Modified files:
sys/kern kern_mib.c
usr.sbin/config Makefile config.8 config.h config.y
lang.l main.c
Added files:
usr.sbin/config kernconf.tmpl
Log:
Improve INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE support.
This change will let us to have full configuration of a running kernel
available in sysctl:
sysctl -b kern.conftxt
The same configuration is also contained within the kernel image. It can be
obtained with:
config -x <kernelfile>
Current functionality lets you to quickly recover kernel configuration, by
simply redirecting output from commands presented above and starting kernel
build procedure. "include" statements are also honored, which means options
and devices from included files are also included.
Please note that comments from configuration files are not preserved by
default. In order to preserve them, you can use -C flag for config(8). This
will bring configuration file and included files literally; however,
redirection to a file no longer works directly.
