Help needed compiling the kernel

So... I download the kernel source from HTC (http://developer.htc.com) and I found this blog that got me started on compiling it...
http://blog.coralic.nl/2009/10/25/how-to-compile-the-htc-hero-kernel/comment-page-1/#comment-42
Well, at first attempt, I got an error that make couldn't find the rule to make projector.o. Well, I went through the .config and changed that option to No...
Then, it gets all the way to where it looks like it's going to make vmlinux1 and it errors out with the message "arm-eabi-ld: no machine record defined .... make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1"
Has anybody successfully compiled the source yet?

Try "make msm7200a_defconfig" before compiling, do not pull config.gz.

That was a very good starting point...
It all comes down to these two lines
On the config from my phone it says
Code:
# CONFIG_ARCH_MSM7200A is not set
CONFIG_ARCH_MSM75010A=y
on msm7200a_defconfig, it has
Code:
CONFIG_ARCH_MSM7200A=y
# CONFIG_ARCH_MSM75010A is not set
Also, msm7200a_defconfig has these two extra lines that don't exist at all in my config
Code:
CONFIG_MACH_SAPPHIRE=y
CONFIG_MACH_HERO=y
That wouldn't be too big a problem, but my config has
Code:
# CONFIG MSM_AMSS_SUPPORT_256MB_EBI1 is not set
and msm7200a_defconfig has
Code:
CONFIG_MSM_AMSS_SUPPORT_256MB_EBI1=y
and without that set, SAPPHIRE.o won't compile because an integer is long instead of unsigned....
Any idea how I can figure out the correct file to fix for the CONFIG_ARCH_MSM75010A? I looked in /arch/arm/Makefile, and it says ARCH_MSM7XXXX points to msm, and I look in /arch/arm/msm/Makefile, and don't see anything referencing either MSM7200A or MSM75010A, but 7200A has to be someplace

Standard config pulled from running 1.5 should compile just fine.
Done it countless times myself.
What version of the toolchain are you running?

The error your getting is usually due to a incomplete machine specification for the linker.
Try and checkout the prebuilt stuff again from AOSP, it's possibly corrupted.
Mine is master branch, synced yesterday.

TUN.KO for the my touch 4g (here it is with links) updated 12/24/10

I have gotten every thing to work except the routing issue which is weird because I had it working fine and everything so I don't know. You need to make sure that you have root and that you have busy box installed and set up correctly install in
Install busybox in /system/xbin
openvpn install /system/xbin/openvpn
/sdcard/openvpn goes the client config files what ever they are for your cisco or watchgaurd vpn .vpn or.ovpn file
make sure the tun.ko is in /system/lib/modules
I don't have time to make a complete walk through I will answer any questions though as soon as I get a chance because its pissed me off when I was doing this when people just stopped helping me.
I want to thank satash for the help he isnt on this forum but he was a big help with seting up the devolopment envioment when this post kept getting moved around for stupid reasons.

Yes, bu there is no actually files being developed. If there was something like try this file and it fixes something, then yes it's development

Well the point of this thread is that once i get a respose and figure it out I was going put a link to the compiled tun.ko in this thread

No one??? come on I would think this would be a standard developer question

probably would be better if this was in the development section... you might get a few more responses..

Check your path.
try adding CROSS_COMPILE=/absolute_path_to_arm_compiler/bin/arm-eabi-
before your make command (i.e.)
CROSS_COMPILE=/home/me/android/ndk/bin/arm-eabi- make

Whosdaman followed XDA policy with regards to Development sections. Once you have compiled code ready to go, we can either move this thread back or you can create a new thread.

that didnt work for me and Actually i accedently ended up nukeing my ubuntu install so I am installing it again ill let you know how it goes second time around

Im starting to feel really stupid i set the environment variables and it doesnt work same error every time i dont get it. I tried to find your post but I couldnt find it Im sorry im really trying to figure this out its kicking my ass. any ideas???
I have tried to set the path as a absolute path as well.

