would HOST_LIBCRYPTO be better?
I had considered a shorter kconfig such as the above. Does it mean (1) The build host has libcrypto available? (2) We use the libcrypto on the host? (3) There is a libcrypto for the target?
"tools" is a subset of what we do on the host so it seems more concrete. I realize you could read "tools use libcrypto" as a statement rather than a question, which would seem odd in kconfig.
As far as having a verb, I thought it to be important because there isn't a substantially similar use of Kconfig in u-boot. I didn't want the name to be too vague.
Hope this clears things up, Alex
