I wrote loadable kernel module and test it on phone, but now i want to test it on emulator.
I use msm kernel to build that module,and use some headers in msm kernel like
Code:
msm_smd.h
but emulator use goldfish kernel and doesn't contain that header .
is there any way to use msm kernel and boot it on emulator (i ask bcz i build it but msm kernel dont boot on emulator)?
or how can i find similar header for goldfish kernel?
really need help

Hi all!
As many of you might already know we have gotten a HTC Magic here in Scandinavia without support for netfilter and iptables. I've been trying to recompile a new version of the kernel on my x86_64 Archlinux box while adding these lines to the .config which I exported from my rooted phone:
Code:
CONFIG_NETFILTER=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_STATE=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_REJECT=Y
I am a n00b when it comes to compiling, booting and flashing Android stuff and not really a git wizard either. I've downloaded the source, cross-compiled it with my new .config and tried booting it with fastboot only to stare at the HTC logo for 15 minutes before giving up. I suspect that I have probably failed doing the right thing at more than one step in the process but have troubles finding a full guide for Android kernel hacking and loading on the web. I am not even sure if I really compiled the 2.6.27 version used in the daldroid build I have on the phone instead of the latest version in git.
I will provide the step-by-step details below.
1. Downloading and installing the CodeSourcery Cross-compiler from
HTML:
http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/release858
2. Downloading setting up the android source code:
Code:
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/msm.git
git checkout --track -b msm_htc origin/android-msm-2.6.27
git checkout -f
(here I noticed that the checkouts did not seem to download any extra code, is that expected?)
3. Setting up the cross compilation in the Makefile.
Code:
CROSS_COMPILE=../arm-2009q1/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
4. Using my .config when running make like this:
Code:
make zImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
(a few additional options not present in the .config-file need to be manually specified before the build starts)
5. Extracting the ramdisk from the nordic daldroid boot.img:
Code:
split_bootimg.pl boot.img
5. Trying the new kernel with the daldroid ramdisk:
Code:
fastboot boot arch/arm/boot/zImage ../../boot.img-ramdisk.daldroid.gz
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 1634304 bytes
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... OKAY
6. Fail
I would really appreciate some help to get this going. How can I confirm that 2.6.27 was really used? What other gotchas I have forgotten about?

Hmm, unfortunately this option is already set to true.
Perhaps it is mainly a fastboot problem. I dunno.
maybe but why you dont try to make a boot.img and flash it?
did you set the system type to msm? it is important.
copy here your .config, maybe we can try to see if something is wrong or you can do this.
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=../arm-2009q1/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- msm_defconfig
for do a default msm .config.
For what I've seen, you're not making a kernel+ramdisk image, but loading them both splitted. Maybe you're missing the command line parametters?
Also, you can patch the kernel code to make it light up one of the leds so you can know if at least the kernel is actually booting or is getting stucked somewhere. To make this, you can patch, on board-sapphire.c, the init function:
Code:
static void __init sapphire_init(void)
{
int rc;
printk("sapphire_init() revision = 0x%X\n", system_rev);
/*
* Setup common MSM GPIOS
*/
config_gpios();
msm_hw_reset_hook = sapphire_reset;
msm_acpu_clock_init(&sapphire_clock_data);
/* adjust GPIOs based on bootloader request */
printk("sapphire_init: cpld_usb_hw2_sw = %d\n", cpld_usb_h2w_sw);
gpio_set_value(SAPPHIRE_GPIO_USB_H2W_SW, cpld_usb_h2w_sw);
[] INSERT HERE:
gpio_set_value(SAPPHIRE_CPLD_LED_BASE+XX, 1);
Where XX is the led number you want to enable.
Any progresses ?