I'm working on compiling this myself. Getting my environment setup right now.
but shouldn't it be EXTRAVERSION= .21-g899d047
(in your original compiled tun.ko)
Seems that would be the obvious point of failure based on what I know and based on the error I'm getting when I insmod your compiled tun.ko
I should know more in a couple of hours.

Question, what is this? Just curious

It is needed for using OpenVPN

Thanks, appreciate it

Ok may not get to test compile tonight. Taking me a little longer than I thought to get setup. I just switched to a new install of Snow leopard.

I dont think so cause I got it all working I had it working except wifi then I redid it to get wifi working and now im haveing problems with Open vpn FATAL:ifconfig faild to exicute external command. No but I had it working and I logged in to my watchgaurd vpn over lunch today I was so dam happy now I can't Get the dam thing to work I have more notes and guides and scripts you have Pm me if anyone has problems Also I recompiled both of those So ill have to repost them tomorow so ill let you know if I get it 100% tonight

[Sprint] Kernel Development - OC

Okay I've been reading and reading and finally got all the tools to build a kernel from the source that Samsung had on their site for DJ30. Since these are very identical to the other galaxy s devices they should overclock decently. Will report with more progress later.

Interested in your development... my Sprint Tab arrives tomorrow, decided to give it a 30 day try before I try the Nook Color.
Doesn't appear to be a lot of development yet, hoping to see that change.
One question, is the Zroot method still the preferred method to rooting the device?

I'm not a dev, but I sure can test on my sprint tablet

I have a Linux blade at home, what are the tools necessary to compile from source, and what repo are you using for the sprint tab drivers and such?

Simple solution here is that you are missing GCC or have an incorrect version installed. I wrote a how to compile thread in the Streak section a few months bak ill dig it up and post it here.
try
apt-get install build-essential

Already installed build essential.

The readme file tells you where to get the compiler from, decompress it to /opt/toolchain.
And this thread has pretty good explanations on how to build the kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837170

It's pretty obvious from that line that it can't find that particular binary in your toolchain directory...
I followed the instructions in the readme file and compiled the kernel already, it was extremely simple. You ran the build_kernel.sh file right... after editing it?

Yes I did and its been 5 years since I've done anything with Linux so its a rather learning curve to get anything done. With lack of development on tab thought it would be a good place to start. I've done normal kernel build before but nothing for a phone and it wasn't rather hard either it was just a few commands and everything was already in the right directories
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App

FYI I grabbed the kernel source and cross toolchain, installed the toolchain to /opt (on my desktop Linux box) added the toolchain's bin directory to the start of $PATH, edited the (iirc - am posting from a Windows box) build.sh script and the kernel built fine first time.
I need to set the path to the raminitfs file in .config and then try again and make sure it boots ok
Anyway just a post to say that it must be your setup. I see you have installed the toolchain to /home/max/GalaxyTab/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/ and in your latest post there's the following error: make[1]: /opt/toolchains/arm-2009q3/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: Command not found
So there's obviously a path problem there. I also see you're using a plain "make" command without setting the ARCH env var.
I'd recommend giving the build.sh script a go (after editing the toolchain path), as it sets up all the env vars, etc., for you automatically.

okay, I was missing a file went I was doing my repo sync... which didn't make sense but i got it worked out... finally able to compile going to apply the patches and recompile and will repo, but thanks for the people who did help figure out the issue...

Does anyone have an untouched sprint kernel pulled from a device? I rooted mine and it's seeminly impossible to pull the initrd out of it.

Nevermind, I got it... I have a booting Sprint kernel that works great.
Do you have a link to the patches you want to include, I may be able to get the CPU frequency adjustments you want to make built.

Currently there are 2 files that tell the kernel the freq to run at, and 3 spots at the bottom of each that need changed. Located in /ARM/ARCH/OMAP something I need to get more info when I get home I'll edit this post and let you know but there is a file called cpu24xx.c and cpu34xx.c, I was going to compile a working kernel with those files edited to run 1200MHz to test and see if that would work if that didn't work there were some patches made on the other galaxy s devices I have links to thanks to SetiroN for providing, which they are a little different then the files for the galaxy source but I'll post it when I get home and have time!

help rebuilding/install CM10 kernel (I get a bootloop)

has anyone here rebuilt the CM10 nightly kernel before? I am trying to rebuild it and install it myself (which I've done on many other devices), but for some reason after installing my kernel I'm getting stuck in a bootloop.
I have a SGS3 AT&T, but from what I've read all US versions use a unified kernel. By digging through the Cyanogenmod github repositories, I found that this is the CM10 kernel:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_d2
The kernel configuration that it ends up using is: cyanogen_d2_defconfig ... so to build the kernel I do:
Code:
make ARCH=arm clean
make ARCH=arm cyanogen_d2_defconfig
make -j2 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
Now, I need to create boot.img and pack the ramdisk. I extracted the ramdisk from one of the CM10 nightlies, and I do:
Code:
./mkbootfs ramdisk | gzip > ramdisk.gz
cp arch/arm/boot/zImage .
./mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk ramdisk.gz --cmdline "androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31" -o boot.img --base 0x80200000 --pagesize 2048
I got the command line using unpackbootimg:
Code:
$ ../unpackbootimg -i boot.img
BOARD_KERNEL_CMDLINE androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31
BOARD_KERNEL_BASE 80200000
BOARD_PAGE_SIZE 2048
Finally, I took the updater script from this kernel, replacing its boot.img with my boot.img, as well as placing my kernel modules in system/lib/modules. In the end, I have no created the following update zip file to flash in CWM. Feel free to download it and verify the updater script, however here is the updater code:
Code:
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p14", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/cache/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/cache/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7"),
delete("/cache/boot.img"));
show_progress(0.100000, 0);
But like I said, whenever I go to install this kernel it just gives me a bootloop, so something doesn't seem right. I get no errors/warnings when building the kernel, I extracted the ramdisk correctly... can anyone pick out something I'm missing? maybe mkbootimg?
Thanks!

Why do you need to do this?

because I'm creating a custom kernel, and I figured before I modified it I would just try a simple rebuild...

Look at my repo and match up everything or just use it whole and create the folders for Package and Ramdisk that it wants, then replace the toolchain/cross_compile that I use with the path of yours.
Build script:
https://github.com/ktoonsez/KT747-JB/blob/jellybean/build_d2att_aosp.sh
Alos replace your existing "mkbootfs" and "mkbootimg" files with mine.

thanks a bunch for the pointer to your scripts! I am now using your mkbootfs and mkbootimg, and I also noticed that you included the following in your mkbootimg, which I didn't:
Code:
--ramdiskaddr 0x81500000
So, I added this and now I actually boot but my screen is not working I get the Samsung logo, then the Samsung Galaxy SIII boot screen, then my screen never turns on. I am able to grab dmesg and logcat now though, so I am digging through to narrow down the problem as I continue to go through your scripts!

if I don't want to overclock with my kernel, can I skip including 00post-init.sh which runs these commands:
Code:
#Set governor items
echo 384000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq;
echo 1512000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq;
echo 1512000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq;
echo $(date) END of post-init.sh

I was trying to jump on the bandwagon and build KT747 but I encounter the following errors:
Code:
/home/trevor/programming/android/linaro4.7/bin/arm-eabi-ld: error: arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.gzip.o: unknown CPU architecture
/home/trevor/programming/android/linaro4.7/bin/arm-eabi-ld: error: arch/arm/boot/compressed/lib1funcs.o: unknown CPU architecture
/home/trevor/programming/android/linaro4.7/bin/arm-eabi-ld: error: arch/arm/boot/compressed/ashldi3.o: unknown CPU architecture
Anyone know why this is happening? I am using GCC 4.7 and the appropriate toolchain. More detailed log: http://pastebin.com/Kb3PWYtq

so I am still having issues where my phone goes through the entire boot process, but my screen does not re-activate after the Samsung Galaxy SIII logo. So I never end up seeing the Cyanogen animation.
Here are relevant logs:
No screen logcat: http://pastebin.com/W4v6Xk9g
No screen dmesg: http://pastebin.com/ydGtj216
With screen logcat: http://pastebin.com/DjENx2gE
With screen dmesg: http://pastebin.com/f3sAzjZa
The "with screen" cases are using the prebuilt CM10 nightlies

thanks! So, in another thread ktoonsez said to use the :June 2012 build. That one seems to be from September. Here is the June link:

Try replacing your arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile with this http://pastebin.com/J0m6ka26
It compiles successfully now :good:

Thanks bud! I'm having one last error, not sure if it was an issue with your paste:
Code:
/home/owner/Documents/android-wmon/core/KT747-JB/arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile:112: *** missing separator. Stop.
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 2
Here is the relevant part of the Makefile:
Code:
$(addprefix $(obj)/,$(libfdt) $(libfdt_hdrs)): $(obj)/%: $(srctree)/scripts/dtc/libfdt/%
$(call cmd,shipped) <----- this is line 112
The odd thing is that this exists in the original Makefile unmodified
----
EDIT: Sorry! I got this working now, it was an issue with tabs/spaces from copying and pasting

I believe that is caused by wrong indentation. Did you copy the code from the webpage? My browser (Chrome) copies the tabs as spaces. Try downloading the paste and flat out replace the file with it.
I copied the META-INF folder out of a KT747 zip to my build and according to TWRP it flashes successfully. Now we are on the same page with the boot loop.

Thanks a bunch! I got it to build successfully.
I'm officially dumbfounded. I no longer get the bootloop in either one of my kernels (stock CM10 or the KT747 rebuild), but in both cases my phone boots without the display working. I have NO clue why my display doesn't work when I rebuild these kernels.
Let me help you get your bootloop fixed though first... then I'm curious if your screen will work.
I think what was causing my bootloop was a lack of this parameter when using mkbootfs:
Code:
--ramdiskaddr 0x81500000
However, if you're using ktoosez script, that should already be included. Also, make sure to clear your cache, dalvik, and fix permissions.

also, come to #cyanogenmod on irc.freenode.net, we might be able to work through this more quickly there

finalllyyyyy i have a display working! Apparently I was using too old of a version of userspace that did not match with my kernel. So my nightly was too old with the kernel rebuilds I was using. Let me know if you still have issues.

Can't compile Galaxy Note 3 Kernel

I am kinda new to kernel development. I need to rebuild the kernel I'm using ((http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2480353) Compulsion Kernel) with loadable module support. I have also tried other kernels. I also tried using the "-i" flag on make, but the errors kept getting worse, until the whole compilation output was errors...
I keep getting errors from the console output. For example:
Code:
net/bluetooth/hci_conn.c: In function 'hci_le_ltk_reply':
net/bluetooth/hci_conn.c:406:28: warning: argument to 'sizeof' in 'memcpy' call is the same pointer type '__u8 *' as the destination; expected '__u8' or an explicit length [-Wsizeof-pointer-memaccess]
error, forbidden warning: hci_conn.c:406
make[2]: [net/bluetooth/hci_conn.o] Error 1
-Wsizeof-pointer-memaccess errors pop up very often.
There are also file not found errors:
Code:
arm-eabi-ld: error: cannot open net/bluetooth/hci_conn.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: [net/bluetooth/bluetooth.o] Error 1

arm-eabi-ld: error: cannot open net/bluetooth/bluetooth.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: [net/bluetooth/built-in.o] Error 1

Heres another example:
Code:

System information:
I attached my .config file. It is the default from the Compulsion kernel.

Toolchain:
Tried linaro, the android NDK from Google's website, and various other toolchains. Same error.

I think thats all the needed information
Thank you!

Your command for the configuration is incomplete. You need to type a command for the other files as well. Type this command "make msm8974_sec_defconfig VARIANT_DEFCONFIG=msm8974_sec_hltetmo_defconfig DEBUG_DEFCONFIG= SELINUX_DEFCONFIG=selinux_defconfig SELINUX_LOG_DEFCONFIG=selinux_log_defconfig TIMA_DEFCONFIG=tima_defconfig".

