[ Upstream commit a409fc1463d664002ea9bf700ae4674df03de111 ]

The string allocated in sym_warn_unmet_dep() is never freed, leading
to a memory leak when an unmet dependency is detected.

[ Upstream commit 4d137ab0107ead0f2590fc0314e627431e3b9e3f ]

Currently, when an input line starts with '#', (line + 2) is passed to
memcmp() without checking line[1].

It means that line[1] can be any arbitrary character. For example,
"#KCONFIG_FOO is not set" is accepted as valid input, functioning the
same as "# CONFIG_FOO is not set".

More importantly, this can potentially lead to a buffer overrun if
line[1] == '\0'. It occurs if the input only contains '#', as
(line + 2) points to an uninitialized buffer.

Check line[1], and skip the line if it is not a space.

<title>kconfig: fix file name in warnings when loading KCONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST</title>

[ Upstream commit a314f52a0210730d0d556de76bb7388e76d4597d ]

Most 'make *config' commands use .config as the base configuration file.

When .config does not exist, Kconfig tries to load a file listed in
KCONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST instead.

However, since commit b75b0a819af9 ("kconfig: change defconfig_list
option to environment variable"), warning messages have displayed an
incorrect file name in such cases.

Below is a demonstration using Debian Trixie. While loading
/boot/config-6.12.9-amd64, the warning messages incorrectly show .config
as the file name.

With this commit, the correct file name is displayed in warnings.

[Before]

  $ rm -f .config
  $ make config
  #
  # using defaults found in /boot/config-6.12.9-amd64
  #
  .config:6804:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for FB_BACKLIGHT
  .config:9895:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for ANDROID_BINDER_IPC

[After]

  $ rm -f .config
  $ make config
  #
  # using defaults found in /boot/config-6.12.9-amd64
  #

[ Upstream commit 33330bcf031818e60a816db0cfd3add9eecc3b28 ]

When merging files without trailing newlines at the end of the file, two
config fragments end up at the same row if file1.config doens't have a
trailing newline at the end of the file.

file1.config "CONFIG_1=y"
file2.config "CONFIG_2=y"
./scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh -m .config file1.config file2.config

This will generate a .config looking like this.

<title>kconfig: remove wrong expr_trans_bool()</title>

[ Upstream commit 77a92660d8fe8d29503fae768d9f5eb529c88b36 ]

expr_trans_bool() performs an incorrect transformation.

[Test Code]

    config MODULES
            def_bool y
            modules

    config A
            def_bool y
            select C if B != n

    config B
            def_tristate m

    config C
            tristate

[Result]

    CONFIG_MODULES=y
    CONFIG_A=y
    CONFIG_B=m
    CONFIG_C=m

This output is incorrect because CONFIG_C=y is expected.

Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst clearly explains the function
of the '!=' operator:

    If the values of both symbols are equal, it returns 'n',
    otherwise 'y'.

Therefore, the statement:

    select C if B != n

should be equivalent to:

    select C if y

Or, more simply:

    select C

Hence, the symbol C should be selected by the value of A, which is 'y'.

However, expr_trans_bool() wrongly transforms it to:

    select C if B

Therefore, the symbol C is selected by (A &amp;&amp; B), which is 'm'.

The comment block of expr_trans_bool() correctly explains its intention:

  * bool FOO!=n =&gt; FOO
    ^^^^

If FOO is bool, FOO!=n can be simplified into FOO. This is correct.

However, the actual code performs this transformation when FOO is
tristate:

    if (e-&gt;left.sym-&gt;type == S_TRISTATE) {
                             ^^^^^^^^^^

While it can be fixed to S_BOOLEAN, there is no point in doing so
because expr_tranform() already transforms FOO!=n to FOO when FOO is
bool. (see the "case E_UNEQUAL" part)

expr_trans_bool() is wrong and unnecessary.

[ Upstream commit 46edf4372e336ef3a61c3126e49518099d2e2e6d ]

Currently, the initial state of the "Save" button is always active.

If none of the CONFIG options are changed while loading the .config
file, the "Save" button should be greyed out.

This can be fixed by calling conf_read() after widget initialization.
