Linus Torvalds 309667e53f Merge branch 'kconfig' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild
Pull kconfig changes from Michal Marek:
 "I forgot to send a pull request in time for the v3.8-rc1 merge window,
  so the list is a bit longer this time:

   - menuconfig enables extended colors in ncurses if the wide-character
     version is used.

   - CONFIG_ prefix can be specified in the environment to make life
     easier for people using kconfig multiple times in a single tree (no
     functional change in the kernel kconfig usage).

   - kconfig aborts on OOM.

   - inputboxes in menuconfig allow to move the cursor.

   - menuconfig has Save/Load buttons now.

   - xconfig build fix with new g++ and Qt3.

   - nconfig color scheme fix and help text update.

   - make oldconfig prints newlines when output is redirected.

   - some other minor fixes."

Michal Marek e3900e74f2 Merge branch 'kbuild/rc-fixes' into kbuild/kconfig
There is one kconfig fix in the rc-fixes branch that I forgot to submit
for 3.8, so let's add it to the kconfig branch for 3.9-rc1.

Stephen Warren 22435f3833 kbuild: create a rule to run the pre-processor on *.dts files
Create cmd_dtc_cpp to run the C pre-processor on *.dts file before
passing them to dtc for final compilation. This allows the use of #define
and #include within the .dts file.

This reverts commit 64b81ed7fb.

As Martin says about this paragraph:
    However, I can not reproduce this. The attached file contains both
    cases. [...] AFAICS, both versions behave equivalently. I suggest
    changing the documentation accordingly.

Stephen Warren 90b335fbbc kbuild: centralize .dts->.dtb rule
All architectures that use cmd_dtc do so in almost the same way. Create
a central build rule to avoid duplication. The one difference is that
most current uses of dtc build $(obj)/%.dtb from $(src)/dts/%.dts rather
than building the .dtb in the same directory as the .dts file. This
difference will be eliminated arch-by-arch in future patches.

MIPS is the exception here; it already uses the exact same rule as the
new common rule, so the duplicate is removed in this patch to avoid any
conflict. arch/mips changes courtesy of Ralf Baechle.

Update Documentation/kbuild to remove the explicit call to cmd_dtc from
the example, now that the rule exists in a centralized location.

Eric W. Biederman 5efe241eac kconfig: Add error handling to KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
- Only try to read the file specified if KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG is set to
  something other than the empty string or "1".

- Don't use stat to check the name passed to conf_read_simple so that
  zconf_fopen can find the file in the current directory or in SRCTREE
  removing a extremely source of confusing failure, where KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG
  was not interpreted with respect to the directory make was called in.

- If conf_read_simple fails complain clearly and stop processing.
  Allowing the simple debugging of typos.

- Clearly document the behavior so it is clear to users which
  values are treated as flags and which values are treated as
  filenames.

In order to support "make headers_install_all", it must be able to run

Michal Marek 8417da6f21 kbuild: Fix passing -Wno-* options to gcc 4.4+
Starting with 4.4, gcc will happily accept -Wno-<anything> in the
cc-option test and complain later when compiling a file that has some
other warning. This rather unexpected behavior is intentional as per
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR28322, so work around it by testing for support of
the opposite option (without the no-). Introduce a new Makefile function
cc-disable-warning that does this and update two uses of cc-option in
the toplevel Makefile.

Sam Ravnborg d8ecc5cd8e kbuild: asm-generic support
There is an increasing amount of header files
shared between individual architectures in asm-generic.
To avoid a lot of dummy wrapper files that just
include the corresponding file in asm-generic provide
some basic support in kbuild for this.

With the following patch an architecture can maintain
a list of files in the file arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/Kbuild

To use a generic file just add:

        generic-y += <name-of-header-file.h>

For each file listed kbuild will generate the necessary
wrapper in arch/$(ARCH)/include/generated/asm.

When installing userspace headers a wrapper is likewise created.

The original inspiration for this came from the unicore32
patchset - although a different method is used.

The patch includes several improvements from Arnd Bergmann.
Michael Marek contributed Makefile.asm-generic.

Remis Baima did an intial implementation along to achive
the same - see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/13352/
