Commit 246cf9c2 ("kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet direct dependencies") forcibly promoted ->dir_dep.tri to yes from mod. So, the unmet direct dependencies of tristate symbols are not reported. [Test Case] config MODULES def_bool y option modules config A def_bool y select B config B tristate "B" depends on m This causes unmet dependency because 'B' is forced 'y' ignoring 'depends on m'. This should be warned. On the other hand, the following case ('B' is bool) should not be warned, so 'depends on m' for bool symbols should be naturally treated as 'depends on y'. [Test Case2 (not unmet dependency)] config MODULES def_bool y option modules config A def_bool y select B config B bool "B" depends on m Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

Commit 3b9a19e0 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some symbols in randconfig") fixed randconfig where a choice contains a sub-choice. Prior to that commit, the sub-choice values were not set. I am not sure whether this is an intended feature or just something people discovered works, but it is used in the real world; drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/Kconfig is source'd in a choice context, then creates a sub-choice in it. For the test case in this commit, there are 3 possible results. Case 1: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set Case 2: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y CONFIG_C=y # CONFIG_D is not set Case 3: # CONFIG_A is not set CONFIG_B=y # CONFIG_C is not set CONFIG_D=y CONFIG_E=y So, this test iterates several times, and checks if the result is either of the three.

Commit fbe98bb9 ("kconfig: Fix defconfig when one choice menu selects options that another choice menu depends on") fixed defconfig when two choices interact (i.e. calculating the visibility of a choice requires to calculate another choice). The test code in that commit log was based on the real world example, and complicated. So, I shrunk it down to the following: defconfig.choice: ---8<--- CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y ---8<--- ---8<--- config MODULES def_bool y option modules choice prompt "Choice" config CHOICE_VAL0 tristate "Choice 0" config CHOICE_VAL1 tristate "Choice 1" endchoice choice prompt "Another choice" depends on CHOICE_VAL0 config DUMMY bool "dummy" endchoice ---8<--- Prior to commit fbe98bb9, $ scripts/kconfig/conf --defconfig=defconfig.choice Kconfig.choice resulted in: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=m # CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set CONFIG_DUMMY=y where the expected result would be: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y # CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set CONFIG_DUMMY=y Roughly, this weird behavior happened like this: Symbols are calculated a couple of times. First, all symbols are calculated in conf_read(). The first 'choice' is evaluated to 'y' due to the SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag, but sym_calc_choice() clears it unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by the user. conf_set_all_new_symbols() clears all SYMBOL_VALID flags. Then, only choices are calculated. Here, the SYMBOL_DEF_USER for the first choice has been forgotten, so it is evaluated to 'm'. set_all_choice_values() sets SYMBOL_DEF_USER again to choice symbols. When calculating the second choice, due to 'depends on CHOICE_VAL0', it triggers the calculation of CHOICE_VAL0. As a result, SYMBOL_VALID is set for CHOICE_VAL0. Symbols except choices get the final chance of re-calculation in conf_write(). In a normal case, CHOICE_VAL0 would be re-calculated, then the first choice would be indirectly re-calculated with the SYMBOL_DEF_USER which has been recalled by set_all_choice_values(), which would be evaluated to 'y'. But, in this case, CHOICE_VAL0 has already been marked as SYMBOL_VALID, so this re-calculation does not happen. Then, =m from the conf_set_all_new_symbols() phase is written out to the .config file. Add a unit test for this naive case. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Ulf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com>

If tristate choice values depend on symbols set to 'm', they should be hidden when the choice containing them is changed from 'm' to 'y' (i.e. exclusive choice). This issue was fixed by commit fa64e5f6 ("kconfig/symbol.c: handle choice_values that depend on 'm' symbols"). Add a test case to avoid regression. For the input in this unit test, there is a room for argument if "# CONFIG_CHOICE1 is not set" should be written to the .config file. After commit fa64e5f6, this line was written to the .config file. With commit cb67ab2c ("kconfig: do not write choice values when their dependency becomes n"), it is not written now. In this test, "# CONFIG_CHOICE1 is not set" is don't care.

The calculation of 'choice' is a bit complicated part in Kconfig. The behavior of 'y' choice is intuitive. If choice values are tristate, the choice can be 'm' where each value can be enabled independently. Also, if a choice is marked as 'optional', the whole choice can be invisible.

