The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents
there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.
Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

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.

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.

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

$ 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.

Originally, recursive dependency was a fatal error for Kconfig
because Kconfig cannot compute symbol values in such a situation.
Commit d595cea624 ("kconfig: print more info when we see a recursive

Get it back to an error again.
Also, rename the unit test directory "warn_recursive_dep" to

Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
To get access to environment variables, Kconfig needs to define a
symbol using "option env=" syntax. It is tedious to add a symbol entry
for each environment variable given that we need to define much more
such as 'CC', 'AS', 'srctree' etc. to evaluate the compiler capability
in Kconfig.
Adding '$' for symbol references is grammatically inconsistent.
Looking at the code, the symbols prefixed with 'S' are expanded by:
- conf_expand_value()
This is used to expand 'arch/$ARCH/defconfig' and 'defconfig_list'
- sym_expand_string_value()
This is used to expand strings in 'source' and 'mainmenu'
All of them are fixed values independent of user configuration. So,
they can be changed into the direct expansion instead of symbols.
This change makes the code much cleaner. The bounce symbols 'SRCARCH',
'ARCH', 'SUBARCH', 'KERNELVERSION' are gone.
sym_init() hard-coding 'UNAME_RELEASE' is also gone. 'UNAME_RELEASE'
should be replaced with an environment variable.
ARCH_DEFCONFIG is a normal symbol, so it should be simply referenced
without '$' prefix.
The new syntax is addicted by Make. The variable reference needs
parentheses, like $(FOO), but you can omit them for single-letter
variables, like $F. Yet, in Makefiles, people tend to use the
parenthetical form for consistency / clarification.
At this moment, only the environment variable is supported, but I will
extend the concept of 'variable' later on.
The variables are expanded in the lexer so we can simplify the token
handling on the parser side.
For example, the following code works.
[Example code]
config MY_TOOLCHAIN_LIST
string
default "My tools: CC=$(CC), AS=$(AS), CPP=$(CPP)"
[Result]
$ make -s alldefconfig && tail -n 1 .config

Currently, the unmet dependency warnings end up with endlessly long

warning: (A && B && D) selects E which has unmet direct
dependencies (DEP1 && DEP2)
Here, I see some points to be improved.
First, '(A || B || D)' would make more sense than '(A && B && D)'.
I am not sure if this is intentional, but expr_simplify_unmet_dep()
turns OR expressions into AND, like follows:
case E_OR:
return expr_alloc_and(
Second, we see false positives. 'A' is a real unmet dependency.
'B' is false positive because 'DEP1' is fixed to 'y', and 'B' depends
on 'DEP2'. 'C' was correctly dropped by expr_simplify_unmet_dep().
'D' is also false positive because it has no chance to be enabled.
Current expr_simplify_unmet_dep() cannot avoid those false positives.
After all, I decided to use the same helpers as used for printing
reverse dependencies in the help.

[Test Case]

This causes unmet dependency because 'B' is forced 'y' ignoring
'depends on m'. This should be warned.
On the other hand, the following case ('B' is bool) should not be
warned, so 'depends on m' for bool symbols should be naturally treated
as 'depends on y'.

=== 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.

The "imply" keyword is a weak version of "select" where the target
config symbol can still be turned off, avoiding those pitfalls that come
with the "select" keyword.
This is useful e.g. with multiple drivers that want to indicate their
ability to hook into a secondary subsystem while allowing the user to
configure that subsystem out without also having to unset these drivers.
Currently, the same effect can almost be achieved with:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
config DRIVER_B
tristate
config DRIVER_C
tristate
config DRIVER_D
tristate
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
default DRIVER_A || DRIVER_B || DRIVER_C || DRIVER_D || [...]
This is unwieldy to maintain especially with a large number of drivers.
Furthermore, there is no easy way to restrict the choice for SUBSYSTEM_X
to y or n, excluding m, when some drivers are built-in. The "select"
keyword allows for excluding m, but it excludes n as well. Hence
this "imply" keyword. The above becomes:
config DRIVER_A
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
config DRIVER_B
tristate
imply SUBSYSTEM_X
[...]
config SUBSYSTEM_X
tristate
This is much cleaner, and way more flexible than "select". SUBSYSTEM_X
can still be configured out, and it can be set as a module when none of
the drivers are configured in or all of them are modular.

