Configuring the Yocto Project kernel consists of making sure the
.config
file has all the right information
in it for the image you are building.
You can use the menuconfig
tool and
configuration fragments to make sure your
.config
file is just how you need it.
You can also save known configurations in a
defconfig
file that the build system can use
for kernel configuration.
This section describes how to use menuconfig
,
create and use configuration fragments, and how to interactively
modify your .config
file to create the
leanest kernel configuration file possible.
For more information on kernel configuration, see the "Changing the Configuration" section in the Yocto Project Linux Kernel Development Manual.
