As discussed on kconfirm v4 [1], it was decided to move checks directly
into the kconfig interpreter once there are no findings from kconfirm.
This "reverse range" currently has no findings across the tree, so let's
add the check.
Currently, if a reverse range is attempted, such as:
config EXAMPLE
int "Reverse range example"
range 2 1
then the value of the option defaults to its "lower" limit of 2. If the
option is visible in the frontend, then the user gets trapped in the value
selection interface, since there is no value that is actually valid for
the user to set.
Note that this only checks ranges that use constant values. Statically
checking ranges using symbols would require SAT solving, or similar.
In the future, the code should be refactored to store range values as
numerics so we can avoid calling strtoll() and strtoull() multiple times.

As suggested by Nicolas while reviewing another Kconfig property error [1],
we can add a prop_err() function to simplify the tracking and display of
Kconfig property errors.
Note that the formatting of the warning printing is changed slightly
(adding a space) to better match the formatting used by gcc. This causes
a change to the expected test output for the existing warnings that call
prop_warn() and menu_warn().

If the last symbol of a recursive dependency is a choice value,
sym_check_print_recursive() pushes the on-stack cv_stack onto the
dependency stack. If the choice is then not found on the stack, the
function prints "unexpected recursive dependency error" and returns
without removing cv_stack again. check_top is left pointing into the
stack frame of the returned function, and the next dep_stack_remove()
dereferences it:
AddressSanitizer: stack-use-after-return ... in dep_stack_remove
This can be triggered by an (invalid) Kconfig file in which a symbol is
a choice value of two choices and the second choice depends on it:
choice
prompt "c1"
config A
bool "a"
endchoice
choice
prompt "c2"
depends on A
config A
bool "a"
endchoice
Jump to the existing cleanup at the end of the function instead of
returning directly.

For a simply expanded variable, variable_add() frees the old value of an
existing variable (or allocates a new variable with an uninitialized
value) before expanding the right-hand side. If the right-hand side
refers to the variable itself, which is a common idiom in Makefiles,
e.g.
X := 1
X := $(X) 2
the expansion reads the freed (or uninitialized) value. With ASan this
is reported as a heap-use-after-free, or a SEGV if X was undefined.
Without ASan, X silently ends up as " 2" instead of "1 2".
Expand the right-hand side before updating the variable, initialize the
value of a newly created variable, and only free the old value when it
is actually replaced. Add a test case for this.

When searching for config symbols, the search results popup
will now display a count of the results in the title bar,
e.g. "Search Results (42)". This helps the user to gauge the
number of matches quickly and refine their search if necessary,
instead of having to scroll down by an indefinite amount (especially

When running make localmodconfig, streamline_config.pl reads loaded
modules and maps each module object to its corresponding Kconfig
symbol(s) using repository Makefiles.
In several instances, a loaded module corresponds to an object
controlled by a boolean symbol (e.g. config FOO declared as bool), or is
a composite module that depends on a boolean configuration. Because
boolean options only accept "=y" or disabled, they cannot be configured
as loadable modules ("=m").
Previously, if such a symbol was not already built-in ("=y") in the
baseline configuration, the final integrity check emitted an ambiguous
diagnostic. For example
foo did not have configs CONFIG_FOO
Further investigation is required by developers to determine whether the
module was out-of-tree, its dependencies were unmet, or it failed due to
a type constraint. Address this by:
1. Tracking symbol types in a %types hash during Kconfig parsing.
2. Enhancing the final integrity check when running localmodconfig
(!$localyesconfig) to explicitly annotate boolean symbols.
For example:
module cec did not have configs CONFIG_CEC_CORE (tristate) CONFIG_RAS_CEC (boolean, not supported with =m)

sym_get_near_range_bound() is meant to check whether the given value is
outside of the active range of an int/hex symbol, and is called with the
symbol's current value from sym_calc_value() and with the default value
from sym_get_string_default().
Since commit 9b8719973ee2 ("kconfig: use unsigned integers for hex range
checks") it ignores its value argument and uses the current value of the
symbol (via sym_get_range_val()) instead. As a result, an out-of-range
default is no longer clamped in sym_get_string_default(), and
savedefconfig writes out values that are equal to the effective default
again, for example CONFIG_A=4 for:
config A
int "a"
range 1 4
default 8
The existing savedefconfig_range test did not catch this because it only
covers symbols without a prompt.
Parse the value argument again, and add a test case for a symbol with a
prompt.

