Currently, only syncconfig creates or updates include/config/auto.conf
and some other files. Other config targets create or update only the
.config file.
When you configure and build the kernel from a pristine source tree,
any config target is followed by syncconfig in the build stage since
include/config/auto.conf is missing.
We are moving compiler tests from Makefile to Kconfig. It means that
parsing Kconfig files will be more costly since Kconfig invokes the
compiler commands internally. Thus, we want to avoid invoking Kconfig
twice (one for *config to create the .config, and one for syncconfig
to synchronize the auto.conf). If auto.conf does not exist, we can
generate all configuration files in the first configuration stage,
which will save the syncconfig in the build stage.
Please note this should be done only when auto.conf is missing. If
*config blindly did this, time stamp files under include/config/ would
be unnecessarily touched, triggering unneeded rebuild of objects.
I assume a scenario like this:
1. You have a source tree that has already been built
with CONFIG_FOO disabled
2. Run "make menuconfig" to enable CONFIG_FOO
3. CONFIG_FOO turns out to be unnecessary.
Run "make menuconfig" again to disable CONFIG_FOO
4. Run "make"
In this case, include/config/foo.h should not be touched since there
is no change in CONFIG_FOO. The sync process should be delayed until
the user really attempts to build the kernel.
This commit has another motivation; I want to suppress the 'No such
file or directory' warning from the 'include' directive.
The top-level Makefile includes auto.conf with '-include' directive,
like this:
ifeq ($(dot-config),1)
-include include/config/auto.conf
endif
This looks strange because auto.conf is mandatory when dot-config is 1.
I guess only the reason of using '-include' is to suppress the warning
'include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory' when building
from a clean tree. However, this has a side-effect; Make considers
the files included by '-include' are optional. Hence, Make continues
to build even if it fails to generate include/config/auto.conf. I will
change this in the next commit, but the warning message is annoying.
(At least, kbuild test robot reports it as a regression.)
With this commit, Kconfig will generate all configuration files together
with the .config and I guess it is a solution good enough to suppress
the warning.
Note:
GNU Make 4.2 or later does not display the warning from the 'include'
directive if include files are successfully generated. See GNU Make
commit 87a5f98d248f ("[SV 102] Don't show unnecessary include file
errors.") However, older GNU Make versions are still widely used.

According to the documentation [1], LINES and COLS are initialized by
initscr(); it does not say anything about the behavior when windows are

Do not rely on the current implementation of ncurses that updates
these variables on resize, but use the propper function calls or macros
to get window dimensions.
The use of the variables in main() was OK, but for the sake of
consistency it was modified to use the macro getmaxyx().

Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.
One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

nconf does not check the validity of the current menu when help is
requested (with either <F2>, '?' or 'h'). This leads to a NULL pointer
dereference when an empty menu is encountered.
The following reduced testcase exposes the problem:
config DEP
bool
menu "FOO"
config BAR
bool "BAR"
depends on DEP
endmenu
Issue will happen when entering menu "FOO" and requesting help.
nconf is the only front-end which do not filter the validity of the
current menu. Such filter can not really happen beforehand as other key
which does not deals with the current menu might be entered by the user,
so just bails out earlier if we encounter an invalid menu.

to copy/paste the code. The test wrt. menu validity added in this

For now, convert nconf to use menu_get_ext_help(), as do every other
front-end. We will deals with menu validity checks properly in a

When getting the help for a choice menu with a help section (for example
the "Choose SLAB allocator" menu) nconfig pops up a window with nothing
inside it. This is due to show_help() passing an empty string to
show_scroll_win()'s 3rd argument. The option really does have help
though, but it isn't a config symbol, so just add the help text for
the option, and don't try to add anything else like the config option

Searching: pressing '/' triggers interactive search mode.
nconfig performs a case insensitive search for the string
in the menu prompts (no regex support).
Pressing the up/down keys highlights the previous/next
