Adds commit 0c79d23 ("menuconfig: Be silent when changing LC_CTYPE to a
UTF-8 locale").
|
|
Tested, works fine.
|
|
Adds a small error message improvement, in commit 49831dd ("Give the
'source ...' line being parsed when a file can't be opened").
|
|
Adds a genconfig feature that can be used to avoid needless
reconfiguration, and improves the dumpvars output format.
- Commit dd1be54 ("genconfig: Support generating lists of files and
environment vars.")
- Commit f503ea3 ("dumpvars: Make the output format copy-pasteable")
|
|
Adds commit 443e6bb ("menuconfig: Fix help display on Python 2").
|
|
Do the opposite of what other people are doing and make menuconfig.py
Python 2-compatible. Turns out it's not that tricky after all, and it
makes everything consistently Python 2/3-compatible and streamlines
things.
- Commit 41b5891 ("menuconfig: Get rid of 'nonlocal'")
- Commit b2e211d ("menuconfig: Fall back on getch() when get_wch()
isn't available")
- Commit c3162be ("menuconfig: Only decode curses.erasechar() on Python
3")
- Commit fe6ed99 ("menuconfig: Import print_function for Python 2
compatibility")
- Commit c209188 ("menuconfig: Have hashbang point to 'python' instead
of 'python3'")
- Commit d577865 ("Remove Python 3 menuconfig special-casing from
Makefile patch")
- Commit 319f7f0 ("Update various comments now that menuconfig is
Python 2-compatible")
- Commit 5fbd70e ("Update setup.py now that menuconfig is Python
2-compatible")
Also investigate exactly what the Python version requirements are and tweak
and document things a bit:
- Commit e0baa79 ("Tweak python_requires to 2.7/3.2+")
- Commit 3a772a6 ("Add a section on version compatibility to the
README")
|
|
Many of the utilities need argparse, which was added in 3.2. Kconfiglib
itself is compatible with 3.1.
|
|
Remove the Python 3 installation prereq for windows-curses, and another
comment saying the menuconfig is Python 3 only.
|
|
Adds commit 22f2778 ("Mention that the load_config() message is
different for replace=False")
|
|
Fixes two API issues. Some backwards compatibility breakage was required
for the load_config()/write_config() message change, though the only
effect on most scripts will be less output on stdout unless/until
they're modified.
- Commit bf36f5d ("Improve warning control API (with backwards
compatibility)")
- Commit 55bc8c3 ("Have load_config() and write_(min_)config() return
messages")
Kconfiglib now also makes the version number available:
- Commit 455e366 ("Add kconfiglib.VERSION")
These are longstanding issues. I don't know of any other ones that would
warrant breaking backwards compatibility. Not going on some API changing
spree.

Fixes an obscure rsource crash, in commit 92791a3 ("Fix obscure crash
with rsource and $srctree pointing to a symlink").
|
|
Adds commit 175c1f5 ("Leave unchanged output files untouched"). This
avoids updating file modification timestamps when nothing has changed,
which can make it easier to avoid triggering redundant rebuilds.
|
|
Adds commit 437c6cc ("Use os.replace() if available in _save_old()"),
which gives rename() semantics on Windows, avoiding copying the file.
This was cherry-picked out of a larger change re. avoiding touching
files whose contents haven't changed. Will come later.
|
|
Adds commit 3aea9f7 ("Add '# end of <menu>' after menus in .config"),
which mirrors a change in the C tools. The compatibility tests now pass
again for the latest kernel.
|
|
Brings the format returned by Symbol/Choice/MenuNode.__str__()/custom_str()
closer to how things would usually be written by hand, and removes
spammy propagated dependencies from property conditions.
Propagated dependencies are still included in the 'depends on ...' line,
so no information is lost.
Properties without parent deps. propagated to their conditions are now
also available as MenuNode.orig_{prompt,defaults,selects,implies,ranges}.
- Commit bb33eed ("Strip direct deps. from property conditions in
Symbol/Choice/MenuNode.__str__()")
- Commit e1da7aa ("Display n/m/y without quotes")
- Commit 9f57bf9 ("Use the '<type> "prompt"' shorthand in __str__()")
Also clarifies what KconfigSyntaxError is doing:
- Commit 95515d4 ("Clarify that KconfigSyntaxError = KconfigError in
the docs").
|
|
Fixes a minor menuconfig interface bug in commit f962269 ("menuconfig:
Fix inconsistent top/bottom scroll offset due to off-by-one").
Some doc tweaks are included as well:
- Commit 841ab04 ("Mention that .config can be brought up-to-date via
menuconfig/guiconfig")
- Commit f8978b0 ("Say "removes" instead of "resets" in the
unset_value(s)() docstring")
|
|
- Commit aed7b40 ("Add guiconfig to PHONY in Makefile patch")
- Commit 50ded1d ("Make .config.old easier to discover")
|
|
Improves dependency-related documentation a bit, in commit 95b80e1
("Clarify direct_dep and dep documentation").
|
|
Improves documentation for the Symbol/Choice.referenced attribute, in
commit 814e2de ("Improve the 'referenced' docstring").
|
|
Move the global variable descriptions earlier, remove some redundant
comments, and clarify that the Python 3-only comment in setup.py is
talking about the terminal menuconfig.
|
|
Adds a Python 2/3-compatible GUI menuconfig, in commit 9be6b7b
("guiconfig: Add a Tkinter-based menuconfig").
