Run:
make ARCH=arm menuconfig
And then select "System Type" -> "ARM system type". The kconfig
"choice" menu at this point looks empty.
It's because config ARCH_S3C2410 has a long prompt:
config ARCH_S3C2410
bool "Samsung S3C2410, S3C2412, S3C2413, S3C2416, S3C2440, S3C2442, S3C2443, S3C2450"
...
menuconfig centers the checklist according to this prompt without
considering the width of the list, and then things get wrong.

You can also notice this bug when using gconfig/xconfig.
It's because the SYMBOL_DEF_USER bit of an invisible symbol is cleared
when the config file is read:
int conf_read(const char *name)
{

for_all_symbols(i, sym) {
if (sym_has_value(sym) && !sym_is_choice_value(sym)) {
/* Reset values of generates values, so they'll appear

* doesn't quite work if the Kconfig and the saved
* configuration disagree.
*/
if (sym->visible == no && !conf_unsaved)
sym->flags &= ~SYMBOL_DEF_USER;
...
}
But a menu item which represents an invisible symbol is still
visible, if it's sub-menu is visible, so its SYMBOL_DEF_USER
bit should be set to indicate it's not NEW.

I myself found this useful too. For example, I need to test

enabled, so I enter the "Tracers" menu, and press <Z> to
see if there is any config hidden.
I also noticed gconfig and xconfig have a button "Show all options",

interested in those configs which have no prompt thus can't be

Minor perlcritic warning:
headerdep.pl: "return" statement with explicit "undef" at line 84, column 2. See page 199 of PBP. (Severity: 5)
The rationale according to PBP is that an explicit return of undef
(contrary to most people's expectations) doesn't
always evaluate as false. It has to with the fact that perl return value
depends on context the function is called. If function is used in
list context, the appropriate return value for false is an empty list;
whereas in scalar context the return value for false is undefined.
By just using a "return" both cases are handled.
In the context of a trivial script this doesn't matter. But one script
may be cut-paste into later code (most people like me only know 50%
of perl), that is why perlcritic always complains

This patch changes the order of sources being tagged to first scan
architecture includes, then the top-level include/ directory, and only
then the rest. It also takes into account, that many architectures have
more than one include directory, i.e., not only arch/$ARCH/include, but
also arch/$ARCH/mach-X/include etc.

Now I am pretty sure anyone using python3 for testing purposes will probably

While looking for something else I noticed that the symbol
hash function used by kconfig is quite poor. It doesn't
use any of the standard hash techniques but simply
adds up the string and then uses power of two masking,
which is both known to perform poorly.
The current x86 kconfig has over 7000 symbols.
When I instrumented it showed that the minimum hash chain
length was 16 and a significant number of them was over
30.
It didn't help that the hash table size was only 256 buckets.
This patch increases the hash table size to a larger prime
and switches to a FNV32 hash. I played around with a couple of hash
functions, but that one seemed to perform best with reasonable
hash table sizes.
Increasing the hash table size even further didn't
seem like a good idea, because there are a couple of global
walks which walk the complete hash table.
I also moved the unnamed bucket to 0. It's still the longest
of all the buckets (44 entries), but hopefully it's not
often hit except for the global walk which doesn't care.
The result is a much nicer distribution:
(first column bucket length, second number of buckets with that length)
1: 3505
2: 1236
3: 294
4: 52
5: 3
47: 1 <--- this is the unnamed symbols bucket
There are still some 5+ buckets, but increasing the hash table
even more would be likely not worth it.
This also cleans up the code slightly by removing hard coded
magic numbers.
I didn't notice a big performance difference either way
on my Nehalem system, but I presume it'll help somewhat
on slower systems.

includes the names of all other options the option in question depends
on). Long lines are not wrapped, making it impossible to see the list

This patch adds some logic which wraps help screen lines at word
boundaries to prevent truncating.
Tested by running

which shows that the long lines are now wrapped, and
ARCH=powerpc make xconfig O=/tmp/build
to demonstrate that it still compiles and operates as expected.
