Formal Semantics of the Kconfig Language

arXiv:2209.04916

Abstract

The Kconfig language defines a set of symbols that are assigned a value in a configuration. We describe the semantics of the Kconfig language according to the behavior exhibited in the xconfig configurator. We assume an abstract syntax representation for concepts in the Kconfig language and delegate the details of the translation from concrete to abstract syntaxes to a later document.
