How to skip reading /etc/my.cnf by mysqld

Hi: I am trying to test mysql options and would like to have mysqld only read ~/.my.cnf instead of using the normal sequence to read /etc/my.cnf $datadir/my.cnf and ~/.my.cnf. This would prevent many unexpected issues in testing. But I could not find the way to disable the /etc/my.cnf. Any help
