The Kernel Configuration has so many items, I dont konw how to config these items.
Such as General setup–>
Enable loadable module support–>
…
Do have some reference files to explain the meaning of every item ?
So that I can config them easily and comfortably.
The command I use is menuconfig.
Thank you very much！
Hi lnu_liuyang,
Please refer to the L4T development guide first - https://docs.nvidia.com/jetson/l4t/index.html#page/Tegra%2520Linux%2520Driver%2520Package%2520Development%2520Guide%2Fkernel_custom.html%23
Thank you for your reply!

Hi,
You can get a basic idea on how to configure each menu item by reading the help message available when you run the make menuconfig command
Because I dont konw how to configure each option to config Y ,N ,M，and the meaning of every item of the Kernel Configuration .
Thank you very much!That’s a good idea!
The target “make tegra_defconfig” will set sane defaults for everything. From there you simply need to start the “make menuconfig”, and then set a few entries which you are interested in changing.
The “y” entries change the kernel itself, and may imply a need to do a more involved installation. The “m” entry builds as a module, and is a simple file copy, but not all features can be in module format (“make menuconfig” will not offer “m” if module format is not available).
Note that a Jetson will show its current running config via the “/proc/config.gz” file. After gunzip of this and change of name to “.config”, this is nearly an exact match for duplicating the existing config. CONFIG_LOCALVERSION is the only thing this does not match. This thread is a bit old, but has some basics:

Note that “make tegra_defconfig” is mostly the same as starting with the “/proc/config.gz” file you would obtain and put in place if the system you copy the file from uses the default kernel.
This talks about modules versus integrated features (“m” versus “y”):
