021:8: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘strcasecmp’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] if (!strcasecmp(mode, "single_menu")) ^~~~~~~~~~ Fix it by explicitly including strings.h.

2019-05-11kconfig: make parent directories for the saved .config as neededMasahiro Yamada
With menuconfig / nconfig, users can input any file path from the "Save" menu, but it fails if the parent directory does not exist. Why not create the parent directory automatically. I think this is a user-friendly behavior. I changed the error messages in menuconfig / nconfig. "Nonexistent directory" is no longer the most likely reason of the failure. Perhaps, the user specified the existing directory, or attempted to write to the location without write permission. 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.

2018-09-01kconfig: remove a spurious self-assignmentLukas Bulwahn
The self assignment was probably introduced by an automated code refactoring in commit 694c49a7c01c ("kconfig: drop localization support").

2018-07-25kconfig: allow all config targets to write auto.conf if missingMasahiro Yamada
Currently, only syncconfig creates or updates include/config/auto.conf and some other files. Other config targets create or update only the .config file. When you configure and build the kernel from a pristine source tree, any config target is followed by syncconfig in the build stage since include/config/auto.conf is missing. We are moving compiler tests from Makefile to Kconfig. It means that parsing Kconfig files will be more costly since Kconfig invokes the compiler commands internally. Thus, we want to avoid invoking Kconfig twice (one for *config to create the .config, and one for syncconfig to synchronize the auto.conf). If auto.conf does not exist, we can generate all configuration files in the first configuration stage, which will save the syncconfig in the build stage. Please note this should be done only when auto.conf is missing. If *config blindly did this, time stamp files under include/config/ would be unnecessarily touched, triggering unneeded rebuild of objects. I assume a scenario like this: 1. You have a source tree that has already been built with CONFIG_FOO disabled 2. Run "make menuconfig" to enable CONFIG_FOO 3. CONFIG_FOO turns out to be unnecessary. Run "make menuconfig" again to disable CONFIG_FOO 4. Run "make" In this case, include/config/foo.h should not be touched since there is no change in CONFIG_FOO. The sync process should be delayed until the user really attempts to build the kernel. This commit has another motivation; I want to suppress the 'No such file or directory' warning from the 'include' directive. The top-level Makefile includes auto.conf with '-include' directive, like this: ifeq ($(dot-config),1) -include include/config/auto.conf endif This looks strange because auto.conf is mandatory when dot-config is 1. I guess only the reason of using '-include' is to suppress the warning 'include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory' when building from a clean tree. However, this has a side-effect; Make considers the files included by '-include' are optional. Hence, Make continues to build even if it fails to generate include/config/auto.conf. I will change this in the next commit, but the warning message is annoying. (At least, kbuild test robot reports it as a regression.) With this commit, Kconfig will generate all configuration files together with the .config and I guess it is a solution good enough to suppress the warning. Note: GNU Make 4.2 or later does not display the warning from the 'include' directive if include files are successfully generated. See GNU Make commit 87a5f98d248f ("[SV 102] Don't show unnecessary include file errors.") However, older GNU Make versions are still widely used.

2018-07-25kconfig: handle format string before calling conf_message_callback()Masahiro Yamada

So, instead of seeing only 6 entries, we'd see as much as possible in the current screen. Ditto for the width: the popup adapts to the longest prompt (but does not overflow the screen either, of course), so prompts are not truncated." NOTE: This patch requires [1].

2012-05-17MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.Paul Gortmaker
Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series. This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in carrying this any further into the future. One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

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.

This patch was inspired by the kernel projects page, where an ncurses replacement for menuconfig was mentioned (by Sam Ravnborg). Building on menuconfig, this patch implements a more modern look interface using ncurses and ncurses' satellite libraries (menu, panel, form). The implementation does not depend on lxdialog, which is currently distributed with the kernel. Signed-off-by: Nir Tzachar <nir.tzachar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
2010-02-02menuconfig: wrap long help linesVadim Bendebury (вб)
Help text for certain config options is very extensive (the text includes the names of all other options the option in question depends on). Long lines are not wrapped, making it impossible to see the list without scrolling horizontally. This patch adds some logic which wraps help screen lines at word boundaries to prevent truncating. Tested by running ARCH=powerpc make menuconfig O=/tmp/build which shows that the long lines are now wrapped, and ARCH=powerpc make xconfig O=/tmp/build to demonstrate that it still compiles and operates as expected.
