From the last comment, arch makefile will override vmlinux. It seems

we use another word instead of "overridden"?

Quite a few Kconfig symbols contain lowercase letters.  The current
checkkconfigsymbols.sh code only contains A-Z in the regexp it uses to
find config symbols in source code, so it comes up with the wrong symbol
to look for in Kconfig files and then generates false positives when it
doesn't find that wrong symbol.  For example checking drivers/net
generates a false positive for MAC89 because the the actual config
option is MAC89x0.

Fix this by also adding a-z to the regexp.

I'm looking Makefile in the -mm branch (dated 2010-04-28-16-53) and
seeing what looks like a bug in the checking of scm-identifier.  The

There's a button in gconfig to "Show all options", but I think
normally we are not interested in those configs which have no
prompt and thus can't be changed, so here I add a new button to
show hidden options which have prompts.

Usage:
  Press <Z> to show all config symbols which have prompts.

Quote Tim Bird:

I myself found this useful too. For example, I need to test
ftrace/tracing and want to be sure all the tracing features are
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",
but that's a bit too much, and I think normally what we are not
interested in those configs which have no prompt thus can't be
changed by users.

Exmaple:

      --- Tracers
      -*-   Kernel Function Tracer
      - -     Kernel Function Graph Tracer
      [*]   Interrupts-off Latency Tracer
      - -   Preemption-off Latency Tracer
      [*]   Sysprof Tracer

Here you can see 2 tracers are not selectable, and then can find
out how to make them selectable.

A symbol's value won't be recalc-ed until we save config file or
enter the menu where the symbol sits.

So If I enable OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, and search FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER:

  Symbol: FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER [=y]
  Prompt: Kernel Function Graph Tracer
    Defined at kernel/trace/Kconfig:140
    Depends on: ... [=y] && (!X86_32 [=y] || !CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE [=y])
    ...

From the dependency it should result in FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=n,
but it still shows FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y.

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

Given that absolute paths can be forced by make O=. cscope, change the
default back to relative paths.
