[ Upstream commit 984ed20ece1c6c20789ece040cbff3eb1a388fa9 ]

If you enable "Option -&gt; Show Debug Info" and click a link, the program
terminates with the following error:

    *** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated

The buffer overflow is caused by the following line:

    strcat(data, "$");

The buffer needs one more byte to accommodate the additional character.

<id>urn:sha1:3d6b9305f5271777b86d261e8334cbada7518826</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 4d46b5b623e0adee1153b1d80689211e5094ae44 ]

Since commit f79dc03fe68c ("kconfig: refactor choice value calculation"),
Kconfig for ARCH=powerpc may result in an infinite loop. This occurs
because there are two entries for POWERPC64_CPU in a choice block.

If the same symbol appears twice in a choice block, the -&gt;choice_link
node is added twice to -&gt;choice_members, resulting a corrupted linked
list.

A simple test case is:

    choice
            prompt "choice"

    config A
            bool "A"

    config B
            bool "B 1"

    config B
            bool "B 2"

    endchoice

Running 'make defconfig' results in an infinite loop.

One solution is to replace the current two entries:

    config POWERPC64_CPU
            bool "Generic (POWER5 and PowerPC 970 and above)"
            depends on PPC_BOOK3S_64 &amp;&amp; !CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN
            select PPC_64S_HASH_MMU

    config POWERPC64_CPU
            bool "Generic (POWER8 and above)"
            depends on PPC_BOOK3S_64 &amp;&amp; CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN
            select ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER
            select PPC_64S_HASH_MMU
            select PPC_HAS_LBARX_LHARX

with the following single entry:

    config POWERPC64_CPU
            bool "Generic 64 bit powerpc"
            depends on PPC_BOOK3S_64
            select ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER if CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN
            select PPC_64S_HASH_MMU
            select PPC_HAS_LBARX_LHARX if CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN

In my opinion, the latter looks cleaner, but PowerPC maintainers may
prefer to display different prompts depending on CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN.

For now, this commit fixes the issue in Kconfig, restoring the original
behavior. I will reconsider whether such a use case is worth supporting.

<id>urn:sha1:33330bcf031818e60a816db0cfd3add9eecc3b28</id>
<content type='text'>
When merging files without trailing newlines at the end of the file, two
config fragments end up at the same row if file1.config doens't have a
trailing newline at the end of the file.

file1.config "CONFIG_1=y"
file2.config "CONFIG_2=y"
./scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh -m .config file1.config file2.config

This will generate a .config looking like this.
cat .config
...
CONFIG_1=yCONFIG_2=y"

Making sure so we add a newline at the end of every config file that is
passed into the script.

<title>kconfig: recursive checks drop file/lineno</title>

<content type='text'>
This prevents segfault when getting filename and lineno in recursive
checks.

If the following snippet is found in Kconfig:

[Test code 1]

config FOO
        bool
        depends on BAR
        select BAR

... without BAR defined; then there is a segfault.

  Kconfig:34:error: recursive dependency detected!
  Kconfig:34:	symbol FOO depends on BAR
  make[4]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:85: allnoconfig] Segmentation fault

This is because of the following. BAR is a fake entry created by
sym_lookup() with prop being NULL. In the recursive check, there is a
NULL check for prop to fall back to stack-&gt;sym-&gt;prop if stack-&gt;prop is
NULL. However, in this case, stack-&gt;sym points to the fake BAR entry
created by sym_lookup(), so prop is still NULL. prop was then referenced
without additional NULL checks, causing segfault.

As the previous email thread suggests, the file and lineno for select is
also wrong:

[Test code 2]

config FOO
       bool

config BAR
       bool

config FOO
       bool "FOO"
       depends on BAR
       select BAR

  $ make defconfig
  *** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
  Kconfig:1:error: recursive dependency detected!
  Kconfig:1: symbol FOO depends on BAR
  Kconfig:4: symbol BAR is selected by FOO
  [...]

Kconfig:4 should be Kconfig:10.

This patch deletes the wrong and segfault-prone filename/lineno
inference completely. With this patch, Test code 1 yields:

error: recursive dependency detected!
	symbol FOO depends on BAR
	symbol BAR is selected by FOO

<title>kconfig: remove 'e1' and 'e2' macros from expression deduplication</title>

I do not think the macros 'e1' and 'e2' are readable.

The statement:

    e1 = expr_alloc_symbol(...);

affects the caller's variable, but this is not sufficiently clear from the code.

Remove the macros. No functional change intended.

<title>kconfig: call expr_eliminate_yn() at least once in expr_eliminate_dups()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8bfd6f0923cd7e48aa5d9e5a4e20af818a32c30a</id>
<content type='text'>
Kconfig simplifies expressions, but redundant '&amp;&amp;' and '||' operators
involving constant symbols 'y' and 'n' are sometimes trimmed and
sometimes not.

[Test Code]

    config DEP
            def_bool y

    config A
            bool "A"
            depends on DEP &amp;&amp; y

    config B
            bool "B"
            depends on DEP &amp;&amp; y &amp;&amp; y

[Result]

    $ make helpnewconfig
      [ snip ]
    -----

    There is no help available for this option.
    Symbol: A [=n]
    Type  : bool
    Defined at Kconfig:4
      Prompt: A
      Depends on: DEP [=y] &amp;&amp; y [=y]
      Location:
        -&gt; A (A [=n])

    -----
    -----

    There is no help available for this option.
    Symbol: B [=n]
    Type  : bool
    Defined at Kconfig:8
      Prompt: B
      Depends on: DEP [=y]
      Location:
        -&gt; B (B [=n])

    -----

The dependency for A, 'DEP &amp;&amp; y', remains as-is, while that for B,
'DEP &amp;&amp; y &amp;&amp; y', has been reduced to 'DEP'.

Currently, expr_eliminate_dups() calls expr_eliminate_yn() only when
trans_count != 0, in other words, only when expr_eliminate_dups1() has
trimmed at least one leaf. It fails to trim a single '&amp;&amp; y', etc.

To fix this inconsistent behavior, expr_eliminate_yn() should be called
at least once even if no leaf has been trimmed.