Many parts in Kconfig are so cryptic and need refactoring. However, its complexity prevents us from moving forward. There are several naive corner cases where it is difficult to notice breakage. If those are covered by unit tests, we will be able to touch the code with more confidence. Here is a simple test framework based on pytest. The conftest.py provides a fixture useful to run commands such as 'oldaskconfig' etc. and to compare the resulted .config, stdout, stderr with expectations. How to add test cases? ---------------------- For each test case, you should create a subdirectory under scripts/kconfig/tests/ (so test cases are separated from each other). Every test case directory should contain the following files: - __init__.py: describes test functions - Kconfig: the top level Kconfig file for the test To do a useful job, test cases generally need additional data like input .config and information about expected results. How to run tests? ----------------- You need python3 and pytest. Then, run "make testconfig". O= option is supported. If V=1 is given, detailed logs captured during tests are displayed.

The variable 'PYTHON' allows users to specify a proper executable name in case the default 'python' does not work. However, this does not address the case where both Python 2.x and 3.x scripts are used in one source tree. PEP 394 (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/) provides a convention for Python scripts portability. Here is a quotation: In order to tolerate differences across platforms, all new code that needs to invoke the Python interpreter should not specify 'python', but rather should specify either 'python2' or 'python3'. This distinction should be made in shebangs, when invoking from a shell script, when invoking via the system() call, or when invoking in any other context. One exception to this is scripts that are deliberately written to be source compatible with both Python 2.x and 3.x. Such scripts may continue to use python on their shebang line without affecting their portability. To meet this requirement, this commit adds new variables 'PYTHON2' and 'PYTHON3'. arch/ia64/scripts/unwcheck.py is the only script that has ever used $(PYTHON). Recent commit bd5edbe6 ("ia64: convert unwcheck.py to python3") converted it to be compatible with both Python 2.x and 3.x, so this is the exceptional case where the use of 'python' is allowed. So, I did not touch arch/ia64/Makefile. tools/perf/Makefile.config sets PYTHON and PYTHON2 by itself, so it is not affected by this commit.

As commit cedd55d4 ("kconfig: Remove silentoldconfig from help and docs; fix kconfig/conf's help") mentioned, 'silentoldconfig' is a historical misnomer. That commit removed it from help and docs since it is an internal interface. If so, it should be allowed to rename it to something more intuitive. 'syncconfig' is the one I came up with because it updates the .config if necessary, then synchronize include/generated/autoconf.h and include/config/* with it. You should not manually invoke 'silentoldcofig'. Display warning if used in case existing scripts are doing wrong.

Historically, "make oldconfig" has changed its behavior several times, quieter or louder. (I attached the history below.) Currently, it is not as quiet as it should be. This commit addresses it. Test Case --------- ---------------------------(Kconfig)---------------------------- menu "menu" config FOO bool "foo" menu "sub menu" config BAR bool "bar" endmenu endmenu menu "sibling menu" config BAZ bool "baz" endmenu ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------(.config)---------------------------- CONFIG_BAR=y CONFIG_BAZ=y ---------------------------------------------------------------- With the Kconfig and .config above, "make silentoldconfig" and "make oldconfig" work differently, like follows: $ make silentoldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * menu * foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y # # configuration written to .config # $ make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * menu * foo (FOO) [N/y/?] (NEW) y * * sub menu * bar (BAR) [Y/n/?] y # # configuration written to .config # Both hide "sibling node" since it is irrelevant. The difference is that silentoldconfig hides "sub menu" whereas oldconfig does not. The behavior of silentoldconfig is preferred since the "sub menu" does not contain any new symbol. The root cause is in conf(). There are three input modes that can call conf(); oldaskconfig, oldconfig, and silentoldconfig. Everytime conf() encounters a menu entry, it calls check_conf() to check if it contains new symbols. If no new symbol is found, the menu is just skipped. Currently, this happens only when input_mode == silentoldconfig. The oldaskconfig enters into the check_conf() loop as silentoldconfig, so oldaskconfig works likewise for the second loop or later, but it never happens for oldconfig. So, irrelevant sub-menus are shown for oldconfig. Change the test condition to "input_mode != oldaskconfig". This is false only for the first loop of oldaskconfig; it must ask the user all symbols, so no need to call check_conf(). History of oldconfig -------------------- [0] Originally, "make oldconfig" was as loud as "make config" (It showed the entire .config file) [1] Commit cd9140e1 ("kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty") made oldconfig quieter, but it was still less quieter than silentoldconfig. (oldconfig did not hide sub-menus) [2] Commit 204c96f6 ("kconfig: fix silentoldconfig") changed the input_mode of oldconfig to "ask_silent" from "ask_new". So, oldconfig really became as quiet as silentoldconfig. (oldconfig hided irrelevant sub-menus) [3] Commit 4062f1a4 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") made oldconfig as loud as [0] due to misconversion. [4] Commit 14828349 ("kconfig: fix make oldconfig") addressed the misconversion of [3], but it made oldconfig quieter only to the same level as [1], not [2]. This commit is restoring the behavior of [2]. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Ulf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com>

check_conf() traverses the menu tree, but it is completely no-op for olddefconfig because the following if-else block does nothing. if (input_mode == listnewconfig) { ... } else if (input_mode != olddefconfig) { ... } As the help message says, olddefconfig automatically sets new symbols to their default value. There is no room for manual intervention. So, calling check_conf() for olddefconfig is odd in the first place.

