poking around kern-tools for purpose of documenting some stuff and
ran across this in "updateme":
split_command_line_objects() {
command_line_values=$@
for v in $command_line_values; do
v_base=`basename $v`
case $v_base in
*.scc) migrate_feature $v
;;
*.cfg) migrate_cfg $v
;;
*.patch|*.diff) migrate_patch $v
;;
defconfig) migrate_cfg $v;;
*) ;;
esac
done
}
AFAICT, there is no mention of a possible "defconfig" entry anywhere
in the current yocto kernel manual.

You won't find it there because it isn't specific to the kern-tools, what
you see
there is a small wrapper on top of the kernel.bbclass defconfig handling,
with
the same end result. So standard yocto/oe-core docs apply here.

Bruce

I also forgot to mention that Darren did cover defconfigs in the yocto
kernel
docs that were put together for the 1.4 release (I think they were posted
here),
so there's better / additional coverage upcoming!
I'm just not near my normal development systems to confirm, since I'm hiding
out for the holidays watching a pack of kids get completely wound up for the
big day!

They are in the process of being edited by our tech writer as well as
being converted from ascii to docbook. You can see the current state of
them here:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/hart/kernel-dev/kernel-dev.html
See Section 2.2.2 and the sections that follow.
Keep in mind these are being actively worked on, so there are some rough
edges we're working through still.
Thanks,
Darren

This manual has not been merged with yocto-docs/master yet so the book is not available as an "In Progess" book just yet.
