  • In 60f33b8 (kconfig: get rid of stray a.o, support ncursesw, 2006-01-15),
    support to link menuconfig with ncursesw library was added. To compute
    the linker command option -l, we check "libncursesw.{so,a,dylib}" to allow
    ncursesw to be used as a replacement ncurses. However, when checking what
    header file to include, we do not check /usr/include/ncursesw directory.

    Add /usr/include/ncursesw to the list of directories that are checked.
    With this patch, on my Debian Lenny box with libncursesw5-dev package but
    not libncurses5-dev package, I can say "make menuconfig".

  • Truncate list items to fit in a single line, otherwise those items
    which have long prompts will cover some other items.

    This follows the behavior of menubox.

  • Run:
    make ARCH=arm menuconfig

    And then select "System Type" -> "ARM system type". The kconfig
    "choice" menu at this point looks empty.

    It's because config ARCH_S3C2410 has a long prompt:

    config ARCH_S3C2410
    bool "Samsung S3C2410, S3C2412, S3C2413, S3C2416, S3C2440, S3C2442, S3C2443, S3C2450"
    ...

    menuconfig centers the checklist according to this prompt without
    considering the width of the list, and then things get wrong.

  • Usage:
    Press to show all config symbols which have prompts.

    Quote Tim Bird:

    | I've been bitten by this numerous times. I most often
    | use ftrace on ARM, but when I go back to x86, I almost
    | always go through a sequence of searching for the
    | function graph tracer in the menus, then realizing it's
    | completely missing until I disable CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.
    |
    | Is there any way to have the menu item appear, but be
    | unsettable unless the SIZE option is disabled? 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 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.

    Exmaple:

    --- Tracers
    -*- Kernel Function Tracer
    - - Kernel Function Graph Tracer
    [*] Interrupts-off Latency Tracer
    - - Preemption-off Latency Tracer
    [*] Sysprof Tracer

    Here you can see 2 tracers are not selectable, and then can find
    out how to make them selectable.

  • Kconfig is powerfull tool. So powerfull that more and more software
    projects are using it for configuration. So instead of fixing some of
    them one by one, lets fix it in kernel and wait for sync.

    This work was originaly done for PTXdist - GPL licensed build system for
    userlands and cross-compilers, but it will not hurt kernel kconfig
    either. PTXdist menuconfig now works on Windows linked with PDCurses and
    compiled using MinGW - there is no termios and signals.

    * Do not include and (comes from times when
    lxdialog was separate process)
    * Do not mess with termios directly and let curses tell screen size.
    Comment to commit c8dc68ad0fbd934e78e913b8a8d7b45945db4930 says
    check for screen size could be removed later, but because it didn't
    happen for more than year I left it here as well.
    * Save cursor position added by Sam

  • With this patch when ncurses-devel (or whatever it is named)
    is missing trying to run menuconfig will result in this:

    $ make menuconfig
    HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o
    HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/kxgettext.o
    *** Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the
    *** required header files.
    *** 'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries.
    ***
    *** Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again.
    ***
    make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog] Error 1
    make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

    Much better than before where we just listed some build errors.
    The other *config targets will work indepenednt on ncurses
    being present or not.

    In mconf try to behave sensibly when a dialog routine returns
    -ERRDISPLAYTOOSMALL.

    It may make sense to remove it later, but thats anyway what

  • is used to step one back in the dialogs.
    When lxdialog became built-in pressing once would cause one step back
    and pressing would cause two steps back.
    This patch - based on concept from Roman Zippel -
    makes one a noop and pressing will cause one step backward.

    In addition the final yes/no dialog now has the option to go back to the
    the kernel configuration. So if you get too far out you can now go back
    to configuring the kernel without saving and starting all over again.

  • lxdialog was previously called as an external program causing screen
    to flicker when used. With this patch lxdialog is now built-in.
    It is loosly based om previous work by: Petr Baudis

    Following is a list of changes:
    o Moved build of dialog routings to kconfig Makefile
    o menubox + checklist uses a new item list to hold all menu items
    o in util.c implmented helper function to deal with item list
    o menubox now uses parameters to save scroll state (avoids temp file)
    o textbox now get text to be displayed as parameter and not a file
    o make sure to properly delete subwin's before main windows
    o killed unused files: lxdialog.c msgbox.c
    o modified return value for ESC to match direct calling
    o in a few places the code has been adjusted to 80 char wide
    o in textbox a small refactoring was made to make code remotely readable
    o in mconf removed all unused stuff (functions/variables)

    Following is a list of know short comings:
    a) pressing ESC twice will be interpreted as two ESC presses
    b) resize does not work. menuconfig needs to be restarted to be adjusted

  • The bluetitle theme is a slightly modified version of the colorscheme
    that -mm users has been used to. The bluetitle is more readable especially
    on some LCD screens so it is now default.
    Anyone that really wants the old color selection can get it by selecting
    the classic color theme:
    make MENUCONFIG_COLOR=classic menuconfig

    The bluetitle theme was modified by Roman Zippel
    to further improve readability on LCD screens.

  • The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
    Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
    even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both
    the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

    For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

    Changes in this patch:
    - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
    - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
    - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

  • While running "make menuconfig" and "make mrproper"
    some people experienced that /dev/null suddenly changed
    permissions or suddenly became a regular file.
    The main reason was that /dev/null was used as output
    to gcc in the check-lxdialog.sh script and gcc did
    some strange things with the output file; in this
    case /dev/null when it errorred out.

    Following patch implements a suggestion
    from Bryan O'Sullivan to
    use gcc -print-file-name=libxxx.so.

    Also the Makefile is adjusted to not resolve value of
    HOST_EXTRACFLAGS and HOST_LOADLIBES until they are actually used.
    This prevents us from calling gcc when running make *clean/mrproper

    Thanks to Eyal Lebedinsky and
    Jean Delvare for the first error reports.

  • scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/check-lxdialog.sh uses gcc to check for
    what libraries are present. Redirect output to /dev/null
    so we do not generate an a.out.
    Also included support for ncursesw - so if present prefer that
    instead of ncurses.
    The order is now (first is preferred):
    1) ncursesw
    2) ncurses
    3) curses

    The latter is to support SunOS.
