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
LD net/bluetooth/built-in.o
arm-eabi-ld: error: cannot open net/bluetooth/bluetooth.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: [net/bluetooth/built-in.o] Error 1
CC net/bridge/br_input.o
Heres another example:
Code:
CC net/bridge/br_ioctl.o
arch/arm/mach-msm/board-8974-sec.c:569:13: warning: 'modem_power_off' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
error, forbidden warning: board-8974-sec.c:569
make[1]: [arch/arm/mach-msm/board-8974-sec.o] Error 1

CC drivers/gpu/ion/ion_cma_heap.o
arm-eabi-ld: error: cannot open arch/arm/mach-msm/bam_dmux.o: No such file or directory
arm-eabi-ld: error: cannot open arch/arm/mach-msm/board-8974-sec.o: No such file or directory
System information:
I attached my .config file. It is the default from the Compulsion kernel.
Compile commands (in order):
Code:
export VARIANT_DEFCONFIG=msm8974_sec_defconfig ##I added this because it wont generate .config if this variable is empty...
export ARCH=arm
export SUBARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/julian/android-toolchain-eabi/bin/arm-eabi-
git pull
make clean
make msm8974_sec_defconfig
make -j4
Operating system: Fresh install of Linux Mint 16 (Petra)
Build-related packages I installed with apt: git-core, gnupg, flex, bison, gperf, libsdl-dev, libesd0-dev, libwxgtk2.6-dev, build-essential, zip, curl, libncurses5-dev, zlib1g-dev, ia32-libs, lib32z1-dev, lib32ncurses5-dev, gcc-multilib, g++-multilib, and Adb
Toolchain:
Tried linaro, the android NDK from Google's website, and various other toolchains. Same error.
Output of "echo $PATH"
Code:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/julian/android-toolchain-eabi/bin:/home/julian/androidkernel/N900T_Kernel
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:
arch/arm/mach-msm/bam_dmux.c: In function 'show_waketime':
arch/arm/mach-msm/bam_dmux.c:2440:29: warning: argument to 'sizeof' in 'snprintf' call is the same expression as the destination; did you mean to provide an explicit length? [-Wsizeof-pointer-memaccess]
error, forbidden warning: bam_dmux.c:2440

Here's the layout of my toolchains folder and my broken build file (looks like yours)
Code:

ar c++ gcc ld.bfd ld.mcld objcopy ranlib
as g++ ld ld.gold nm objdump strip
Broken Make file edit:
Code:
CROSS_COMPILE ?= /Volumes/android/ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/darwin-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-
Change to 4.6 for new compile error:
Code:
CROSS_COMPILE ?= /Volumes/android/ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/darwin-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-
Made is a helluva lot father in the compilation process, but still won't compile correctly.
Code:
net/netfilter/xt_TCPMSS.c:50:8: warning: 'struct xt_tcpmss_info' declared inside parameter list [enabled by default]

Got my NDK from here:
Code:
http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r9c-darwin-x86_64.tar.bz2
I don't, yet, understand the differences between the versions. Not sure if this will be helpful, samsungs open source community page sure isn't very friendly.

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]

make[2]: *** [drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_interactive.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/cpufreq] 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.

Hello guys,
this my first post and I want to share how to fix the error when compiling a kernel 3.10.x with the CONFIG_MODULES enabled
the error that comes up is something like
...
LD drivers/staging/qcacld-2.0/wlan.o
LD drivers/staging/qcacld-2.0/built-in.o
LD drivers/staging/built-in.o
Makefile:822: recipe for target 'drivers' failed
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
compiling twice without cleaning you got the entire error
drivers/usb/phy/class-dual-role.c:91:1: error: expected ',' or ';' before 'int'
int dual_role_get_property(struct dual_role_phy_instance *dual_role,

make[1]: *** [drivers/usb] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
Makefile:822: recipe for target 'drivers' failed
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
that is a syntax error, pretty easy to fix:
- open the file drivers/usb/phy/class-dual-role.c within a text editor
- go to line 90
this:
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dual_role_get_property)
should be
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dual_role_get_property);
the error was a missing ";" in the end of that line
I hope I have been helpful for the all the developers and compilers who want to enable "the loadable module support"
cheers
thank you
WOW!!! Thank you
