In CI, they run add very specific config options to already well-established .config. In my development suite, I'm removing extra options with merge_config script. subprocess.call(cmd + ['defconfig', 'kvm_guest.config', 'nopm.config', 'debug.config']) subprocess.call(['scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh', '-y', '-m', '-q', '.config', '/plugins/kernel.config']) subprocess.call(cmd + ['olddefconfig']) https://github.com/Mellanox/mkt/blob/master/plugins/do-build.py#L19 https://github.com/Mellanox/mkt/commit/26d7cbd776f508ab506f6d33cfe0e9b0bf44d557 I need both chunks, silence make ... and silence merge_config script.