Yeah, that could be a problem. I was under the impression that fastboot built the boot.img itself before transfering the kernel to the phone.
Interesting test with the leds. I'll check it out if I don't solve this.
I'm working on the exact same thing. can you contact me via im? pm for my screen names
I think that HTC patched some things in that are not available in the source tree... So I doubt that you'll be able to get a kernel running build from source. If you do happen to make it run let us know

I would not be suprised at all if that was the case. However, since the Linux kernel is GPL, such patches, as I understand it, also need to be under the GPL and made available upon request. Is there a public HTC source tree anywhere?
And btw, how can I fix the "recompile" misspelling in the title of this thread? It is driving me insane
This might be a very stupid question, but here it goes:
Shouldn't it be possible to build all the extra netfilter/iptables support for the vanilla 2.6.27 kernel as modules and insmod them when running HTC's kernel? Or will that result in swift and horrible death?
i don't see why it wouldn't. we wouldn't need the source for htc's kernel then, right? just figure out how to build the modules? isn't that kind of how proprietary video drivers work for linux?
EDIT: Modules will work, that is certain. A little googling confirmed that's how wlan and such work (on Android)
EDIT 2: It seems like there is .config for the kernel on the phone that can be used with the standard 2.6.27 kernel source to build the android kernel.
EDIT 3: found the kernel here http://github.com/zhoukejun/android-2.6.27-yf255/tree/master

Well. The kernels that we successfully have built by cross-compiling refuse to boot. Looking at the config.gz that the phone exports and trying
Code:
make oldconfig
we have learnt that HTC has a lot of parameters specified for code that appears not to be in the standard android 2.6.27 kernel source tree. We would be very very happy if someone around here could point us to the repository holding HTC specific patches and code for the Magic/Sapphire.
Based on http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00442.html , it seems we need to find the source of the android-msm-htc-2.6.27 kernel.
Which don't seems to be public.

But it has to be made public if requested. That is essence of the GPL.
i emailed them a while ago. i also talked to someone who has gotten his own kernels to boot but on the dream dev phone
I'd like to be able to use Haret to boot an OpenBSD kernel and want to compile on the machine itself.
I've used a custom script to cross compile the new kernel image.
Is there a way of using the native bootloader to boot the new kernel instead of through WinCE?
Is there a way of bypassing WinCE's rebooting when a kernel causes undervolting?
This is being done with a modified OpenBSD/zaurus kernel and a bsd.rd renamed as an initrd.
I found a solution.
I am trying to compile perf tool for arm. I have followed the instructions provided in the tool (tools/perf in the linux kernel and also tried compiling it in external/linux-tools-perf). I am getting errors like:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${NDK_TOOLCHAIN} CFLAGS="--sysroot=${NDK_SYSROOT}"
Makefile:409: No libdw.h found or old libdw.h found or elfutils is older than 0.138, disables dwarf support. Please install new elfutils-devel/libdw-dev
Makefile:424: *** No gnu/libc-version.h found, please install glibc-dev[el]/glibc-static. Stop.
But, when I try to compile it for x86 in linux kernel, there are no issues for x86. Why is that it is very hard for building this tool for arm ?
If anybody has successfully built it, please provide me tips of how to built perf tool for arm.
Thanks,
Malarand
I am also having the same problem
i tried to follow the instructions showed in perf/documentation/android.txt
but i failed with a error saying

Hello all,
Well, I just start to compile a kernel source for my Homtom HT17 (I need UVC support).
I found a source code (google HT17 kernel git)
and I compile it with success (I hope) on arm architecture (if I am not wrong, actual rom didn't use aarch64 even if the mt6737M is 64 bits)
So I have a zimage and try to flash it.
So I try to use kitchen and I am able to get to things : a new zip update that I made from a boot.img/system.img from a stock rom and I try to flash it with twrp but I had an error message (something wrong with META-INF\com\google\android\update-script)
Then I try to flash only the boot.img I made with the zimage with twrp. The phone loop at boot... (I restore it with mt flash tool and the rom I had)..
So I am very frustrated, 'cause I spent a lot of time to be able to compile the kernel...
I search a lot on Internet how to deploy correctly my kernel zimage but as now I am not able to get it running!
The problem is like I am newbies in kernel build, I dont know if my process is incorrect or my kernel is incorrect.
So finally I search somebody who could give me steps to deploy correctly my zimage on my phone...

I'm looking for a stock kernel that only patches Safetynet checking. Does this exist? If not, is it easy for me to "make it" myself?
I'm not sure if there's a prebuilt one, but building one yourself isn't too hard. The patch is at https://github.com/sultanxda/androi...bc05b16bbd33521c2fffaf491c5657a94bfcfc5.patch. You just follow the steps at http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html as usual with the following notes:
Use "kernel/msm" as the source location
Use "marlin_defconfig" as the build configuration
Apply the patch after running the git checkout command
Use the aarch64 prebuilts, not the arm ones

Depending on your motivation for a "stock kernel" you might try franco kernel. He doesn't seem to do anything that MIGHT introduce instability or strays very far from stock.
I can vouch for franco. He does minimal performance-only tweaks by default.

