- "modules"
This declares the symbol to be used as the MODULES symbol, which
enables the third modular state for all config symbols.
+ At most one symbol may have the "modules" option set.
- "env"=<value>
This imports the environment variable into Kconfig. It behaves like
to the build environment (if this is desired, it can be done via
another symbol).
+ - "allnoconfig_y"
+ This declares the symbol as one that should have the value y when
+ using "allnoconfig". Used for symbols that hide other symbols.

Menu dependencies
-----------------
depends on BAR && m
limits FOO to module (=m) or disabled (=n).
-
-Kconfig symbol existence
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The following two methods produce the same kconfig symbol dependencies
-but differ greatly in kconfig symbol existence (production) in the
-generated config file.
-
-case 1:
-
-config FOO
- tristate "about foo"
- depends on BAR
-
-vs. case 2:
-
-if BAR
-config FOO
- tristate "about foo"
-endif
-
-In case 1, the symbol FOO will always exist in the config file (given
-no other dependencies). In case 2, the symbol FOO will only exist in
-the config file if BAR is enabled.
