    kconfig: add script to manipulate .config files on the command line · 8e54701e
    Andi Kleen authored
    I often change single options in .config files. Instead of using
    an editor or one of the frontends it's convenient to do this from
    the command line. It's also useful to do from automated build scripts
    when building different variants from a base config file.
    
    I extracted most of the CONFIG manipulation code from one of my
    build scripts into a new shell script scripts/config
    
    The script is not integrated with the normal Kconfig machinery
    and doesn't do any checking against Kconfig files, but just manipulates
    that text format. This is always done at make time anyways.
    
    I believe this script would be a useful standard addition for scripts/*
    
    Sample usage:
    
    ./scripts/config --disable smp
    Disable SMP in .config file
    
    ./scripts/config --file otherdir/.config --module e1000e
    Enable E1000E as module in otherdir/.config
    
    ./scripts/config --state smp
    y
    Check state of config option CONFIG_SMP
    
    After merging into git please make scripts/config executable
