Subject: [PATCH 000/193] remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

This config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is
almost always enabled by default (especially in distro builds). As agreed
during the Linux kernel summit, it should be removed.

As such, this is the patch series for removing CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL,
with the hopes of all the various maintainers pulling these changes into
their trees. I'm carrying the first patch (that makes CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
"default y") in my linux-next tree, so builds there will see the impact
immediately.

Some patches remove "(EXPERIMENTAL)" from Kconfig titles when there was
no "depends on EXPERIMENTAL". I've removed the cases of these where I
know the maintainer intended it that way. I've left the others in case a
"depends on EXPERIMENTAL" had been removed in the past and it had been
accidentally forgotten in the title. If the title is correct as-is,
just let me know, and I'll drop the patch from my series.

Here is an outline of how to handle things going forward, from the first
patch's commit message, based on earlier lkml discussions:

For items that really are experimental, maintainers should use "default
n", optionally include "(EXPERIMENTAL)" in the title, and add language to
the help text indicating why the item should be considered experimental.

For items that are dangerously experimental, the maintainer is encouraged
to follow the above title recommendation, add stronger language to the
help text, and optionally use (depending on the extent of the danger,
from least to most dangerous): printk(), add_taint(TAINT_WARN),
add_taint(TAINT_CRAP), WARN_ON(1), and CONFIG_BROKEN.

Thanks,

-Kees

This config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is
almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel
summit, it is being removed. This will discourage future addition of
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL while it is being phased out.

Subject: [PATCH 001/193] make CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL invisible and default

This config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is
almost always enabled by default (especially in distro builds). As agreed
during the Linux kernel summit, it should be removed. As a first step,
remove it from being listed, and default it to on. Once it has been
removed from all subsystem Kconfigs, it will be dropped entirely.

For items that really are experimental, maintainers should use "default
n", optionally include "(EXPERIMENTAL)" in the title, and add language to
the help text indicating why the item should be considered experimental.

For items that are dangerously experimental, the maintainer is encouraged
to follow the above title recommendation, add stronger language to the
help text, and optionally use (depending on the extent of the danger,
from least to most dangerous): printk(), add_taint(TAINT_WARN),
add_taint(TAINT_CRAP), WARN_ON(1), and CONFIG_BROKEN.

- Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network
- drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state
- of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of
- testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually
- known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is
- currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage
- uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to
- avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active
- testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it
- may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work
- in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar
- with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers
- (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents
- <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>,
- <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and
- <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source).
-
- This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are
- drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are
- scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release.
-
- Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that
- falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires
- using these features, you should probably say N here, which will
- cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If
- you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or
- drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase.

Maybe this isn't important, but:

I think the commit message should be changed -- this part of the series
doesn't remove EXPERIMENTAL, it removes the dependency on it from its
current users. The way the commit message is worded makes it sound like
the patch is going to remove MMC_CLKGATE, which of course it doesn't.

Ditto the subject line, could be ": remove use of CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL".

Regardless, for this and the subsequent [071] patch:

I'll update the commit and subjects for the series; good idea.

Either way is fine; I'm already carrying a bunch, so I'm happy to add

Seem reasonable. Should you suggest how they can mark things
experimental? I assume (EXPERIMENTAL) in the title is now the right
way?

Good point. This seems to trigger much deeper changes. All of these
and their logic go away:

arch/arm/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/arm/mach-clps711x/Kconfig: select ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/arm64/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/ia64/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/parisc/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/powerpc/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/s390/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/sh/mm/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/sparc/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL
arch/x86/Kconfig:config ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL

Along with mm/Kconfig:config SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL and associated logic.

How about we handle this as a phase 2, and for phase 1, I just drop
EXPERIMENTAL?

Yeah, sounds like a good idea. If anybody complains because they were
allowed to select their memory model because CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y and not
because ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL, then we should be able to fix the option
for their arch.

Yeah, there's an escalation that seemed to get agreed on:

I could add a hint to read the above lkml post?