If a choice is visible but none of its choice values is, conf_choice()
counts cnt == 0 visible values and finds no default. When the choice has
to be asked, e.g. because a new symbol was added to the same menu
(oldconfig, syncconfig) or because stdin is at EOF (oldaskconfig), the
loop that maps the answer to a menu entry never finds one and the
while (1) loop repeats forever, printing "choice[1-0?]: 0" each time.
This happens in the tree for s390 when the compiler supports none of the
-march=z* options (e.g. a non-s390 host compiler), so that all values of
the "Processor type" choice are invisible:
$ make ARCH=s390 defconfig
$ sed -i '/^CONFIG_NR_CPUS=/d' .config
$ make ARCH=s390 oldconfig # hangs
Before the removal of tristate choice support, conf_choice() returned
early in this case. Do the same when there is no visible choice value.

Kconfig has offered "def_bool" and "def_tristate" as a shorthand for a
type definition plus a default since before the git era, but has never
offered the equivalent for the other three types. Conor Dooley ran into
this gap[1] when fixing a symbol that had been given the wrong type:
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as "def_string", but in this
case we can use "default" to propagate the value of ...
Nothing in the grammar requires the restriction. The rule that consumes
a default is already type agnostic. Add the three missing types. No
changes are needed to existing diagnostics. E.g. declaring a symbol
"bool" and then assigning it with "def_string" still reports
warning: ignoring type redefinition of 'CONFLICT' from 'bool' to 'string'
Added tests for the types.
Build tested ARCH=x86_64 with GCC 16.2.0. Tests pass with "make testconfig".

randconfig checks the numeric range of each probability but does not
validate where strtol() stops. For example, KCONFIG_PROBABILITY=50% is
accepted as 50:0:0: the '%' is parsed repeatedly as zero. For the
documented value 50, tristate y/m/n probabilities are 25%/25%/50%.
With 50%, both y/m probabilities silently become zero, reducing the
coverage of random configuration builds. Empty fields and extra fields
are also accepted.
Warn when the value does not follow the documented decimal format. For
malformed inputs whose parsed probabilities are in range, preserve the
existing interpretation unless KCONFIG_WERROR is set. In that case, exit
with an error before writing the configuration. Leading whitespace and
signs are accepted by strtol(), but also trigger the warning because they
are outside the documented format.
Keep the strtol() result as long until the range check. This rejects
out-of-range values that narrowing to int previously made valid, such as
4294967296 becoming zero on a 64-bit host, regardless of KCONFIG_WERROR.
Add regression tests for one warning per malformed input, preserved
configurations, KCONFIG_WERROR, out-of-range values, the supported
probability formats, and the documented empty-value default.

While 'hex' values should use the bounds of 64-bit unsigned integers, the
range values are treated as signed (checks use strtoll).
For example:
config HEX_RANGE
hex
range 0 0xfffffffffffffffe
default 0xffffffffffffffff
the default value should adjust down to the upper bound of
0xfffffffffffffffe, but since the check incorrectly parses both as
LLONG_MAX, the value stays at the out-of-range default of
0xffffffffffffffff.
To fix this, let's use a union of signed and unsigned integers to
represent both 'int' and 'hex' range values, then use both strtoll and
strtoull where appropriate.

Currently, user input of out-of-bounds values for 'int' and 'hex' options
is possible, leading to later silent failures in Kconfig if that value is
used in a comparison, or a warning by GCC or error by Clang if used in the
C code.
Let's factor out the out-of-bounds check on constants, so that it can be
reused for checking user input.
The frontend will now reject an attempted user input of an out-of-bounds
numeric value, similarly to how a value outside the active 'range' already
does.
For migration of existing configurations, a .config file with an
out-of-bounds numeric value will be allowed for now, but will warn the
user when read in by confdata.c

Using a numeric option of one type (e.g. 'int') to determine the value of
a different numeric type (e.g. 'hex') currently fails silently in various
ways if attempted, because the underlying string representation is naively
reused.
Example 1:
config I
int
default -1
config HEX_DEFAULT_INT
hex
default I
Here, HEX_DEFAULT_INT actually gets set to '0x-1', which is of course not
a valid hex value.
Example 2:
config H
hex
default A
config INT_DEFAULT_HEX
int
default H
Here, INT_DEFAULT_HEX actually gets set to 'A', without even converting
into the base-10 equivalent of 10. This value, 'A', is otherwise a
rejected int value if entered in the frontend, or read in from an existing
.config file.
These int-hex mismatches currently do not appear anywhere in the tree, so
it is already safe to make these error out.

