kconfig( 1M) kconfig(IM)
NAME
kconfig - tune kernel parameters for work-load optimization
SYNOPSIS
/ etc/kconfig [-a [-v] [-V]] [-nnamelist]
DESCRIPTION
kconfig manipulates an A/UX® kernel code file for changing
system parameters.
Note: It is not recommended that this utility be used unless
you know exactly what you are doing. Incorrect use
can cause system failures.
kconfig can be used to either list or change the system parameters
listed later in the section "System Parameters."
Note that kconfig does not change parameters of the running
kernel, just the image on the disk. You must then run
shutdown(IM) and reboot(IM) for the changes to be effective.
FLAG OPTIONS
kconfig interprets the following flag options:
-a
-v
-v
-n name list
List the current values of the parameters in the
kernel object file namelist.
Use with the -a flag option to produce verbose
(commented) output.
Use with the -a flag option to print the current
version of the kernel object file namelist.
Specify which kernel object file is being
modified (the default is / unix).
If -a is used, kconfig displays the parameters and exits. If-a
is not used, standard input is read for a list of changes. You can
specify one change per input line of the form
PARAM value
PARAM += value
P ARAM -= value
where P ARAM is one of the parameter names (listed later in the
section "System Parameters") and the value is either a decimal
constant or a hexadecimal constant preceded by Ox.