I have a patch queued up for -rc which removes a number of these, but
specifically leaves some which do cause people problems. So I'd
appreciate it if we kept some of these (EXPERIMENTAL) tags even if we
do drop the dependency.

Okay, I'll switch it around to only drop the "depends on ..."

I would much prefer that they are merged via each maintainers tree as that
will eliminate the inevitable conflicts (for which I will bear the
pain :-().

These are not big hard patches and have no dependencies on anything, so
what is the problem?

I am not really involved in this, other than the fact that I made some
small changes to this documentation file. Thus, I recuse myself from
having to review/make a decision on this patch! :-)

Thanks.

I will defer this to the senior GPIO subsystem maintainer who knows the
ways of the kernel summit, so I expect Grant to merge this patch if he
likes it.

In these cases, should we keep the '(EXPERIMENTAL)' text since it is just
a hint to anyone running make menuconfig? I think removing the 'depends on
EXPERIMENTAL's is fine, but cases we should leave it (or replace it) as
a textual hint, except in cases where we're sure that is no longer the case.

I don't have a problem with the removal of the CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL dependency, but I would like to retain the (EXPERIMENTAL) tag in the option string. We can then remove those tags when the support for those devices stabilize.

I covered this in the 000 intro email (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/23/580):

Some patches remove "(EXPERIMENTAL)" from Kconfig titles when there was
no "depends on EXPERIMENTAL". I've removed the cases of these where I
know the maintainer intended it that way. I've left the others in case a
"depends on EXPERIMENTAL" had been removed in the past and it had been
accidentally forgotten in the title. If the title is correct as-is,
just let me know, and I'll drop the patch from my series.


So, if some of these need to be adjusted, I'm fine with that. I opted
for aggressive removal in this first series.

intro email is an appreciated courtesy, but should not take the place of
info in the individual patch changelogs, especially as the intro emails
won't go into git history.

One would hope so given..

config KVM
tristate "Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) support"
...
select TASKSTATS

I suspect every distro kernel out there supports TASKSTATS as a result of that.

Has anybody tested what happens if you're doing a git bisect that ends up crossing
back and forth across the commit for this? I've been burned before when stuff
evaporates out of my .config during a bisect when an option grows/loses a 'depends
on' clause.

I haven't tried a bisect, but I've been bouncing around between trees

While there are cases where it is largely superfluous, we also have
plenty of cases in here that are genuinely experimental features and
generally shouldn't be enabled unless someone is prepared for some
hacking. We can of course replace this with an arch-specific option if
needed, but I disagree with suddenly making experimental features
suddenly appear to be anything other than what they are.

Yeah, things that really are experimental need something, but it
hasn't been meaningful to put them behind CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL. Here's
the text from the first patch, which details possible approaches:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/23/878
This config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is
almost always enabled by default (especially in distro builds). As agreed
during the Linux kernel summit, it should be removed. As a first step,
remove it from being listed, and default it to on. Once it has been
removed from all subsystem Kconfigs, it will be dropped entirely.

For items that really are experimental, maintainers should use "default
n", optionally include "(EXPERIMENTAL)" in the title, and add language to
the help text indicating why the item should be considered experimental.

For items that are dangerously experimental, the maintainer is encouraged
to follow the above title recommendation, add stronger language to the
help text, and optionally use (depending on the extent of the danger,
from least to most dangerous): printk(), add_taint(TAINT_WARN),
add_taint(TAINT_CRAP), WARN_ON(1), and CONFIG_BROKEN.

Stephen Rothwell has mentioned he'd prefer maintainers take these
patches into their trees, but I'm happy to carry them in mine if you
want to avoid the hassle. I'm doing this for several areas already.
It's up to you, but just let me know so I can either drop it from my
tree or move it to my linux-next tree. :)

Stephen Rothwell asked that subsystem maintainers carry the patches to
make it easier to do merges, but in the cases where that's not
possible or a maintainer would like me to carry it, I've been putting
them into my linux-next tree. It's up to you; if you take it into your
tree, I'll drop it from mine. Just let me know either way. :)