The Kconfig interpreter internally represents constants as strings, then
attempts to parse them as 64-bit signed integers for 'int' options, and
64-bit unsigned integers for 'hex' options.
However, there is currently no check that the conversion succeeds, leading
to failures when the values are actually used. For example:
config LARGE_INT
int
default 10000000000000000000
config BUGGED_INT_COMPARISON
bool
default y if LARGE_INT < 2
Obviously 10000000000000000000 is larger than 2, but the Kconfig
interpreter will fallback to comparing the two values with strcmp() after
the numeric conversion fails, causing the first character, '1', to be
compared with '2', and giving the wrong result.
Since none of these out-of-bounds values are used as constants anywhere in
the tree, we can already make these error out.

The Kconfig interpreter currently allows defaults that are outside of the
range bounds.
In these cases, the 'sym_validate_range' function will adjust the default
value to the nearest range bound. For example, see this example:
config A
int
range 1 2
default 16
Here, since the default value of 16 is greater than the bounds, the
effective default value gets adjusted down to the upper bound, 2.
However, 'savedefconfig' writes non-default values, and without being
aware of the automatic adjustment to the range bound, it would write: A=2
This limitation is also documented in a comment: "The following fails to
handle the situation where a default value is further limited by the valid
range."
To resolve this, let's factor out the default-range adjustment logic from
the existing 'sym_validate_range' function into its own
'sym_get_near_range_bound' function for 'savedefconfig' to use too, so
that it compares against the effective value.
Adds tests, accordingly.

Currently, it is possible to create recursive ranges with Kconfig, such as:
config C
int "Enable C"
default 1
range A B
config A
int "Enable A"
default 2
range B C
config B
int "Enable B"
default 3
range A C
The current outcome of this example above, is that all 3 options are set to 2.
There is currently no warning or error if a user attempts this.
Several attributes are already checked for recursion, including 'depends on',
'select', and 'imply', and we can extend this to 'range' for numeric options
(int and hex types).
Recursive ranges are currently not used anywhere in the tree, so it is already
safe to make this a hard error.

The Kconfig frontend should render options that depend on a
previous option in the submenu of that previous option. But
currently, this breaks for negative dependencies. For example,
option FOO may be rendered in the submenu of option BAR, despite
FOO actually depending on !BAR.
Let's fix this ironic rendering by modifying Kconfig to explicitly
check negative dependencies.
I've only tested locally on x86, but as far as I can tell, this only
changes how 2 options are rendered in the menu:
1. NTFS3_FS, no longer in the NTFS_FS submenu, and
2. MTD_BLOCK_RO, no longer in the MTD_BLOCK submenu.

When a non-interactive 'make oldconfig' or 'syncconfig' meets a new int
or hex symbol whose default cannot be applied, conf_string() reads a
value from stdin. At end of file fgets() returns NULL, no value is set
and the loop asks again. The result is an endless loop which fills the
output until it exhausts memory, rather than a clean failure.
Detect this in conf_string(): if the value cannot be set and stdin is at
end of file, stop with an error that names the symbol.
Note that a symbol with no default doesn't trigger this, since
sym_calc_value() falls back to 0, which is accepted at end of file. The
loop is triggered by a broken Kconfig file, with a default whose text
fails sym_string_valid().
Such mistakes do creep in from time to time and are hard to debug, since
the build fills the log with repeated prompts instead of pointing at the
offending symbol. Some bad defaults draw a parse-time warning, but
menu_validate_number() accepts a reference to any int or hex symbol, so
a cross-type reference loops with no warning at all. For example, "0xff"
is not a valid int value:
config HEXSYM
hex
default 0xff
config VAL
int "Value"
default HEXSYM
Interactive use is unaffected, since feof() only becomes true once a
read actually hits end of file: an invalid answer at a terminal still
re-prompts, while Ctrl-D at such a prompt exits with the error instead
of looping. bool and tristate symbols and choices already accept the
default on an empty line, so they still take their defaults in a
non-interactive build.
Tested with int and hex symbols carrying such defaults: with empty
stdin, the code without this change produces around 190MB of repeated
prompts within two seconds, while with the change it exits 1 naming the
symbol. Piped and interactive (pty) sessions still re-prompt on an
invalid answer and then accept a valid one. A new string symbol with no
default still takes the empty string at end of file, since any text is
valid for a string.

