Commit fbe98bb9ed3d ("kconfig: Fix defconfig when one choice menu selects options that another choice menu depends on") fixed defconfig when two choices interact (i.e. calculating the visibility of a choice requires to calculate another choice). The test code in that commit log was based on the real world example, and complicated. So, I shrunk it down to the following: defconfig.choice: ---8<--- CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y ---8<--- ---8<--- config MODULES def_bool y option modules choice prompt "Choice" config CHOICE_VAL0 tristate "Choice 0" config CHOICE_VAL1 tristate "Choice 1" endchoice choice prompt "Another choice" depends on CHOICE_VAL0 config DUMMY bool "dummy" endchoice ---8<--- Prior to commit fbe98bb9ed3d, $ scripts/kconfig/conf --defconfig=defconfig.choice Kconfig.choice resulted in: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=m # CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set CONFIG_DUMMY=y where the expected result would be: CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL0=y # CONFIG_CHOICE_VAL1 is not set CONFIG_DUMMY=y Roughly, this weird behavior happened like this: Symbols are calculated a couple of times. First, all symbols are calculated in conf_read(). The first 'choice' is evaluated to 'y' due to the SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag, but sym_calc_choice() clears it unless all of its choice values are explicitly set by the user. conf_set_all_new_symbols() clears all SYMBOL_VALID flags. Then, only choices are calculated. Here, the SYMBOL_DEF_USER for the first choice has been forgotten, so it is evaluated to 'm'. set_all_choice_values() sets SYMBOL_DEF_USER again to choice symbols. When calculating the second choice, due to 'depends on CHOICE_VAL0', it triggers the calculation of CHOICE_VAL0. As a result, SYMBOL_VALID is set for CHOICE_VAL0. Symbols except choices get the final chance of re-calculation in conf_write(). In a normal case, CHOICE_VAL0 would be re-calculated, then the first choice would be indirectly re-calculated with the SYMBOL_DEF_USER which has been recalled by set_all_choice_values(), which would be evaluated to 'y'. But, in this case, CHOICE_VAL0 has already been marked as SYMBOL_VALID, so this re-calculation does not happen. Then, =m from the conf_set_all_new_symbols() phase is written out to the .config file. Add a unit test for this naive case.
