savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file
named "defconfig".
The config symbols are saved in the same order as
they appear in the menu structure so it should
be possible to map them to the relevant menus
if desired.
The implementation was tested against several minimal
configs for arm which was created using brute-force.
There was one regression related to default numbers
which had their valid range further limited by another symbol.
Sample:
config FOO
int "foo"
default 4
config BAR
int "bar"
range 0 FOO
If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3.
But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4.
This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK,
and the fix was non-trivial.
So it was documented in the code and left as is.

alldefconfig create a configuration with all values set
to their default value (form the Kconfig files).
This may be useful when we try to use more sensible default
values and may also be used in combination with
the minimal defconfigs.

Rename to a name that better match the other kconfig targets.
listnewconfig shall read as:
- list new options compared to current configuration
New options are now written to stdout so one can redirect the output.
Do not exit with an error code if there is new options.
These are feature changes compared to the original
nonint_oldconfig - but as this feature has not yet been in a
released kernel it should not matter.
It is still possible to do:
make listnewconfig
lookup new config options in Kconfig*
edit .config

The list of options supported by conf is growing
and their abbreviation did not resemble anything usefull.
So drop the single letter options in favour of long options.
The long options are named equal to what we know from
the make target.
The internal implmentation was changed to match this,
resulting in much more readable code.
Support for short options is dropped - no one is supposed
to call this program direct anyway.

Making gconfig fails on fedora 13 as the linker cannot resolve dlsym.
Adding libdl to the link command fixes this.
make shows this error :-

/usr/bin/ld: note: 'dlsym@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /lib64/libdl.so.2 so try adding it to the linker command line

This patch has been around for a long time in Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise
Linux kernels and it may be useful for others. The nonint_oldconfig target
will fail and print the unset config options while loose_nonint_oldconfig will
simply let the config option unset. They're useful in distro kernel packages
where the config files are built using a combination of smaller config files.
Arjan van de Ven wrote the initial nonint_config and Roland McGrath added the
loose_nonint_oldconfig.

Doing the following:
make LSMOD=file localmodconfig
Will make the streamline-config code use the given file instead of
lsmod. If the file is an executable, it will execute it, otherwise
it will read it as text.
make LSMOD=/my/local/path/lsmod localmodconfig
The above will execute the lsmod in /my/local/path instead of the
lsmods that may be located elsewhere.
make LSMOD=embedded_board_lsmod localmodconfig
The above will read the "embedded_board_lsmod" as a text file. This
is useful if you are doing a cross compile and need to run the
config against modules that exist on an embedded device.
Note, if the LSMOD= file does is not a path, it will add the
path to the object directory. That is, the above example will look
for "embedded_board_lsmod" in the directory that the binary will
be built in (the O=dir directory).

On branch config/linus
This patch was inspired by the kernel projects page, where an ncurses
replacement for menuconfig was mentioned (by Sam Ravnborg).
Building on menuconfig, this patch implements a more modern look
interface using ncurses and ncurses' satellite libraries (menu, panel,
form). The implementation does not depend on lxdialog, which is
currently distributed with the kernel.

If someone downloads a brand new kernel and runs localmodconfig or

When the output directory is something other than the kernel source,
the streamline_config script gets confused. This patch passes in the
source directory to the script so that it can find the proper files.

There's a dependency missing.
$ make localyesconfig
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
HOSTCC scripts/basic/docproc
HOSTCC scripts/basic/hash
using config: '/boot/config-2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.x86_64'
/bin/sh: line 8: scripts/kconfig/conf: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [localyesconfig] Error 127
make: *** [localyesconfig] Error 2
Thus the script failed to run. But the sed command that converts the '=m'
to '=y' still ran. This gives us a distro config with all modules
converted to built in!
The missing dependency was for conf for localyesconfig. This
dependency was already set for localmodconfig.

If one were to run localmodconfig or localyesconfig without having
a .config already in the file, then the end of the process would give
a warning when it tries to move the old .config to .config.old.
This patch adds a test to check if .config exists and avoid the moves
if it does not.

This adds the option localyesconfig to make. This is similar to
localmodconfig, but after it removes unnecessary modules it runs
sed -i s/=m/=y/
on the .config file. It then runs "make silentoldconfig" to fix any
wholes that were created by the conversion of modules to core.

Running the streamline_config.pl script manually can still be confusing
for some users. This patch adds the localmodconfig option. This will
automatically run streamline_config.pl on the current .config and
then run "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that might have been
created.
$ make localmodconfig
This will remove any module configurations in .config that are not needed
to compile the modules that are loaded.
