This is a tool to help identify issues in coreboot's Kconfig structure
and in how the Kconfig symbols are used in the coreboot codebase.
It identifies a number of issues:
- #ifdef used on Kconfig symbol of type bool, hex, or int. These are
always defined.
- #define CONFIG_ in the coreboot code - these should be reserved
for Kconfig symbols.
- Redefinition of Kconfig symbols in the code.
- Use of IS_ENABLED() on non-bool kconfig symbols.
- Use of IS_ENABLED() on values that are not kconfig symbols.
- Attempts to find default values that will not set anything
because of earlier default settings. This needs to be expanded
significantly.
- Kconfig expressions using symbols which are not defined.
- Kconfig symbols that are defined but not used anywhere in the
Kconfig structure or coreboot code.
- Kconfig keywords used incorrectly.
- Whitespace issues
- Kconfig 'source' keyword issues
-- sourcing non-existant directories
-- sourcing Kconfig files multiple times
-- sourcing non-existent files
-- Kconfig files in the codebase that are never sourced
Additionally, it can be used to help debug the Kconfig tree
by putting all the files together into a single file with
their source locations listed.
Run from the coreboot directory:
util/lint/kconfig_lint
