    There's something in -ac tree:

      x CONFIG_IKCONFIG: x
      x x
      x This option enables the complete Linux kernel ".config" file x
      x contents, information on compiler used to build the kernel, x
      x kernel running when this kernel was built and kernel version x
      x from Makefile to be saved in kernel. It provides documentation x
      x of which kernel options are used in a running kernel or in an x
      x on-disk kernel. This information can be extracted from the kernel x
      x image file with the script scripts/extract-ikconfig and used as x
      x input to rebuild the current kernel or to build another kernel. x
      x It can also be extracted from a running kernel by reading x
      x /proc/ikconfig/config and /proc/ikconfig/built_with, if enabled. x
      x /proc/ikconfig/config will list the configuration that was used x
      x to build the kernel and /proc/ikconfig/built_with will list x
      x information on the compiler and host machine that was used to x
      x build the kernel. x