=== Background === - Visible n-valued bool/tristate symbols generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line in the .config file. The idea is to remember the user selection without having to set a Makefile variable. Having n correspond to the variable being undefined in the Makefiles makes for easy CONFIG_* tests. - Invisible n-valued bool/tristate symbols normally do not generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, because user values from .config files have no effect on invisible symbols anyway. Currently, there is one exception to this rule: Any bool/tristate symbol that gets the value n through a 'default' property generates a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line, even if the symbol is invisible. Note that this only applies to explicitly given defaults, and not when the symbol implicitly defaults to n (like bool/tristate symbols without 'default' properties do). This is inconsistent, and seems redundant: - As mentioned, the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' won't affect the symbol once the .config is read back in. - Even if the symbol is invisible at first but becomes visible later, there shouldn't be any harm in recalculating the default value rather than viewing the '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' as a previous user value of n. === Changes === Change sym_calc_value() to only set SYMBOL_WRITE (write to .config) for non-n-valued 'default' properties. Note that SYMBOL_WRITE is always set for visible symbols regardless of whether they have 'default' properties or not, so this change only affects invisible symbols. This reduces the size of the x86 .config on my system by about 1% (due to removed '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' entries). One side effect of (and the main motivation for) this change is making the following two definitions behave exactly the same: config FOO bool config FOO bool default n With this change, neither of these will generate a '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' line (assuming FOO isn't selected/implied). That might make it clearer to people that a bare 'default n' is redundant. This change only affects generated .config files and not autoconf.h: autoconf.h only includes #defines for non-n bool/tristate symbols. === Testing === The following testing was done with the x86 Kconfigs: - .config files generated before and after the change were compared to verify that the only difference is some '# CONFIG_FOO is not set' entries disappearing. A couple of these were inspected manually, and most turned out to be from redundant 'default n/def_bool n' properties. - The generated include/generated/autoconf.h was compared before and after the change and verified to be identical. - As a sanity check, the same modification was done to Kconfiglib. The Kconfiglib test suite was then run to check for any mismatches against the output of the C implementation.

Surprisingly or not, disabling a CONFIG option (which is assumed to be unneeded) may be not so trivial. Especially it is not trivial, when this CONFIG option is selected by a dozen of other configs. Before the moment commit 1ccb2714 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" readable") popped up in v4.16-rc1, it was an absolute pain to break down the "Selected by" reverse dependency expression in order to identify all those configs which select (IOW *do not allow disabling*) a certain feature (assumed to be not needed). This patch tries to make one step further by putting at users' fingertips the revdep top level OR sub-expressions grouped/clustered by the tristate value they evaluate to. This should allow the users to directly concentrate on and tackle the _active_ reverse dependencies. To give some numbers and quantify the complexity of certain reverse dependencies, assuming commit 617aebe6 ("Merge tag 'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux"), ARCH=arm64 and vanilla arm64 defconfig, here is the top 10 CONFIG options with the highest amount of top level "||" sub-expressions/tokens that make up the final "Selected by" reverse dependency expression. | Config | All revdep | Active revdep | |-------------------|------------|---------------| | REGMAP_I2C | 212 | 9 | | CRC32 | 167 | 25 | | FW_LOADER | 128 | 5 | | MFD_CORE | 124 | 9 | | FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT | 114 | 2 | | FB_CFB_COPYAREA | 111 | 2 | | FB_CFB_FILLRECT | 110 | 2 | | SND_PCM | 103 | 2 | | CRYPTO_HASH | 87 | 19 | | WATCHDOG_CORE | 86 | 6 | The story behind the above is that users need to visually review/evaluate 212 expressions which *potentially* select REGMAP_I2C in order to identify the expressions which *actually* select REGMAP_I2C, for a particular ARCH and for a particular defconfig used. To make this experience smoother, change the way reverse dependencies are displayed to the user from [1] to [2].

This commit splits out the special E_OR handling ('-' instead of '||') into a dedicated helper expr_print_revdev(). Restore the original expr_print() prior to commit 1ccb2714 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and "Implied by:" readable"). This makes sense because: - We need to chop those expressions only when printing the reverse dependency, and only when E_OR is encountered - Otherwise, it should be printed as before, so fall back to expr_print() This also improves the behavior; for a single line, it was previously displayed in the same line as "Selected by", like this: Selected by: A [=n] && B [=n] This will be displayed in a new line, consistently: Selected by: - A [=n] && B [=n] Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>

IMO, we should discourage '---help---' for new help texts, even in cases where it would be consistent with other help texts in the file. This will help if we ever want to get rid of '---help---' in the future. Also simplify the code to only check for exactly '---help---'. Since commit c2264564 ("kconfig: warn of unhandled characters in Kconfig commands"), '---help---' is a proper keyword and can only appear in that form.

