.Sh NAME
.Nm kconf - kernel configuration
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Ft cat CONFIG_FILE | kconf
.Sh DESCRIPTION
During the kernel build process, kconf parses a config file and
generates define flags that can be passed to the compiler.
Example config file:
--
.Bd -literal
// Example of options that can be enabled
// and disabled.
option FOO yes
option BLAH no
// Example of constants that can be set
// within the kernel.
setval SOME_INT 32
setval SOME_STR "foo"
.Ed
--
The above example will output the following:
-D__FOO=1 -D__BLAH=0 -D__SOME_INT=32 -D__SOME_STR="foo"
The
.Ft option
keyword allows options to be toggled on or off (yes, no).
The
.Ft setval
keyword sets a global constant within the kernel.
