Hi,
These two patches are introducing a way to use fzf with the kernel config options.
Using 'make fzfconfig' opens a list of all config options and their state in the currently used configuration file. A preview is provided for the currently selected config option in the list, showing the original Kconfig snippet. Using Enter opens make menuconfig for the selected option.
I reused the existing helpnewconfig command as it contains all the information necessary and extended it to display all options using helpallconfig. Using a wrapper script, that does simple parsing, the view is transformed into a line based representation that is usable by fzf.
I used this helper for some time now and it seems to work quite good for me, though there may be cornercases for symbols etc. where it doesn't work. I chose to use helpnewconfig/helpallconfig as it seems to be just a small modification on the existing codebase to achieve fzf support.
Best Markus
