Since a different version, or +# MIN_CONFIG may cause different dependecies, it must run through this +# preparation. +# +# Overwrites any config set in the bad config with a config set in +# either the MIN_CONFIG or ADD_CONFIG. Thus, make sure these configs +# are minimal and do not disable configs you want to test: +# (ie. # CONFIG_FOO is not set). +# +# An oldconfig is run on the bad config and any new config that +# appears will be added to the configs to test. +# +# Finally, it generates a config with the above result and runs it +# again through make oldconfig to produce a config that should be +# satisfied by kconfig. +# +# Then it starts the bisect. +# +# The configs to test are cut in half. If all the configs in this +# half depend on a config in the other half, then the other half +# is tested instead. If no configs are enabled by either half, then +# this means a circular dependency exists and the test fails. +# +# A config is created with the test half, and the bisect test is run. +# +# If the bisect succeeds, then all configs in the generated config +# are removed from the configs to test and added to the configs that +# will be enabled for all builds (they will be enabled, but not be part +# of the configs to examine). +# +# If the bisect fails, then all test configs that were not enabled by +# the config file are removed from the test. These configs will not +# be enabled in future tests.
