Linux kernel: Difference between revisions

Another way is to create a overlay to configure either {{ic|extraConfig}} or {{ic|structuredExtraConfig}}. This allows for more flexibility, since you can basically override any available kernel option<ref>[https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/e6db435973160591fe7348876a5567c729495175/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/generic.nix#L11-L56<tt>pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/generic.nix#L11-L56</tt>]</ref>. Using {{ic|structuredExtraConfig}} is recommended as it checks if the configured option are correct. You may also want to set {{ic|ignoreConfigErrors}} to avoid {{ic|error: unused option}} during builds.
