[poky] workflow - kernel config

[Robert Berger]

Hi,

I'm playing with poky-edison-6.0 and the default 2.6.37.6 kernel on a
beagle board with core-image-sato-sdk.

Interestingly enough there is user space support e.g. for oprofile, but
oprofile is not configured in the kernel.

The same for lacencytop and powertop,...

So I was wondering what's the preferred workflow to start with the
"yocto-default" kernel config and add kernel configuration options
afterwards.

What's I've tried so far is:

bitbake virtual/kernel -c clean
bitbake virtual/kernel -c configure
bitbake virtual/kernel -c menuconfig
bitbake virtual/kernel -c compile
bitbake virtual/kernel -c deploy

Once I'll have a kernel config I'm happy with I would like to use a
config file instead of menuconfig.

Please advise,

Regards,

Robert
