Merge branch 'kbuild/rc-fixes' into kbuild/kconfig

2013-02-25T20:51:57+00:00

There is one kconfig fix in the rc-fixes branch that I forgot to submit
for 3.8, so let's add it to the kconfig branch for 3.9-rc1.

menuconfig: Add Save/Load buttons

2013-01-15T23:00:34+00:00

If menuconfig have Save/Load button like alternative
.config editors, xconfig, nconfig, etc.We will have
a obvious benefit when use menuconfig just like
when we use others, we can Save/Load our .config quickly
and conveniently.

This patch add the Save/Load button for menuconfig.

[remove trailing space while at it for below line:
"*)  Formerly when I used Page Down and Page Up, the cursor would be set"
]

Changes:
V1-V2:
1:use PATH_MAX instead of hard code suggested by Yann E. MORIN
2:drop the spurious empty-line removal suggested by Yann E. MORIN
V2-V3:
1:ajust buttons position well centered reported by Yann E. MORIN

menuconfig: fix extended colors ncurses support

2012-11-20T09:52:36+00:00

The ncurses library allows for extended colors. The support for extended
colors support depends on wide-character support. ncurses headers
enable extended colors (NCURSES_EXT_COLORS) only when wide-character
support is enabled (NCURSES_WIDECHAR).

The "make menuconfig" uses wide-character ncursesw library, which can be
compiled with wide-character support, but does not define NCURSES_WIDECHAR
and it's using headers without wide-character (and extended colors) support.

This fixes problems with colors on systems with enabled extended colors
(like PLD Linux). Without this patch "make menuconfig" is hard to use.

Merge branch 'kconfig' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

2012-10-12T01:28:52+00:00

Pull kconfig changes from Michal Marek:
 "kconfig in v3.7 is going to
   - initialize ncurses only once in menuconfig
   - be able to jump to a search result in menuconfig
   - change the misnomer oldnoconfig to a more meaningful name
     olddefconfig, keeping the old name as alias"

* 'kconfig' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  kconfig: replace 'oldnoconfig' with 'olddefconfig', and keep the old name as an alias
  menuconfig: Assign jump keys per-page instead of globally
  menuconfig: Do not open code textbox scroll up/down
  menuconfig: Add jump keys to search results
  menuconfig: Extend dialog_textbox so that it can return to a scrolled position
  menuconfig: Extend dialog_textbox so that it can exit on arbitrary keypresses
  menuconfig: Remove superfluous conditionnal
  kconfig: document oldnoconfig to what it really does in conf.c
  kconfig/mconf.c: revision of curses initialization.

kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax

2012-10-03T07:03:24+00:00

The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
"gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
such as icecream do expect.

This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
miscompilations.

Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
incorrect -x parameter syntax.

menuconfig: Assign jump keys per-page instead of globally

2012-09-27T16:09:24+00:00

At the moment, keys 1-9 are assigned to the first 9 search results. This patch
makes them assigned to the first 9 results per-page instead. We are much less
likely to run out of keys that way.

menuconfig: Do not open code textbox scroll up/down

2012-09-27T16:09:24+00:00

We don't need to explicitely use ncurses' scroll(). ncurses performs
vertical-motion optimization at wrefresh() time.

Using strace I confirmed that with the following patch curses still sends only
the new line of text to the terminal when scrolling up/down one line at a
time.

menuconfig: Extend dialog_textbox so that it can return to a scrolled position

2012-09-27T16:08:14+00:00

We can now display other UI elements (menus) "on top" of a textbox and then
seemingly come back to it in the same state it was left.