Currently, only Kconfig symbols are checked for a missing or short help text, and are only checked if they are defined with the 'config' keyword. To make the check more general, extend it to also check help texts for choices and for symbols defined with the 'menuconfig' keyword. This increases the accuracy of the check for symbols that would already have been checked as well, since e.g. a 'menuconfig' symbol after a help text will be recognized as ending the preceding symbol/choice definition. To increase the accuracy of the check further, also recognize 'if', 'endif', 'menu', 'endmenu', 'endchoice', and 'source' as ending a symbol/choice definition.

Pull locking fix from Thomas Gleixner: "rt_mutex_futex_unlock() grew a new irq-off call site, but the function assumes that its always called from irq enabled context. Use (un)lock_irqsafe() to handle the new call site correctly" * 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: rtmutex: Make rt_mutex_futex_unlock() safe for irq-off callsites

On the CP110 components which are present on the Armada 7K/8K SoC we need to explicitly enable the clock for the registers. However it is not needed for the AP8xx component, that's why this clock is optional. With this patch both clock have now a name, but in order to be backward compatible, the name of the first clock is not used. It allows to still use this clock with a device tree using the old binding.

Merge tag 'for-4.16/dm-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer: - Fix an uninitialized variable false warning in dm bufio - Fix DM's passthrough ioctl support to be race free against an underlying device being removed. - Fix corner-case of DM raid resync reporting if/when the raid becomes degraded during resync; otherwise automated raid repair will fail. - A few DM multipath fixes to make non-SCSI optimizations, that were introduced during the 4.16 merge, useful for all non-SCSI devices, rather than narrowly define this non-SCSI mode in terms of "nvme". This allows the removal of "queue_mode nvme" that really didn't need to be introduced. Instead DM core will internalize whether nvme-specific IO submission optimizations are doable and DM multipath will only do SCSI-specific device handler operations if SCSI is in use. * tag 'for-4.16/dm-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: dm table: allow upgrade from bio-based to specialized bio-based variant dm mpath: remove unnecessary NVMe branching in favor of scsi_dh checks dm table: fix "nvme" test dm raid: fix incorrect sync_ratio when degraded dm: use blkdev_get rather than bdgrab when issuing pass-through ioctl dm bufio: avoid false-positive Wmaybe-uninitialized warning

Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford: - Various driver bug fixes in mlx5, mlx4, bnxt_re and qedr, ranging from bugs under load to bad error case handling - There in one largish patch fixing the locking in bnxt_re to avoid a machine hard lock situation - A few core bugs on error paths - A patch to reduce stack usage in the new CQ API - One mlx5 regression introduced in this merge window - There were new syzkaller scripts written for the RDMA subsystem and we are fixing issues found by the bot - One of the commits (aa0de36a “RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ”) is missing part of the commit log message and one of the SOB lines. The original patch was from Leon Romanovsky, and a cut-n-paste separator in the commit message confused patchworks which then put the end of message separator in the wrong place in the downloaded patch, and I didn’t notice in time. The patch made it into the official branch, and the only way to fix it in-place was to rebase. Given the pain that a rebase causes, and the fact that the patch has relevant tags for stable and syzkaller, a revert of the munged patch and a reapplication of the original patch with the log message intact was done. * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma: (25 commits) RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ Revert "RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ" RDMA/ucma: Check that user doesn't overflow QP state RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ RDMA/ucma: Limit possible option size IB/core: Fix possible crash to access NULL netdev RDMA/bnxt_re: Avoid Hard lockup during error CQE processing RDMA/core: Reduce poll batch for direct cq polling IB/mlx5: Fix an error code in __mlx5_ib_modify_qp() IB/mlx5: When not in dual port RoCE mode, use provided port as native IB/mlx4: Include GID type when deleting GIDs from HW table under RoCE IB/mlx4: Fix corruption of RoCEv2 IPv4 GIDs RDMA/qedr: Fix iWARP write and send with immediate RDMA/qedr: Fix kernel panic when running fio over NFSoRDMA RDMA/qedr: Fix iWARP connect with port mapper RDMA/qedr: Fix ipv6 destination address resolution IB/core : Add null pointer check in addr_resolve RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix the ib_reg failure cleanup RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix incorrect DB offset calculation RDMA/bnxt_re: Unconditionly fence non wire memory operations ...
