Is it the same to comment out a variable in .config than assigning 'N' to it?
Also could somebody explain the big picture of how does the kernel
configuration/build process treats the commented out variables in
.config?
Or even more general:
Could anybody please help me in understanding the main picture of how a .config variable gets #define'd or #undefine'd in the kernel
header files?
Many thanks,
Max

you'd be way better off taking this to the kernelnewbies list.
