Subject: [kconfig][RFC] getting things like CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER without bothering with selects
Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2022 23:57:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YvLmPl8sgR2q3WgE@ZenIV> (raw)

	Sometimes we have situations when we want linux/foo.h
include asm/bar.h if the latter exists; one example is
includes of asm/syscall_wrapper.h.  Right now there are two
ways to do that:
	1) ARCH_HAS_BAR_H, explicitly selected by architectures
that have asm/bar.h and include guarded by #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_BAR_H
	2) include/asm-default/bar.h, either empty or with
something like #define __ARCH_HAS_NO_BAR_H, with mandatory-y += bar.h
in include/asm-generic/Kbuild and unconditional includes of asm/bar.h,
possibly followed by #ifdef __ARCH_HAS_NO_BAR_H ... #endif

However, kconfig could do (1) without selects - something like
bool ARCH_HAS_BAR_H
	def_bool $(header-exists,bar.h)

Does anybody see problems with the patch below?
