Could you please be a bit more specific in your questions.
Do you request info about hte cml1 -> Kconfig converter, or just Kconfig
itself?
Kconfig is a simple language used to configure the Linux kernel.
Kconfig is tailored to the kernel, and therefore choices are often
n : Do not include this
y : includes this functionality
m : include this functionality as a module
Different functionalities can depend on each other.
The Kconfig files are read by the kconfig backend and visualised
by one of the front ends.
conf (config) : List all choices
mconf (menuconfig): utilising ncurser displays a nice menu based program
qconf: (xconfig): Using QT list all choices in a grapical tree structure
gconf: (): Same as qconf, based on GTK-2.0. (Under development, looks good)
Take a peek in Documentation/kbuild/config-language.txt (or similar name)
Try to browse a few kconfig files
Try to configure a kernel
This should give you a good understanding on the functionality.
Finally - if you hope for more feedback then be a bit more precise, and
reply to follow-up questions.
