1482834971 kconfig: fix make oldconfig
Linus wrote:
 This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it
 used to be. In a very annoying way.

 I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4c0
 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that
 thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but
 actively breaks them.

The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident.  Fix
this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing
to ask about.

80c00ba942 kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL on the command line
It is now possible to assign options to AS and CC
on the command line - which is only used for built-in code.

{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL was used both in the top-level Makefile
in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
additional options to AS, CC without overriding
the original value.

Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL
that is used by arch specific files and free up
{A,C}FLAGS_KERNEL so they can be assigned on
the command line.

All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.

It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD
on the command line - which is only used when building modules.

{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile

Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both
AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped.
So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by
two assignmnets.

Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped
without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage
from this.

7cf3d73b43 kconfig: add savedefconfig
savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file
named "defconfig".

The config symbols are saved in the same order as
they appear in the menu structure so it should
be possible to map them to the relevant menus
if desired.

The implementation was tested against several minimal
configs for arm which was created using brute-force.

There was one regression related to default numbers
which had their valid range further limited by another symbol.

Sample:

config FOO
	int "foo"
	default 4

config BAR
	int "bar"
	range 0 FOO

If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3.
But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4.

This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK,
and the fix was non-trivial.
So it was documented in the code and left as is.

d595cea624 kconfig: print more info when we see a recursive dependency
Consider following kconfig file:

config TEST1
	bool "test 1"
	depends on TEST2

config TEST2
	bool "test 2"
	depends on TEST1

Previously kconfig would report:

foo:6:error: found recursive dependency: TEST2 -> TEST1 -> TEST2

With the following patch kconfig reports:
foo:5:error: recursive dependency detected!
foo:5:  symbol TEST2 depends on TEST1
foo:1:  symbol TEST1 depends on TEST2

Note that we now report where the offending symbols are defined.
This can be a great help for complex situations involving
several files.

Patch is originally from Roman Zippel with a few adjustments by Sam.

59e89e3ddf kconfig: save location of config symbols
When we add a new config symbol save the file/line
so we later can refer to their location.

The information is saved as a property to a config symbol
because we may have multiple definitions of the same symbol.

This has the side-effect that a symbol always has
at least one property.

861b4ea4cc kconfig: change nonint_oldconfig to listnewconfig
Rename to a name that better match the other kconfig targets.

listnewconfig shall read as:

- list new options compared to current configuration

New options are now written to stdout so one can redirect the output.

Do not exit with an error code if there is new options.

These are feature changes compared to the original
nonint_oldconfig - but as this feature has not yet been in a
released kernel it should not matter.

It is still possible to do:

make listnewconfig
lookup new config options in Kconfig*
edit .config

4062f1a4c0 kconfig: use long options in conf
The list of options supported by conf is growing
and their abbreviation did not resemble anything usefull.

So drop the single letter options in favour of long options.

The long options are named equal to what we know from
the make target.
The internal implmentation was changed to match this,
resulting in much more readable code.

Support for short options is dropped - no one is supposed
to call this program direct anyway.

ac1ffde1ba kconfig: fix MODULES-related bug in case of no .config
There seems to be a kconfig bug due to MODULES not always being
evaluated if no .config is found. Take the following Kconfig as an
example:

config MODULES
	def_bool y

config FOO
	def_tristate m

With no .config, the following configuration is generated:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=y

With an empty .config, the following:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=m

Tristate choice statements can also exhibit the problem, due to having an
implicit rev_dep (select) containing "m".

The problem is that MODULES is never evaluted in conf_read_simple() unless
there's a .config. The following patch fixes this.

a484e54fae tracing: Fix $mcount_regex for MIPS in recordmcount.pl
I found this issue in a locally patched 2.6.32.x, current kernels have
moved the offending code to an __init function which is skipped by
recordmcount.pl, so the bug is not currently being exercised.
However, I think the patch is still a good idea, to avoid future
problems if _mcount were to ever have its address taken in normal
code.

This is what I originally saw:

    Although arch/mips/kernel/ftrace.c is built without -pg, and thus
    contains no calls to _mcount, it does use the address of _mcount
    in ftrace_make_nop().  This was causing relocations to be emitted
    for _mcount which recordmcount.pl erronously took to be _mcount
    call sites.  The result was that the text of ftrace_make_nop()
    would be patched with garbage leading to a system crash.

In non-module code, all _mcount call sites will have R_MIPS_26
relocations, so we restrict $mcount_regex to only match on these.

6dc0c2f338 kbuild: Make the setlocalversion script POSIX-compliant
The 'source' builtin is a bash alias to the '.' (dot) builtin. While the
former is supported only by bash, the latter is specified in POSIX and
works fine with all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of.

The '$_' special parameter is specific to bash. It is partially
supported in dash too but it always evaluates to the current script path
(which causes the script to enter a loop recursively re-executing
itself). This is why I have replaced the two occurences of '$_' with the
explicit parameter.

The 'local' builtin is another example of bash-specific code. Although
it is supported by all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of, it is not
part of POSIX specification and thus the code should not rely on it
assigning a specific value to the local variable. Moreover, the 'posh'
shell has a limited version of 'local' builtin not supporting direct
variable assignments. Thus, I have broken one of the 'local'
declarations down into a (non-POSIX) 'local' declaration and a plain
(POSIX-compliant) variable assignment.

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.

1e9dea2a60 Add support for the C variable in the coccicheck script
This patch makes it possible to use the Coccinelle checker with the C
variable of the build system. To check only newly edited code, the
following command may be used:

'make C={1,2} CHECK="scripts/coccicheck"'

This runs every semantic patch in scripts/coccinelle by default. The
COCCI variable may additionally be used to only apply a single
semantic patch.

09155120cf kbuild: Clean up and speed up the localversion logic
Now that we run scripts/setlocalversion during every build, it makes
sense to move all the localversion logic there. This cleans up the
toplevel Makefile and also makes sure that the script is called only
once in 'make prepare' (previously, it would be called every time due to
a variable expansion in an ifneq statement). No user-visible change is
intended, unless one runs the setlocalversion script directly.

It just hit me.
It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows:
        return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset +
               (r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr);

E.g. for the first rodata r entry:
r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr
and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something
equally wise.

74425eee71 Add a target to use the Coccinelle checker
A 'coccicheck' target is added. It can be called with four different
modes. Each one generates a different kind of output, i.e. context,
patch, org, report, according to the corresponding mode to be
activated.

The new target calls the 'coccicheck' front-end in the 'scripts'
directory with the MODE argument. Every SmPL file in the
subdirectories of 'scripts/coccinelle' is then given to the front-end
and applied to the entire source tree.

The four modes behave as follows:

'report' generates a list in the following format:
  file:line:column-column: message

'patch' proposes a fix, when possible.

'context' highlights lines of interest and their context in a
diff-like style. Lines of interest are indicated with '-'.

'org' generates a report in the Org mode format of Emacs.
