Re: [PATCH v7 00/11] kconfig: Add support for conflict resolution

Quick follow-up. On our end, our SAT-solver implementations can be easily adapted to accommodate your future toolchain selection refactorings. Also, could you share with us the timelines for your refactorings so we can plan and deliver the adjusted SAT-solver patches. Best Regards, Jude Gyimah

Thanks for this, but I have no plans to merge the SAT solver.

The reason is that my future plan is to move toolchain selection
to the Kconfig stage instead of specifying it statically from the command line.
That makes sense.

This approach was suggested by Linus [1], and to achieve that,
the shell evaluation must be dynamically re-evaluated [2].
Sure.

The SAT solver would likely conflict with this plan. At least due to the
significant amount of additional code, which would be an obstacle.
I can't see how the toolchain selection, if set on Kconfig can't be
leveraged later to enable / disable the SAT solver, however I can
see the amount of code shuffling incurred to be an extra hurdle to
address and a preference to leave that for later.

In other words, I susepct it is still possible to evaluate to
add support for the SAT solver post toolchain kconfig integration.

Thoughts?

It depends on how the dynamic shell evaluation is implemented.
This is not limited to bool/tristate, but SAT solver only works for
those two types.
