If KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is used without a +filename, "make *config" checks for a file named +"all{yes/mod/no/random}.config" (corresponding to the *config command +that was used) for symbol values that are to be forced. If this file +is not found, it checks for a file named "all.config" to contain forced +values. + +This enables you to create "miniature" config (miniconfig) or custom +config files containing just the config symbols that you are interested +in. Then the kernel config system generates the full .config file, +including dependencies of your miniconfig file, based on the miniconfig +file. + +This 'KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG' file is a config file which contains +(usually a subset of all) preset config symbols. These variable +settings are still subject to normal dependency checks. + +Examples: + KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=custom-notebook.config make allnoconfig +or + KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=mini.config make allnoconfig +or + make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=mini.config allnoconfig + +These examples will disable most options (allnoconfig) but enable or +disable the options that are explicitly listed in the specified +mini-config files. + +KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE +-------------------------------------------------- +If this variable has a non-blank value, it prevents silent kernel +config udpates (requires explicit updates). + +KCONFIG_CONFIG +-------------------------------------------------- +This environment variable can be used to specify a default kernel config +file name to override the default name of ".config". + +KCONFIG_OVERWRITECONFIG +-------------------------------------------------- +If you set KCONFIG_OVERWRITECONFIG in the environment, Kconfig will not +break symlinks when .config is a symlink to somewhere else. + +KCONFIG_NOTIMESTAMP +-------------------------------------------------- +If this environment variable exists and is non-null, the timestamp line +in generated .config files is omitted. + +KCONFIG_AUTOCONFIG +-------------------------------------------------- +This environment variable can be set to specify the path & name of the +"auto.conf" file.
