NAME

       /proc/config.gz - kernel build configuration

DESCRIPTION

       /proc/config.gz (since Linux 2.6)
              This  file  exposes the configuration options that were used to build the currently
              running kernel, in the same format as they would be shown in the .config file  that
              resulted when configuring the kernel (using make xconfig, make config, or similar).
              The file contents are compressed; view or search them using zcat(1)  and  zgrep(1).
              As  long  as  no  changes  have  been  made  to the following file, the contents of
              /proc/config.gz are the same as those provided by:

                  cat /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/.config

              /proc/config.gz   is   provided   only   if   the   kernel   is   configured   with
              CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC.
