Package: kconfigeditor2 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Dear Maintainer,
Use of kconfigeditor2/process.py fails to generate output target directories for new external CONFIG_OUTPUT path. Steps to reproduce: # apt build-dep linux # apt install '^linux-support-.*$' # git -C $HOME/source clone --depth 1 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git linux.git # git -C $HOME/source clone --depth 1 https://salsa.debian.org/kernel- team/kernel-team.git debian-kernel-team.git # git -C $HOME/source clone --depth 1 https://salsa.debian.org/kernel- team/linux.git debian-linux.git # $HOME/source/debian-kernel-team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py -c $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config -s $HOME/source/linux.git $HOME/source/debian- linux.git # $HOME/source/debian-kernel-team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py -c $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config -s $HOME/source/linux.git $HOME/source/debian- linux.git ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/user/source/debian-kernel- team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py", line 80, in <module> Main(package, source, config_output) ~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/user/source/debian-kernel- team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py", line 42, in __init__ f = open(filename_tmp, 'w') FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/user/build/debian-kernel-config/config.tmp' ``` The above error may be expected, however creating that directory does not get us to where we need to be: mkdir $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config # $HOME/source/debian-kernel-team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py -c $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config -s $HOME/source/linux.git $HOME/source/debian- linux.git ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/user/source/debian-kernel- team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py", line 80, in <module> Main(package, source, config_output) ~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/user/source/debian-kernel- team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py", line 42, in __init__ f = open(filename_tmp, 'w') FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/user/build/debian-kernel-config/alpha/config.tmp' ``` Additional action of creating the expected directories leads to an approximately successful run: # find $HOME/source/debian-linux.git/debian/config -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -iname 'config*' -type f -exec sh -c "cd $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config ; dirname {} | xargs -n 1 basename | xargs mkdir" \; # $HOME/source/debian-kernel-team.git/utils/kconfigeditor2/process.py -c $HOME/build/debian-kernel-config -s $HOME/source/linux.git $HOME/source/debian- linux.git ``` /home/user/source/debian-linux.git/debian/config/config: Unknown setting CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER=y /home/user/source/debian-linux.git/debian/config/config: Unknown setting # CONFIG_CRYPTO_MANAGER_DISABLE_TESTS is not set ``` ...snip... ``` /home/user/source/debian-linux.git/debian/config/amd64/config: Unknown setting CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256_SSSE3=m /home/user/source/debian-linux.git/debian/config/amd64/config: Unknown setting CONFIG_X86_X32_DISABLED=y ``` There are of course missing information in the output as this is not the exact described workflow from documentation. However it is quick-and-dirty way to get a useful kernel config. Creating the target directories by default may not be intended or would mask some error. Should kconfigeditor2/process.py have an option (or by default) populate target directories for this usage? -- System Information: Debian Release: 13.0 APT prefers testing-security APT policy: (500, 'testing-security'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.12.31-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