merge_config.sh currently creates a temporary file in the current
directory. Create it under $OUTPUT instead, which allows running the
script against a read-only source tree.
The default behavior is unchanged: $OUTPUT is "." so the file stays in
the cwd.

kbuild: Use ld.lld for linking host programs when LLVM is set
|

When reading .config input, Kconfig stores user-provided values first
and then resolves the final value after applying dependencies, ranges,
and other constraints.
If the final value differs from the user input, Kconfig already tracks
that state internally, but it does not provide a focused diagnostic to
show which explicit inputs were adjusted. This is particularly confusing
for requested values that get forced down by unmet dependencies or
clamped by ranges.
Add an opt-in diagnostic controlled by KCONFIG_WARN_CHANGED_INPUT. Emit
the warnings from conf_write() and conf_write_defconfig() after value
resolution. Print the diagnostic to stderr directly, not through the
normal message callback, so it remains visible when conf is run with -s,
such as from make -s.
Keep the diagnostic out of the conf_message() formatting buffer so long
warning lists are not truncated, and mark processed symbols as written
before the SYMBOL_WRITE check so duplicate menu nodes cannot emit
duplicate warnings.
Document the new environment variable and add tests for olddefconfig,
savedefconfig, and the silent-conf path.

The err_repeated_inc test was added with an expected stderr fixture
that does not match the diagnostic printed by kconfig.
Running "make testconfig" currently fails in that test even though the
parser reports the duplicated include correctly:
[stderr]
Kconfig.inc1:4: error: repeated inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
Kconfig.inc2:3: note: location of first inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
The fixture expects "Repeated" and "Location" with capital letters, but
the diagnostic emitted by scripts/kconfig/util.c uses lowercase words.

Add 'make kconfig-sym-check', a static checker that finds Kconfig
symbols referenced in expressions (select, depends on, default, etc.)
but never defined via config/menuconfig anywhere in the tree. New
dangling symbols are reported as errors (exit 1) unless they are
listed in an exclusion file, e.g.
KCONFIG_SYM_CHECK_EXCLUDES=sym-check-excludes make kconfig-sym-check
The exclusion file lists one symbol per line; blank lines and lines
starting with '#' are ignored.
The checker also warns about uppercase N/Y/M used as tristate literal
values following the same logic as checkpatch.
This new static checker is the script used for [1] with a few
improvements to avoid some false positives.

In conf_askvalue(), the 'def' argument (retrieved via sym_get_string_value)
can be NULL. While current call sites ensure that 'def' is valid,
calling printf("%s\n", def) is technically undefined behavior and could
lead to a segmentation fault on certain libc implementations if the
function were called with a NULL pointer in the future.
Improve the robustness of conf_askvalue() by providing an empty string
as a fallback.
Additionally, remove the redundant re-initialization of the 'line'
buffer inside the !sym_is_changeable(sym) block, as it is already
properly initialized at the function entry.

Let kconfig exit with error on duplicated Kconfig file inclusion.
Repeated inclusion of Kbuild files are considered bad-practise with
regard to maintenance; and Kconfig language is rich enough that there
should be no need for that.
If repeated inclusion of Kconfig files is detected, error out with
messages like:
Kconfig.inc1:4: error: repeated inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
Kconfig.inc2:3: note: location of first inclusion of Kconfig.inc3
While commit f094f8a1b273 ("kconfig: allow multiple inclusion of the
same file") introduced detection of recursive inclusions of Kconfig
files, it explicitly allowed repeated inclusions, unfortunately w/o
reasoning.

merge_config.sh shell/sed/grep loop scales poorly and is slow.
With Yocto genericarm64 kernel and around 190 config fragments
the script takes more than 20 minutes to run on a fast build machine.
Re-implementation with awk does the same job in 10 seconds.
Using awk since it is likely available in the build environments
and using perl, python etc would introduce more complex runtime
dependencies. awk is good enough and lot better than shell/sed/grep.
Output stays the same but changed execution time means that
parallel job output may be ordered differently.

Extend the "depends on" syntax to support conditional dependencies
using "depends on X if Y". While functionally equivalent to "depends
on X || (Y == n)", "depends on X if Y" is much more readable and
makes the kconfig language uniform in supporting the "if <expr>"
suffix.
This also improves readability for "optional" dependencies, which
are the subset of conditional dependencies where X is Y.
Previously such optional dependencies had to be expressed as
the counterintuitive "depends on X || !X", now this can be
represented as "depends on X if X".
The change is implemented by converting the "X if Y" syntax into the
"X || (Y == n)" syntax during "depends on" token processing.
