Hi all, actually the problem isn't that easy... some of the information from the Kbuild files is not entirely straight-forward to extract. If you're interested in the former (that is, what config symbols have to be enabled to have a file compiled), there is a Python tool called "golem" in the toolsuite[0] from our group which determines the preconditions for files to be built (called with parameter "-i"). Sadly it currently takes a few hours to finish as it probes the build system with changing partial configurations. I'm currently working on a faster combined parsing/probing approach and could make an early development snapshot of the parser available to you, please contact me directly if you want to have a look at that. For something similar to the latter problem (which files get compiled from a specific configuration) golem can be called with the "-c" parameter and a source file to determine if the file is compiled with the current configuration. You could use that to match a configuration option to a file. Alternatively, you can use the "-l" parameter to see a list of all files compiled with the current configuration. Hope this helps, Andreas [0] https://undertaker.cs.fau.de On 30.10.2014 07:16, Julia Lawall wrote: > > > On Wed, 29 Oct 2014, Luis R. Rodriguez wrote: > >> On Wed, Oct 29, 2014 at 4:15 PM, Luis R.
