2010-02-03kconfig: Simplify LSMOD= handlingMichal Marek

2010-02-02kconfig: Add LSMOD=file to override the lsmod for localmodconfigSteven Rostedt
Doing the following: make LSMOD=file localmodconfig Will make the streamline-config code use the given file instead of lsmod. If the file is an executable, it will execute it, otherwise it will read it as text. make LSMOD=/my/local/path/lsmod localmodconfig The above will execute the lsmod in /my/local/path instead of the lsmods that may be located elsewhere. make LSMOD=embedded_board_lsmod localmodconfig The above will read the "embedded_board_lsmod" as a text file. This is useful if you are doing a cross compile and need to run the config against modules that exist on an embedded device. Note, if the LSMOD= file does is not a path, it will add the path to the object directory. That is, the above example will look for "embedded_board_lsmod" in the directory that the binary will be built in (the O=dir directory).

2010-02-02kconfig: Look in both /bin and /sbin for lsmod in streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Distributions now have lsmod in /bin instead of /sbin. But to handle both cases, we look for it in /sbin /bin /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. If lsmod is not found in any of those paths, it defaults to use just lsmod and hopes that it lies in the path of the user.

2010-01-06kconfig: Check for if conditions in Kconfig for localmodconfigSteven Rostedt
The streamline_config.pl misses the if conditions for checking dependencies. For Kconfigs with the following construct: if MEDIA_SUPPORT config VIDEO_DEV [...] If VIDEO_DEV was enabled, the script will miss the fact that MEDIA_SUPPORT is also needed. This patch changes streamline_config.pl to include if conditions into the dependencies of configs.

2010-01-06kconfig: Create include/generated for localmodconfigSteven Rostedt
If someone downloads a brand new kernel and runs localmodconfig or localyesconfig, the ending result will report: *** Error during update of the kernel configuration. This is because localmodconfig and localyesconfig must create the include/generated directory to place the autoconf.h file. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-12-12kbuild: generate modules.builtinMichal Marek
To make it easier for module-init-tools and scripts like mkinitrd to distinguish builtin and missing modules, install a modules.builtin file listing all builtin modules. This is done by generating an additional config file (tristate.conf) with tristate options set to uppercase 'Y' or 'M'. If we source that config file, the builtin modules appear in obj-Y.

When typeahead find is enabled, using 'y', 'n' and 'm' to change the status of the configuration items will also start up the search system, making you jump around the configuration. Disabling the enable_search property does not mean that search is not possible, it only disables the typeahead; to execute a search in the treeview, you can just call it up explicitly (i.e.: on most systems that will be Ctrl-f).

2009-08-21kconfig: add missing dependency of conf to localyesconfigSteven Rostedt
There's a dependency missing. $ make localyesconfig HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep HOSTCC scripts/basic/docproc HOSTCC scripts/basic/hash using config: '/boot/config-2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.x86_64' /bin/sh: line 8: scripts/kconfig/conf: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [localyesconfig] Error 127 make: *** [localyesconfig] Error 2 Thus the script failed to run. But the sed command that converts the '=m' to '=y' still ran. This gives us a distro config with all modules converted to built in! The missing dependency was for conf for localyesconfig.

2009-08-18kconfig: test if a .config already existsSteven Rostedt
If one were to run localmodconfig or localyesconfig without having a .config already in the file, then the end of the process would give a warning when it tries to move the old .config to .config.old. This patch adds a test to check if .config exists and avoid the moves if it does not. [ Impact: remove warning after make localmodconfig ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: make local .config default for streamline_configSteven Rostedt

2009-08-18kconfig: search for a config to base the local(mod|yes)config onSteven Rostedt
Instead of using the .config in the local directory. This patch changes streamline_config.pl to search various locations for a config. Here's the list and order of search: /proc/config.gz /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` vmlinux # local to the directory /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/kernel/configs.ko kernel/configs.ko kernel/configs.o .config Once it finds a file that contains a config (it checks if the binary objects have configs first) it then uses it to create the .config with minimum modules needed.

2009-08-18kconfig: enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG from streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Ingo Molnar suggested that the streamline_config.pl should enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG to keep the current config in the kernel. Then we can use scripts/extract-ikconfig to find the current modules. This patch changes streamline_config.pl to check if CONFIG_IKCONFIG is not set, and if it is not, it enables it to be a module.

2009-08-18kconfig: do not warn about modules built inSteven Rostedt
The streamline_config.pl finds all the configs that are needed to compile the currently loaded modules. After it creates the .config file, it tests to make sure all the configs that are needed were set. It only looks at the configs that are modules, it does not look at the builtin configs. This causes unnecessary warnings about modules not being covered. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: streamline_config.pl do not stop with no dependsSteven Rostedt
If a config does not have a prompt, it must be selected. streamline_config.pl keeps track of all configs that select other configs. If a config that does not have a prompt needs to be set to enable a current module, it will include all configs that select it. Note, streamline_config.pl does not enable modules that are not already enabled. It only keeps enabled those that were enabled and might be needed to compile the current modules. The code to find the selects of a config is after the code that adds the depends. But if a config needed selects but had no dependencies, it would not be set. Because the code would stop before getting to the select. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: add make localyesconfig optionSteven Rostedt
This adds the option localyesconfig to make. This is similar to localmodconfig, but after it removes unnecessary modules it runs sed -i s/=m/=y/ on the .config file. It then runs "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that were created by the conversion of modules to core. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: make localmodconfig to run streamline_config.plSteven Rostedt
Running the streamline_config.pl script manually can still be confusing for some users. This patch adds the localmodconfig option. This will automatically run streamline_config.pl on the current .config and then run "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that might have been created. $ make localmodconfig This will remove any module configurations in .config that are not needed to compile the modules that are loaded. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-08-18kconfig: add streamline_config.pl to scriptsSteven Rostedt
streamline_config.pl is a very powerful tool. For those that install a kernel to a new box using the config file from the distribution know that it can take forever to compile the kernel. Making a custom config file that will still boot your box, but bring down the compile time of the kernel can be quit painful, and to ask someone that reported a bug to do this can be a large burdon since that person may not even know how to build a kernel. This script will perform "lsmod" to find all the modules loaded on the current running system. It will read all the Makefiles to map which CONFIG enables a module. It will read the Kconfig files to find the dependencies and selects that may be needed to support a CONFIG. Finally, it reads the .config file and removes any module "=m" that is not needed to enable the currently loaded modules. The output goes to standard out. Here's a way to run the script. From the Linux directory that holds a distribution .config. $ scripts/kconfig/streamline_config.pl arch/x86/Kconfig > config-sl $ mv .config config-save $ mv config-sl .config $ make oldconfig Now you have a .config that will still build all your modules, but also take much less time to build the kernel.

2009-03-15kconfig: improve seed in randconfigIngo Molnar
'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.)