Hey thanks for the tip. I went ahead and patched the no safetynet patch to the android-msm-marlin-3.18-nougat-mr1 kernel source and compiled it. I now have a Image.gz-dtb file which I zipped (I also just have a binary file named "Image"). What should I with those now, just flash those like I would one of the other kernels? And which file exactly? The gz file? or the just binary file named "Image"?
So essentially "fastboot flash kernel <file_name>"?
When I was compiling I got two warnings by the way:
drivers/soc/qcom/Kconfig:371:warning choice value used outside its choice group
drivers/soc/qcom/Kconfig:376:warning choice value used outside its choice group
Anything I should be concerned about? I've never done this before, but did a lot of reading before I went ahead and used to do some C coding back in the day, so it's not completely unknown to me.
Essentially, these are the steps I followed, after quickly installing Linux Mint:
Code:
Create a working directory in /home/$USER/ (I created /home/sakete/android)
Enter working directory
Download android kernal source
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/msm
Download prebuilt toolchain
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9
cd aarch64-linux-android-4.9
export PATH=$(pwd)/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9
export CROSS_COMPILE=$(pwd)/bin/aarch64-linux-android-
export ARCH=arm64
export SUBARCH=arm64
Checkout specific kernel branch for Pixel/PixelXL (be in 'msm' folder)
git checkout android-msm-marlin-3.18-nougat-mr1
Get Safetynet Patch (still be in 'msm' folder)
git fetch https://github.com/sultanxda/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8996 cm-13.0-sultan
git cherry-pick abc05b16bbd33521c2fffaf491c5657a94bfcfc5
Build kernel (still be in 'msm' folder)
make clean
make mrproper
make marlin_defconfig
make -j$(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo)
I initially got some build errors, but running this command solved it: sudo apt-get install build-essential

Hey if you can build it and post it here, that would be awesome. This is exactly what I'm looking for.
It will let me preemptively unlock my Verizon bootloader before flashing the latest OTA, while keeping Android Pay.
Has Google already posted the source for the 7.1.1 update kernel?
The source I pulled (android-msm-marlin-3.18-nougat-mr1) should be what's in the December update. It should be 7.1.1

The Image.gz-dtb file is the one you want.

I've never done it like that, but that's apparently how Franco's kernel installs, so it's worth a shot I guess. Another way of doing it is to unpack the stock boot image with either pbatard's unmkbootimg or osm0sis's Android Image Kitchen, replace its kernel with your Image.gz-dtb, then repack and flash the new boot.img to the boot partitions.

Nothing you need to worry about.

Great, thanks, I'll try flashing the kernel tomorrow night and will post it if successful.
Interestingly it seems that Pixel (sailfish) and Pixel XL (marlin) use the same kernel / kernel source? There at least doesn't seem to be a sailfish specific source. Will be interesting to see how it pans out tomorrow.

Indeed. The same kernel binary can run on both devices. (The ElementalX and Franco kernels don't even have separate builds for the two.)
Would you mind posting the image you built?

Stock Kernel + SafetyNet Patch applied
Well holy crap, it actually worked! Just flashed the kernel, set up android pay no problem! And everything else works just fine too.
Attached is a zip.
Steps to install (make sure you have adb and fastboot set up):
- Download file and unzip
- Reboot into bootloader (power down, hold Power + Volume Down)
- Attach device to computer
- Enter command: fastboot flash kernel <kernel_image>
- Enter command: fastboot reboot
- Disconnect device and wait for it to finish booting. That's it!
You're my hero.
Might be a lot to ask, but it would be dope if you maintained where you update the build every month for Google's latest release.

I'm creating a thread in the dev section.
Edit: thread is up.

A bit late, but just for the record, ElementalX is just like stock with added features. If you don't use those features, you are essentially using the stock kernel.
I am thinking about going this route.. but I am not sure the process to flash a custom kernel on my Pixel.. would anyone be able to walk me through it? thanks!
