However, a string manipulation in the function search_conf made the assumption
that it is the same, which led to messing up some search results, especially

While this used to be needed for the Linux kernel, we now have an

Furthermore, kconfig is extensively used out of the Linux kernel, and
other projects may have another meaning for a symbol named 'MODULES'.

This patch changes the way we enable/disable tristates: if a symbol was
found with 'option modules' attached to it, then that symbol controls
enabling tristates. Otherwise, tristates are disabled, even if a symbol

    include/config/auto.conf:3014:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for
    HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE

Seen by Linus with the merge in aa8032b (sequence to reproduce by Michal):
    git checkout 1fe0135
    make mrproper
    make allmodconfig
    make silentoldconfig
    git checkout aa8032b
    make allmodconfig

Since HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE changed from tristate to bool in aa8032b, it was
previously set to 'm' in auto.conf by the first allmodconfig+silentoldconfig,
but then was set to 'y' by the second allmodconfig. Then the second
silentoldconfig prints the warning.

The warning in this case is a spurious warning, which happens at the time
kconfig tries to detect symbols that have changed, to touch the empty
header files in include/config used for dependency-tracking by make.

Silence the warning when we read the old auto.conf file, since it is
perfectly legit that a symbol changed type since the previous call.

kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG

Currently, randconfig does randomise choice entries, unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
is specified.

For example, given those two files (Thomas' test-case):

    ---8<--- Config.test.in
    config OPTIONA
        bool "Option A"

    choice
        prompt "This is a choice"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONA
        bool "Choice Option A"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONB
        bool "Choice Option B"

    endchoice

    config OPTIONB
        bool "Option B"
    ---8<--- Config.test.in

    ---8<--- config.defaults
    CONFIG_OPTIONA=y
    ---8<--- config.defaults

And running:
    ./config/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does properly randomise the two choice symbols (and the two booleans).

However, running:
    KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=config.defaults \
    ./config/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does *not* reandomise the two choice entries, and only CHOICE_OPTIONA
will ever be selected. (OPTIONA will always be set (expected), and
OPTIONB will be be properly randomised (expected).)

This patch defers setting that a choice has a value until a symbol for
that choice is indeed set, so that choices are properly randomised when
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set, but not if a symbol for that choice is set.

kconfig: sort found symbols by relevance

When searching for symbols, return the symbols sorted by relevance.

Sorting is done as thus:
  - first, symbols that match exactly

Since the search can be a regexp, it is possible that more than one symbol

10 years agokconfig/conf: fix randconfig setting multiple symbols in a choice

kconfig/conf: fix randconfig setting multiple symbols in a choice

Currently, randconfig may set more than one symbol in a given choice.
Given this config file:
    config A
        bool "A"
    if A
    choice
        bool "B/C/D"
    config B
        bool "B"
    config C
        bool "C"
    config D

Then randconfig generates such .config files (case where A is not set is not
shown below for brevity), and where only the right-most .config is valid:
  CONFIG_A=y                  CONFIG_A=y                  CONFIG_A=y
  CONFIG_B=y                  CONFIG_B=y                  CONFIG_B=y
  CONFIG_C=y                  # CONFIG_C is not set       # CONFIG_C is not set
  # CONFIG_D is not set       CONFIG_D=y                  # CONFIG_D is not set

That is, in a randomised choice, the first symbol is always selected,
and at most one other symbol may be selected.

This is due to symbol randomised in a choice not being properly flagged
as having a value.

Fix that by flagging those symbols adequately: have a user-defined value,
and be not valid (to force recalculation of the symbol).

Note: if the choice is not conditional, then the randomisation is properly
done.

10 years agokconfig/menu.c: fix multiple references to expressions in menu_add_prop()

kconfig/menu.c: fix multiple references to expressions in menu_add_prop()

menu_add_prop() applies upper menus' visibilities to actual prompts
by AND-ing the prompts visibilities with the upper menus ones.

This creates a further reference to the menu's visibilities and when
the expression reduction functions do their work, they may remove or
modify expressions that have multiple references, thus causing
unpredictable side-effects.

The following example Kconfig constructs a case where this causes
problems: a menu and a prompt which's visibilities depend on the same
symbol.  When invoking mconf with this Kconfig and pressing "Z" we
see a problem caused by a free'd expression still referenced by the
menu's visibility:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
mainmenu "Kconfig Testing Configuration"

config VISIBLE
def_bool n

config Placeholder
bool "Place holder"

menu "Invisible"
visible if VISIBLE

config TEST_VAR
bool "Test option" if VISIBLE

endmenu

This patch fixes this problem by creating copies of the menu's
visibility expressions before AND-ing them with the prompt's one.