If choices consist of choice_values of type tristate that depend on
symbols set to 'm', those choice_values are not set to 'n' if the
choice is changed from 'm' to 'y' (in which case only one active
choice_value is allowed). Those values are also written to the config
file causing modules to be built when they should not.
The following config can be used to reproduce and examine the problem;
with the frontend of your choice set "Choice 0" and "Choice 1" to 'm',
then set "Tristate Choice" to 'y' and save the configuration:
config modules
boolean modules
default y
option modules
config dependency
tristate "Dependency"
default m
choice
prompt "Tristate Choice"
default choice0
config choice0
tristate "Choice 0"
config choice1
tristate "Choice 1"
depends on dependency
endchoice
This patch sets tristate choice_values' visibility that depend on
symbols set to 'm' to 'n' if the corresponding choice is set to 'y'.
This makes them disappear from the choice list and will also cause the
choice_values' value set to 'n' in sym_calc_value() and as a result
they are written as "not set" to the resulting .config file.

Over the years I found it desirable to be able to use all sorts of
relations, not just (in)equality. And apparently I'm not the only one,
as there's at least one example in the tree where the programmer
assumed this would work (see DEBUG_UART_8250_WORD in
arch/arm/Kconfig.debug). Another possible use would e.g. be to fold the
two SMP/NR_CPUS prompts into one: SMP could be promptless, simply
depending on NR_CPUS > 1.
A (desirable) side effect of this change - resulting from numeric
values now necessarily being compared as numbers rather than as
strings - is that comparing hex values now works as expected: Other
than int ones (which aren't allowed to have leading zeroes), zeroes
following the 0x prefix made them compare unequal even if their values
were equal.

This fixes lots of typos in comments and strings.
It also updates the documentation strings in mconf to reflect the changes in
the user interface from the two commits
6364fd0cb1
menuconfig: Add Save/Load buttons
1bdbac478a
menuconfig: Get rid of the top-level entries for "Load an Alternate/Save an Alternate"
And it updates the layout of the example search result, i. e. moves down the
"Defined at" and "Depends on" lines and adds a symbol state ([=n]) to the
symbol in the "Selected by" line.
Furthermore, the help texts now should fit in 80 columns again when viewed
in mconf.

Instead of using "long" for kconfig "hex" and "range" values, which may
change in size depending on the host architecture, use "long long". This
will allow values greater than INT_MAX on 32-bit hosts when cross
compiling.

The parsing routines for Kconfig files use strtol(), but store and

When searching for symbols, return the symbols sorted by relevance.
Sorting is done as thus:
- first, symbols that match exactly
- then, alphabetical sort
Since the search can be a regexp, it is possible that more than one symbol
matches exactly. In this case, we can't decide which to sort first, so we
fallback to alphabeticall sort.
Explain this (new!) sorting heuristic in the documentation.

Running `oldconfig' after any of the following configuration change:
either trivial addition, such as:
config A
bool "A"
choice
prompt "Choice ?"
depends on A
config CHOICE_B
bool "Choice B"
config CHOICE_C
bool "Choice C"
endchoice
or more tricky change:
OLD KCONFIG | NEW KCONFIG
|
| config A
| bool "A"
|
choice | choice
prompt "Choice ?" | prompt "Choice ?"
|
config CHOICE_C | config CHOICE_C
bool "Choice C" | bool "Choice C"
|
config CHOICE_D | config CHOICE_D
bool "Choice D" | bool "Choice D"
endchoice |
| config CHOICE_E
| bool "Choice E"
| depends on A
| endchoice
will not cause the choice to be considered as NEW, and thus not be
asked. The cause of this behavior is that choice's novelty are computed
statically right after the saved configuration has been read. At this
point, the new dependency's value is still unknown and asserted to be
`no'. Moreover, no update to this decision is made afterward.
Correct this by dynamically evaluating a choice's novelty, and removing the
static evaluation.

Make conf_write_symbol() grammar agnostic to be able to use it from different
code path. These path pass a printer callback which will print a symbol's name
and its value in different format.
conf_write_symbol()'s job become mostly only to prepare a string for the
printer. This avoid to have to pass specialized flag to generic
functions

kconfig: the day kconfig warns about "select"-abuse has come
This is an attempt to simplify the expressing printed by kconfig when a
symbol is selected but still has direct unmet dependency.
First, the symbol reverse dependency is split in sub-expression. Then,
each sub-expression is checked to ensure that it does not contains the
unmet dependency. This removes the false-positive symbols and fixed symbol
which already have the correct dependency. Finally, only the symbol
responsible of the "select" is printed, instead of its full dependency tree.
