kbuild: Fix compiler warning with assertion when calling 'fwrite' Reinhard Tartler discovered a corner case of calling xfwrite() where the length of the string is zero. Arnaud Lacombe suggested to use assertion for the corner case, as fwrite(3) is currently used: 1) in comment printers. Empty comment are not allowed. 2) in a callback passed to expr_print(), where the string printed is either NULL OR non-empty. 3) in the lexer, auto-generated, and unused. I feel using assertion is a good solution: 1) It cleanly takes care of the above-mentioned corner case. 2) It can be easily disabled by defining NDEBUG. 3) It asserts xfwrite() is simply a wrapper for fwrite().

kconfig: allow use of relations other than (in)equality 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.

kconfig: use hash table to reuse expressions Currently, every expression in Kconfig files produces a new abstract syntax tree (AST), even if it is identical to a previously encountered one. Consider the following code: config FOO bool "FOO" depends on (A || B) && C config BAR bool "BAR" depends on (A || B) && C config BAZ bool "BAZ" depends on A || B The "depends on" lines are similar, but currently a separate AST is allocated for each one. The current data structure looks like this: FOO->dep ==> AND BAR->dep ==> AND BAZ->dep ==> OR / \ / \ / \ OR C OR C A B / \ / \ A B A B This is redundant; FOO->dep and BAR->dep have identical ASTs but different memory instances. We can optimize this; FOO->dep and BAR->dep can share the same AST, and BAZ->dep can reference its sub tree. The optimized data structure looks like this: FOO->dep, BAR->dep ==> AND / \ BAZ->dep ==> OR C / \ A B This commit introduces a hash table to keep track of allocated expressions. If an identical expression is found, it is reused. This does not necessarily result in memory savings, as menu_finalize() transforms expressions without freeing up stale ones. This will be addressed later. One optimization that can be easily implemented is caching the expression's value. Once FOO's dependency, (A || B) && C, is calculated, it can be cached, eliminating the need to recalculate it for BAR.

kconfig: remove S_OTHER symbol type and correct dependency tracking 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.

kconfig: refactor choice value calculation Handling choices has always been in a PITA in Kconfig. For example, fixes and reverts were repeated for randconfig with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: - 422c809f03f0 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 23a5dfdad22a ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") - 8357b48549e1 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 490f16171119 ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") As these commits pointed out, randconfig does not randomize choices when KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is used. This issue still remains. [Test Case] choice prompt "choose" config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice $ echo > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 randconfig The output is always as follows: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set Not only randconfig, but other all*config variants are also broken with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG. With the same Kconfig, $ echo '# CONFIG_A is not set' > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 allyesconfig You will get this: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set This is incorrect because it does not respect all.config. The correct output should be: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y To handle user inputs more accurately, this commit refactors the code based on the following principles: - When a user value is given, Kconfig must set it immediately. Do not defer it by setting SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES. - The SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag must not be cleared, unless a new config file is loaded. Kconfig must not forget user inputs. In addition, user values for choices must be managed with priority. If user inputs conflict within a choice block, the newest value wins. The values given by randconfig have lower priority than explicit user inputs. This commit implements it by using a linked list. Every time a choice block gets a new input, it is moved to the top of the list. Let me explain how it works. Let's say, we have a choice block that consists of five symbols: A, B, C, D, and E. Initially, the linked list looks like this: A(=?) --> B(=?) --> C(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Suppose randconfig is executed with the following KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: CONFIG_C=y # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_D=y First, CONFIG_C=y is read. C is set to 'y' and moved to the top. C(=y) --> A(=?) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Next, '# CONFIG_A is not set' is read. A is set to 'n' and moved to the top. A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Then, 'CONFIG_D=y' is read. D is set to 'y' and moved to the top. D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> E(=?) Lastly, randconfig shuffles the order of the remaining symbols, resulting in: D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=y) --> E(=y) or D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> E(=y) --> B(=y) When calculating the output, the linked list is traversed and the first visible symbol with 'y' is taken. In this case, it is D if visible. If D is hidden by 'depends on', the next node, A, is examined. Since it is already specified as 'n', it is skipped. Next, C is checked, and selected if it is visible. If C is also invisible, either B or E is chosen as a result of the randomization. If B and E are also invisible, the linked list is traversed in the reverse order, and the least prioritized 'n' symbol is chosen. It is A in this case. Now, Kconfig remembers all user values. This is a big difference from the previous implementation, where Kconfig would forget CONFIG_C=y when CONFIG_D=y appeared in the same input file. The new appaorch respects user-specified values as much as possible. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