10 years agokconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
Yann E. MORIN [Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:34:10 +0000 (16:34 +0100)]
kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG

Currently, randconfig does randomise choice entries, unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
is specified.

For example, given those two files (Thomas' test-case):

    ---8<--- Config.test.in
    config OPTIONA
        bool "Option A"

    choice
        prompt "This is a choice"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONA
        bool "Choice Option A"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONB
        bool "Choice Option B"

    endchoice

    config OPTIONB
        bool "Option B"
    ---8<--- Config.test.in

    ---8<--- config.defaults
    CONFIG_OPTIONA=y
    ---8<--- config.defaults

And running:
    ./scripts/kconfig/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does properly randomise the two choice symbols (and the two booleans).

However, running:
    KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=config.defaults \
    ./scripts/kconfig/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does *not* reandomise the two choice entries, and only CHOICE_OPTIONA
will ever be selected. (OPTIONA will always be set (expected), and
OPTIONB will be be properly randomised (expected).)

This patch defers setting that a choice has a value until a symbol for
that choice is indeed set, so that choices are properly randomised when
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set, but not if a symbol for that choice is set.

Also, as a side-efect, this patch fixes the following case:

    ---8<---
    choice
    config OPTION_A
        bool "Option A"
    config OPTION_B
        bool "Option B"
    config OPTION_C
        bool "Option C"
    endchoice
    ---8<---

which could previously generate such .config files:

    ---8<---                            ---8<---
    CONFIG_OPTION_A=y                   CONFIG_OPTION_A=y
    CONFIG_OPTION_B=y                   # CONFIG_OPTION_B is not set
    # CONFIG_OPTION_C is not set        CONFIG_OPTION_C=y
    ---8<---                            ---8<---

Ie., the first entry in a choice is always set, plus zero or one of
the other options may be set.

This patch ensures that only one option may be set for a choice.

10 years agokconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
Yann E. MORIN [Sun, 10 Mar 2013 15:34:10 +0000 (16:34 +0100)]
kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG

Currently, randconfig does randomise choice entries, unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
is specified.

For example, given those two files (Thomas' test-case):

    ---8<--- Config.test.in
    config OPTIONA
        bool "Option A"

    choice
        prompt "This is a choice"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONA
        bool "Choice Option A"

    config CHOICE_OPTIONB
        bool "Choice Option B"

    endchoice

    config OPTIONB
        bool "Option B"
    ---8<--- Config.test.in

    ---8<--- config.defaults
    CONFIG_OPTIONA=y
    ---8<--- config.defaults

And running:
    ./config/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does properly randomise the two choice symbols (and the two booleans).

However, running:
    KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=config.defaults \
    ./config/conf --randconfig Config.test.in

does *not* reandomise the two choice entries, and only CHOICE_OPTIONA
will ever be selected. (OPTIONA will always be set (expected), and
OPTIONB will be be properly randomised (expected).)

This patch defers setting that a choice has a value until a symbol for
that choice is indeed set, so that choices are properly randomised when
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set, but not if a symbol for that choice is set.

Also, as a side-efect, this patch fixes the following case:

    ---8<---
    choice
    config OPTION_A
        bool "Option A"
    config OPTION_B
        bool "Option B"
    config OPTION_C
        bool "Option C"
    endchoice
    ---8<---

which could previously generate such .config files:

    ---8<---                            ---8<---
    CONFIG_OPTION_A=y                   CONFIG_OPTION_A=y
    CONFIG_OPTION_B=y                   # CONFIG_OPTION_B is not set
    # CONFIG_OPTION_C is not set        CONFIG_OPTION_C=y
    ---8<---                            ---8<---

Ie., the first entry in a choice is always set, plus zero or one of
the other options may be set.

This patch ensures that only one option may be set for a choice.

Because the modules' symbole (CONFIG_MODULES) may not yet be set when
we check a symbol's tristate capabilty, we'll always find that tristate
symbols are booleans, even if we randomly decided that to enable modules:
sym_get_type(sym) always return boolean for tristates when modules_sym
has not been previously set to 'y' *and* its value calculated *and* its
visibility calculated, both of which only occur after we randomly assign
values to symbols.

Fix that by looking at the raw type of symbols. Tristate set to 'm' will
be promoted to 'y' when their values will be later calculated.

carl9170 firmware: fix max beacon length

According to AR9170's data sheet, the
beacon length register only cares about
bits 8:0. So the max length [with 4
reserved bytes for the FCS] is at 511.

Note:

Because the beacon has to be stored in the
DMA memory region, we have to be careful
so we don't waste precious memory due to
alignment and padding. Therefore I decided
to reduce the max beacon length even more
down to 480 bytes. [This saves one 320 byte
DMA block from becoming unused padding, when
the default 2 vif configuration is selected].
