Block the possibility of compiling library_manager without CONFIG_LLEXT, which obviously fails with dozens of linker errors.

PS: I have no idea why library_manager depends on IPC_MAJOR_4. Kconfig is designed to express actual code dependencies, not "supported" configurations.

Loadable modules tests failed in https://sof-ci.01.org/sof-pr-viewer/#/build/PR9222/build14036351 so this requires more investigation.

which build target it is affecting? Loadable modules are feature supported from mtl and up.

config LIBRARY_MANAGER
bool "Library Manager Support"
default n
depends on CONFIG_LLEXT

I don't think this is correct. The library manager can also be used for LMDK and IADK modules, which don't need LLEXT

It was even more incorrect because it should have been:

Suggested change
depends on CONFIG_LLEXT
depends on LLEXT

I see a related Kconfig fix in #9199, so maybe that helped. Will try again.

This does not matter. See commit message:

Kconfig is designed to express actual code dependencies, not "supported" configurations.

There is at least one, non-Intel configuration with Zephyr+IPC3 right now. I doubt it will ever want to use LLEXT but it is not Kconfig's job to stop that and it should be possible to try as long as there's no incompatibility at the code level.

Kconfig is not a project management tool or bug tracking tool.

No time to get to the bottom of this. Just filed more generic:
