## Overview
Kconfig is a tool used in coreboot, Linux, and many other projects as the main configuration mechanism. In coreboot, it allows a developer both to select which platform to build and to modify various features within the platform. The Kconfig language was developed as a way to configure the Linux kernel, and is still maintained as a part of the Linux kernel tree. Starting in Linux 2.5.45, the ncurses based menuconfig was added, which is still used as the main configuration front end in coreboot today.

The -p option is very useful for debugging Kconfig issues, because it reads all of the Kconfig files in the order that the Kconfig tools would read them, and prints it out, along with where each line came from and which menu it appears in.
