Michal,

Please pull this to revert:
    422c809: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG

It causes more harm that it fixes issues, and I couldn't find a proper
fix for now. To avoid breakage so close to the opening of the merge
window, it makes more sense to revert it than to wait for a fix.

As I already said earlier, I'll be on vacation the next two weeks, so
I should find some time to look back at this again, hopefully before
-rc1 is out (but any sane person that value his/her life should not hold
his/her breath...)

From: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

Hello Michal, All!

These are the patches against kconfig that I have accumulated for 3.11,
and for which I plan to later send a proper pull-request.

Note-whorthy this time:
  - fix values of tristates that are selected by boolean choices (Arve)
  - fix choice randomisation in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG    (me)
  - fix choice randomisation selecting more than one value in
    a choice (but only if it is conditional)                     (me)
  - fix choice-in-a-choice randomisation not selecting any value
    for the inner-most choice                                    (me)

Also, some code-cleanups and eye-candy:
  - mconf and nconf code cleanups                                (Dirk, Sedat)
  - mconf and nconf eye-candy                                    (Dirk)
  - scripts/config script-name in help text                      (Clément)
  - heuristic to sort found symbols by relevance                 (me)
  - more randconfig debugging help                               (me)

Note: this series is for review before I send an official pull-request.
I want to avoid the debacle [0] [1] of the last kconfig breakage I caused
with my previous kconfig "fix" to randomising choices in presence of
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG.

I would like to send an official pull-request early next week, so all of
these can land early in -next, so they get some real-life t4esting before
the next merge windows open. So please, please, test this carefully. ;-)

I tested this a bit, it works fine. Unless somebody else finds issues,
I'll merge it.

Could you please wait a few days (say friday, or monday), I know someone
whose supposed to do some testing on his use-case (Hello Thomas! ;-) ).

Thank you!

From: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

The parsing routines for Kconfig files use strtol(), but store and
render values as int. Switch types and formating to long to support a
wider range of values. For example, 0x80000000 wasn't representable.

0x80000000 does fit in an int. If it's printed as hex, it's treated as unsigned.
Is there a "0" missing, or am I missing something?

Changing all these "int" to "long" only matters on 64-bit platforms.
As kconfig is built on the host, this will cause different behavior when
cross-compiling 64-bit (I assume that's where you need it most) kernels
on a 32-bit or a 64-bit host.

Probably you wanted to use "long long" instead of "long", and switch
to "strtoll()", to make them always 64-bit?

Still, beware using 64-bit config symbols with arithmetic shell operations from
a Makefile, cfr. https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/13/200.

Sorry for only noticing now, after it went into 3.11-rc1.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

0x80000000 is 1 more than INT_MAX, but you're right about the hex
printing. Regardless, it was still being truncated in kconfig
(probably due to signed comparisons). I had to switch the formatting
since the type changed, though.

That's an excellent point; I hadn't considered the cross-compiling
from a 32-bit host.

Yeah, noted. I don't have plans to pass kconfig items through the shell.

Thanks for pointing it out! I don't think there is huge urgency since
nothing is (yet) using > INT_MAX values in kconfig. Regardless, I'll
send a new patch that switches to long long.
