A bug was reported that caused localmodconfig to not keep all the
dependencies of ATH9K. This was caused by the kconfig file:
In drivers/net/wireless/ath/Kconfig:
---
if ATH_CARDS
config ATH_DEBUG
bool "Atheros wireless debugging"
---help---
Say Y, if you want to debug atheros wireless drivers.
Right now only ath9k makes use of this.
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/Kconfig"
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig"
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/Kconfig"
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/Kconfig"
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/ar5523/Kconfig"
source "drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/Kconfig"
endif
---
The current way kconfig works, it processes new source files after the
first file is completed. It creates an array of new source config files
and when the one file is finished, it continues with the next file.
Unfortunately, this means that it loses the fact that the source file is
within an "if" statement, and this means that each of these source file's
configs will not have the proper dependencies set.
As ATH9K requires ATH_CARDS set, the localmodconfig did not see that
dependency, and did not enable ATH_CARDS. When the oldconfig was run, it
forced ATH9K to be disabled.

When a config for a module is added to the list to save in the final
config file, add a print to show what dependencies are used. This is
useful to debug when a config is disabled by the make oldconfig after
localmodconfig is finished.
This print only appears if the environment variable LOCALMODCONFIG_DEBUG
is defined.

Pull char/misc driver update from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here's the big char / misc driver update for 3.10-rc1
A number of various driver updates, the majority being new
functionality in the MEI driver subsystem (it's now a subsystem, it
started out just a single driver), extcon updates, memory updates,
hyper-v updates, and a bunch of other small stuff that doesn't fit in
any other tree.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while"

Currently the odds to set each symbol is (rounded):
booleans: y: 50% n: 50%
tristates: y: 33% m: 33% n: 33%
Introduce a KCONFIG_PROBABILITY environment variable to tweak the
probabilities (in percentage), as such:
KCONFIG_PROBABILITY y:n split y:m:n split
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[1] unset or empty 50 : 50 33 : 33 : 34
[2] N N : 100-N N/2 : N/2 : 100-N
N:M N+M : 100-(N+M) N : M : 100-(N+M)
N:M:L N : 100-N M : L : 100-(M+L)

For reproducibility, it can be useful to be able to specify the
seed to use to seed the RNG.
Add a new KCONFIG_SEED environment variable which can be set to
the seed to use:
$ make KCONFIG_SEED=42 randconfig
$ sha1sum .config
70a128c8dcc61303069e1be352cce64114dfcbca .config
$ make KCONFIG_SEED=42 randconfig
$ sha1sum .config
70a128c8dcc61303069e1be352cce64114dfcbca .config
It's very usefull for eg. debugging the kconfig parser.

Currently, randconfig does randomise choice entries, unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
is specified.
For example, given those two files (Thomas' test-case):
---8<--- Config.test.in
config OPTIONA
bool "Option A"
choice
prompt "This is a choice"
config CHOICE_OPTIONA
bool "Choice Option A"
config CHOICE_OPTIONB
bool "Choice Option B"
endchoice
config OPTIONB
bool "Option B"
---8<--- Config.test.in
---8<--- config.defaults
CONFIG_OPTIONA=y
---8<--- config.defaults
And running:
./scripts/kconfig/conf --randconfig Config.test.in
does properly randomise the two choice symbols (and the two booleans).
However, running:
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=config.defaults \
./scripts/kconfig/conf --randconfig Config.test.in
does *not* reandomise the two choice entries, and only CHOICE_OPTIONA
will ever be selected. (OPTIONA will always be set (expected), and
OPTIONB will be be properly randomised (expected).)
This patch defers setting that a choice has a value until a symbol for
that choice is indeed set, so that choices are properly randomised when
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set, but not if a symbol for that choice is set.
Also, as a side-efect, this patch fixes the following case:
---8<---
choice
config OPTION_A
bool "Option A"
config OPTION_B
bool "Option B"
config OPTION_C
bool "Option C"
endchoice
---8<---
which could previously generate such .config files:
---8<--- ---8<---
CONFIG_OPTION_A=y CONFIG_OPTION_A=y
CONFIG_OPTION_B=y # CONFIG_OPTION_B is not set
# CONFIG_OPTION_C is not set CONFIG_OPTION_C=y
---8<--- ---8<---
Ie., the first entry in a choice is always set, plus zero or one of
the other options may be set.
This patch ensures that only one option may be set for a choice.

