I am now trying to make my own kernel for the HoFo ROM with BFS. I would appreciate a little help, as this is my first at making a kernel. So far I am unsuccessful. Here are the steps that I have taken so far:
1) I've downloaded the source and placed them in ../msm
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/msm.git
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2) I've downloaded the ARM files and placed them in ../msm/arm-2009q1
3) I applied TT's patch:
patch -p1 < kernel-2.6.27-TT-V3.patch
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4) I used gboddina's config:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550558
5) I set the path:
export PATH=../msm/arm-2009q1/bin:$PATH

6) I tried compiling:
make zImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And I get this error:

Any ideas about what is causing this error? The path is correct...
Seems like a missing file to me. Check paths and try again.
I am sure the path is correct. I also added a line with the path in the Makefile as this post has suggested:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531194
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6

Try adding the absolute path rather than the relative and see if it helps.
I just entered the absolute path in step 6 and it started compiling. Thanks.
One more question, to switch to the 2.6.29 kernel version, do I just follow these commands:
$ cd kernel
$ git checkout --track -b android-2.6.29 origin/android-2.6.29

Hey, i. Am not ignirung you. Iam away from laptop until later today - when i get back i wiltry to help. I may write a how to for basic stuff...
Here is what I do to build the kernel.
I havent had too many errors - I guess I am lucky.
1)Get and build android source: http://source.android.com/download. I didn't specify a branch when I did my repo init:
Code:
repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
2)You need to add the location of arm-eabi- to your PATH. arm-eabi- is located in
Code:
<android source dir>/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.3.1
3)Create a script or an alias that will let you run make for the kernel without always specifying options. The command used to make the kernel is:
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
I created an alias to makeand.
4. Get the kernel source from cyanogen's github.
Code:
mkdir cyan-kernel
cd cyan-kernel
git clone git://github.com/cyanogen/cm-kernel.git
git branch -r
checkout --track -b cm-donut-4.1 origin/cm-donut-4.1
5. You can create a config or use one from a 32B device. There have been a few posted in my thread. The config is located in /proc/config.gz on the device. config.gz needs to be extracted and renamed to .config. Put the kernel config in the directory of the kernel source
6. You need to patch the kernel from TigerTael. It will edit the memory settings to enable the phone to boot.
http://www.4shared.com/file/128338342/3ef0c7a9/kernel-2627-TT-V3patchtar.html
7. Apply the patch to the kernel source:
Code:
cd <kernel source dir>
patch -p3 < patch_location
The -p3 means that it will ignore the first 3 / in the filenames in the patch file. It is hard to explain but google should help.
8. Make the kernel using the script or aliased command
Code:
makeand
9. The built kernel will be the zImage file in /arch/arm/boot. You can just rename this file repack it into your boot.img.
10. The wlan.ko must be generated to correspond to the kernel.
Code:
cd <cupcake source>/system/wlan/ti/sta_dk_4_0_4_32
make KERNEL_DIR="<kernel source dir>" ARCH=arm
Thank-you very much!
I ran into a few problems with the config. I tried using one of the config's that I found in your thread for 4.1.11.1, but I still had 40 options thrown at me. Many of the options where new to me and I didn't know what to choose.

Something is wrong - I idnt get any options when I used those config files. Make sure you are downloading them, removing the .zip, and extracting the .gz file. Then rename the extracted file to .config and put it in the root folder of the source. Hope that helps.

Ok I have successfully built my own kernel! I loaded your kernel on my device and then pulled the config - it compiled with your config. Now the next problem. To get the camera working I have to change the driver from video4linux to i2c; as explained by cyanogen. Any ideas?

Nope...maybe check out the config for an option. I really have idea - i just patch and compile lol.

Well I removed all of the video4linux options from the config, as they are the only new changes that I see which could be related - yet the camera still doesn't work. Any ideas?

Maybe do defconfig and see if that works...if it does compare the .config files.

I just tried using gboddina's V6 config with cyanogen's 4.1.11.1 kernel source, whereby I filled in all of the extra options by cross-referencing the 4.1.11.1 config. It was going by alright until I got this error:

I have success! I used the last good cyanogen config - version 4.1.8, and have successfully compiled version 4.1.11.1. Besides that, I comared the two configs to make sure everything is the same.

Try this:
Code:
make KERNEL_DIR="<kernel source dir>" ARCH=arm
I also needed to make sure I had the up to date android source code.

Yes, that's the command I used.
I just downloaded the repo today.
I had the same problem when compiling the kernel. I had to set the path directly. Now there is no way to set a direct path to the arm binaries.
i m trying to build a kernel for our devices
i have done every thing including config modifaction
n now m ready to compile the kernel but i have tried many commands for compiling kernel but the it always retur an error like for example when i put
this command
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER -j4
or
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER zImage -j4
get this error

plz help guyz its urgent!!!
Bro asking for technical help here isn't going to help, most devs do not look here. You try posting in various kernel threads for help, or private message a kernel developer for help

Hi,
I'm having some issues to build the kernel for my tablet Samsung Galaxy Tab p5110 from this github repo:
https://github.com/C...sung_espresso10
I'm getting the following error:
CC arch/arm/mach-omap2/common-board-devices.o
arch/arm/mach-omap2/common-board-devices.c:28: fatal error: linux/spi/ads7846.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/mach-omap2/common-board-devices.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/arm/mach-omap2] Error 2
I also had to edit arch/arm/mach-omap2/Makefile.sec because it was taking the BUILD_SOURCE as "".
I'm the doing the following steps:
# Sett the CROSS BUILD compiler here
make mrproper
make ARCH=arm cyanogenmod_p5110_defconfig
make -j4 ARCH=arm zImage
make clean
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matias Kreder
This problem was caused because of the extract to .zip function of github. It corrupted some headers.
After building this kernel we were able to boot into CM10.1 but touch doesn't work, any idea why? do you know where should I ask?
I guess I should open a separate thread for that.
Hello,
I'm coming from another phone and am new to this one. I'm jumping in to see if and where I can help with with bugs related to the cm13 device tree.
After almost a full compile, I'm running into an error I can't figure out.

You'll need the SELinux patch on gerrit. It's still a WIP. http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/118765/

Gotcha, thanks for the reply. I was able to get a full compile by removing that folder from the device/motorola/osprey folder. I'll take a look at that patch tonight when I get off of work and try it again with SELinux enabled.
