This accepts a single command to execute. It returns the standard
output from it.
[Example code]
config HELLO
string
default "$(shell,echo hello world)"
config Y
def_bool $(shell,echo y)
[Result]
$ make -s alldefconfig && tail -n 2 .config
CONFIG_HELLO="hello world"
CONFIG_Y=y
Caveat:
Like environments, functions are expanded in the lexer. You cannot
pass symbols to function arguments. This is a limitation to simplify
the implementation. I want to avoid the dynamic function evaluation,
which would introduce much more complexity.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