kconfig: refactor choice value calculation Handling choices has always been in a PITA in Kconfig. For example, fixes and reverts were repeated for randconfig with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: - 422c809f03f0 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 23a5dfdad22a ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") - 8357b48549e1 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 490f16171119 ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") As these commits pointed out, randconfig does not randomize choices when KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is used. This issue still remains. [Test Case] choice prompt "choose" config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice $ echo > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 randconfig The output is always as follows: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set Not only randconfig, but other all*config variants are also broken with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG. With the same Kconfig, $ echo '# CONFIG_A is not set' > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 allyesconfig You will get this: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set This is incorrect because it does not respect all.config. The correct output should be: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y To handle user inputs more accurately, this commit refactors the code based on the following principles: - When a user value is given, Kconfig must set it immediately. Do not defer it by setting SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES. - The SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag must not be cleared, unless a new config file is loaded. Kconfig must not forget user inputs. In addition, user values for choices must be managed with priority. If user inputs conflict within a choice block, the newest value wins. The values given by randconfig have lower priority than explicit user inputs. This commit implements it by using a linked list. Every time a choice block gets a new input, it is moved to the top of the list. Let me explain how it works. Let's say, we have a choice block that consists of five symbols: A, B, C, D, and E. Initially, the linked list looks like this: A(=?) --> B(=?) --> C(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Suppose randconfig is executed with the following KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: CONFIG_C=y # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_D=y First, CONFIG_C=y is read. C is set to 'y' and moved to the top. C(=y) --> A(=?) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Next, '# CONFIG_A is not set' is read. A is set to 'n' and moved to the top. A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Then, 'CONFIG_D=y' is read. D is set to 'y' and moved to the top. D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> E(=?) Lastly, randconfig shuffles the order of the remaining symbols, resulting in: D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=y) --> E(=y) or D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> E(=y) --> B(=y) When calculating the output, the linked list is traversed and the first visible symbol with 'y' is taken. In this case, it is D if visible. If D is hidden by 'depends on', the next node, A, is examined. Since it is already specified as 'n', it is skipped. Next, C is checked, and selected if it is visible. If C is also invisible, either B or E is chosen as a result of the randomization. If B and E are also invisible, the linked list is traversed in the reverse order, and the least prioritized 'n' symbol is chosen. It is A in this case. Now, Kconfig remembers all user values. This is a big difference from the previous implementation, where Kconfig would forget CONFIG_C=y when CONFIG_D=y appeared in the same input file. The new appaorch respects user-specified values as much as possible. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet direct dependencies The "select" statement in Kconfig files allows the enabling of options even if they have unmet direct dependencies (i.e. "depends on" expands to "no"). Currently, the "depends on" clauses are used in calculating the visibility but they do not affect the reverse dependencies in any way. The patch introduces additional tracking of the "depends on" statements and prints a warning on selecting an option if its direct dependencies are not met.

Kconfig: Introduce the "imply" keyword 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.

kconfig: fix missing choice values in auto.conf Since commit 00c864f8903d ("kconfig: allow all config targets to write auto.conf if missing"), Kconfig creates include/config/auto.conf in the defconfig stage when it is missing. Joonas Kylmälä reported incorrect auto.conf generation under some circumstances. To reproduce it, apply the following diff: | --- a/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig | +++ b/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig | @@ -345,14 +345,7 @@ CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_MIDI=y | CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_HID=y | CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_UVC=y | CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_PRINTER=y | -CONFIG_USB_ZERO=m | -CONFIG_USB_AUDIO=m | -CONFIG_USB_ETH=m | -CONFIG_USB_G_NCM=m | -CONFIG_USB_GADGETFS=m | -CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=m | -CONFIG_USB_MASS_STORAGE=m | -CONFIG_USB_G_SERIAL=m | +CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y | CONFIG_MMC=y | CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=y | CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PLTFM=y And then, run: $ make ARCH=arm mrproper imx_v6_v7_defconfig You will see CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y is correctly contained in the .config, but not in the auto.conf. Please note drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig is included from a choice block in drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig. So USB_FUNCTIONFS is a choice value. This is probably a similar situation described in commit beaaddb62540 ("kconfig: tests: test defconfig when two choices interact"). When sym_calc_choice() is called, the choice symbol forgets the SYMBOL_DEF_USER unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by the user. The choice symbol is given just one chance to recall it because set_all_choice_values() is called if SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES is set. When sym_calc_choice() is called again, the choice symbol forgets it forever, since SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES is a one-time aid. Hence, we cannot call sym_clear_all_valid() again and again. It is crazy to repeat set and unset of internal flags. However, we cannot simply get rid of "sym->flags &= flags | ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;" Doing so would re-introduce the problem solved by commit 5d09598d488f ("kconfig: fix new choices being skipped upon config update"). To work around the issue, conf_write_autoconf() stopped calling sym_clear_all_valid(). conf_write() must be changed accordingly. Currently, it clears SYMBOL_WRITE after the symbol is written into the .config file. This is needed to prevent it from writing the same symbol multiple times in case the symbol is declared in two or more locations. I added the new flag SYMBOL_WRITTEN, to track the symbols that have been written. Anyway, this is a cheesy workaround in order to suppress the issue as far as defconfig is concerned. Handling of choices is totally broken. sym_clear_all_valid() is called every time a user touches a symbol from the GUI interface. To reproduce it, just add a new symbol drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig, then touch around unrelated symbols from menuconfig. USB_FUNCTIONFS will disappear from the .config file. I added the Fixes tag since it is more fatal than before. But, this has been broken since long long time before, and still it is. We should take a closer look to fix this correctly somehow.

