2009-12-12kbuild: generate modules.builtinMichal Marek
To make it easier for module-init-tools and scripts like mkinitrd to distinguish builtin and missing modules, install a modules.builtin file listing all builtin modules. This is done by generating an additional config file (tristate.conf) with tristate options set to uppercase 'Y' or 'M'. If we source that config file, the builtin modules appear in obj-Y.

2009-06-09kconfig: resort the documentation of the environment variablesMarkus Heidelberg
All the KCONFIG_ environment variables were previously located in a section "Environment variables in 'menuconfig'", but neither are they restricted to 'menuconfig' nor are they all used by 'menuconfig'. Introduce the following three sections for these variables: * Environment variables for '*config' * Environment variables for '{allyes/allmod/allno/rand}config' * Environment variables for 'silentoldconfig' Furthermore this puts MENUCONFIG_MODE next to MENUCONFIG_COLOR into a common section "User interface options for 'menuconfig'".
