> Given the number of config variables, and states for those variables and
dependency, I think we need a **large set of** golden configs (not just one )
and tooling to build test a new/deleted config var.

The golden config is justed for automation test, each arch should have at
least one config for virtual platform(qemu or sim) and run LTP test suite to
ensure the basic quality.
> When I am messing with Kconfig I build test all the permutation of the
settings change. This finds all sorts of subtle problems: like unused vars that
the codding style tends to cause because we can not define were used.

@btashton @liuguo09 @yamt @lulingar and @patacongo - Thank you all. We just
need to get better coverage. It would be nice to have this on the road map and
define some tasks that we can all help with.
Yes, we need extend the build matrix to coverage more combination for build,
but ranconfig like linux can help a lot:
