Interestingly enough there is user space support e.g. for oprofile, but oprofile is not configured in the kernel. The same for lacencytop and powertop,... So I was wondering what's the preferred workflow to start with the "yocto-default" kernel config and add kernel configuration options afterwards. What's I've tried so far is: bitbake virtual/kernel -c clean bitbake virtual/kernel -c configure bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig bitbake virtual/kernel -c compile bitbake virtual/kernel -c deploy Once I'll have a kernel config I'm happy with I would like to use a config file instead of menuconfig. Please advise, Regards, Robert ...WANTED: Schroedinger's Cat. Dead or Alive. My public pgp key is available at: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x90320BF1