With the same Kconfig, $ echo '# CONFIG_A is not set' > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 allyesconfig You will get this: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set This is incorrect because it does not respect all.config. The correct output should be: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y To handle user inputs more accurately, this commit refactors the code based on the following principles: - When a user value is given, Kconfig must set it immediately. Do not defer it by setting SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES. - The SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag must not be cleared, unless a new config file is loaded. Kconfig must not forget user inputs. In addition, user values for choices must be managed with priority. If user inputs conflict within a choice block, the newest value wins. The values given by randconfig have lower priority than explicit user inputs. This commit implements it by using a linked list. Every time a choice block gets a new input, it is moved to the top of the list. Let me explain how it works. Let's say, we have a choice block that consists of five symbols: A, B, C, D, and E. Initially, the linked list looks like this: A(=?) --> B(=?) --> C(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Suppose randconfig is executed with the following KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: CONFIG_C=y # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_D=y First, CONFIG_C=y is read. C is set to 'y' and moved to the top. C(=y) --> A(=?) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Next, '# CONFIG_A is not set' is read. A is set to 'n' and moved to the top. A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Then, 'CONFIG_D=y' is read. D is set to 'y' and moved to the top. D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> E(=?) Lastly, randconfig shuffles the order of the remaining symbols, resulting in: D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=y) --> E(=y) or D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> E(=y) --> B(=y) When calculating the output, the linked list is traversed and the first visible symbol with 'y' is taken. In this case, it is D if visible. If D is hidden by 'depends on', the next node, A, is examined. Since it is already specified as 'n', it is skipped. Next, C is checked, and selected if it is visible. If C is also invisible, either B or E is chosen as a result of the randomization. If B and E are also invisible, the linked list is traversed in the reverse order, and the least prioritized 'n' symbol is chosen. It is A in this case. Now, Kconfig remembers all user values. This is a big difference from the previous implementation, where Kconfig would forget CONFIG_C=y when CONFIG_D=y appeared in the same input file. The new appaorch respects user-specified values as much as possible. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

For example, fixes and reverts were repeated for randconfig with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: - 422c809f03f0 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 23a5dfdad22a ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") - 8357b48549e1 ("kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG") - 490f16171119 ("Revert "kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG"") As these commits pointed out, randconfig does not randomize choices when KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is used. This issue still remains. [Test Case] choice prompt "choose" config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice $ echo > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 randconfig The output is always as follows: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set Not only randconfig, but other all*config variants are also broken with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG. With the same Kconfig, $ echo '# CONFIG_A is not set' > all.config $ make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 allyesconfig You will get this: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set This is incorrect because it does not respect all.config. The correct output should be: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y To handle user inputs more accurately, this commit refactors the code based on the following principles: - When a user value is given, Kconfig must set it immediately. Do not defer it by setting SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES. - The SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag must not be cleared, unless a new config file is loaded. Kconfig must not forget user inputs. In addition, user values for choices must be managed with priority. If user inputs conflict within a choice block, the newest value wins. The values given by randconfig have lower priority than explicit user inputs. This commit implements it by using a linked list. Every time a choice block gets a new input, it is moved to the top of the list. Let me explain how it works. Let's say, we have a choice block that consists of five symbols: A, B, C, D, and E. Initially, the linked list looks like this: A(=?) --> B(=?) --> C(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Suppose randconfig is executed with the following KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG: CONFIG_C=y # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_D=y First, CONFIG_C=y is read. C is set to 'y' and moved to the top. C(=y) --> A(=?) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Next, '# CONFIG_A is not set' is read. A is set to 'n' and moved to the top. A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> D(=?) --> E(=?) Then, 'CONFIG_D=y' is read. D is set to 'y' and moved to the top. D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=?) --> E(=?) Lastly, randconfig shuffles the order of the remaining symbols, resulting in: D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> B(=y) --> E(=y) or D(=y) --> A(=n) --> C(=y) --> E(=y) --> B(=y) When calculating the output, the linked list is traversed and the first visible symbol with 'y' is taken. In this case, it is D if visible. If D is hidden by 'depends on', the next node, A, is examined. Since it is already specified as 'n', it is skipped. Next, C is checked, and selected if it is visible. If C is also invisible, either B or E is chosen as a result of the randomization. If B and E are also invisible, the linked list is traversed in the reverse order, and the least prioritized 'n' symbol is chosen. It is A in this case. Now, Kconfig remembers all user values. This is a big difference from the previous implementation, where Kconfig would forget CONFIG_C=y when CONFIG_D=y appeared in the same input file. The new appaorch respects user-specified values as much as possible. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

kconfig: Print reverse dependencies in groups 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].

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
