we can't get logcat. It doesn't boot, i mean there are problems with kernel or init scripts or both. Kernel needs patches.

Always try to build kernel with source. I think you can't, but you can try.
Please edit the link in OP, its me who miswrote it... : /android_device_xioami_mocha --> /android_device_xiaomi_mocha
You need to fix up SELinux and the init scripts. Taking a shield tablet device tree, renaming things to mocha and changing the fstab isn't enough. As far as I can tell the shieldtablet device tree also has dependency on a shield common tree. There's also no value in creating a new thread each time you push new commits
Our kernel from Xiaomi is also pretty useless without commit history. The device tree is also from shield tablet, not Nexus 9.
We also have a tree for building TWRP with OmniROM that you can compile TWRP 3.0.2.0 with.
What kernel repo is upstream one for tegra android? Like CAF for quallcom.
I've tried to merge xiaomi changes on l4t kernel https://github.com/HighwayStar/android_kernel_xiaomi_mocha
Merged dts files and arch/boot/march-tegra with some required drivers, but still cant boot it. Found somewhere here that l4t kernels is not for android, but for GNU/Linux, but what kernel is for android?
Cyanogenmod's shield kernel?

I used rel-tn8-l-r7-shieldtablet8 to make a start on doing this. You could also use android_kernel_shield from CyanogenMod repo as it comes from the same place. But it will have a lot of extra commits for things not useful for mocha.

Untested, been doing device bring up. That kernel won't work yet anyway it's missing atmel, synaptic and battery firmware. (Plus the code that goes with it)
Some devs have one that gets to recovery but only 1 CPU core can come online and the CPU gets a bit hot. Unfortunately their commit history is hard to follow so I've not had a proper look at it yet
My my...it's been a while since I've seen a cringe-worthy dev thread on XDA. So OP just used the device tree from Nexus 9 (a 64-bit device with a different processor and nothing in common with the Mi Pad other than the fact that they use Nvidia SoCs and are both tablets), unmodified KITKAT kernel sources from Xiaomi (which takes work to make it boot, even on KK) and KITKAT userspace blobs to compile the ROM, and for some reason decided to share it without testing. The 10-post rule is meant to keep such people out of the development sub-forums, but obviously that's not working.
I do not understand why the moderators are allowing this thread to remain open. It's just a thread by a wannabe dev offering a non-bootable ROM that has the potential to brick the devices of many newbies who may decide to try this.
This thread is even more useless than the other "DEVS-ONLY" thread someone else made. Honestly, the entire Mi Pad forum is filled with people who either expect Android 7.1.1 to magically appear on their tabs just because Xiaomi released outdated kernel sources or just wanna create threads like this for the "thanks or whatever". The never ask for ETA rule seems to just float over their heads.
Now to some useful information. I believe, even if we patch the kernel enough for it to theoretically boot cm13, it probably won't, considering the outdated userspace blobs for the Mi Pad. Unless someone has the knowledge to take their tab apart and figure out how to get UART data, it will be virtually impossible for the mi pad kernel to boot any new version of Android. I heard another interesting approach taken by some russian devs at the Xiaomi forums. They've managed to port the kernel from the Nvidia shield (and apparently it's booting). Now this would mean we can use the userspace blobs from the Shield to at least get the ROM booting (most peripherals won't work, but that's step 2). I do not know whether they use GitHub or if they've even open-sourced their work, but now we know that it's possible, so that could be a possible method of approach.
EDIT: LOL. I just read the OP again. The "dev" expects donations to help him work harder. This from a person who posted his way into somehow compiling his first Android build without even having the damn device.

I agree, this device has no development threads. Only 2 give me thanks and here's my donation link threads.
They have indeed used GitHub, but I don't believe they want to share the repo just yet so I won't post it publicly. It has many problems to sort and also sadly, they didn't keep the commit history from Nvidia as it was initialised via zip DL. It does boot to recovery though.

Oh! I didn't realize we were talking about the same person/team. I'd love to start developing for this device. In fact, I'm working on KEXEC-hardboot and Multirom right now, but I'd like to follow what you guys are doing and contribute as much as I can. Is there an IRC channel/IM app you guys use for communication? If so, I'd appreciate it if you could PM the info.

