In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.

Running randconfig on arm64 using KCONFIG_SEED=0x40C5E904 (e.g. on v5.5)
produces the .config with CONFIG_EFI=y and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y,
which does not meet the !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN dependency.
This is because the user choice for CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN vs
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set by randomize_choice_values() after the
value of CONFIG_EFI is calculated.
When this happens, the has_changed flag should be set.
Currently, it takes the result from the last iteration. It should
accumulate all the results of the loop.

When we generate the help text of a symbol (e.g. when a user presses '?'
in menuconfig), we do two things:
1. We iterate through every prompt that belongs to that symbol,
printing its text and its location in the menu tree.
2. We print symbol-wide information that's not linked to a particular
prompt, such as what it selects/is selected by and what it
implies/is implied by.
Each prompt we print for 1 starts with a line that's not indented
indicating where the prompt is defined, then continues with indented
lines that describe properties of that particular definition.
Once we get to 2, however, we print all the global data indented as
well! Visually, this makes it look like the symbol-wide data is
associated with the last prompt we happened to print rather than
the symbol as a whole.
Fix this by removing the indentation for symbol-wide information.

Kconfig makes a distinction between dependencies (defined by "depends
on" expressions and enclosing "if" blocks) and visibility (which
includes all dependencies, but also includes inline "if" expressions of
individual properties as well as, for prompts, "visible if" expressions
of enclosing menus).
Before commit bcdedcc1af ("menuconfig: print more info for symbol
without prompts"), the "Depends on" lines of a symbol's help text
indicated the visibility of the prompt property they appeared under.
After bcdedcc1af, there was always only a single "Depends on" line,
which indicated the visibility of the first P_SYMBOL property of the
symbol. Since P_SYMBOLs never have inline if expressions, this was in
effect the same as the dependencies of the menu item that the P_SYMBOL
was attached to.
Neither of these situations accurately conveyed the dependencies of a
symbol--the first because it was actually the visibility, and the second
because it only showed the dependencies from a single definition.
With this series, we are back to printing separate dependencies for each
definition, but we print the actual dependencies (rather than the
visibility) in the "Depends on" line. However, it can still be useful to
know the visibility of a prompt, so this patch adds a "Visible if" line
that shows the visibility only if the visibility is different from the
dependencies (which it isn't for most prompts in Linux).

In Kconfig, each symbol (representing a config option) can be defined in
multiple places. Each definition may or may not have a prompt, which
allows the option to be set via an interface like menuconfig. Each
definition has a set of dependencies, which determine whether its prompt
is visible and whether other pieces of the definition, like a default
value, take effect.
Historically, a symbol's help text (i.e. what's shown when a user
presses '?' in menuconfig) contained some symbol-wide information not
tied to any particular definition (e.g. what other symbols it selects)
as well as the location (file name and line number) and dependencies of
each prompt. Notably, the help text did not show the location or
dependencies of definitions without prompts.
Because this made it hard to reason about symbols that had no prompts,
commit bcdedcc1af ("menuconfig: print more info for symbol without
prompts") changed the help text so that, instead of containing the
location and dependencies of each prompt, it contained the location and
dependencies of the symbol's first definition, regardless of whether or
not that definition had a prompt.
For symbols with only one definition, that change makes sense. However,
it breaks down for symbols with multiple definitions: each definition
has its own set of dependencies (the `dep` field of `struct menu`), and
those dependencies are ORed together to get the symbol's dependency list
(the `dir_dep` field of `struct symbol`). By printing only the
dependencies of the first definition, the help text misleads users into
believing that an option is more narrowly-applicable than it actually
is.
For an extreme example of this, we can look at the SYS_TEXT_BASE symbol
in the Das U-Boot project (version 2019.10), which also uses Kconfig. (I
unfortunately could not find an illustrative example in Linux.) This
config option specifies the load address of the built binary and, as
such, is applicable to basically every configuration possible. And yet,
without this patch, its help text is as follows:
Symbol: SYS_TEXT_BASE [=]
Type : hex
Prompt: U-Boot base address
Location:
-> ARM architecture
Prompt: Text Base
Location:
-> Boot images
Defined at arch/arm/mach-aspeed/Kconfig:9
Depends on: ARM [=n] && ARCH_ASPEED [=n]
The help text indicates that the option is applicable only for a
specific unselected architecture (aspeed), because that architecture's
promptless definition (which just sets a default value), happens to be
the first one seen. No definition or dependency information is printed
for either of the two prompts listed.
Because source locations and dependencies are fundamentally properties
of definitions and not of symbols, we should treat them as such. This
patch brings back the pre-bcdedcc1afd6 behavior for definitions with
prompts but also separately prints the location and dependencies of
those without prompts, solving the original problem in a different way.
With this change, our SYS_TEXT_BASE example becomes
Symbol: SYS_TEXT_BASE [=]
Type : hex
Defined at arch/arm/mach-stm32mp/Kconfig:83
Prompt: U-Boot base address
Depends on: ARM [=n] && ARCH_STM32MP [=n]
Location:
-> ARM architecture
Defined at Kconfig:532
Prompt: Text Base
Depends on: !NIOS2 [=n] && !XTENSA [=n] && !EFI_APP [=n]
Location:

