These files were taken from the Linux 5.14 Kernel Configuration System and
modified for the OpenWrt Buildroot:
- Removed nconf, gconf, tests and kernel configuration targets.
- Adjusted the Makefile to compile outside the kernel.
- Always use default file when running make all{no,mod,yes}config.
- Added a 'reset' command to reset config when the target changes.
- Allow config reading from & writing to a different file.
- Allow 'source' command to use globs to include multiple files.
- Don't warn when selecting a symbol with unmet direct dependencies.
- Don't write auto.conf and other files under include/ directory.
- Reverted a commit to allow use of '/' & '.' in unquoted config symbols.
There are too many of those in OpenWrt right now.
- Reverted a commit that was issuing a warning when there were more than
one help text. This is used in a few packages to use different texts
for the menuconfig help, and the ipkg package description.
- Reverted an upstream change that avoids writing symbols that are not
visible to .config, which breaks OpenWrt busybox's '.config' generation
logic.
- Treat recursive dependency as a warning only; add a --fatalrecursive
option to conf to treat recursive deps as a fatal error.
- Use pre-built *.lex.c *.tab.[ch] files by default, to avoid depending on
flex & bison. Rebuild/remove these files only if running make with
BUILD_SHIPPED_FILES defined
