[PATCH v2 16/21] kcov: imply GCC_PLUGINS and GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV instead of select'ing them

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt notes, 'select' should be
used with care - it forces a lower limit of another symbol, ignoring
the dependency.  In this case, KCOV can select GCC_PLUGINS even if
'depends on HAVE_GCC_PLUGINS' is unmet.

'imply' is modest enough to observe the dependency, and this makes
sense.  If you enable KCOV, you will probably want to enable
GCC_PLUGIN_SANCOV, but it should not break the dependency.

I also remove unneeded code, I just happened to notice.

  - Drop depends on GCC_VERSION