Defined at arch/arm/mach-aspeed/Kconfig:9
Depends on: ARM [=n] && ARCH_ASPEED [=n]
Defined at arch/arm/mach-socfpga/Kconfig:25

<snip>
Defined at board/sifive/fu540/Kconfig:15
Depends on: RISCV [=n] && TARGET_SIFIVE_FU540 [=n]
which is a much more accurate representation.
Note that there is one notable difference between what gets printed for
prompts after this change and what got printed before bcdedcc1afd6: the
"Depends on" line now accurately represents the prompt's dependencies
instead of conflating those with the prompt's visibility (which can
include extra conditions). See the patch later in this series titled
"kconfig: distinguish between dependencies and visibility in help text"
for more details and better handling of that nuance.

Since kernel configs provided by syzbot are close to "make allyesconfig",
it takes long time to rebuild. This is especially waste of time when we
need to rebuild for many times (e.g. doing manual printk() inspection,
bisect operations).
We can save time if we can exclude modules which are irrelevant to each
problem. But "make localmodconfig" cannot exclude modules which are built
into vmlinux because /sbin/lsmod output is used as the source of modules.
Therefore, this patch adds "make yes2modconfig" which converts from =y
to =m if possible. After confirming that the interested problem is still
reproducible, we can try "make localmodconfig" (and/or manually tune
based on "Modules linked in:" line) in order to exclude modules which are
irrelevant to the interested problem. While we are at it, this patch also
adds "make mod2yesconfig" which converts from =m to =y in case someone
wants to convert from =m to =y after "make localmodconfig".

Commit 8636a1f967 ("treewide: surround Kconfig file paths with double
quotes") killed use-cases to reduce an unquoted string into the 'prompt'

Kconfig still allows to use an unquoted string in the context of menu,
source, or prompt.
So, you can omit quoting if the prompt is a single word:
bool foo
..., but I do not think this is so useful.
Let's require quoting:
bool "foo"
All the Kconfig files in the kernel are written in this way.
Remove the T_WORD from the right-hand side of the symbol 'prompt'.

Commit bc081dd6e9 ("kbuild: generate modules.builtin") added
infrastructure to generate modules.builtin, the list of all
builtin modules.
Basically, it works like this:
- Kconfig generates include/config/tristate.conf, the list of
tristate CONFIG options with a value in a capital letter.
- scripts/Makefile.modbuiltin makes Kbuild descend into
directories to collect the information of builtin modules.
I am not a big fan of it because Kbuild ends up with traversing
the source tree twice.
I am not sure how perfectly it should work, but this approach cannot
avoid false positives; even if the relevant CONFIG option is tristate,
some Makefiles forces obj-m to obj-y.
Some examples are:
arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile:
obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM:m=y) += nvram.o
net/ipv6/Makefile:
obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += inet6_hashtables.o
net/netlabel/Makefile:
obj-$(subst m,y,$(CONFIG_IPV6)) += netlabel_calipso.o
Nobody has complained about (or noticed) it, so it is probably fine to
have false positives in modules.builtin.
This commit simplifies the implementation. Let's exploit the fact
that every module has MODULE_LICENSE(). (modpost shows a warning if
MODULE_LICENSE is missing. If so, 0-day bot would already have blocked
such a module.)
I added MODULE_FILE to <linux/module.h>. When the code is being compiled
as builtin, it will be filled with the file path of the module, and
collected into modules.builtin.info. Then, scripts/link-vmlinux.sh
extracts the list of builtin modules out of it.
This new approach fixes the false-positives above, but adds another
type of false-positives; non-modular code may have MODULE_LICENSE()
by mistake. This is not a big deal, it is just the code is always
orphan. We can clean it up if we like. You can see cleanup examples by:
$ git log --grep='make.* explicitly non-modular'
To sum up, this commits deletes lots of code, but still produces almost
equivalent results. Please note it does not increase the vmlinux size at
all. As you can see in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h, the .modinfo
section is discarded in the link stage.

