for example:

grep PROV_SECURITY sdkconfig.defaults 
CONFIG_EXAMPLE_PROV_SECURITY_VERSION_2=y

but this variable does not make it to my sdkconfig if I removed it and recreate with

idf.py menuconfig

However, other variables seem to be blessed and get through, like these FREERTOS configs

grep FREERTOS_PLACE sdkconfig 
CONFIG_FREERTOS_PLACE_FUNCTIONS_INTO_FLASH=y
CONFIG_FREERTOS_PLACE_SNAPSHOT_FUNS_INTO_FLASH=y

I am trying to incorporate some of the provisioning example into my own. https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... v_mgr/main

Answered my own question, the answer lies in the Kconfig.projbuild file and its contents:

https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... .projbuild

certain values in sdkconfig.defaults do not make it to sdkconfig
