2018-10-01Make 10.9.0 releasev10.9.0Ulf Magnusson
Adds commit 3b692df ("olddefconfig: Add script"), which bundles a new script that mimics 'make olddefconfig'. This could also be accomplished by entering the menuconfig interface and saving, but its more awkward. Some minor internal documentation clarifications and cleanups are included as well: - Commit 53db3ee ("Clarify node_iter() documentation re. iteration order") - Commit c1dcaa3 ("Refactor parsing to get rid of _saved_line") - Commit 6aab113 ("Don't set filename and linenr on 'if' menu nodes")
2018-10-01olddefconfig: Add scriptUlf Magnusson
Works like 'make olddefconfig', updating a configuration by filling in default values for all new symbols. This could also be accomplished by entering the 'menuconfig' interface and saving the configuration, but it's more awkward and less obvious. Piggyback two oldconfig changes: - Mention KCONFIG_CONFIG - Check if the .config file exists before parsing the Kconfig files, instead of after
2018-10-01Don't set filename and linenr on 'if' menu nodesUlf Magnusson
There's no way to query them later, as 'if's get flattened and removed, and they're not needed during parsing either.
2018-09-29Clarify node_iter() documentation re. iteration orderUlf Magnusson
The old version might not have made it obvious that a node is visited before its children.
2018-09-29Refactor parsing to get rid of _saved_lineUlf Magnusson
Handle the line-after-help-text case specially, which allows _has_tokens (renamed to _reuse_tokens) to be used as the unget mechanism for help texts as well, leaving _saved_line unused. Move the _reuse_tokens check into _next_line(). This makes _parse_block() as straightforward as _parse_properties(), and simplifies _parse_properties() a tiny bit too by getting rid of the '_tokens_i = -1' assignment.
2018-09-28Fix comment formatting in help_grep.pyUlf Magnusson
Consistently indent with tabs, like in the actual output.
2018-09-27Use a consistent import style in the examplesUlf Magnusson
Do the PEP 8 ordering thingy with standard library imports first.
2018-09-27Simplify the defconfig and eval_expr examples a bitUlf Magnusson
Style nits.
2018-09-27Remove stray tab characterUlf Magnusson
2018-09-27Make 10.8.1 releasev10.8.1Ulf Magnusson
Adds commit c91e17c ("Give clearer errors for bad endchoice/endif/endmenu nesting"). Previously, an endchoice/endif/endmenu without a corresponding choice/if/menu generated a cryptic "unrecognized construct" error.
2018-09-27Unmatched endchoice/endif/endmenu formatting nitUlf Magnusson
Easier to read.
2018-09-27Give clearer errors for bad endchoice/endif/endmenu nestingUlf Magnusson
An endchoice/endif/endmenu with no corresponding choice/if/menu generated a cryptic 'unrecognized construct' parse error. Improve the error message so that the problem is pointed out explicitly: kconfiglib.KconfigError: Kconfig:37: couldn't parse 'endmenu': no corresponding 'menu' Reported in https://github.com/ulfalizer/Kconfiglib/issues/56.
2018-09-26Point out the Linux kernel Kconfigs being hugeUlf Magnusson
2018-09-23Fix formatting nit in user-defined Python function testsUlf Magnusson
2018-09-23Make 10.8.0 releasev10.8.0Ulf Magnusson
Adds support for user-defined preprocessor functions in Python, which can be used to get information from existing Python tools into Kconfig, e.g. to have Kconfig symbols depend on hardware information stored in some other format. See commit b6827ca ("Add support for user-defined Python preprocessor functions").
2018-09-23Add support for user-defined Python preprocessor functionsUlf Magnusson
Allow preprocessor functions to be defined in Python by putting a module called 'kconfigfunctions' into sys.path. Internally, this simply adds the functions to the predefined functions in Kconfig._functions. User-defined Python functions make it simple to integrate information from existing Python tools into Kconfig, e.g. to have Kconfig symbols depend on hardware information stored in some other format. This might be used to get device tree information into Kconfig in Zephyr. Piggyback module docstring documentation for some extensions that were previously only mentioned in the README.