Kbuild provides per-file compiler flag addition/removal:
CFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
CFLAGS_REMOVE_<basetarget>.o
AFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
AFLAGS_REMOVE_<basetarget>.o
CPPFLAGS_<basetarget>.lds
HOSTCFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
HOSTCXXFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
The <basetarget> is the filename of the target with its directory and
suffix stripped.
This syntax comes into a trouble when two files with the same basename
appear in one Makefile, for example:
obj-y += foo.o
obj-y += dir/foo.o
CFLAGS_foo.o := <some-flags>
Here, the <some-flags> applies to both foo.o and dir/foo.o
The real world problem is:
scripts/kconfig/util.c
scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/util.c
Both files are compiled into scripts/kconfig/mconf, but only the
latter should be given with the ncurses flags.
It is more sensible to use the relative path to the Makefile, like this:
obj-y += foo.o
CFLAGS_foo.o := <some-flags>
obj-y += dir/foo.o
CFLAGS_dir/foo.o := <other-flags>
At first, I attempted to replace $(basetarget) with $*. The $* variable
is replaced with the stem ('%') part in a pattern rule. This works with
most of cases, but does not for explicit rules.
For example, arch/ia64/lib/Makefile reuses rule_as_o_S in its own
explicit rules, so $* will be empty, resulting in ignoring the per-file
AFLAGS.
I introduced a new variable, target-stem, which can be used also from
explicit rules.

Prior to this commit, starting nconfig, xconfig or gconfig, and saving
the .config file more than once caused data loss, where a .config file
that contained only comments would be written to disk starting from the
second save operation.
This bug manifests itself because the SYMBOL_WRITTEN flag is never
cleared after the first call to conf_write, and subsequent calls to
conf_write then skip all of the configuration symbols due to the
SYMBOL_WRITTEN flag being set.
This commit resolves this issue by clearing the SYMBOL_WRITTEN flag
from all symbols before conf_write returns.

Since commit 00c864f890 ("kconfig: allow all config targets to write

defconfig stage when it is missing.
Joonas Kylmälä reported incorrect auto.conf generation under some
circumstances.
To reproduce it, apply the following diff:

And then, run:
$ make ARCH=arm mrproper imx_v6_v7_defconfig
You will see CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y is correctly contained in the
.config, but not in the auto.conf.
Please note drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig is included from a choice
block in drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig. So USB_FUNCTIONFS is a choice value.
This is probably a similar situation described in commit beaaddb625
("kconfig: tests: test defconfig when two choices interact").
When sym_calc_choice() is called, the choice symbol forgets the
SYMBOL_DEF_USER unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by
the user.
The choice symbol is given just one chance to recall it because
set_all_choice_values() is called if SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES
is set.
When sym_calc_choice() is called again, the choice symbol forgets it
forever, since SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES is a one-time aid.
Hence, we cannot call sym_clear_all_valid() again and again.
It is crazy to repeat set and unset of internal flags. However, we
cannot simply get rid of "sym->flags &= flags | ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;"
Doing so would re-introduce the problem solved by commit 5d09598d48
("kconfig: fix new choices being skipped upon config update").
To work around the issue, conf_write_autoconf() stopped calling
sym_clear_all_valid().
conf_write() must be changed accordingly. Currently, it clears
SYMBOL_WRITE after the symbol is written into the .config file. This
is needed to prevent it from writing the same symbol multiple times in
case the symbol is declared in two or more locations. I added the new
flag SYMBOL_WRITTEN, to track the symbols that have been written.
Anyway, this is a cheesy workaround in order to suppress the issue
as far as defconfig is concerned.
Handling of choices is totally broken. sym_clear_all_valid() is called
every time a user touches a symbol from the GUI interface. To reproduce
it, just add a new symbol drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig, then touch
around unrelated symbols from menuconfig. USB_FUNCTIONFS will disappear
from the .config file.
I added the Fixes tag since it is more fatal than before. But, this
has been broken since long long time before, and still it is.
We should take a closer look to fix this correctly somehow.

