Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] linux: clarify kernel configuration entries
Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2015 19:30:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150305183004.GC3944@free.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1425578112-7407-1-git-send-email-vivien.didelot@savoirfairelinux.com>

Vivien, Thomas, All,

On 2015-03-05 12:55 -0500, Vivien Didelot spake thusly:
> Since BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE can either be a complete
> .config file or a defconfig file, it can be confusing to the user
> whether to choose BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_DEFCONFIG or
> BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_CUSTOM_CONFIG.
> 
> To avoid that confusion, clarify Kconfig entry messages for in-tree
> defconfig and custom (def)config files.
> 
> Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot <vivien.didelot@savoirfairelinux.com>

Acked-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