2018-09-19menuconfig: Fix some nits reported by flake8Ulf Magnusson
- Remove some unused imports - Replace a lambda with a plain function - Shorten some long lines - Remove some redundant backslashes within brackets
2018-09-19Remove unused variable reported by flake8Ulf Magnusson
Also remove some redundant backslashes within brackets.
2018-09-15Update some examples to use node_iter()Ulf Magnusson
Simplifies the code. Should promote new APIs. Also fix list_undefined.py for recent kernels. More environment variables are referenced now.
2018-09-14menuconfig: Fix typo re. menuconfig()Ulf Magnusson
No idea where "menu." came from.
2018-09-14Make 10.7.0 releasev10.7.0Ulf Magnusson
Adds commit b9b2ebb ("menuconfig: Add RGB color support to styles."), which makes it possible to specify colors in MENUCONFIG_STYLE using #RRGGBB notation. The rendered colors may be more or less exact depending on terminal capabilities. In the best case, we can redefine colors. Otherwise, we fall back on the closest available color. Contributed by Mitja Horvat (punkfluid).
2018-09-14menuconfig: Reorganize code a bitUlf Magnusson
- Point out where the styling part starts and ends - Move _style_attr() into the styling part (by moving the comment) - Move _name_and_val_str() and _expr_str() to later in the file, closer to where they're used (mostly in the help dialog) - Turn _input_dialog() input handling into one if-elif-... chain, like for the other dialogs.
2018-09-14menuconfig: Fix a small symbol information display issueUlf Magnusson
Prevent the 'Symbol/choice/menu/comment information' title string from disappearing when it won't fit on the terminal. Piggyback some code nits: - Remove a redundant 'global _style' - Use 'elif' after checking for KEY_RESIZE - Consistently use '_sel_node_i = _menu_scroll = 0' to reset positions, e.g. when entering menus
2018-09-14menuconfig: RGB color implementation nitsUlf Magnusson
- Make the coding style a bit more consistent with the rest of the code - Allow colors to be allocated from the xterm 256-color grayscale range, and emulate it when dynamically allocating colors. Never allocate above color number 255 though, as anything there would be unknown territory. - Switch back to consistently passing tuples to functions. This was the original design, before I suggested changing it... - Remove some repeated information from docstrings and fix some small typos - Make use of the element1=element2 feature in the style definition for the 'default' style
2018-09-14menuconfig: Add RGB color support to styles.Mitja HORVAT
Styles can now take a HTML notation as a color value: - on terminals that support RGB color mode these are rendered perfeclty - on 256 color terminals the closes matching color is used - on other terminals, the current color palette is scanned and the closes matching color is used. This has few quirks Example: Use "pure" red as selection foreground and "pure" blue as background: MENUCONFIG_STYLE="selection=fg:#ff0000,bg:#0000ff" Additionally, it is possible to copy the style from other elements, for example: MENUCONFIG_STYLE="selection=fg:#ff0000,bg:#0000ff path=selection" In the notation above, the "path" style will be copied from "selection".
2018-09-09Make 10.6.1 releasev10.6.1Ulf Magnusson
Adds commit af6c8dc ("menuconfig: Fix some glitching on small terminals"), which fixes some minor graphical glitching in the menuconfig interface when the terminal is too small for things to fit. Commit 374f488 ("Clean up kernel Makefile patch and add new targets") adds some new targets to the Linux makefile patch as well, though the makefile patch isn't bundled on PyPI.
2018-09-09menuconfig: Menu drawing code nitUlf Magnusson
2018-09-09Mention the jump-to menuconfig functionality in the text tooUlf Magnusson
2018-09-09Replace all menuconfig screenshots with a single gif animationUlf Magnusson
Makes the README much less spammy.
2018-09-09menuconfig: Fix some glitching on small terminalsUlf Magnusson
- 'mainmenu' and dialog titles now get clipped instead of disappearing when they don't fit - Lines of text no longer wrap to the next line (this glitch was mostly hidden if something was printed on the next line) - Text in a dialog can no longer end up on top of the dialog's frame
2018-09-08Fix a testsuite-related error for powerpcUlf Magnusson
The LD environment variable needs to be set now (in 4.19-rc2). It's referenced by LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION. The tests probably ought to run everything run via 'scriptconfig' in a clean environment, because 'scriptconfig' automatically picks up environment variables anyway. The current setup is nice in that it indirectly catches stuff that might affect the defconfig tests though, which don't use scriptconfig.
