Description

According to the Declarative Services Specification Section 112.3.5, Circular References, circular service references must be detected and logged:

Circular references must be detected by SCR when it attempts to satisfy
component configurations and SCR must fail to satisfy the references
involved in the cycle and log an error message with the Log Service, if
present.

This is not currently implemented like this, particularly there is not logging of such situations.
