This package has dubious licensing conditions (not even documented in
the .mk file), and is a bootloader for very old platforms. The
defconfigs making use of it have been removed in Buildroot in 2014, in
commit c6a410964b ("configs: remove
lpc32xx defconfigs"), so let's get rid of the package.

This script checks for inconsistencies on symbols declared in Config.in
and used in .mk files.
Currently it checks only symbols following the pattern BR2_\w+ .
The script first gets the list of all files in the repository (using git
ls-files like 'make check-flake8' already do).
Then it parses all relevant files, searching for symbol definitions and
usages, and add entries into a database.
At the end, the database is searched for inconsistencies:
- symbol that is part of "choice" and is referenced with "select";
- legacy symbol being referenced in packages;
- legacy symbol being redefined in packages;
- symbol referenced but not defined;
- symbol defined but not referenced;
- legacy symbol that has a Note stating it is referenced by a package
(for legacy handling) but is referenced in the package without a
comment "# legacy";
- legacy symbol that has a Note stating it is referenced by a package
but it is not actually referenced.
There is also a debug parameter --search that dumps any filename or
symbol entries from the database that matches a regexp.
Sample usages:
$ utils/check-symbols
$ utils/docker-run utils/check-symbols
$ utils/check-symbols --search 'GETTEXT\b|\/openssl'
At same time the script is created:
- add unit tests for it, they can be run using:
utils/docker-run python3 -m pytest -v utils/checksymbolslib/
- add two more GitLab CI jobs: check-symbols (to check current tree
using the script) and check-check-symbols (to check the script against
its unit tests)