I want to start this thread to keep up the progress on the port.
the bad news is that the SDK is incomplete for now, so (like other devices)
we will have to write our own code for the OS, the nook community
has done a wonderful job writing their own libraries and stuffs, so we will have to do the same.
Instead of pursuing different goals, let's focus on one thing at a time.
since GSM and CDMA versions are already out, it seems we suffer the same bugs, so for now let's unite strength and knowledge to overcome these.
I propose that the first goal to fix is the SurfaceFlinger, so we could at least see the apps, the buttons and the notifications.
it is currently throwing this:
04-06 22:01:35.495: ERROR/Surface(2960): dequeueBuffer failed (Out of memory)
this could lead us that it might coudln't start because of some malloc malfunction or something.
also that pvrsrvinit bugs me a lot.
update:
8/APR/2011
since DiP7 could fix SurfaceFlinger and other things using a different build from the GSM kernel, we have to dig deeper
======================================
CURRENT GOAL
Rebuild Kernel
======================================
Current approaches:
*none
Post any finding, guessing or anything, and please, please don't be afraid to ask anything you have a doubt, as a Dev you should not know everything, so we can help us each other

Mmmk.. Let me tell you a story.
A long time ago in a galaxy far away... No, that will take too long. In a nutshell, one third of the answer is here, another third is here and the rest is here. I'm not trying to be intentionally vague, I just haven't figured out how these three fit together yet.
Of course, there could also be some bit of code that I missed... some telling line in a debug log that I overlooked or some driver or library that I could have decompiled to sift through its juicy secrets. There could easily be a fix that would take seconds to add and make the whole thing fall in line...
Or we might have to work it from the ground up.
Either way it will happen. It's just a matter of whether it will happen next week, or next month.
(Watch it be a misplaced semi-colon, or a bad symlink... that's how these things go.)

The kernel source that you have linked to is 2.6.35.7 for the Nexus S gingerbread and is not fully maintained by samsung but rather by google.
However I do not think you are wrong that there is a problem somewhere in the kernel. The kernel that has been released for the galaxy tab is a mess of horrid code, I have had to re-write parts of kernel drivers just to get them to work under linux, I would not be surprised if similar patches are needed for honeycomb

Yes, and it contains some support for our device (s5pc110), and some more that can be added (pvr) and the architecture necessary to fully support HC without patching the build itself. If we work only towards patching the system build to communicate with the hardware, we won't be able to run AOSP hc versions when the source drops without going through the same painstaking process of hacking the system to function (while creating numerous faults causing FCs in the process). If we build a new kernel, we can get the hardware to communicate in the way future android versions want it to and we can then do what we want with ease.

I thought that linux throws a dump log when it makes a kernel panic specifying the memory address and the cause of crash
I thought of developing a kernel so that i can use it with my CM11 that im going to port shortly. I thought I'll compile the stock kernel from source itself. I use android pre-built tool chain (arm-eabi-4.6)
I get a lot of compiler errors on stock kernel without any modifications itself...
Do i need to change my tool chain?
Sent from my One V using XDA Free mobile app
I never tried to build the stock kernel, but I think they did it with the android 4.0 toolchain.
To run CM, you need a CM-Kernel. You have to port things from the stock or a custom kernel (like Hellboy by maxwen) to the cm11 kernel.
Try to use rastomanchiks kernel sources (https://github.com/rastomanchik/android_kernel_htc_primou). This kernel is mostly working, stable and has a good battery life now.
I'd also like to build cm11, but my download speed is to slow to download the sources.
Exactly. Even my download speed is slow. And i have a cap also. After 8GB, my download speed drastically decreases. It takes ages to sync the sources...

Actually I insist on porting myself so that I can learn building properly.
Actually these things are also interesting.. fixing bugs and all...
Have series of exams till May end. I cant build properly until then. I thought why not learn something..
Where did you learn about building and other stuff. Also I want to build the device tree on my own.
If you could specify some sources to learn, that would be grateful!

This is exactly the same point of view I had when I started some months ago
Sadly, there isn't much documentation about own device trees and own kernels out there.
There also is no reference device tree, so every dev does it in his own way. I'm always trying to have a clean, easy device tree and use the CM ones as a reference.
You can find some tutorials about building cm, but only with downloading a ready-to-use device config and kernel.
I just played around with it one or two weeks and learned the most.
If you have enough time, please at least try to get into this stuff, maybe we can get cm12 running.
You can reach me on irc in the channel #hov on freenode.

I have sufficient time only after May. Till then I'll have to do some research and learn the basics.
I saw on the CM wiki page, it says you can run a prebuilt kernel also... So would it work if we could tweak the stock kernel a bit?
And how do I apply patches to the kernel?

Yes you can use a prebuilt kernel, but it will only work if the kernel supports you cm version.
You apply patches to a kernel by changing files or directories in the kernel. For example you can use another fs module (maybe with more functions) by copy and pasting the folder for the module from another kernel. The problem is, the new module may require some functions your kernel does not have so it won't compile.

