284026cdfb kconfig: do not hardcode ".config" filename
Rather than hardcoding ".config" use conf_get_configname(), which also
respects the environment variable KCONFIG_CONFIG.

This fixes "make silentoldconfig" when KCONFIG_CONFIG is used and also
suggests the given filename for "Load" and "Save as" in qconf.

b0fe551000 kconfig: improve seed in randconfig
'make randconfig' uses glibc's rand function, and the seed of
that PRNG is set via:

			srand(time(NULL));

But 'time()' only increases once every second - freezing the
randconfig result within a single second.

My Nehalem testbox does randconfig much faster than 1 second
 and i have a few scripts that do 'randconfig until condition X'
loops.

Those scripts currently waste a lot of CPU time due to randconfig
changing its seed only once per second currently.

Change the seed to be micrseconds based. (I checked the statistical
spread of the seed - the now.tv_sec*now.tv_usec multiplication
there further improves it.)

204c96f609 kconfig: fix silentoldconfig
Recent changes to oldconfig have mixed up the silentoldconfig handling,
so this fixes that by clearly separating that special mode, e.g.
KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE is only relevant here, the .config is written as
needed.

This will also properly close Bug 11230.

09748e178b kconfig: make defconfig is no longer chatty
make defconfig generated a lot of output
then noone actually read.
Use conf_set_all_new_symbols() to generate the default
configuration and avoid the chatty output.

A typical run now looks like this:
$ make  defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'i386_defconfig'
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:13:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol SEMAPHORE_SLEEPERS
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:176:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol PREEMPT_BKL
...
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:1386:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol INSTRUMENTATION
$

As an added benefit we now clearly see the warnings generated
in the start of the process.

cd9140e1e7 kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty
Previously when running "make oldconfig" we saw all the propmt lines
from kconfig and noone actully read this.

With this patch the user will only see output if there is new symbols.
This will be seen as "make oldconfig" runs which does not generate any output.

A typical run now looks like this:

$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
$

If a new symbol is found then we restart the config process like this:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* General setup
*
Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers (EXPERIMENTAL) [Y/n/?] y
Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) []
...

The bahaviour is similar to what we know when running the implicit
oldconfig target "make silentoldconfig".
"make silentoldconfig" are run as part of the kernel build process
if the configuration has changed.

f5eaa323eb kconfig: tristate choices with mixed tristate and boolean values
Change kconfig behavior so that mixing bool and tristate config
settings in a choice is possible and has the desired effect of offering
just the tristate options individually if the choice gets set to M, and
a normal boolean selection if the choice gets set to Y.

Also fix scripts/kconfig/conf's handling of children of choice values -
there may be more than one immediate child, and all of them need to be
processed.

2f4b489b77 kconfig: use getopt() in conf.c for handling command line arguments
Switch from doing our own parsing of command line arguments to
using getopt(3) to do it.  Aside from simplifying things, this allows us to
specify multiple arguments; the old code could only accept two arguments
(input_mode and kconfig name).

Note some subtle changes:
 - The argument '-?' is no longer supported.
 - '-h' is not treated as an error, so output goes to stdout, and we
   exit with '0'.
 - There is no compatibility checking amongst arguments; the last option
   will simply override earlier options.  For example, 'conf -n -y foo'
   is perfectly valid now (input_mode will be set_yes).  Previously, that
   would have been an error ("can't find file -y").

6840999b19 x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config
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:
 - 0f855aa64b ("kconfig: add helper to set
   config symbol from environment variable")
 - 2a113281f5 ("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         | 64bit

The 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.

2a113281f5 kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets
The variable K64BIT can now be used to select the
value of CONFIG_64BIT.

This is for example useful for powerpc to generate
allmodconfig for both bit sizes - like this:
make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=y
make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=n

To use this the Kconfig file must use "64BIT" as the
config value to select between 32 and 64 bit.

f82f3f9422 kconfig: oldconfig shall not set symbols if it does not need to
Avoid setting the value if the symbol doesn't need to be changed or can't
be changed. Later choices may change the dependencies and thus the
possible input range.

make oldconfig from a 2.6.22 .config with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU not set
was in some configurations setting CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y without asking,
even when there was no actual requirement for CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.
This was triggered by SUSPEND_SMP that does a select HOTPLUG_CPU.

b321429325 [PATCH] kconfig: new function "bool conf_get_changed(void)"
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.

c955ccafc3 kconfig: fix .config dependencies
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.

3b9fa0931d [PATCH] Kconfig i18n support
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.
