Whitespace consistency nit

Convert some comments to module docstrings in utilities

2019-03-22T16:29:12Z

This makes running pydoc(3) on the utilities helpful. Reuse the module docstring for the --help text for utilities that use argparse. Also fix some copy-paste errors in the all*config.py descriptions and clean up the language a bit. Piggyback removal of an optimization in allmodconfig.py that's pretty irrelevant now.

Use a consistent style in small utilities

Also remove some no longer used imports.

genconfig: Do not generate *.old files for --config-out

2018-12-08T13:44:27Z

Configuration files generated by --config-out would usually be an internal detail of the build system, so it's probably not helpful to generate *.old files for them. Pass save_old=False to write_config() to skip it.

Make {load,write}_config(filename=None) implement the standard behavior

2018-12-08T02:28:52Z

Make the previously obligatory 'filename' argument to load_config() and write_config() default to None, and have that implement the behavior you'd usually want: read/write either KCONFIG_CONFIG or ".config" if unset, and read the 'option defconfig_list' configuration file if KCONFIG_CONFIG/".config" doesn't exist. For load_config(), filename=None also allows the configuration file to be missing without raising an error. load_config() returns True if a local configuration file was loaded, which is useful to check in the menuconfig (if no local configuration file exists, we always want to prompt for saving the configuration when exiting). Also add a 'verbose' argument (default True) to load_config() and read_config() that makes them print which files were read/written in filename=None mode. Also generalize olddefconfig.py and oldconfig.py to not require there to already be a local configuration file. This was a bit silly for olddefconfig.py in particular. Remove the examples/defconfig.py script. It's a duplicate of olddefconfig.py.

Didn't mention --config-out.

genconfig: Allow writing a full .config without incremental build info

2018-10-03T06:05:59Z

For projects that don't use incremental build information, it's a bit wasteful to generate it just to get an updated .config file to include in Makefiles. Add a '--config-out ' option that just writes the updated .config file, for those cases. Also remove a redundant default=None argument for --sync-deps. None is the default value.

genconfig: Remove unused sys import
