Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
all.config.For a fix the diffstat is nice:
6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)The patch reverts these commits:
- 0f855aa64b3f63d35a891510cf7db932a435c116 ("kconfig: add helper to set
config symbol from environment variable")
- 2a113281f5cd2febbab21a93c8943f8d3eece4d3 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
set 64BIT with all*config targets")Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
not needed.With this patch we have following behaviour:
# make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
option \ host arch | 32bit | 64bit
=====================================================
./. | 32bit | 64bit
ARCH=x86 | 32bit | 32bit
ARCH=i386 | 32bit | 32bit
ARCH=x86_64 | 64bit | 64bitThe general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
precedence over the configuration.So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will
be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
other way around.This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
suprises here.make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
and 64-bit using menuconfig.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

Normally generated values (Kconfig entries without a prompt) are cleared as
they are regenerated anyway and so they appear as new should they become
visible and defaults work as expected (once a value is set defaults aren't
used anymore).The detection whether a value is generated or not is only based on its
visibility status, which can quickly change for a lot of symbols by just
removing a single line from .config or adding a dependency to Kconfig as you
noticed.The patch now suppresses this logic when .config and Kconfig aren't in sync
and .config needs to be updated, so that you can remove now a random value
from .config and oldconfig won't reask for many other values.Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

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.Signed-off-by: Karsten Wiese

Run "make xconfig" on a freshly untarred kernel-tree. Look at the floppy disk
icon of the qt application, that has just started: Its in a normal, active
state.Mouse click on it: .config is being saved.
This patch series changes things so taht
after the mouse click on the floppy disk icon, the icon is greyed out.
If you mouse click on it now, nothing happens.If you change some CONFIG_*, the floppy disk icon returns to "active state",
that is, if you mouse click it now, .config is written.This patch:
Returns sym_change_count to reflect the .config's change state.
All read only accesses of
sym_change_count
are replaced by calls to
conf_get_changed()
.
mconfig.c is manipulated to ask for saving only when
conf_get_changed() returned true.Signed-off-by: Karsten Wiese

This fixes bugzilla entry: 7182
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7182With this patch we no longer append the directory part twice
before saving the config file.
This patch has been sent to Roman Zippel for review with no feedback.
It is so obviously simple that this should be OK to apply it anyway.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

Kconfig doesn't currently handle config files with DOS line endings.
While these are, of course, an abomination, etc, etc, it can be handy
to not have to convert them first. It's also a tiny patch and even adds
support for lines ending in just \r or even \n\r.Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox

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.Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

Now that kconfig can load multiple configurations, it becomes simple to
integrate the split config step, by simply comparing the new .config file with
the old auto.conf (and then saving the new auto.conf). A nice side effect is
that this saves a bit of disk space and cache, as no data needs to be read
from or saved into the splitted config files anymore (e.g. include/config is
now 648KB instead of 5.2MB).Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

This fixes one of the worst kbuild warts left - the broken dependencies used
to check and regenerate the .config file. This was done via an indirect
dependency and the .config itself had an empty command, which can cause make
not to reread the changed .config file.Instead of this we generate now a new file include/config/auto.conf from
.config, which is used for kbuild and has the proper dependencies. It's also
the main make target now for all files generated during this step (and thus
replaces include/linux/autoconf.h).This also means we can now relax the syntax requirements for the .config file
and we don't have to rewrite it all the time, i.e. silentoldconfig only
writes .config now when it's necessary to keep it in sync with the Kconfig
files and even this can be suppressed by setting the environment variable
KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE, so the update can (and must) be done manually.Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

During loading special case the first common case (.config), be silent about
it and otherwise mark it as a change that requires saving. Instead output
that the file has been changed. IOW if conf does nothing (special), it's
silent.Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

To enable 'make kernelrelease' earlier now create .kernelrelease when
one of the *config targets are used.
Also introduce KERNELVERSION - only user is kconfig.
KERNELVERSION was needed to display kernel version in menuconfig -
KERNELRELEASE is not valid until configuration has completed.
kconfig files modified to use KERNELVERSION.

Allow to force setting of config variables during all{no,mod,yes,random}config
to a specific value. For that conf first checks the KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
environment variable for a file name, otherwise it checks for
all{no,mod,yes,random}.config and all.config. The file is a normal config
file, which presets the config variables, but they are still subject to normal
dependency checks.Signed-off-by: Roman Zippel

This patch adds i18n support for make *config, allowing users to have the
config process in their own language.No printk was harmed in the process, don't worry, so all the bug reports,
kernel messages, etc, remain in english, just the user tools to configure
the kernel are internationalized.Users not interested in translations can just unset the related LANG,
LC_ALL, etc env variables and have the config process in plain english,
something like:LANG= make menuconfig
is enough for having the whole config process in english. Or just don't
install any translation file.Translations for brazilian portuguese are being done by a team of
volunteers at:http://www.visionflex.inf.br/kernel_ptbr/pmwiki.php/Principal/Traducoes
To start the translation process:
make update-po-config
This will generate the pot template named scripts/kconfig/linux.pot,
copy it to, say, ~/es.po, to start the translation for spanish.To test your translation, as root issue this command:
msgfmt -o /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/linux.mo ~/es.po
Replace "es" with your language code.
Then execute, for instance:
make menuconfig
The current patch doesn't use any optimization to reduce the size of the
generated .mo file, it is possible to use the config option as a key, but
this doesn't prevent the current patch from being used or the translations
done under the current scheme to be in any way lost if we chose to do any
kind of keying.Thanks to Fabricio Vaccari for starting the pt_BR (brazilian portuguese)
translation effort, Thiago Maciera for helping me with the gconf.cc (QT
frontent) i18n coding and to all the volunteers that are already working on
the first translation, to pt_BR.I left the question on whether to ship the translations with the stock kernel
sources to be discussed here, please share your suggestions.Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

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!
