I did a naive test with the current kconfig branch and with
yem-kconfig-for-next:
$ git checkout a45c7df
$ echo CONFIG_MODULES=y >all.config
$ >test-orig; for i in `seq 1000`; do KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 make
randconfig || break; grep -c '=m' .config >>test-orig; done
...
$ git checkout e43956e
$ >test-new; ...
$ awk '{ sum += $1; num++ } END { print sum / num}' test-orig
573.247
$ awk '{ sum += $1; num++ } END { print sum / num}' test-new
565.194
I am not a statistician, but this looks OK to me. For reference, the
figure was ~340 with the previous patch.
I pulled your changes to kbuild.git#kconfig.
Thanks,
Michal
