I removed all lines from all defconfigs that don't affect the resulting
.config basing on .35-rc1. The diffstat is below. As far as I checked
there are no added lines and the 'pluses' are only context noise. So
the defconfigs are down to 124.4 (from 1214.4) lines on average.
You can see the result at
http://git.pengutronix.de/?p=ukl/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=arm/defconfig/reduced-v2.6.35-rc1
I'm currently reducing the defconfigs in .34 to be able to compare the
diffstats between (.34 -> .35-rc1) and between (.34-reduced ->
.35-reduced). I would expect the diff is more or less the same as with
the Kconfig idea.
Compared to the Kconfig idea I see a few advantages:
- Assuming that kautobuild would only use a base config + per arch
selections we would loose compile coverage of e.g. CONFIG_AEABI.
- I have a script that reduces a config, so there is a bit less manual
work.
- No need to change kautobuild
Best regards
