support/kconfig: apply upstream nconfig ncurses/ncursesw fix

2018-01-16T22:23:05+00:00

Buildroot's "make nconfig" command stopped working a while ago on Gentoo systems. Running the command would result in a crash. The issue is caused by lxdialog's cflags which are also used to build nconfig; It would detect *ncursesw* and turn on WIDECHAR support -- but the Makefile would still link to plain *ncurses* while building nconfig (which was built without WIDECHAR support). This would cause a crash after using *wattrset* on a WINDOW instance. WIDECHAR *wattrset* would try to set the _color member in the WINDOW struct which does not exist in the NON-WIDECHAR ncurses instance. It would end up clobbering data outside the struct (usually _line entries). An upstream patch fixes the issue, so we're applying it to Buildroot's kconfig. Signed-off-by: Guillermo A.

merge_config.sh: create temporary files in /tmp

2016-01-31T08:09:52+00:00

Creating temporary files in /tmp (or the path pointed by $TMPDIR) allows the buildroot top directory to be read-only and shareable between multible builds. This follows what other scripts do, e.g. check-kernel-headers.sh. Signed-off-by: Henrique Marks Signed-off-by: Carlos Santos Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

kconfig/lxdialog: get ncurses CFLAGS with pkg-config

2015-01-07T21:26:53+00:00

This makes "make menuconfig" also work on systems where ncurses is not installed in a standard location (such as on NixOS). This patch changes ccflags() so that it tries pkg-config first, and only if pkg-config fails does it go back to the fallback/manual checks. This is the same algorithm that ldflags() already uses. [This patch is already applied upstream (is part of linux v3.18): https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=be8af2d54a66911693eddc556e4f7a866670082b I'm adding this instead of doing a full upstream kconfig sync because there was a conflict in one of the Buildroot kconfig patches (against linux 3.18-rc1), which I was unable to resolve. Just drop this patch next time Buildroot kconfig is synced against upstream. ] Signed-off-by: Bjørn Forsman Acked-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

infra: replace BUILDROOT_CONFIG with BR2_CONFIG

2014-02-09T16:00:13+00:00

To make the naming consistent (all user-visible options should be prefixed with BR2_). An entry is added to Makefile.legacy to warn users who have set BUILDROOT_CONFIG but not BR2_CONFIG. Still export BUILDROOT_CONFIG but pointing to some phony value, to make sure that scripts that still use it fail in a predictable way.

support/kconfig: bump to kconfig from linux-3.12

support/kconfig: remove useless patch

2013-11-14T11:29:49+00:00

Patches 02-cpp-comments-to-c-comments.patch changes C++-style comments into C-style comments. This is unneeded, since gcc accepts C++-style comments in C code anyway. Ditch that patch, that's one less we have to handle when updating from upstream. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Cc: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard
