kconfig/menuconfig: lxdialog is now built-in

2006-09-30T09:19:19Z

lxdialog was previously called as an external program causing screen to flicker when used. With this patch lxdialog is now built-in. It is loosly based om previous work by: Petr Baudis Following is a list of changes: o Moved build of dialog routings to kconfig Makefile o menubox + checklist uses a new item list to hold all menu items o in util.c implmented helper function to deal with item list o menubox now uses parameters to save scroll state (avoids temp file) o textbox now get text to be displayed as parameter and not a file o make sure to properly delete subwin's before main windows o killed unused files: lxdialog.c msgbox.c o modified return value for ESC to match direct calling o in a few places the code has been adjusted to 80 char wide o in textbox a small refactoring was made to make code remotely readable o in mconf removed all unused stuff (functions/variables) Following is a list of know short comings: a) pressing ESC twice will be interpreted as two ESC presses b) resize does not work. menuconfig needs to be restarted to be adjusted Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

kbuild: change kbuild to not rely on incorrect GNU make behavior

2006-03-05T23:09:51Z

The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make. Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time, even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make. For more details on the incorrect behavior, see: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html Changes in this patch: - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY. - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly. - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether targets are up-to-date or not.

kconfig: fix /dev/null breakage

2006-01-21T11:03:09Z

While running "make menuconfig" and "make mrproper" some people experienced that /dev/null suddenly changed permissions or suddenly became a regular file. The main reason was that /dev/null was used as output to gcc in the check-lxdialog.sh script and gcc did some strange things with the output file; in this case /dev/null when it errorred out. Following patch implements a suggestion from Bryan O'Sullivan to use gcc -print-file-name=libxxx.so. Also the Makefile is adjusted to not resolve value of HOST_EXTRACFLAGS and HOST_LOADLIBES until they are actually used. This prevents us from calling gcc when running make *clean/mrproper Thanks to Eyal Lebedinsky and Jean Delvare for the first error reports. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg ---

kconfig: get rid of stray a.o, support ncursesw

2006-01-15T14:28:35Z

scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/check-lxdialog.sh uses gcc to check for what libraries are present. Redirect output to /dev/null so we do not generate an a.out. Also included support for ncursesw - so if present prefer that instead of ncurses. The order is now (first is preferred): 1) ncursesw 2) ncurses 3) curses The latter is to support SunOS.

kconfig: factor out ncurses check in a shell script

2006-01-08T17:39:44Z

Cleaning up the lxdialog Makefile by factoring out the ncurses compatibility checks. This made the checks much more obvious and easier to extend. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
