While Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst provides a brief explanation, there are recurring confusions regarding the usage of a prompt followed by 'if <expr>'. This conditional controls _only_ the prompt. A typical usage is as follows: menuconfig BLOCK bool "Enable the block layer" if EXPERT default y When EXPERT=n, the prompt is hidden, but this config entry is still active, and BLOCK is set to its default value 'y'. This is reasonable because you are likely want to enable the block device support. When EXPERT=y, the prompt is shown, allowing you to toggle BLOCK. Please note that it is different from 'depends on EXPERT', which would enable and disable the entire config entry. However, this conditional prompt has never worked in a choice block. The following two work in the same way: when EXPERT is disabled, the choice block is entirely disabled. [Test Code 1] choice prompt "choose" if EXPERT config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice [Test Code 2] choice prompt "choose" depends on EXPERT config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice I believe the first case should hide only the prompt, producing the default: CONFIG_A=y # CONFIG_B is not set The next commit will change (fix) the behavior of the conditional prompt in choice blocks. I see several choice blocks wrongly using a conditional prompt, where 'depends on' makes more sense. To preserve the current behavior, this commit converts such misuses. I did not touch the following entry in arch/x86/Kconfig: choice prompt "Memory split" if EXPERT default VMSPLIT_3G This is truly the correct use of the conditional prompt; when EXPERT=n, this choice block should silently select the reasonable VMSPLIT_3G, although the resulting PAGE_OFFSET will not be affected anyway. Presumably, the one in fs/jffs2/Kconfig is also correct, but I converted it to 'depends on' to avoid any potential behavioral change. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

JFFS2 is the second generation of the Journalling Flash File System
|
|
for use on diskless embedded devices. It provides improved wear
|
|
levelling, compression and support for hard links. You cannot use
|
|
this on normal block devices, only on 'MTD' devices.
|
|
|
|
Further information on the design and implementation of JFFS2 is
|
|
available at <http://sources.redhat.com/jffs2/>.

|
|
This controls the amount of debugging messages produced by the JFFS2
|
|
code. Set it to zero for use in production systems. For evaluation,
|
|
testing and debugging, it's advisable to set it to one. This will
|
|
enable a few assertions and will print debugging messages at the
|
|
KERN_DEBUG loglevel, where they won't normally be visible. Level 2
|
|
is unlikely to be useful - it enables extra debugging in certain
|
|
areas which at one point needed debugging, but when the bugs were
|
|
located and fixed, the detailed messages were relegated to level 2.
|
|
|
|
If reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of the
|
|
messages at debug level 1 while the misbehaviour was occurring.

Enabling this option allows you to explicitly choose which

compression modules, if any, are enabled in JFFS2. Removing

compressors can mean you cannot read existing file systems,

write a file system which cannot be read by a standard kernel.

If unsure, you should _definitely_ say 'N'.
