O que 'make localmodconfig' faz?

Question

O que o make localmodconfig faz e o que você deve definir para que o hardware externo seja suportado?

    

Answer 1

Do kernel README :

"make localmodconfig" Create a config based on current config and loaded modules (lsmod). Disables any module option that is not needed for the loadedmodules.

To create a localmodconfig for another machine, store the lsmod of that machine into a file and pass it in as a LSMOD parameter.

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

               host$ make LSMOD=/tmp/mylsmod 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.
