So I'm making my own deltaconfig I can feed into "make allyesconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=deltaconfig", to switch stuff I don't want off, and I'm fuzzy on what several of these symbols currently _do_... CONFIG_FEATURE_PREFER_APPLETS: │ This is an experimental option which directs applets about to │ │ call 'exec' to try and find an applicable busybox applet before │ │ searching the PATH. This is typically done by exec'ing │ │ /proc/self/exe. When this is deselected (as defconfig does), does this mean it searches for built-in applets _after_ trying the $PATH? Or that it _only_ tries the $PATH? CONFIG_BUSYBOX_PIE Why is this indented under CONFIG_STATIC when its visiblity doesn't depend on it? CONFIG_FEATURE_SYSLOG Remove the description string from the .config and it won't show up in the menu. CONFIG_FEATURE_HAVE_RPC: Ditto. CONFIG_PAM I despise pluggable authentication modules, but I don't know if leaving this enabled will screw anything up when there's no pam configured in the root filesystem. Anybody know? CONFIG_VOLUMEID The help text here says "TODO". Is this another SYSYLOG/HAVE_RPC internal symbol we shouldn't actually display type thing? CONFIG_DEVFSD It's the end of 2008. CONFIG_FEATURE_DVFS Ditto. CONFIG_DEBUG_TFTP Should this depend on ENABLE_DEBUG? CONFIG_FEATURE_UDHCP_DEBUG Ditto, and why is this a "CONFIG_FEATURE" when the TFTP one is a "CONFIG_DEBUG"? CONFIG_ASH_GETOPTS Does this have any relation to the CONFIG_GETOPT in Linux System Utilities?
