The current behaviour of rvgen when running with the -a option is to append the necessary lines at the end of the configuration for Kconfig, Makefile and tracepoints. This is not always the desired behaviour in case of nested monitors: while tracepoints are not affected by nesting and the Makefile's only requirement is that the parent monitor is built before its children, in the Kconfig it is better to have children defined right after their parent, otherwise the result has wrong indentation: [*] foo_parent monitor [*] foo_child1 monitor [*] foo_child2 monitor [*] bar_parent monitor [*] bar_child1 monitor [*] bar_child2 monitor [*] foo_child3 monitor [*] foo_child4 monitor Adapt rvgen to look for a different marker for nested monitors in the Kconfig file and append the line right after the last sibling, instead of the last monitor. Also add the marker when creating a new parent monitor.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
