Note, we are already scanning the full source files using a custom tool to generate dependencies.... oh nevermind, we used to use a custom tool, we seem to be just transforming gcc -MD output now. Anyways, if we were still using that custom optimized parser we could have put the Kconfig/Makefile info extracter in there. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