See that commit and the updated README for a longer description.
|
|
This is a graphical configuration interface written in Tkinter. Like
menuconfig.py, it supports showing all symbols (with invisible symbols
in red) and jumping directly to symbols. Symbol values can also be
changed directly from the jump-to dialog.
When single-menu mode is enabled, a single menu is shown at a time, like
in the terminal menuconfig. Only this mode distinguishes between symbols
defined with 'config' and symbols defined with 'menuconfig'.
Compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3. Has been tested on X11,
Windows, and macOS.
To avoid having to carry around a bunch of GIFs, the image data is
embedded in guiconfig.py. To use separate GIF files instead, change
_USE_EMBEDDED_IMAGES to False. The image files can be found in
https://github.com/ulfalizer/Kconfiglib/tree/screenshots/guiconfig.
A new `make guiconfig` target in the Makefile patch will run the GUI
configuration interface on the Linux kernel.
|
|
Simplifies the filename calculation for .old files, in commit 4fed39d
("Never prepend '.' to $KCONFIG_CONFIG.old"). This makes it reliable to
refer to the backup file as $KCONFIG_CONFIG.old in scripts.
This is a backwards-incompatible change when $KCONFIG_CONFIG is set to a
filename that does not start with a '.', so the major version is
increased. Note that $KCONFIG_CONFIG is usually set to
<some path>/.config, so few people should be affected.
|
|
Makes sync_deps() safe to use in threaded scripts, in commit a664a6d
("Avoid chdir()ing in sync_deps()").
|
|
Fixes an obscure menuconfig display issue, in commit 4b387e0
("menuconfig: Fix display issue for unsatisfied-deps selected symbol
with children").
|
|
Adds a simple utility for initializing the configuration from an
existing configuration, in commit 4f1674f ("defconfig: Add script").
|
|
Simple script for initializing the configuration from an existing
configuration file (usually a minimal configuration).
Just copying the minimal configuration to .config would usually work,
due to Kconfig semantics, but having it be a full configuration file
from the start might be handier and less confusing.
|
|
Improves menuconfig.py behavior slightly, in commit 61591f0
("menuconfig: Improve space/enter behavior slightly").
|
|
Improves save/load UI design in the menuconfig, in commit 90c5573
("menuconfig: Remember last saved/loaded path and improve
_conf_changed").
|
|
Adds a (perhaps not noticeable) performance improvement to the
menuconfig, in commit a47615f ("menuconfig: Prune _shown_nodes()
recursion").
|
|
Fixes a display issue for m/y-valued 'menuconfig' symbols with disabled
optional prompts and visible children, in commit 37c6984 ("menuconfig:
Fix display issue for optional-prompt menuconfigs").
|
|
Makes menu paths shown in the menuconfig more informative, in commit
136c0e4 ("menuconfig: Include all parents in menu paths").
|
|
Adds a fix to avoid automatically turning on show-all in obscure cases
when loading a .config file from within the menuconfig interface: commit
50173b2 ("menuconfig: Avoid needlessly turning on show-all in rare
cases").
|
|
Fixes a minor menuconfig issue, in commit 08cfc33 ("menuconfig: Show
menus with unsatisfied 'visible if' in red in show-all mode").
|
|
Improves the savedefconfig help text a tiny bit, in commit 13f84c7
("savedefconfig: Have '--out MINIMAL_CONFIGURATION' instead of '--out
OUT'").
Also improves 'source' performance a bit.
|
|
Makes more documentation available via pydoc(3), in commit c70a45e
("Convert some comments to module docstrings in utilities").
|
|
Guess setuptools strictly isn't in the stdlib...
|
|
|
|
Adds a new savedefconfig script in commit b7a1ea6 ("savedefconfig: Add
script").
|
|
Minimal configuration files can already be generated from within the
menuconfig too, but having a script available can be handy for
scripting.
|
|
Adds a new style warning in commit df2d26f ("Warn for unquoted argument
to 'source', etc.").
|
|
Adds some minor optimization (and internal refactoring) in commit
c0b9b07 ("Refactor and optimize type parsing a bit").
|
|
Adds a silly small optimization in commit 8ddefea ("Import 'platform'
and 'subprocess' as needed").
|
|
Does more than just parsing.
|
|
- Commit 132e579 ("Give more helpful error messages when files are
missing") makes the hint in error messages for missing files more
helpful.
- Commit faa4476 ("setconfig: Fix help text format") fixes the format
of 'setconfig --help'.
- Commit 553cca8 ("Use a consistent style in small utilities") and
commit 66557ed ("Use a consistent style in examples") cleans the
utilities and examples up a bit and removes some unused imports.
|
|
|
|
Adds a small documentation improvement in commit 99a7af7 ("Document that
kconfig_filenames keeps absolute paths as-is").
|
|
Adds a utility for setting configuration values from the command line,
in commit 22d3cc3 ("setconfig: Add script").
|
|
This is a simple script for updating configuration values from the
command line, with (optional) checking that the assigned value matches
the actual symbol value afterwards (which it might not if there are
unsatisfied dependencies).
Sample usage:
$ setconfig FOO_SUPPORT=y BAR_BITS=8
This is useful for patching the configuration in automated build
systems, in a way that's safer than directly patching configuration
files.
|
|
Adds commit c9c7f59 ("Package LICENSE.txt in source distributions and
wheels"), by request. Maybe some distros require this.
