[ Upstream commit c8fb7d7e48d11520ad24808cfce7afb7b9c9f798 ]

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.

<title>kconfig: Clear "written" flag to avoid data loss</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0c5b6c28ed68becb692b43eae5e44d5aa7e160ce</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<title>kconfig: fix missing choice values in auto.conf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8e2442a5f86e1f77b86401fce274a7f622740bc4</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 00c864f8903d ("kconfig: allow all config targets to write
auto.conf if missing"), Kconfig creates include/config/auto.conf in the
defconfig stage when it is missing.

Joonas Kylmälä reported incorrect auto.conf generation under some
circumstances.

To reproduce it, apply the following diff:

|  --- a/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig
|  +++ b/arch/arm/configs/imx_v6_v7_defconfig
|  @@ -345,14 +345,7 @@ CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_MIDI=y
|   CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_HID=y
|   CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_UVC=y
|   CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_PRINTER=y
|  -CONFIG_USB_ZERO=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_AUDIO=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_ETH=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_G_NCM=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_GADGETFS=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_MASS_STORAGE=m
|  -CONFIG_USB_G_SERIAL=m
|  +CONFIG_USB_FUNCTIONFS=y
|   CONFIG_MMC=y
|   CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI=y
|   CONFIG_MMC_SDHCI_PLTFM=y

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 beaaddb62540
("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-&gt;flags &amp;= flags | ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;"
Doing so would re-introduce the problem solved by commit 5d09598d488f
("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.

sym_is_choice(sym) has already been checked by previous if-block:

    if (sym_is_choice(sym) || (sym-&gt;flags &amp; 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.

There is a spelling mistake in "changable", it is corrected to
"changeable" and all call sites are updated accordingly.

<title>kconfig: require the argument of --defconfig</title>

<content type='text'>
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 f3e20ad67b4c ("s390: move arch/s390/defconfig to
  arch/s390/configs/defconfig")

- Commit 986a13769c4b ("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.

<title>kconfig: Terminate menu blocks with a comment in the generated config</title>

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
...

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
of the coreboot project, which also uses kconfig for its build system.

conf_write_dep() has just one caller:

    conf_write_dep("include/config/auto.conf.cmd");

"name" always points to a valid string.
