Revert "lib: Revert use of fallthrough pseudo-keyword in lib/"

2020-11-18T20:15:17+00:00

This reverts commit 6a9dc5fd6170 ("lib: Revert use of fallthrough
pseudo-keyword in lib/")

Now that we can build arch/powerpc/boot/ free of -Wimplicit-fallthrough,
re-enable these fixes for lib/.

lib/bootconfig: Fix to remove tailing spaces after value

2020-09-22T01:50:09+00:00

Fix to remove tailing spaces after value. If there is a space
after value, the bootconfig failed to remove it because it
applies strim() before replacing the delimiter with null.

For example,

foo = var    # comment

was parsed as below.

foo="var    "

but user will expect

foo="var"

This fixes it by applying strim() after removing the delimiter.

lib/bootconfig: Fix a bug of breaking existing tree nodes

2020-09-22T01:45:52+00:00

Fix a bug of breaking existing tree nodes by parsing the second
and subsequent braces. Since the bootconfig parser uses the
node.next field as a flag of current parent node, but this will
break the existing tree if the same key node is specified again
in the bootconfig.

For example, the following bootconfig should be foo.buz and bar.

foo
bar
foo { buz }

However, when parsing the brace "{", it breaks foo->bar link
by marking open-brace node. So the bootconfig unlinks bar
from the bootconfig internal tree.

This introduces a stack outside of the tree and record the
last open-brace on the stack instead of using node.next field.

lib: Revert use of fallthrough pseudo-keyword in lib/

2020-08-24T21:17:44+00:00

The following build error for powerpc64 was reported by Nathan Chancellor:

  "$ scripts/config --file arch/powerpc/configs/powernv_defconfig -e KERNEL_XZ

   $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux- distclean powernv_defconfig zImage

     586 |    fallthrough;
         |    ^~~~~~~~~~~

   This will end up affecting distribution configurations such as Debian
   and OpenSUSE according to my testing. I am not sure what the solution
   is, the PowerPC wrapper does not set -D__KERNEL__ so I am not sure
   that compiler_attributes.h can be safely included."

In order to avoid these sort of problems, it seems that the best
solution is to use /* fall through */ comments instead of the
fallthrough pseudo-keyword macro in lib/, for now.

treewide: Use fallthrough pseudo-keyword

2020-08-23T22:36:59+00:00

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.

lib/bootconfig: Add override operator support

2020-08-03T20:22:28+00:00

Add the value override operator (":=") support to the bootconfig.

This value override operator will be useful for the bootloaders
which will only update the existing bootconfig according to the
bootloader boot options.

Without this override operator, the bootloader needs to parse
the existing bootconfig and update it. However, with this
assignment, it can just append the updated (partial) bootconfig
text at the tail of existing one without parsing it.
(Of course, it must update the size, checksum and magic,
 but that will be done easily)

tools/bootconfig: Show line and column in parse error

2020-03-03T22:38:42+00:00

Show line and column when we got a parse error in bootconfig tool.
Current lib/bootconfig shows the parse error with byte offset, but
that is not human readable.
This makes xbc_init() not showing error message itself but able to
pass the error message and position to caller, so that the caller
can decode it and show the error message with line number and columns.

With this patch, bootconfig tool shows an error with line:column as
below.

  $ cat samples/bad-dotword.bconf
  # do not start keyword with .
  key {
    .word = 1
  }
  $ ./bootconfig -a samples/bad-dotword.bconf initrd
  Parse Error: Invalid keyword at 3:3

bootconfig: Add append value operator support

2020-02-21T14:59:39+00:00

Add append value operator "+=" support to bootconfig syntax.
With this operator, user can add new value to the key as
an entry of array instead of overwriting.
For example,

  foo = bar
  ...
  foo += baz

Then the key "foo" has "bar" and "baz" values as an array.

bootconfig: Prohibit re-defining value on same key

2020-02-21T14:59:19+00:00

Currently, bootconfig adds a new value on the existing key to the tail of an
array. But this looks a bit confusing because an admin can easily rewrite
the original value in the same config file.

This rejects the following value re-definition.

  key = value1
  ...
  key = value2

You should rewrite value1 to value2 in this case.

bootconfig: Reject subkey and value on same parent key

2020-02-20T22:54:09+00:00

Reject if a value node is mixed with subkey node on same
parent key node.

A value node can not co-exist with subkey node under some key
node, e.g.

key = value
key.subkey = another-value

This is not be allowed because bootconfig API is not designed
to handle such case.
