streamline_config.pl: add LMC_KEEP to preserve some kconfigs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Sometimes it is useful to preserve batches of configs when making
localmodconfig. For example, I usually don't want any usb and fs
modules to be disabled. Now we can do it by:

 $ make LMC_KEEP="drivers/usb:fs" localmodconfig

Also, you can preserve modules in certain folders
or kconfig files by specifying their paths in
parameter LMC_KEEP.

target$ lsmod > /tmp/mylsmod
target$ scp /tmp/mylsmod host:/tmp

host$ make LSMOD=/tmp/mylsmod localmodconfig
host$ make LSMOD=/tmp/mylsmod \
LMC_KEEP="drivers/usb:drivers/gpu:fs" \
localmodconfig

The above also works when cross compiling.

"make localyesconfig" Similar to localmodconfig, except it will convert
all module options to built in (=y) options.
all module options to built in (=y) options. You can
also preserve modules by LMC_KEEP.

"make kvmconfig" Enable additional options for kvm guest kernel support.