Try to get into it yourself or talk with people who know about kernel developement, I'm also new to android developement.
This release is only tested on the SM-T560NU USA (gtelwifiue).
This kernel is based on vince2678's port of LineageOS, with a couple of updates and optimizations.
This kernel has only been tested with vince's cm14.1 releases.
Flashable zips use a modified version of the AnyKernel2 system. While only tested on cm14.1, it may work on other ROMs, since it does not modify your initrd.
Very special thanks to vince2678.
Without his effort on this device, this release would not be possible.
Updates:
2017-06-10:
First build for CM14.1
Features:
DriveDroid Mass Storage and CD-ROM Support
Built with gcc-linaro-4.8-2015.06-x86_64_arm-eabi toolchain
Additional CPU optimizations
Updated CPU assembly optimizations
Various security patches
XPad (xbox 360 and xbox one) gamepad support
Known issues:
None
How to Install:
1. Download the latest release zip
2. Transfer zip to your device (or skip this step if sideloading)
3. Reboot into TWRP Recovery [Volume Up+Home] (If you need TWRP, first install mine or vince2678's.)
4a. Find the zip in the TWRP install browser, and install it
-OR-
4b. Sideload the zip using adb.
5. Reboot to system and enjoy
How much faster is it with the new optimizations?
Standard Kernel (click for full benchmark):
Noire Kernel (click for full benchmark):
What does "dirty" mean?
Whenever you modify a git repo and do not commit the changes, it will flag the kernel as "dirty".
Rather than forking the git repo, I use a clean copy of vince's repo, then apply my patches over it.
Because this isn't really how git was designed to be used, the build system sees it as "dirty".
It is nothing to worry about, as it is not harmful in any way.

https://files.persona.cc/zefie/files/cell/SM-T560NU/kernel/cm14.1
If/when there are more than one release, the most recent release should be on top, but verify the Last Modified date to be sure of the latest release.
Also be aware you will need to reflash anytime you update the main CM14.1 OS, as it will overwrite the kernel.
Bugs and issues
As vince's CM14.1 release is a rolling release, depending on many different sources, unexpected issues may come up in either the upstream code, his code, or my code.
Before submitting any reports to vince, be sure you are using his kernel (reflash the cm zip without flashing mine, preferably with a clean install)
Before submitting any reports to me, be sure the issue is not caused by the current release of CM14.1 (aka doesn't happen when you try the above).
No warranty is implied or provided. Be sure to have backups before flashing. But this is a no-brainer.
bump, because new release and target (was cm13, now cm14.1)
This kernel helped me to finally have USB OTG working by default, great job! :good:
Can you give us more detailed info about optimizations? Does your kernel have any impact on battery life?

I haven't tested thoroughly but they shouldn't.
The optimizations are some patches that update the arm assembly functions to use features available in our CPUs that were not previously used.
As well as compiling while telling the compiler that we are using a cortex-a53 (in armv7 mode) (by default it just compiled generic armv7 with old armv5/6 assembly).
In short, they aren't overclocks, just using more of the processor's full potential, which is already sitting there doing nothing. Therefore, it shouldn't have a huge impact on battery life.
The CPU patches are here: https://files.persona.cc/zefie/files/cell/SM-T560NU/kernel/common-source/cpu_opts.patch.xz
Fun fact: Our CPU is actually armv8 64-bit, but we can't use it because we depend on Samsung's proprietary binaries, which are compiled in 32-bit (armv7 mode)

Hey,
I'd like to Install this ROM, but obviously i get the message that it's not supported for my Device (in TWRP on flash attempt)
Mine is from the EU so, probably why..
Any chance to get this ROM to work for it?

No.
Unfortunately, Samsung made several hardware changes, including the CPU, when they brought this device to the USA.
You could almost think of the SM-T560NU as the "SM-T560 New".
It is a newer model with revamped hardware, and thus not compatible with ROMs made for the other.
Sorry.

Honestly none of my patches do anything USB related, except DriveDroid, but that lets the tablet be a device (by hosting disk images), not anything to do with connecting a device to it. Therefore, I cannot take the credit for that. Vince must have fixed it in his kernel. I built this with the latest code at the time, code that may have been more recent than the last lineage build of his that you tried.

I'll update it if there are any necessary updates for performance or security, or any issues are found, but for now it seems fairly stable and should be alright for a while.

