Your mailer ate the archive, it doesn't look that big, could you include them uncompressed? This would also make it easier to quote them if needed.
Kconfig.if: i prefer this version the most, though it simply does not work, i do not understand why and perhaps this is due to a bug in kconfig or badly explained in Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt or just my stupidness. my arch is PPC_PMAC. when using menuconfig/gconfig, i get the correct prompt, but the help text is from the last config PM defined in this file. so in this case, it is from X86.
This is (currently) correct, kconfig only stores the last the help entry. I want to change this at some point, but I haven't decided about the syntax yet, e.g. which help text should be used for entries, which don't have their own help.
Kconfig.menu: this is basically the same as Kconfig.if, but the docs say that "The dependency expression <expr> is appended to all enclosed menu entries". that made me suspicious and thus, the "if" clauses include menus here.
I can only guess here, but from a dependency point these two are identical:
menu "..."
depends on <expr>
...
endmenuif <expr> ... endif
Kconfig.prompt: the section in the docs about the prompt left me with the impression that it is possible to define several prompts for the same "config" entry if there is an "if" clause appended to each prompt. kconfig warns about prompt redefinitions and only considers the last defined prompt.
That's correct. A single menu entry can have only one prompt, but a config symbol can have multiple menu entries.
