I was looking at the Yocto Development Manual (Latest), section 4.6.2. Creating Config Fragments. I was confused about the file statement and the naming of the directory to locate the fragment file until I found a similar discussion in the BSP Guide (lastest) section 1.2.10. Linux Kernel Configuration.

The section there is much more understandable. I think we need to modify the development manual or have it point to the BSP manual. The text from there (below) I think is better. I still think it's confusing about the naming of the subdirectory where the myconfig goes. Maybe a complete example would be good.

   For example, suppose you had a set of configuration options in a
   file called |myconfig|. If you put that file inside a directory
   named |linux-yocto| and then added a |SRC_URI| statement such as the
   following to the append file, those configuration options will be
   picked up and applied when the kernel is built.

         SRC_URI += "file://myconfig"
   As mentioned earlier, you can group related configurations into
   multiple files and name them all in the |SRC_URI| statement as well.
   For example, you could group separate configurations specifically
   for Ethernet and graphics into their own files and add those by
   using a |SRC_URI| statement like the following in your append file:

         SRC_URI += "file://myconfig \
                file://eth.cfg \
                file://gfx.cfg"
