* menuconfig: improive help text a bitLi Zefan2010-06-021-1/+1

* menuconfig: add support to show hidden options which have promptsLi Zefan2010-04-141-4/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usage: Press <Z> to show all config symbols which have prompts. Quote Tim Bird: | I've been bitten by this numerous times. I most often | use ftrace on ARM, but when I go back to x86, I almost | always go through a sequence of searching for the | function graph tracer in the menus, then realizing it's | completely missing until I disable CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. | | Is there any way to have the menu item appear, but be | unsettable unless the SIZE option is disabled? I'm | not a Kconfig guru... I myself found this useful too. For example, I need to test ftrace/tracing and want to be sure all the tracing features are enabled, so I enter the "Tracers" menu, and press <Z> to see if there is any config hidden. I also noticed gconfig and xconfig have a button "Show all options", but that's a bit too much, and I think normally what we are not interested in those configs which have no prompt thus can't be changed by users. Exmaple: --- Tracers -*- Kernel Function Tracer - - Kernel Function Graph Tracer [*] Interrupts-off Latency Tracer - - Preemption-off Latency Tracer [*] Sysprof Tracer Here you can see 2 tracers are not selectable, and then can find out how to make them selectable.

* kconfig: new configuration interface (nconfig)nir.tzachar@gmail.com2010-02-021-13/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch was inspired by the kernel projects page, where an ncurses replacement for menuconfig was mentioned (by Sam Ravnborg). Building on menuconfig, this patch implements a more modern look interface using ncurses and ncurses' satellite libraries (menu, panel, form). The implementation does not depend on lxdialog, which is currently distributed with the kernel. Signed-off-by: Nir Tzachar <nir.tzachar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
* menuconfig: wrap long help linesVadim Bendebury (вб)2010-02-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Help text for certain config options is very extensive (the text includes the names of all other options the option in question depends on). Long lines are not wrapped, making it impossible to see the list without scrolling horizontally. This patch adds some logic which wraps help screen lines at word boundaries to prevent truncating. Tested by running ARCH=powerpc make menuconfig O=/tmp/build which shows that the long lines are now wrapped, and ARCH=powerpc make xconfig O=/tmp/build to demonstrate that it still compiles and operates as expected.

* kconfig: make kconfig MinGW friendlyLadislav Michl2008-01-281-52/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kconfig is powerfull tool. So powerfull that more and more software projects are using it for configuration. So instead of fixing some of them one by one, lets fix it in kernel and wait for sync. This work was originaly done for PTXdist - GPL licensed build system for userlands and cross-compilers, but it will not hurt kernel kconfig either. PTXdist menuconfig now works on Windows linked with PDCurses and compiled using MinGW - there is no termios and signals. * Do not include <sys/wait.h> and <signal.h> (comes from times when lxdialog was separate process) * Do not mess with termios directly and let curses tell screen size. Comment to commit c8dc68ad0fbd934e78e913b8a8d7b45945db4930 says check for screen size could be removed later, but because it didn't happen for more than year I left it here as well. * Save cursor position added by Sam Signed-off-by: Ladislav Michl <ladis@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org>
* kconfig/menuconfig: distinguish between selected-by-another options and commentsMatej Laitl2007-10-121-8/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | menuconfig currently represents options implied by another option ('select' directive in Kconfig) by prefixing them with '---'. Unfortunately the same notation is used for comments. If the implied option is module capable, user can still switch between Y and M, all without any feedback until she visits option's help. (try saying M to MAC80211 and then toggling CFG80211) This patch changes notation of selected-by-another items by introducing 2 new representations for implied options: {*} or {M} for options selected by another modularized one, thus builtin or module capable, -*- or -M- for options that cannot be at the moment changed by user. The idea is to represent actual capability of the option by braces (dashes) around and to always report actual state by * or M inside.

* [PATCH] kconfig: new function "bool conf_get_changed(void)"Karsten Wiese2006-12-131-7/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Run "make xconfig" on a freshly untarred kernel-tree. Look at the floppy disk icon of the qt application, that has just started: Its in a normal, active state. Mouse click on it: .config is being saved. This patch series changes things so taht after the mouse click on the floppy disk icon, the icon is greyed out. If you mouse click on it now, nothing happens. If you change some CONFIG_*, the floppy disk icon returns to "active state", that is, if you mouse click it now, .config is written. This patch: Returns sym_change_count to reflect the .config's change state. All read only accesses of sym_change_count are replaced by calls to conf_get_changed() . mconfig.c is manipulated to ask for saving only when conf_get_changed() returned true.

* kconfig/lxdialog: let <ESC><ESC> behave as expectedSam Ravnborg2006-09-301-11/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | <ESC><ESC> is used to step one back in the dialogs. When lxdialog became built-in pressing <ESC> once would cause one step back and pressing <ESC><ESC> would cause two steps back. This patch - based on concept from Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> - makes one <ESC> a noop and pressing <ESC><ESC> will cause one step backward. In addition the final yes/no dialog now has the option to go back to the the kernel configuration. So if you get too far out you can now go back to configuring the kernel without saving and starting all over again. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

* kconfig/lxdialog: add a new theme bluetitle which is now defaultSam Ravnborg2006-09-301-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bluetitle theme is a slightly modified version of the colorscheme that -mm users has been used to. The bluetitle is more readable especially on some LCD screens so it is now default.

* [PATCH] Kconfig i18n supportArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-05-051-57/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds i18n support for make *config, allowing users to have the config process in their own language. No printk was harmed in the process, don't worry, so all the bug reports, kernel messages, etc, remain in english, just the user tools to configure the kernel are internationalized. Users not interested in translations can just unset the related LANG, LC_ALL, etc env variables and have the config process in plain english, something like: LANG= make menuconfig is enough for having the whole config process in english. Or just don't install any translation file. Translations for brazilian portuguese are being done by a team of volunteers at: http://www.visionflex.inf.br/kernel_ptbr/pmwiki.php/Principal/Traducoes To start the translation process: make update-po-config This will generate the pot template named scripts/kconfig/linux.pot, copy it to, say, ~/es.po, to start the translation for spanish. To test your translation, as root issue this command: msgfmt -o /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/linux.mo ~/es.po Replace "es" with your language code. Then execute, for instance: make menuconfig The current patch doesn't use any optimization to reduce the size of the generated .mo file, it is possible to use the config option as a key, but this doesn't prevent the current patch from being used or the translations done under the current scheme to be in any way lost if we chose to do any kind of keying. Thanks to Fabricio Vaccari for starting the pt_BR (brazilian portuguese) translation effort, Thiago Maciera for helping me with the gconf.cc (QT frontent) i18n coding and to all the volunteers that are already working on the first translation, to pt_BR.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+1090
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
