[ Upstream commit fbac5977d81cb2b2b7e37b11c459055d9585273c ]

An unterminated string literal followed by new line is passed to the
parser (with "multi-line strings not supported" warning shown), then
handled properly there.

On the other hand, an unterminated string literal at end of file is
never passed to the parser, then results in memory leak.

[Test Code]

  ----------(Kconfig begin)----------
  source "Kconfig.inc"

  config A
          bool "a"
  -----------(Kconfig end)-----------

  --------(Kconfig.inc begin)--------
  config B
          bool "b\No new line at end of file
  ---------(Kconfig.inc end)---------

[Summary from Valgrind]

  Before the fix:

    LEAK SUMMARY:
       definitely lost: 16 bytes in 1 blocks
       ...

  After the fix:

    LEAK SUMMARY:
       definitely lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
       ...

Eliminate the memory leak path by handling this case. Of course, such
a Kconfig file is wrong already, so I will add an error message later.

[ Upstream commit 77c1c0fa8b1477c5799bdad65026ea5ff676da44 ]

Currently, warn_ignore_character() displays invalid file name and
line number.

The lexer should use current_file-&gt;name and yylineno, while the parser
should use zconf_curname() and zconf_lineno().

This difference comes from that the lexer is always going ahead
of the parser. The parser needs to look ahead one token to make a
shift/reduce decision, so the lexer is requested to scan more text
from the input file.

This commit fixes the warning message from warn_ignored_character().

[Test Code]

  ----(Kconfig begin)----
  /
  -----(Kconfig end)-----

[Output]

  Before the fix:

  &lt;none&gt;:0:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/'

  After the fix:

  Kconfig:1:warning: ignoring unsupported character '/'

[ Upstream commit 5b1374b3b3c2fc4f63a398adfa446fb8eff791a4 ]

Only the E_NOT operand and not the E_NOT node itself was freed, due to
accidentally returning too early in expr_free(). Outline of leak:

	switch (e-&gt;type) {
	...
	case E_NOT:
		expr_free(e-&gt;left.expr);
		return;
	...
	}
	*Never reached, 'e' leaked*
	free(e);

Fix by changing the 'return' to a 'break'.

Summary from Valgrind on 'menuconfig' (ARCH=x86) before the fix:

	LEAK SUMMARY:
	   definitely lost: 44,448 bytes in 1,852 blocks
	   ...

Summary after the fix:

	LEAK SUMMARY:

[ Upstream commit ae7440ef0c8013d68c00dad6900e7cce5311bb1c ]

expr_trans_compare() always allocates and returns a new expression,
giving the following leak outline:

	...
	*Allocate*
	basedep = expr_trans_compare(basedep, E_UNEQUAL, &amp;symbol_no);
	...
	for (menu = parent-&gt;next; menu; menu = menu-&gt;next) {
		...
		*Copy*
		dep2 = expr_copy(basedep);
		...
		*Free copy*
		expr_free(dep2);
	}
	*basedep lost!*

Fix by freeing 'basedep' after the loop.

[ Upstream commit 0724a7c32a54e3e50d28e19e30c59014f61d4e2c ]

If a 'mainmenu' entry appeared in the Kconfig files, two things would
leak:

	- The 'struct property' allocated for the default "Linux Kernel
	  Configuration" prompt.

	- The string for the T_WORD/T_WORD_QUOTE prompt after the
	  T_MAINMENU token, allocated on the heap in zconf.l.

To fix it, introduce a new 'no_mainmenu_stmt' nonterminal that matches
if there's no 'mainmenu' and adds the default prompt. That means the
prompt only gets allocated once regardless of whether there's a
'mainmenu' statement or not, and managing it becomes simple.

	   definitely lost: 344,568 bytes in 14,352 blocks

commit 79e51b5c2deea542b3bb8c66e0d502230b017dde upstream.

Currently it is impossible to edit the value of a config symbol with a
prompt longer than (terminal width - 2) characters.  dialog_inputbox()
calculates a negative x-offset for the input window and newwin() fails
as this is invalid.  It also doesn't check for this failure, so it
busy-loops calling wgetch(NULL) which immediately returns -1.

The additions in the offset calculations also don't match the intended
size of the window.

Limit the window size and calculate the offset similarly to
show_scroll_win().

Some people are able to trigger a race where autoksyms.h is used before
its empty version is even created.  Let's create it at the same time as
the directory holding it is created.

Some people are able to trigger a race where autoksyms.h is used before
its empty version is even created.  Let's create it at the same time as
the directory holding it is created.

Pull kconfig update from Michal Marek:

 - fix for behavior of tristate choice items and fix for documentation
   of existing kconfig behavior [Dirk Gouders]

 - more helpful "unexpected data" kconfig warning [Paul Bolle]

* 'kconfig' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  kconfig/symbol.c: handle choice_values that depend on 'm' symbols
  kconfig-language: elaborate on the type of a choice
  kconfig-language: fix comment on dependency-generated menu structures.
  kconfig: add unexpected data itself to warning

If choices consist of choice_values of type tristate that depend on
symbols set to 'm', those choice_values are not set to 'n' if the
choice is changed from 'm' to 'y' (in which case only one active
choice_value is allowed). Those values are also written to the config
file causing modules to be built when they should not.

The following config can be used to reproduce and examine the problem;
with the frontend of your choice set "Choice 0" and "Choice 1" to 'm',
then set "Tristate Choice" to 'y' and save the configuration:

config modules
	boolean modules
	default y
	option modules

config dependency
	tristate "Dependency"
	default m

choice
	prompt "Tristate Choice"
	default choice0

config choice0
	tristate "Choice 0"

config choice1
	tristate "Choice 1"
	depends on dependency

endchoice

This patch sets tristate choice_values' visibility that depend on
symbols set to 'm' to 'n' if the corresponding choice is set to 'y'.

This makes them disappear from the choice list and will also cause the
choice_values' value set to 'n' in sym_calc_value() and as a result
they are written as "not set" to the resulting .config file.
