Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

This option allows for specifying the directory to use as the location for
kernel source files. This option was ported from NetBSD.

The impact of this bug is that you cannot build a kernel if both of the
following are true:
1) The kernel config file is in a non-default location
2) The kernel config file uses the "include" statement from config(5).
usr.sbin/config/main.c
usr.sbin/config/config.8
usr.sbin/config/config.h
usr.sbin/config/lang.l
Added a "-I path" option to config(8). By analogy to cc(1), it adds
an extra path in which the "include" statement will search for
files.
Makefile.inc1
Pass "-I ${KERNCONFDIR}" to config(8).

The index() and rindex() functions were marked LEGACY in the 2001
revision of POSIX and were subsequently removed from the 2008 revision.
The strchr() and strrchr() functions are part of the C standard.
This makes the source code a lot more consistent, as most of these C
files also call into other str*() routines. In fact, about a dozen
already perform strchr() calls.
- Use strlen(dp->d_name) instead of the unportable dp->d_namlen. Rename
i to len to make it slightly more descriptive and prevent negative
indexing of the array.
- Replace index() by strchr().
This supposedly fixes compilation on GNU systems.

support for creating these symlinks was added to sys/conf/kern.post.mk in

- Passing -m to config will now print the MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH
given in the passed kernel configuration file and then exit.
- If an option is defined in options.MACHINE with the same name as the
architecture of the kernel being configured, that option will be
considered set. This allows conditional compilation based on CPU
architecture.
Config version is now 600010.

we've parsed the config file. Makefile generation is too late if
we've introduce changes to the syntax of the metafiles to warn about
version skew, since we have to try to parse them and we get an parse
error that's rather baffling to the user rather than a 'your config is
too old, upgrade' which we should get.
We have to defer doing it until after we've read the user's config
file because we define machinename there. The version required to
compile the kernel is encoded in Makefile.machinename. There's no
real reason for this to be the case, but changing it now would
introduce some logistical issues that I'd rather avoid for the moment.
I intend to revisit this if we're still using config in FreeBSD 10.
This also means that we cannot introduce any config metafile changes
that result in a syntax error or other error for the user until 9.0 is
released. Otherwise, we break the upgrade path, or at least reduce
the usefulness of the error messages we generate.
# This implies that the config file option mapping will need to be redone.

allow those folks that now have atmel hardware (thanks Andre) a chance
to try it out w/o my help. Since dunstan@ is asleep right now, risk
stepping on his toes a little by going ahead and committing this

Remember about tricky cases, where options contain unfriendly characters,

This change will let us to have full configuration of a running kernel
available in sysctl:
sysctl -b kern.conftxt
The same configuration is also contained within the kernel image. It can be
obtained with:
config -x <kernelfile>
Current functionality lets you to quickly recover kernel configuration, by
simply redirecting output from commands presented above and starting kernel
build procedure. "include" statements are also honored, which means options
and devices from included files are also included.
Please note that comments from configuration files are not preserved by
default. In order to preserve them, you can use -C flag for config(8). This
will bring configuration file and included files literally; however,
redirection to a file no longer works directly.

much later than before, and it is now after we do a mkdir ../compile/FILE.
As a result, if you do 'config DOESNOTEXIST', it now creates the directory
../config/DOESNOTEXIST. It did not do that before. If DEFAULTS does not
exist, it still fails early before any permanent changes.
This shameless hack restores the old behavior of ensuring the config file
actually exists before mkdiring its counterpart directory.
Now I can rmdir ../compile/D and it will stay dead, after my fingers keep
sabotaging me with 'config D<tab><enter>'. (Some of my kernel names
started with D, which used to be 1-character unique and my fingers knew
this very well...)
directory before the specified config file. This is implemented by
opening DEFAULTS as stdin if it exists, and if so resetting stdin to the
actual config file when DEFAULTS is fully parsed via yywrap(). In short,
this lets us create DEFAULTS kernel configs in /sys/<arch>/conf that can
enable certain options or devices by default and allow users to disable
them via 'nooptions' or 'nodevice' rather than having to create kludge
NO_FOO options.

to be included into this one. This works the same way as #include
does in C; as far as the user is concerned, the included file is
inlined into the current one.
Since config(8) is no longer limited to working on one user-supplied
file, printing just a line number in an error message is not
sufficient. The new global variable yyfile represents the file
currently being parsed, and must be printed as well.
