Sam Ravnborg 6840999b19 x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config
Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
all.config.

For a fix the diffstat is nice:
 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)

The patch reverts these commits:
 - 0f855aa64b ("kconfig: add helper to set
   config symbol from environment variable")
 - 2a113281f5 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
   set 64BIT with all*config targets")

Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
not needed.

With this patch we have following behaviour:

  # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
  option \ host arch      | 32bit         | 64bit
  =====================================================
  ./.                     | 32bit         | 64bit
  ARCH=x86                | 32bit         | 32bit
  ARCH=i386               | 32bit         | 32bit
  ARCH=x86_64             | 64bit         | 64bit

The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
precedence over the configuration.

So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
no matter what the configuration says.  The configuration will
be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
other way around.

This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
suprises here.

make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
and 64-bit using menuconfig.

Sam Ravnborg 0f855aa64b kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable
Add conf_set_env_sym() that can set an already defined symbol
based on the value of an environment variable.

Unknown symbols are silently ignored.
A warning is printed if the value of the environment variable
is unexpected.

This patch does this and at the same time introduce a few API
funtions used to access the help text.

The relevant api functions are introduced in the various frontends.

Karsten Wiese 3b354c557c [PATCH] kconfig: add "void conf_set_changed_callback(void (*fn)(void))", use it in qconf.cc
Added function sets "void (*conf_changed_callback)(void)".  Call it, if
.config's changed state changes.  Use above in qconf.cc to set gui's
save-widget's sensitvity.

Karsten Wiese bfc10001b1 [PATCH] kconfig: make sym_change_count static, let it be altered by 2 functions only
Those two functions are
	void sym_set_change_count(int count)
and
	void sym_add_change_count(int count)

All write accesses to sym_change_count are replaced by calls to above
functions.

Variable and changer-functions are moved to confdata.c.  IMO thats ok, as
sym_change_count is an attribute of the .config's change state.

Karsten Wiese b321429325 [PATCH] kconfig: new function "bool conf_get_changed(void)"
Run "make xconfig" on a freshly untarred kernel-tree.  Look at the floppy disk
icon of the qt application, that has just started: Its in a normal, active
state.

Mouse click on it: .config is being saved.

This patch series changes things so taht
after the mouse click on the floppy disk icon, the icon is greyed out.
If you mouse click on it now, nothing happens.

If you change some CONFIG_*, the floppy disk icon returns to "active state",
that is, if you mouse click it now, .config is written.

This patch:

Returns sym_change_count to reflect the .config's change state.
All read only accesses of
	sym_change_count
are replaced by calls to
	conf_get_changed()
.
mconfig.c is manipulated to ask for saving only when
conf_get_changed() returned true.

Roman Zippel c955ccafc3 kconfig: fix .config dependencies
This fixes one of the worst kbuild warts left - the broken dependencies used
to check and regenerate the .config file.  This was done via an indirect
dependency and the .config itself had an empty command, which can cause make
not to reread the changed .config file.

Instead of this we generate now a new file include/config/auto.conf from
.config, which is used for kbuild and has the proper dependencies.  It's also
the main make target now for all files generated during this step (and thus
replaces include/linux/autoconf.h).

This also means we can now relax the syntax requirements for the .config file
and we don't have to rewrite it all the time, i.e.  silentoldconfig only
writes .config now when it's necessary to keep it in sync with the Kconfig
files and even this can be suppressed by setting the environment variable
KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE, so the update can (and must) be done manually.

Roman Zippel 90389160ef [PATCH] kconfig: preset config during all*config
Allow to force setting of config variables during all{no,mod,yes,random}config
to a specific value.  For that conf first checks the KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
environment variable for a file name, otherwise it checks for
all{no,mod,yes,random}.config and all.config.  The file is a normal config
file, which presets the config variables, but they are still subject to normal
dependency checks.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
