Hello,
We talked about improved INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE work some time ago. I
cleaned it up, and I have prepared a patch for the latest -CURRENT.
It's here:
http://people.freebsd.org/~wkoszek/patches/kernconf.patch
If you have any suggestions, please let me know as I'd really like to
see this patch into the tree before RELENG_7.
Please note that the changes aren't very serious, but config(8)'s
functionality is, so any worries should be stated now.
With this patch, after building a kernel with:
options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE
you should be able to obtain it's configuration file with a new config(8)
and it's -k option:
config -k <kernelfile>
The output should be ready to be redirected to a file:
config -k <kernelfile> > NEWKERNEL
Now, you should be able to type:
config NEWKERNEL
And newly created kernel should contain the very same options as the old
one.
Thanks,
