This would makes all ash options indented inside "ash" in menuconfig.
It appears that menuconfig has a limit at tracking multiple dependency
lines like this (it looks like a "diamond problem" but I'm not sure if
it is):
---ASH <----------
/ \ ASH_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
!NOMMU <-*----SH_IS_ASH <----[OR] <--ASH_INTERNAL_GLOB
\ / ASH_RANDOM_SUPPORT
---BASH_IS_ASH <-- [...]
The kconfig-language document [1] states that:
> If a menu entry somehow depends on the previous entry, it can be
> made a submenu of it. First, the previous (parent) symbol must be
> part of the dependency list and then one of these two conditions
> must be true:
> - the child entry must become invisible, if the parent is set to 'n'
[BusyBox ash used to satisfy this, but no longer does]
> - the child entry must only be visible, if the parent is visible
[BusyBox ash configs actually satisfy this, but because of
"diamond" above this might not be easily detected]
So I found out a direct workaround: by making ash options explicitly
depend on !NOMMU, we can tell menuconfig that rule 2 above is satisfied
without any more tracking.
---------------------
/ \
!NOMMU <-*-----ASH <-------- \
\ \ \ ASH_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
*---SH_IS_ASH <---[OR]-[AND] <--ASH_INTERNAL_GLOB
\ / ASH_RANDOM_SUPPORT
--BASH_IS_ASH <- [...]
So all ash options would now be indented under "ash".

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/ Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7 http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap01.html Shell & Utilities It says that any of the standard utilities may be implemented as a regular shell built-in. It gives a list of utilities which are usually implemented that way (and some of them can only be implemented as built-ins, like "alias"): alias bg cd command false fc fg getopts jobs kill newgrp pwd read true umask unalias wait http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html Shell Command Language It says that shell must implement special built-ins. Special built-ins differ from regular ones by the fact that variable assignments done on special builtin are *PRESERVED*. That is, VAR=VAL special_builtin; echo $VAR should print VAL. (Another distinction is that an error in special built-in should abort the shell, but this is not such a critical difference, and moreover, at least bash's "set" does not follow this rule, which is even codified in autoconf configure logic now...) List of special builtins: . file : [argument...] break [n] continue [n] eval [argument...] exec [command [argument...]] exit [n] export name[=word]... export -p readonly name[=word]... readonly -p return [n] set [-abCefhmnuvx] [-o option] [argument...] set [+abCefhmnuvx] [+o option] [argument...] set -- [argument...] set -o set +o shift [n] times trap n [condition...] trap [action condition...] unset [-fv] name... In practice, no one uses this obscure feature - none of these builtins gives any special reasons to play such dirty tricks. However. This section also says that *function invocation* should act similar to special built-in. That is, variable assignments done on function invocation should be preserved after function invocation. This is significant: it is not unthinkable to want to run a function with some variables set to special values. But because of the above, it does not work: variable will "leak" out of the function.
