Utilize the common options and provide the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.Why do you need to duplicate the ARCH_SELECTS_ entries in each architecture ? Why not define them in arch/Kconfig then select if from each architecture ? For instance here for x86 for ARCH_SELECTS_KEXEC_FILE all you'll have to do is: select ARCH_SELECTS_KEXEC_FILE if KEXEC_FILE select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA && KEXEC_FILE Christophe
Hi Christophe, thanks for looking at this!The ARCH_SELECTS_ is where the "customization" is performed for that option. The customization is putting in place the differences that the arch had from the common option.
For example, with ARCH_SELECTS_KEXEC_FILE, here are all the uses: x86: select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA arm64: select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA powerpc: select KEXEC_ELF select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA riscv: select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA select KEXEC_ELFAnd there are archs (parisc, riscv, s390) that support KEXEC_FILE that do not need ARCH_SELECTS_KEXEC_FILE.
So there isn't a clear path for optimizing the IMA statement, in this example, that I'm aware of. But perhaps I don't quite understand the technique you are suggesting, either... eric
