2018-12-08Make {load,write}_config(filename=None) implement the standard behaviorUlf Magnusson
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.
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
