bugzilla #43067: kconfig is 8-bit characters only?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43067 asserts that

"The Linux Kernel Configuration system (lkc) expects 8 bit characters only (declared in scripts/kconfig/zconf.l: %option 8bit)."

but that drivers/mtd/nand/Kconfig uses a UTF-8 acute accented capital E 2 times.
I have confirmed that this does indeed muck up nconfig's output as described there.

Do we want to update Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt to require that
Kconfig text be 8-bit characters only (as zconf.l seems to expect) [and then update
this offending Kconfig file] or is someone interested in making *config support
UTF-8 characters?

thanks,