Ok so I was messing around and decided to fix the -Wsizeof-pointer-memaccess errors. I opened bam_dmux.c and changed the line
Code:
return snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%u\n", wakelock_timeout);
to
Code:
return snprintf(buf, (int)sizeof(buf), "%u\n", wakelock_timeout);
The kernel compiles now, but when I flash it to my device (mkbootimg), I get a ODIN message saying regular boot failed...
MORE UPDATES:
Tried flashing plain zImage in tar with ODIN, got a "unsupport dev_type" error on the device.
I fixed all the compile errors. I changed cross compilers to arm linux gnueabihf 4.7. There is still the task of getting the kernel on the device though... Thanks in advance!
EDIT AGAIN: Still can't get it to boot. Tried compiling stock kernel, leankernel, and Saber kernel. All same result after packing zImage and flashing with flashable zip...
Using repack-zImage.sh, I get a "gunzip result is oscillating between 'too small' and 'too large' at size: 7836575 7836576 7836577 7836578" error. There are no compile errors with any of the kernels. I attached my "finished" stock kernel flashable zip (doesn't work). I heard something about a mismatch between gzip and lzop... *feeling determined*

Any ideas?
EDIT:
Compile warnings about swp{b} although swp emulation is enabled in config. I still can't figure out how to get the zImage to work correctly on my device. I swapped the zImage out of the Saber kernel install zip boot.img and put my own in, flashed with TWRP, device doesn't boot until I go back and install the original kernel.

Please ignore if irrelevant or ignorant. I'm in my infancy and still grasping the basics.
My environment is quite different than yours, on a Mac and using a Sprint note 3, but I came across this thread with the same compiler error using the 4.8 tools in the NDK. If I use 4.6 gcc I make it pretty far into the compilation process before error (failing @net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c). However, using 4.8 gave me the same error as you:
Code:

Using repack-zImage.sh, I get a "gunzip result is oscillating between 'too small' and 'too large' at size: 7836575 7836576 7836577 7836578" error. There are no compile errors with any of the kernels. I attached my "finished" stock kernel flashable zip (doesn't work). I heard something about a mismatch between gzip and lzop... *feeling determined*

I dunno if it is still relevant to you, but in your code change this
Code:
return snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%u\n", wakelock_timeout);
to this
Code:
return snprintf(buf, sizeof([COLOR="Red"]*[/COLOR]buf), "%u\n", wakelock_timeout);
Do that for all the files you get error in.
This error is because the toolchain you are using is higher version than GCC 4.8.*
Use any lower GCC version toolchain and those changes are not needed.
If you want the newer cross compiler, You need to make the cnanges. I hope this helps...
Cheers!!!

I did the same thing; i.e. I added (int) to the line also. The compiler seems to be ok with it, but I have not installed it on a device yet. I actually see a number of these errors. Do you think there should be another fix for it perhaps? Did you findout anything else about this? I appreciate a reply.

Yeah there is another fix. You add flags to your makefile for the cross cimpiler to basically accept those. Since they are not errors. Than you can use any chain. I managed to compile on sabermod 4.10 a kernel for s5, which was giving me the same trouble. Once I upload my sources I will send you a link to the repo so you can tweak your makefile accordingly ?

Thanks. The latest message I get is the following:
Code:
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_interactive.c: In function 'show_target_loads':
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_interactive.c:813:6: warning: operation on 'ret' may be undefined [-Wsequence-point]
error, forbidden warning: cpufreq_interactive.c:813
make[2]: *** [drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_interactive.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/cpufreq] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
But this one is a warning also. I guess there is a flag for ignoring warning(s)? I'll wait to hear back from you.

@daxgirl - I like to learn how to modify the flags. Did you find out which flags to modify by reading the Makefile documentation? I would really appreciate it if you tell me how I can learn which flags to modify and do it myself vs. copy your Makefile.
