I want to compile each C file independently instead of including all
of them from zconf.y.

Split out confdata.c, expr.c, symbol.c, and preprocess.c .
These are low-hanging fruits.

All files in lxdialog/ are licensed under GPL-2.0+, and the rest are
under GPL-2.0. I added GPL-2.0 tags to test scripts in tests/.

Documentation/process/license-rules.rst does not suggest anything
about the flex/bison files. Because flex does not accept the C++
comment style at the very top of a file, I used the C style for
zconf.l, and so for zconf.y for consistency.

<title>kconfig: remove S_OTHER symbol type and correct dependency tracking</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2aabbed6774f231c57f8ae6bc4f856fb2a75cd6a</id>
<content type='text'>
The S_OTHER type could be set only when conf_read_simple() is reading
include/config/auto.conf file.

For example, CONFIG_FOO=y exists in include/config/auto.conf but it is
missing from the currently parsed Kconfig files, sym_lookup() allocates
a new symbol, and sets its type to S_OTHER.

Strangely, it will be set to S_STRING by conf_set_sym_val() a few lines
below while it is obviously bool or tristate type. On the other hand,
when CONFIG_BAR="bar" is being dropped from include/config/auto.conf,
its type remains S_OTHER. Because for_all_symbols() omits S_OTHER
symbols, conf_touch_deps() misses to touch include/config/bar.h

This behavior has been a pretty mystery for me, and digging the git
histroy did not help. At least, touching depfiles is broken for string
type symbols.

I removed S_OTHER entirely, and reimplemented it more simply.

If CONFIG_FOO was visible in the previous syncconfig, but is missing
now, what we want to do is quite simple; just call conf_touch_dep()
to touch include/config/foo.h instead of allocating a new symbol data.

<id>urn:sha1:f498926c47aa7d4f1b6d08af2ba16f3cf8fcb151</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit improves the messages of the recursive dependency.
Currently, sym-&gt;dir_dep.expr is not checked.  Hence, any dependency
in property visibility is regarded as the dependency of the symbol.

[Test Code 1]

  config A
          bool "a"
          depends on B

  config B
          bool "b"
          depends on A

[Test Code 2]

  config A
          bool "a" if B

  config B
          bool "b"
          depends on A

For both cases above, the same message is displayed:

        symbol B depends on A
        symbol A depends on B

This commit changes the message for the latter, like this:

        symbol B depends on A
        symbol A prompt is visible depending on B

Also, 'select' and 'imply' are distinguished.

<title>kconfig: report recursive dependency involving 'imply'</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5e8c5299d31519e0327be1020f309fa62dc53036</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, Kconfig does not complain about the recursive dependency
where 'imply' keywords are involved.

[Test Code]

  config A
          bool "a"

  config B
          bool "b"
          imply A
          depends on A

In the code above, Kconfig cannot calculate the symbol values correctly
due to the circular dependency.  For example, allyesconfig followed by
syncconfig results in an odd behavior because CONFIG_B becomes visible
in syncconfig.

  $ make allyesconfig
  scripts/kconfig/conf  --allyesconfig Kconfig
  #
  # configuration written to .config
  #
  $ cat .config
  #
  # Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT.
  # Main menu
  #
  CONFIG_A=y
  $ make syncconfig
  scripts/kconfig/conf  --syncconfig Kconfig
  *
  * Restart config...
  *
  *
  * Main menu
  *
  a (A) [Y/n/?] y
    b (B) [N/y/?] (NEW)

To detect this correctly, sym_check_expr_deps() should recurse to
not only sym-&gt;rev_dep.expr but also sym-&gt;implied.expr .

At this moment, sym_check_print_recursive() cannot distinguish
'select' and 'imply' since it does not know the precise context
where the recursive dependency has been hit.  This will be solved
by the next commit.

In fact, even the document and the unit-test are confused.  Using
'imply' does not solve recursive dependency since 'imply' addresses
the unmet direct dependency, which 'select' could cause.

<title>kconfig: error out when seeing recursive dependency</title>

<content type='text'>
Originally, recursive dependency was a fatal error for Kconfig
because Kconfig cannot compute symbol values in such a situation.

Commit d595cea62403 ("kconfig: print more info when we see a recursive
dependency") changed it to a warning, which I guess was not intentional.

Get it back to an error again.

Also, rename the unit test directory "warn_recursive_dep" to
"err_recursive_dep" so that it matches to the behavior.

<content type='text'>
Over time, the use of the flag SYMBOL_AUTO changed from initially
marking three automatically generated symbols ARCH, KERNELRELEASE and
UNAME_RELEASE to today's effect of protecting symbols from being
written out.

Currently, only symbols of type CHOICE and those with option
defconf_list set have that flag set.

Reflect that change in semantics in the flag's name.
