<p>The kernel configuration settings in this document are meant to be used as a
base for an Android kernel configuration. All devices should have the options
in android-base configuration enabled. While not mandatory, the options in
android-recommended configuration enable advanced Android 
features.</p>

<p>
Generating kernel config: Assuming you already have a minimalist defconfig for your device, a possible
way to enable these options would be:</p>

<pre>ARCH=<arch> scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh <path_to>/<device>_defconfig android/configs/android-base.cfg 
android/configs/android-recommended.cfg</pre>
<p>
This will generate a .config that can then be used to save a new defconfig or
compile a new kernel with Android features enabled.
</p>
