Fact is, choices are properly randomised, unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is passed. So, if you currently rely on choices not being randomised, it means you're using KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG [*] so you can set CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM in the defconfig you use. Which should not change your workflow by much, I believe. [*] If not, then we have another issue. Can you confirm you're already using KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG? If not, can you explain how you handle CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM always being set? Regards, Yann E.
