kconfig/mconf: Initialize the default locale at startup

2025-12-01T10:41:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3927c4a1084c48ef97f11281a0a43ecb2cb4d6f1 ] Fix bug where make menuconfig doesn't initialize the default locale, which causes ncurses menu borders to be displayed incorrectly (lqqqqk) in UTF-8 terminals that don't support VT100 ACS by default, such as PuTTY.

kconfig: menuconfig: remove jump_key::index

2023-07-24T15:59:32+00:00

You do not need to remember the index of each jump key because you can count it up after a key is pressed. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Jesse Taube

kconfig: menuconfig: simplify global jump key assignment

2023-07-24T15:59:32+00:00

Commit 95ac9b3b585d ("menuconfig: Assign jump keys per-page instead of globally") injected a lot of hacks to the bottom of the textbox infrastructure. I reverted many of them without changing the behavior. (almost) Now, the key markers are inserted when constructing the search result instead of updating the text buffer on-the-fly. The buffer passed to the textbox got back to a constant string. The ugly casts from (const char *) to (char *) went away. A disadvantage is that the same key numbers might be displayed multiple times in the dialog if you use a huge window (but I believe it is unlikely to happen).

kconfig: menuconfig: reorder functions to remove forward declarations

2023-04-17T02:03:56+00:00

Define helper functions before the callers so that forward declarations can go away. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: Add static text for search information in help menu

2022-12-29T03:00:07+00:00

Add few static text to explain how one can bring up the search dialog box by pressing the forward slash key anywhere on this interface. Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Chowdhury Acked-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: remove redundant (void *) cast in search_conf()

2022-11-21T01:18:39+00:00

The (void *) cast is redundant because the last argument of show_textbox_ext() is an opaque pointer. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: remove const qualifier from str_get()

2022-11-21T01:18:39+00:00

update_text() apparently edits the buffer returned by str_get(). (and there is no reason why it shouldn't) Remove 'const' quailifier and casting. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: mconf,nconf: remove unneeded '\0' termination after snprintf()

2021-04-14T06:22:49+00:00

snprintf() always terminates the destination buffer with '\0' even if the buffer is not long enough. (In this case, the last element of the buffer becomes '\0'.) The explicit termination is unneeded. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: change sym_change_count to a boolean flag

2021-04-14T06:22:49+00:00

sym_change_count has no good reason to be 'int' type. sym_set_change_count() compares the old and new values after casting both of them to (bool). I do not see any practical diffrence between sym_set_change_count(1) and sym_add_change_count(1). Use the boolean flag, conf_changed. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada
