Waydroid wiki issues:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Waydro … g_a_kernel

I'm concerned about this section.

Typically, modifying the kernel config in such a manner is risky and is heavily advised against.

Is it really proper that we put like that instead of a form like the gentoo wiki does, like:

Kernel Config:
     Device Drivers --->
          Android --->
                 [*]      Android Binder IPC Driver
                 [*]      Android Binderfs filesystem
                 (binder,hwbinder,vndbinder) Android Binder devices

Sure, I get the idea that this section does not have many implications in the kernel dependency tree.

But I do consider it a rule of thumb to not modify .config by hand. It should be done by the kernel build system, by calling make menuconfig or so.

(I don't know if it is proper to put this here, it may be more proper to be in the Kernel & Hardware section. I'm putting this because waydroid stuff......)
