Create Linux kernel configuration script #8

@jodh-intel

Description

@jodh-intel

As @sameo noted in kata-containers/linux#5 (comment), we should have a script that can generate a valid kernel configuration file.

The script will generate a valid .config kernel configuration file to be used by the kernel's build system.

However, the script will allow individual options and groups of options to be documented as the kernel's config file does not support comments (well, it does, but only for "commented out" / disabled CONFIG_ options).

Each group of config options in the script should document:

  • Why it has been enabled.
  • If there is any known impact (positive or negative) on boot speed / general performance.
  • If there is any known impact (positive or negative) on memory density.
