Jakub HorkýandNathan Chancellor 43c2931a95 kconfig/nconf: Initialize the default locale at startup
Fix bug where make nconfig doesn't initialize the default locale, which
causes ncurses menu borders to be displayed incorrectly (lqqqqk) in
UTF-8 terminals that don't support VT100 ACS by default, such as PuTTY.

Shankari AnandandMasahiro Yamada f468992936 kconfig: nconf: Ensure null termination where strncpy is used
strncpy() does not guarantee null-termination if the source string is
longer than the destination buffer.

Ensure the buffer is explicitly null-terminated to prevent potential
string overflows or undefined behavior.

Masahiro Yamada bd988e7cb8 kconfig: introduce choice_set_value() helper
Currently, sym_set_tristate_value() is used to set 'y' to a choice
member, which is confusing because it not only sets 'y' to the given
symbol but also tweaks flags of other symbols as a side effect.

Add a dedicated function for setting the value of the given choice.

Masahiro Yamada fde192511b kconfig: remove tristate choice support
I previously submitted a fix for a bug in the choice feature [1], where
I mentioned, "Another (much cleaner) approach would be to remove the
tristate choice support entirely".

There are more issues in the tristate choice feature. For example, you
can observe a couple of bugs in the following test code.

[Test Code]

    config MODULES
            def_bool y
            modules

    choice
            prompt "tristate choice"
            default A

    config A
            tristate "A"

    config B
            tristate "B"

    endchoice

Bug 1: the 'default' property is not correctly processed

'make alldefconfig' produces:

    CONFIG_MODULES=y
    # CONFIG_A is not set
    # CONFIG_B is not set

However, the correct output should be:

    CONFIG_MODULES=y
    CONFIG_A=y
    # CONFIG_B is not set

The unit test file, scripts/kconfig/tests/choice/alldef_expected_config,
is wrong as well.

Bug 2: choice members never get 'y' with randconfig

For the test code above, the following combinations are possible:

               A    B
        (1)    y    n
        (2)    n    y
        (3)    m    m
        (4)    m    n
        (5)    n    m
        (6)    n    n

'make randconfig' never produces (1) or (2).

These bugs are fixable, but a more critical problem is the lack of a
sensible syntax to specify the default for the tristate choice.
The default for the choice must be one of the choice members, which
cannot specify any of the patterns (3) through (6) above.

In addition, I have never seen it being used in a useful way.

The following commits removed unnecessary use of tristate choices:

 - df8df5e4bc ("usb: get rid of 'choice' for legacy gadget drivers")
 - bfb57ef054 ("rapidio: remove choice for enumeration")

This commit removes the tristate choice support entirely, which allows
me to delete a lot of code, making further refactoring easier.

Note:
This includes the revert of commit fa64e5f6a3 ("kconfig/symbol.c:
handle choice_values that depend on 'm' symbols"). It was suspicious
because it did not address the root cause but introduced inconsistency
in visibility between choice members and other symbols.

Masahiro Yamada 4dae9cf5cb kconfig: split list_head into a separate header
The struct list_head is often embedded in other structures, while other
code is used in C functions.

By separating struct list_head into its own header, other headers are no
longer required to include the entire list.h.

This is similar to the kernel space, where struct list_head is defined
in <linux/types.h> instead of <linux/list.h>.

Mihai MoldovanandMasahiro Yamada 8c94b430b9 kconfig: nconf: stop endless search loops
If the user selects the very first entry in a page and performs a
search-up operation, or selects the very last entry in a page and
performs a search-down operation that will not succeed (e.g., via
[/]asdfzzz[Up Arrow]), nconf will never terminate searching the page.

The reason is that in this case, the starting point will be set to -1
or n, which is then translated into (n - 1) (i.e., the last entry of
the page) or 0 (i.e., the first entry of the page) and finally the
search begins. This continues to work fine until the index reaches 0 or
(n - 1), at which point it will be decremented to -1 or incremented to
n, but not checked against the starting point right away. Instead, it's
wrapped around to the bottom or top again, after which the starting
point check occurs... and naturally fails.

My original implementation added another check for -1 before wrapping
the running index variable around, but Masahiro Yamada pointed out that
the actual issue is that the comparison point (starting point) exceeds
bounds (i.e., the [0,n-1] interval) in the first place and that,
instead, the starting point should be fixed.

This has the welcome side-effect of also fixing the case where the
starting point was n while searching down, which also lead to an
infinite loop.

OTOH, this code is now essentially all his work.

Amazingly, nobody seems to have been hit by this for 11 years - or at
the very least nobody bothered to debug and fix this.

Masahiro Yamada 08718745d8 kconfig: nconf: refactor in print_in_middle()
This helper is the same as the sample code in the NCURSES HOWTO [1],
but it is over-engineering to be used for nconf.

I do not see any good reason to use the 'float' type just for the
division by 2.

All the call-sites pass a non-NULL pointer to the first argument,
so 'if (win == NULL) win = stdscr;' is dead code.

'if (startx != 0) x = startx;' is dead code because 'x' will be
overridden some lines below, by 'x = startx + (int)temp;'.

All the call-sites pass a non-zero value to the second argument,
so 'if (starty != 0)' is always true.

getyx(win, y, x) is also dead-code because both 'y' and 'x' are
overridden.

All the call-sites pass 0 to the third parameter, so 'startx' can
be removed.

All the call-sites pass a non-zero value to the fourth parameter,
so 'if (width == 0) width = 80;' is dead code.

The window will be refreshed later, so there is no need to call
refresh() in this function.

Change the type of the last parameter from 'chtype' to 'int' to be
aligned with the prototype, 'int wattrset(WINDOW *win, int attrs);'

I also slightly cleaned up the indentation style.

Masahiro Yamada 2ba50da9ec kconfig: nconf: get rid of (void) casts from wattrset() calls
This reverts commit 10175ba65f ("nconfig: Silence unused return values
from wattrset").

With this patch applied, recent GCC versions can cleanly build nconf
without "value computed is not used" warnings.

The wattrset() used to be implemented as a macro, like this:

  #define wattrset(win,at) \
          (NCURSES_OK_ADDR(win) \
            ? ((win)->_attrs = NCURSES_CAST(attr_t, at), \
               OK) \
            : ERR)

The GCC bugzilla [1] reported a false-positive -Wunused-value warning
in a similar test case. It was fixed by GCC 4.4.1.

Let's revert that commit, and see if somebody will claim the issue.
