Hi Dmitry,
Thank you for the patch.

To enhance code organization, it is beneficial to consolidate all A/B BCB management routines into a single super-command. The 'bcb' command is an excellent candidate for this purpose.
This patch integrates the separate 'ab_select' command into the 'bcb' group as the 'ab_select' subcommand, maintaining the same parameter list for consistency.

When building with khadas-vim3_android_defconfig, we can see that CMD_BCB is no longer part of that build:
$ grep CMD_BCB .config
<empty>
However, if we look at include/configs/meson64_android.h, we can see that the "bcb" command is not only used for checking the _slot suffix.
It's also used for checking the bootloader reason. For example, in BOOTENV_DEV_FASTBOOT, we call:
"if bcb test command = bootonce-bootloader; then " \
Since CMD_BCB is no longer part of the .config (due to this dependency), the boot script now shows errors:

I know we should not be using a boot script, nor non A/B configs but it's a bummer that this series breaks an upstream defconfig (khadas-vim3_android_defconfig)
My recommendation:
Make BCB_CMD_AB_SELECT implementation dependant on ANDROID_AB. This way, users can use CMD_BCB with and without ANDROID_AB being enabled.
We could do: When ANDROID_AB=y, implement bcb ab_select subcommand When ANDROID_AB=n, command is not accessible.
I'll send you a diff shortly for this.
Here is an illustration on how that would work:

We also need to include an #ifdef directive for the ab_select_slot() function usage; otherwise, the code will not compile successfully.
Are you sure? Per my understanding, it's possible that the compiler optimizes this out because CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(AB_SELECT) is known as build time.
When I tried this diff with khadas-vim3_android_defconfig I did not see any build errors. I will try again early next week.
As I recall, the IS_ENABLED() mechanism serves as a runtime checker to determine whether specific CONFIG_* options are enabled. Consequently, all code paths under this mechanism are always compiled. I attempted to disable CONFIG_ANDROID_AB for the sandbox_defconfig, but it resulted in the expected linker error.

I have already prepared a new version using #ifdef directives. I will send it shortly.
