+        Writes out symbol values in the .config format. The format matches the
+        C implementation, including ordering.
+
+        Symbols appear in the same order in generated .config files as they do
+        in the Kconfig files. For symbols defined in multiple locations, a
+        single assignment is written out corresponding to the first location
+        where the symbol is defined.
+
+        See the 'Intro to symbol values' section in the modules docstring to
+        understand which symbols get written out.
