Hi,
You can use scripts/config in the kernel source tree.
Something like this (I don't have RT kernel sources):


scripts/config -e PREEMPT_RT
scripts/config -e HIGH_RES_TIMERS
scripts/config -e NO_HZ_FULL
scripts/config -e HZ_1000
scripts/config -e CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE


Note that if any of those have other Kconfig dependencies, those Kconfig
symbols will also have to be enabled for this to work.

And then run 'make oldconfig' to update the kernel .config file.


HTH.
