kconfig: attach help text to menus

This patch does this and at the same time introduce a few API funtions used to access the help text. The relevant api functions are introduced in the various frontends.

kconfig: error out if recursive dependencies are found

2007-05-06T07:20:10Z

Sample: config FOO bool "This is foo" depends on BAR config BAR bool "This is bar" depends on FOO This will result in following error message: error: found recursive dependency: FOO -> BAR -> FOO And will then exit with exit code equal 1 so make will stop.

[PATCH] kconfig: make sym_change_count static, let it be altered by 2 functions only

2006-12-13T17:05:48Z

Those two functions are void sym_set_change_count(int count) and void sym_add_change_count(int count) All write accesses to sym_change_count are replaced by calls to above functions. Variable and changer-functions are moved to confdata.c. IMO thats ok, as sym_change_count is an attribute of the .config's change state.

kconfig: add defconfig_list/module option

2006-06-09T05:31:30Z

This makes it possible to change two options which were hardcoded sofar. 1. Any symbol can now take the role of CONFIG_MODULES 2. The more useful option is to change the list of default file names, which kconfig uses to load the base configuration if .config isn't available.

kconfig: add symbol option config syntax

2006-06-09T05:31:30Z

This adds the general framework to the parser to define options for config symbols with a syntax like: config FOO option bar[="arg"] Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

[PATCH] kconfig: improve error handling in the parser

2005-11-09T15:55:54Z

Add a few error tokens to the parser to catch common errors and print more descriptive error messages. Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel Cc: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] kconfig: simplify symbol type parsing

2005-11-09T15:55:54Z

This simplifies the parser a bit by merging the various symbol types into a single token and adds the type to the keyword hash. Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel Cc: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] kconfig: use gperf for kconfig keywords

2005-11-09T15:55:53Z

Use gperf to generate a hash for the kconfig keywords. This greatly reduces the size of the generated scanner and makes it easier to extend kconfig. Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel Cc: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] kconfig: Fix Kconfig performance bug

2005-11-09T15:55:53Z

When doing its recursive dependency check, scripts/kconfig/conf uses the flag SYMBOL_CHECK_DONE to avoid rechecking a symbol it has already checked. However, that flag is only set at the top level, so if a symbol is first encountered as a dependency of another symbol it will be rechecked every time it is encountered until it's encountered at the top level. This patch adjusts the flag setting so that each symbol will only be checked once, regardless of whether it is first encountered at the top level, or while recursing down from another symbol. On complex configurations, this vastly speeds up scripts/kconfig/conf. The config in the powerpc merge tree is particularly bad: this patch reduces the time for 'scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/powerpc/Kconfig' by a factor of 40 on a G5. That's even including the time to print the config, so the speedup in the actual checking is more likely 2 or 3 orders of magnitude.

[PATCH] kconfig: trivial cleanup

2005-07-28T21:19:01Z

Replace all menu_add_prop mimicking menu_add_prompt with the latter func. I've had to add a return value to menu_add_prompt for one usage. I've rebuilt scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c_shipped by hand to reflect changes in the source (I've not the same Bison version so regenerating it wouldn't have been not a good idea), and compared it with what Roman itself did some time ago, and it's the same. So I guess this can be finally merged. Signed-off-by: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
