<title>kconfig: do not reparent the menu inside a choice block</title>

<id>7e3465f63a0a70641ed8e49f9d40ee613f7da586</id>
<content type='text'>
The boolean 'choice' is used to list exclusively selected config
options.

You must not add a dependency between choice members, because such a
dependency would create an invisible entry.

In the following test case, it is impossible to choose 'C'.

[Test Case 1]

  choice
          prompt "Choose one, but how to choose C?"

  config A
          bool "A"

  config B
          bool "B"

  config C
          bool "C"
          depends on A

  endchoice

Hence, Kconfig shows the following error message:

  Kconfig:1:error: recursive dependency detected!
  Kconfig:1:      choice &lt;choice&gt; contains symbol C
  Kconfig:10:     symbol C is part of choice A
  Kconfig:4:      symbol A is part of choice &lt;choice&gt;
  For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst
  subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"

However, Kconfig does not report anything for the following similar code:

[Test Case 2]

  choice
         prompt "Choose one, but how to choose B?"

  config A
          bool "A"

  config B
          bool "B"
          depends on A

  config C
          bool "C"

  endchoice

This is because menu_finalize() reparents the menu tree when an entry
depends on the preceding one.

With reparenting, the menu tree:

  choice
   |- A
   |- B
   \- C

... will be transformed into the following structure:

  choice
   |- A
   |  \- B
   \- C

Consequently, Kconfig considers only 'A' and 'C' as choice members.
This behavior is awkward. The second test case should be an error too.

This commit stops reparenting inside a choice.

<title>kconfig: tests: test dependency after shuffling choices</title>

Commit c8fb7d7e48d1 ("kconfig: fix broken dependency in randconfig-
generated .config") fixed the issue, but I did not add a test case.

This commit adds a test case that emulates the reported situation.
The test would fail without c8fb7d7e48d1.

To handle the choice "choose X", FOO must be calculated beforehand.
FOO depends on A, which is a member of another choice "choose A or B".
Kconfig _temporarily_ assumes the value of A to proceed. The choice
"choose A or B" will be shuffled later, but the result may or may not
meet "FOO depends on A". Kconfig should invalidate the symbol values
and recompute them.

In the real example for ARCH=arm64, the choice "Instrumentation type"
needs the value of CPU_BIG_ENDIAN. The choice "Endianness" will be
shuffled later.

<title>kconfig: tests: add a test for randconfig with dependent choices</title>
<updated>2024-03-20T17:39:55+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=47ad16894c4a25e6cb342666f0fa203701a88476'/>
<id>47ad16894c4a25e6cb342666f0fa203701a88476</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 3b9a19e08960 ("kconfig: loop as long as we changed some
symbols in randconfig"), conf_set_all_new_symbols() is repeated until
there is no more choice left to be shuffled. The motivation was to
shuffle a choice nested in another choice.

Although commit 09d5873e4d1f ("kconfig: allow only 'config', 'comment',
and 'if' inside 'choice'") disallowed the nested choice structure,
we must still keep 3b9a19e08960 because there are still cases where
conf_set_all_new_symbols() must iterate.

scripts/kconfig/tests/choice_randomize/Kconfig is the test case.
The second choice depends on 'B', which is the member of the first
choice.

With 3b9a19e08960 reverted, we would never get the pattern specified by
scripts/kconfig/tests/choice_randomize/expected_config2.

A real example can be found in lib/Kconfig.debug. Without 3b9a19e08960,
the randconfig would not shuffle the "Compressed Debug information"
choice, which depends on DEBUG_INFO, which is derived from another
choice "Debug information".

My goal is to refactor Kconfig so that randconfig will work more
simply, without using the loop.

For now, let's add a test case to ensure all dependent choices are
shuffled, as it is a somewhat tricky case for the current Kconfig.

When the condition 'sym == NULL' is met, the code will reach the
'next_menu' label regardless of the return value from menu_is_visible().

menu_is_visible() calculates some symbol values as a side-effect, for
instance by calling expr_calc_value(menu-&gt;visibility), but all the
symbol values will be calculated eventually.