* tag 'kconfig-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:
kconfig: remove meaningless if-conditional in conf_read()
kconfig: Fix spelling of sym_is_changable
unicore32: rename unicore32_defconfig to defconfig
kconfig: make arch/*/configs/defconfig the default of KBUILD_DEFCONFIG
kconfig: add static qualifier to expand_string()
kconfig: require the argument of --defconfig
kconfig: remove always false ifeq ($(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG,) conditional
sym_is_choice(sym) has already been checked by previous if-block:
if (sym_is_choice(sym) || (sym->flags & SYMBOL_NO_WRITE))
continue;
Hence, the following code is redundant, and the comment is misleading:
if (!sym_is_choice(sym))
continue;
/* fall through */
It always takes 'continue', never falls though.
Clean up the dead code.

The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents
there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.
Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Until recently, if KBUILD_DEFCONFIG was not set by the arch Makefile,
the default path arch/*/defconfig was used.
The last users of the default are gone by the following commits:
- Commit f3e20ad67b ("s390: move arch/s390/defconfig to
arch/s390/configs/defconfig")
- Commit 986a13769c ("alpha: move arch/alpha/defconfig to
arch/alpha/configs/defconfig")
Let's set arch/*/configs/defconfig as a new default. This saves
KBUILD_DEFCONFIG for some architectures.

Currently, the argument for --defconfig is optional. If the argument
is not passed, the hard-coded default arch/$(ARCH)/defconfig is used.
It no longer happens in Linux since the last users of the default are
gone by the following commits:
- Commit f3e20ad67b ("s390: move arch/s390/defconfig to
arch/s390/configs/defconfig")
- Commit 986a13769c ("alpha: move arch/alpha/defconfig to
arch/alpha/configs/defconfig")
I want to kill the Linux-specific directory path embedded in the
Kconfig binary.
The --savedefconfig (reverse operation of --defconfig) requires an
argument, so it should not hurt to do likewise for --defconfig.

With the following two commits applied, all the arch Makefiles
define KBUILD_DEFCONFIG.
- Commit f3e20ad67b ("s390: move arch/s390/defconfig to
arch/s390/configs/defconfig")
- Commit 986a13769c ("alpha: move arch/alpha/defconfig to
arch/alpha/configs/defconfig")
The first conditional in the defconfig rule is always false.

Adding SPDX license identifier is pretty safe; however, here is one
exception.
Since commit ec8f24b7fa ("treewide: Add SPDX license identifier -
Makefile/Kconfig"), "make testconfig" would not pass.
When Kconfig detects a circular file inclusion, it displays error
messages with a file name and a line number prefixed to each line.
The unit test checks if Kconfig emits the error messages correctly
(this also checks the line number correctness).
Now that the test input has the SPDX license identifier at the very top,
the line numbers in the expected stderr should be incremented by 1.

Currently menu blocks start with a pretty header but end with nothing in
the generated config. So next config options stick together with the
options from the menu block.
Let's terminate menu blocks in the generated config with a comment and
a newline if needed. Example:
...
CONFIG_BPF_STREAM_PARSER=y
CONFIG_NET_FLOW_LIMIT=y
#
# Network testing
#
CONFIG_NET_PKTGEN=y
CONFIG_NET_DROP_MONITOR=y
# end of Network testing
# end of Networking options
CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y

Currently, the Kbuild core manipulates header search paths in a crazy
way [1].
To fix this mess, I want all Makefiles to add explicit $(srctree)/ to
the search paths in the srctree. Some Makefiles are already written in
that way, but not all. The goal of this work is to make the notation
consistent, and finally get rid of the gross hacks.
Having whitespaces after -I does not matter since commit 48f6e3cf5b
("kbuild: do not drop -I without parameter").

Valid pathnames will never exceed PATH_MAX, but these file names
are unsanitized and can cause buffer overflow if set incorrectly.
Use snprintf to avoid this. This was flagged during a Coverity scan

With menuconfig / nconfig, users can input any file path from the
"Save" menu, but it fails if the parent directory does not exist.
Why not create the parent directory automatically. I think this is
a user-friendly behavior.
I changed the error messages in menuconfig / nconfig.
"Nonexistent directory" is no longer the most likely reason of the
failure. Perhaps, the user specified the existing directory, or
attempted to write to the location without write permission.