2018-09-08Clean up kernel Makefile patch and add new targetsUlf Magnusson
Add two new targets: - 'make kmenuconfig' runs the menuconfig interface - 'make dumpvarsconfig' lists all referenced environment variables together with their values (assuming they used the preprocessor syntax) Remove the 'kconfiglibtestconfig' target, which is no longer used. Also clean up the target definitions. The joys of ancient code.
2018-09-08Add some more thanks to the READMEUlf Magnusson
2018-09-08Make 10.6.0 releasev10.6.0Ulf Magnusson
New features: - Commit ac8d152 ("menuconfig: Add support for custom color schemes (aka styles)"), contributed by Mitja Horvat (pinkfluid), adds support for configuring the style (colors and attributes) of menuconfig interface elements by setting a new MENUCONFIG_STYLE environment variable. The format of MENUCONFIG_STYLE is documented in the menuconfig.py module docstring. This format is now used internally as well to define the predefined styles. - Commit a092257 ("Allow macro expansion within symbol names") adds support for expanding macros within symbol names. This could be used e.g. to define template Kconfig files that get instantiated by setting preprocessor variables before including them. Other changes: - Commit 6683213 ("Allow user values on 'option env' symbols") makes it possible to give 'option env' symbols user values. There's no good reason to disallow it (it's a leftover from an older way of implementing them), and it simplifies the code a bit. Note that 'option env' symbols are only supported for backwards compatibility at this point. Environment variables can be expanded directly.
2018-09-08menuconfig: Pass a style string to _styled_win()Ulf Magnusson
Enforces that all windows are created from styles defined via the new styling mechanism.
2018-09-08menuconfig: Print warnings instead of having StyleErrorUlf Magnusson
Mostly motivated by curses.COLORS, which depends on the terminal. It's probably friendlier to run even if the style gets a bit messed up, but it's also nice to point out problems. Missing style templates and missing styles to the left of '=' are pointed out now too, with the help of some flag hackery. Prefix the warnings with 'menuconfig warning:' to make it easier to distinguish them from warnings from Kconfiglib.
2018-09-08menuconfig: Ignore non-existent style templatesUlf Magnusson
This is consistent with non-existent styles being ignored, and gives some forwards/backwards compatibility. I wonder if there should be a warning for both instead. Piggyback some nits.
2018-09-07menuconfig: Fix off-by-one in range check for COLORSUlf Magnusson
"color values are expected to be in the range 0 to COLORS-1", from init_color(3ncurses).
2018-09-07menuconfig: Allow numbers to be used directly for colorsUlf Magnusson
Make the syntax 'fg:123' instead of 'fg:color123'. This is a bit easier to type. Hex and octal constants are accepted as well.
2018-09-07menuconfig: Add support for custom color schemes (aka styles)Mitja HORVAT
- introduce the _parse_styles() function which can take a string defintion and parse it into a color structure that can be used by UI elements - the _parse_styles() function modifies a global dictionary (_style) which is subsequentially used to style the UI elements - the _style_to_curses() function takes a string representation of style colors and converts it to ncurses attributes. For eaxmple: fg:brightred,bg:black,bold -> returns a color pair representing brightred and black ORed with A_BOLD - simplify _init_styles() as now the majority of the heavy lifting is done by _parse_styles(). _init_styles() initializes the default theme (either "defualt" or "monochrome") - terminals without color capabilities are now handled by using the "monochrome" theme. This theme doesn't use any colors but rather just bold and standout attribtes. - add support for the "underline" attribute - add doctstring at the beginning describing the style syntax - rename the _style() function to _style_attr() as it was conflicting with the global _style dictionary - introduce the StyleError exception; this one is thrown if an error in the style syntax is encountered
2018-09-05Clean up _expand_name() commentsUlf Magnusson
Some grammar, some copy-paste errors ('string' should be 'name').
