Here is v2 to start to move compiler capability tests to Kconfig. V1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/16/610 I brushed up the implementation even more. Major changes for v2: [1] Environments and functions are expanded in the lexer (zconf.l) The parser (zconf.y) receives expanded tokens. This simplifies the implementation. [2] Implement only one built-in function 'shell'. This returns stdout from the command. We need something to return 'y' or 'n'. This is now implemented as a macro 'success'. [3] Macros (user-defined function) are defined by 'macro' keyword instead of string type symbol. ex1) macro success $(shell ($(1) && echo y) || echo n) ex2) macro cc-option $(success $CC -Werror $(1) -c -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null) My plan for v3 -------------- The MW is approaching, but I'd like to make it more lovely if I have some time. While I was writing these patches, I noticed a kind of similarity between Makefile and Kconfig. Makefile can define variables and functions to do text processing during the parse phase. After parsing, it builds up dependency graph, and moves on to the execution phase. Then, it generates objects as needed by checking time-stamps. [Makefile] OBJ := foo.o SRC := foo.c CC := gcc $(OBJ): $(SRC) $(CC) -c -o $(OBJ) $(SRC) [Makefile after text processing] foo.o: foo.c gcc -c -o foo.o foo.c Now, we are adding tools for text processing to Kconfig. Functions are statically expanded by the lexer. After all source files are parsed, Kconfig moves on to the evaluation phase. Then, users can tweak symbol values from menus. So, we should be able to describe Kconfig like follows: [Kconfig] MY_SYMBOL := CC_STACKPROTECTOR MY_PROMPT := "Stackprotector" success = $(shell ($(1) && echo y) || echo n) cc-option = $(success $CC -Werror $(1) -c -x c /dev/null -o /dev/null) config $(MY_SYMBOL) bool $(MY_PROMPT) depends on $(cc-option -fstack-protector) [Kconfig after text processing] config CC_STACKPROTECTOR bool "Stackptector" depends on y So, I think it is better to use '=' assignment for defining functions. I will remove the 'macro' keyword. Also, support variables. A variable is a function with no argument. So, it will be easy to implement it as a sub-set of function feature. It is better to support two flavors of assignments, '=' and ':=' as well.
