+# Instructions
+###########################################################################
+#
+# Create new control files for checklist:
+#
+# 1. Remove any selection for CREATE_BOARD_CHECKLIST
+# 2. Remove any selection for MAKE_CHECKLIST_PUBLIC
+# 3. make
+# 4. nm build/cbfs/fallback/<stage>.debug > <stage>_symbols.txt
+# 6. sed 's/^...........//' <stage>_symbols.txt > <stage>_complete.dat
+# 7. grep -F " W " <stage>_symbols.txt | sed 's/^...........//' \
+# > <stage>_optional.dat
+# 8. Edit <stage>_complete.dat to remove any symbols that are not
+# desired in the report
+# 9. Edit <stage>_optional.dat to remove any symbols that are
+# required to be implemented
+#
+# Create a board checklist:
+#
+# 1. select CREATE_BOARD_CHECKLIST
+# 2. Optionally: select MAKE_CHECKLIST_PUBLIC
+# 3. Specify CONFIG_CHECKLIST_DATA_FILE_LOCATION
+# 4. make
+#
+# Build Errors:
+# * No checklist built - verify CREATE_BOARD_CHECKLIST is selected in
+# board Kconfig file. Do a make clean
+# * <stage>_complete.dat not found - verify that
+# CONFIG_CHECKLIST_DATA_FILE_LOCATION points to the directory
+# containing the checklist data files. Build the checklist
+# data files if necessary.
+# * Segmentation fault - most likely caused by $(NM_$(class)) not being
+# set.