2018-09-04Fix outdated comment re. $() yielding non-const symbolsUlf Magnusson
This is handled earlier in _tokenize() now.
2018-09-04Allow macro expansion within symbol namesUlf Magnusson
The C implementation supports this (though it's undocumented, and unused to far). This can be used e.g. to dynamically instatiate symbols from template files: Kconfig.template: config $(subsys)_LOG bool "Enable logging for $(subsys)" depends on $(subsys)_HAS_LOG ... other stuff dependent on $(subsys) Elsewhere: subsys = FOO source "Kconfig.template" subsys = BAR source "Kconfig.template" Pretty sure this can easily be abused, but it should be supported at least.
2018-09-03Test symbolic constants with 'is (not)'Ulf Magnusson
Saves a few % of total parsing time, and probably some evaluation time too. Microbenchmarking on Python 3 shows that 'is' is about 30% faster than '==' for comparing integers on my machine. This is safe even without assuming Python's small-integer optimization (which caches objects for small integers, guaranteeing that small integer literals always refer to the same object): We always refer to symbolic constants using their symbolic names (_T_*, etc.), so they're guaranteed to always refer to the same integer objects anyway. This optimization is safe for client code too, unless you get some unlikely situation where (1) there is no small-integer optimization, (2) expressions get pickled and unpickled or the like, which would be unsafe across Kconfiglib versions anyway, and (3) the client code tests symbolic constants with 'is' instead of '==' (which isn't advertised as safe, and a bad idea in general when pickling is involved). That's probably too obscure to worry about.
2018-08-30Allow user values on 'option env' symbolsUlf Magnusson
Gets rid of a check, doesn't hurt. The check was added before 'option env' was changed to just add a 'default' under the hood. Note: New Kconfig code doesn't need 'option env'. Environment variables are now expanded directly, including in the C tools. 'option env' is only maintained for backwards compatibility.
2018-08-29menuconfig: Fix outdated comment re. show-all modeUlf Magnusson
Invisible symbols are no longer shown in red outside of show-all mode.
2018-08-29Make 10.5.0 releasev10.5.0Ulf Magnusson
Adds a small menuconfig tweak that could avoid some user confusion: Commit 66a2bf5 ("menuconfig: Do not use red for invisible symbols outside of show-all mode")
2018-08-29menuconfig: Do not use red for invisible symbols outside of show-all modeUlf Magnusson
Invisible symbols can show up outside show-all mode if an invisible symbol has visible symbols in an implicit (indented) submenu. Printing them in red like in show-all mode is the perfectly consistent thing to do, but might look confusing/broken. Only print invisible symbols in red in show-all mode. Also change the bracket style for all invisible bool/tristate symbols to - - N_SYM -M- M_SYM -*- Y_SYM That makes it clear that they can't be changed, even when they show up outside show-all mode, and makes logical sense if that style is taken to always mean that the symbol value can't be changed. You lose a quick reference for whether a symbol is a bool or tristate, but it's not a huge deal.
2018-08-29Make 10.4.0 releasev10.4.0Ulf Magnusson
New features: - Commit 84bd863 ("menuconfig: Add a more 'make menuconfig'-like color scheme") adds an alternative menuconfig color scheme contributed by contributed by Mitja Horvat (pinkfluid). The new color scheme can be enabled by setting the environment variable MENUCONFIG_THEME to 'aquatic'. The default color scheme now also uses bold text for the selected entry, like the 'aquatic' theme. Fixes: - Commit d1e2a65 ("menuconfig: Always show implicit submenus with visible nodes") fixes a display issue involving prompt-only conditions where visible child nodes could disappear outside of show-all mode. Other changes: - Commit 0ed2ba0 ("Improve the running-without-Makefile-patch documentation") updates the documentation on how to run Kconfiglib on the Linux kernel without using the Makefile patch. - Misc. internal menuconfig refactoring.
2018-08-29menuconfig: Fix a case of needlessly turning on show-allUlf Magnusson
Show-all mode does not need to be enabled when jumping to an invisible symbol with visible children from an implicit submenu, because the invisible symbol will be shown anyway in that case. Explicitly check whether the jumped-to node would be shown instead, and enable show-all mode otherwise.
