[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 0/5] Makefile: Support merged and nested defconfigs.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 0/5] Makefile: Support merged and nested defconfigs.

[Sam Bobroff]

This is a combination and cleanup of the previous efforts by
Sam Bobroff and Elizabeth Liner to introduce merged defconfigs
and nested defconfig directories respectively.

Merged defconfigs allow us to create defconfig snippets for aspects
that are common across multiple machines and create a combined defconfig
from the snippets.  The support scripts for merged kernel defconfigs is reused.

Nested defconfig directories allow us to organize the defconfig
directory into sub-directories.  A likely use for this is to place
defconfigs into architecture-specific subdirectories.


Changes v1 -> v2:

This is a complete rework of the config merging system, discarding the .merge
files and instead using Makefile fragments included from the configuration
directories that invoke a Make function. This allows much better error handling
as well as a cleaner looking system (somewhat similar to the package .mk
files).

I've also added some documentation to explain what is supported and an example
to show how it's used.  I haven't touched the documentation before and I'm not
familiar with the formatting so I hope I've done it the right way and that it's
useful (feedback would be great). "make manual-html" seems to work at least.

+== Merged configurations
+
+Buildroot supports the use of the Linux kernel's +merge_config.sh+ script to
+create configurations by merging a set of partial configurations (or overlays)
+on top of a base configuration. This may be useful when there are several
+configurations that are specializations of a single generic configuration.
+
+Files in the +configs/+ directory with the extension
++.mk+ will be read by the top level Makefile and the Make function
++merge_config+ can be used within them to define new merged configurations.
+
+The merge_config function takes three parameters: the first is the name of the
+new configuration (which should end with +_defconfig+), the second is the name
+of the base configuration file and the third is a space separated list of the
+partial configuration files to merge from the +configs/+ directory. All files
+should be specified relative to the +configs/+ directory and the name of the
+Make fragment file should match the name of the configuration it creates.
+
+The new configuration can be selected as if it were a normal configuration, i.e. with
++make foo_defconfig+.
+
+Partial configurations have the same format as full configuration
+files except that they contain only a subset of values. They can be created by
+starting with a normal configuration file and deleting lines as appropriate.
+
+External configuration files from the +$(BR2_EXTERNAL)/configs+ directory are fully
+supported, and merge configurations may freely refer to files from either
+location.
+
+Example:
+
+If configs/foo_defconfig contains:
+-----
+BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_HOSTNAME="buildroot"
+-----
+
+And configs/bar_defconfig.mk contains:
+-----
+$(eval $(call merge_config,bar_defconfig,foo_defconfig,b.config))

+
+And configs/b.config contains:
+-----
+BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_ISSUE="Welcome to BAR"
+-----
+
+After running the command:
+-----
+make bar_defconfig

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/5] Add support for merged defconfigs

[Romain Naour]

Hi Sam, All,

Thanks for this new series!

I tested it by merging qemu_arm_vexpress_defconfig as base configuration file
with a arm_toolchain.config and efl.config partial configuration files.
The merged defconfig is named efl_on_arm_defconfig.

I think it's a "must have" for 2016.08.

Some comments bellow.

I would be good to split in two commits the Makefile changes and the documentation.

There is a problem here with make savedefconfig since BR2_DEFCONFIG =
$$(CONFIG_DIR)/.merge_config/.config and .merge_config directory is removed with
the last command.

I get:
*** Error while saving defconfig to: test/efl-1.17.1-merged/.merge_config/.config

BR2_DEFCONFIG should be set to configs/efl_on_arm_defconfig

I need more time to continue the review and testing.

Best regards,
Romain Naour

Ah, I'll take a look at that.

Thanks for the review :-) I'll wait for more comments before I send v3.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 2/5] Makefile: Generate %_defconfig recipes from macro.

[Sam Bobroff]

From: Patrick Williams <patrick@stwcx.xyz>

To reduce duplication in the %_defconfig recipes with $(TOPDIR) and
$(BR2_EXTERNAL) versions, generate these from a macro.  The macro is
now called on a list of directories containing the appropriate ones.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 3/5] Makefile: Support nested config directories

[Sam Bobroff]

From: Elizabeth Liner <eliner@us.ibm.com>

Extend the BR2_DEFCONFIG_PATH to support nested config directories.
This allows us to place config files in both .../config and
.../config/<arch>.

Both $(TOPDIR) and $(BR2_EXTERNAL) are supported.
