The Kconfig files are examined to determine the dependencies +# of the configs. If a config is chosen that depends on another +# config, that config will be checked first. By checking the +# parents first, we can eliminate whole groups of configs that +# may have been enabled. +# +# For example, if a USB device config is chosen and depends on CONFIG_USB, +# the CONFIG_USB will be tested before the device. If CONFIG_USB is +# found not to be needed, it, as well as all configs that depend on +# it, will be disabled and removed from the current min_config. +# # OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG is the path and filename of the file that will # be created from the MIN_CONFIG. If you interrupt the test, set # this file as your new min config, and use it to continue the test. |