Changes v2 -> v3
- ensure only one symbol is set in a choice
Changes v1 -> v2:
- further postpone setting that a choice has a value until
one is indeed set
- do not print symbols that are part of an invisible choice
For randconfig, if a list of required symbols is specified with
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, such symbols do not "have a value" as per
sym_has_value(), but have the "valid" flag set.

Because the modules' symbole (CONFIG_MODULES) may not yet be set when
we check a symbol's tristate capabilty, we'll always find that tristate
symbols are booleans, even if we randomly decided that to enable modules:
sym_get_type(sym) always return boolean for tristates when modules_sym
has not been previously set to 'y' *and* its value calculated *and* its
visibility calculated, both of which only occur after we randomly assign
values to symbols.
Fix that by looking at the raw type of symbols. Tristate set to 'm' will
be promoted to 'y' when their values will be later calculated.

The *pkg targets are always run, so it makes no sense to cache the
generated specfile. This also fixes build errors when the specfile
becomes out of date, without the Makefile noticing it:
$ make rpm
works
$ echo yadadada >localversion-test
$ make rpm
fails, because kernel.spec assumes the old kernel release string

Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>
The source tree can contain lots of uninteresting data like tag or
cscope files, packaging which slows down make rpm needlessly. It can
also break the build, if the tree contains an unrelated file named
*.spec. The downside of this change is that new subdirectories have to
be added to the KBUILD_ALLDIRS variable in the top-level Makefile. The
upside is that the behavior is more predictable.

The current code does this:
if [ -f /usr/include/ncursesw/curses.h ]; then
echo '-I/usr/include/ncursesw -DCURSES_LOC="<ncursesw/curses.h>"'
elif [ -f /usr/include/ncurses/ncurses.h ]; then
echo '-I/usr/include/ncurses -DCURSES_LOC="<ncurses.h>"'
elif [ -f /usr/include/ncurses/curses.h ]; then
echo '-I/usr/include/ncurses -DCURSES_LOC="<ncurses/curses.h>"'
[...]
This is merely inconsistent:
- adding the full path to the directory in the -I directive,
- especially since that path is already a sub-path of the system
include path,
- and then repeating the sub-path in the #include directive.
Rationalise each include directive:
- only use the filename in the #include directive,
- keep the -I directives: they are always searched for before the
system include path; this ensures the correct header is used.
Using the -I directives and the filename-only in #include is more in
line with how pkg-config behaves, eg.:
$ pkg-config --cflags ncursesw
-I/usr/include/ncursesw
This paves the way for using pkg-config for CFLAGS, too, now we use it
to find the libraries.

Viresh noticed when using merge_config.sh that a source softlink
was being created even when he didn't specify the -O option.
The problem arises due to the previous commit 409f117e2d
which added the -O option. Basically if -O is not specified,
we still pass '-O=.' to the make command, which then generates
a source softlink to ./
This patch adds an extra check so if there is no -O specified
to merge_config.sh, we don't pass one on to make.

Remove perl from make headers_install by replacing a perl script (doing a
simple regex search and replace) with a smaller, faster, simpler,
POSIX-2008 shell script implementation. The new shell script is a single
for loop calling sed and piping its output through unifdef to produce the
target file.
Same as last time except for minor tweak to deal with code review from
here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.3/00078.html

When dealing with multiple sub-arches (like 32- and 64-bit on x86, for
example) generating a bunch of kernel tar archives with the same name
but for different sub-arches could get confusing and error-prone. Also,
the build process could overwrite otherwise unrelated builds and you
probably don't want that. So, add the architecture to the archive name
for more clarity and less shoot-yourself-in-the-foot practices.