Tnx for detailed answer. Btw, I tested your LOS 13 build and it's very smooth and battery life is great. Only issue I encountered so far is when charging offline, screen doesn't go off and there is no charging percents showed. Also, can you sync with the latest LIneage changes? Can you replace stock browser with the Jelly and stock camera with the Snap camera?

The thread for that is over here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3632745
Also, I am unable to reproduce the issue with the screen not shutting off. There is no percentage, but my screen shuts off while locked when charger is plugged in. Percentage and timeout can probably be configured in settings. I sync with Lineage every update. An update will come sometime this month with July's security patches.
As for replacing stock apps, I'll look into it. As the thread says, this is mostly for my use, hence why it wasn't publicly announced before. If I find the apps useful I will see about integration.
Wondering if this is still supported?

Should still work. I haven't messed with the SM-T560NU in a while. If I recall the Lineage build system was creating broken builds, I'm running 14.1-20171121-NIGHTLY-gtelwifiue and Noire Kernel still works with that.
As for newer builds, last time I tried (some time between xmas and new years), all of the more recent Lineage builds would not boot, with or without my kernel. If trying newer Lineage NIGHTLYs, try without my kernel first, then try with if it does boot.
Vince has kinda abandoned the SM-T560NU, although I'm not sure it is a fair reason to abandon us, because we didn't test on a completely different device, but his choice is his alone, and as such, without him working on Lineage, the newer builds are likely to stay broken unless either he comes back to fix it, or someone else takes over (don't look at me).

And where, exactly, is the tutorial for that? It's not officially supported by Sony yet.
I think I read somewhere that you can select the XZ Premium on the list and follow the steps. Once a DRM backup is available, I may try doing that. By then, the actual XZ1C may already be on the list.

I've setup initial repositories, yoshino and lilac. yoshino is a common base shared between devices and I have a Kernel tree over the latest msm-4.0 kernel tree and already compiled it after fixing a log of build issues. I will create repositories in the next days and upload the sources once I have a recovery.

There was no Kernel release for msm8998 in kernel-copyleft, so I took the msm-4.4 Kernel tree and the tarball they dropped. I've fixed several bugs in the Kernel, I always wonder how the Smartphone manufacturers get their stuff compiled.
You can find the kernel source tree here: https://github.com/cryptomilk/android_kernel_sony_msm8998
I've also added exfat support already.
I've looked at the device repo for their AOSP trees, but started a yoshino and lilac device tree from scratch. I prefer clean repositories. I will push them in the next days, I did quite some cleanup today.
I haven't ordered the device yet. Need to wait till next week, I just came back from a long vacation

Why the copyleft archive? It doesn't look like they've touched it since April while they touched the regular one 2 hours ago.
I had no issues compiling and running the kernel from https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel, though that was integrated with their entire AOSP tree, which seems to package its own versions of gcc and clang. Perhaps LineageOS includes different prebuilt compilers and that's why you see issues.
Really curious to see how LOS runs though. AOSP has some annoying performance issues and crashes.

I've just tried to build the aosp/LA.UM.5.7.r1 tree from the sony kernel repo. This one has a lot of compiler errors which need fixing first. However for me it looks like that the msm-4.4 tree is much cleaner in this regard so maybe also more advanced.

This may be true but it's also the repo where the most work is done. We should at least pay attention to it in case they commit fixes that are useful.
Also probably getting ahead of myself but I wonder if we can merge EAS... It's in AOSP's common kernel, is it around in LOS anywhere yet?

You get the errors with -Wmaybe-uninitialized which is a relatively new gcc feature. The Sony 'kernel' repo is their Proof of Concept repository. Yes, sure they are working on it it makes totally sense to try things out there first!

What is Umbrella?
Umbrella is a project that aims to make the kernel sources that HMD released for Nokia 8 Sirocco (A1N) compatible with the Nokia 8 (NB1). The idea behind this is to replace the outdated 8.0 kernel sources that HMD released for NB1 with more up to date ones that are used in the 9.0 builds for Nokia 8 Sirocco.
Why do this, you might ask. Well, the answer is simple: The devices are so similar that HMD / FIH already have their kernel sources in a shared source tree. You can validate that yourself, by downloading the kernel config from a stock NB1 kernel (under /proc/config.gz), unpacking it, and searching for the commended entry "CONFIG_FIH_A1N". What umbrella does is take the sources that were released for A1N, readd all device specific files for NB1 (they were pruned) from it's original kernel soure, and integrate the stock kernel config (also called defconf) from NB1.
Doing this also lead to some other small quality of life improvements that are not directly relevant to an end user.
Umbrella contains the latest changes from linux-stable (v4.4.179 at the time of writing, compared to the stock v4.4.153), and Qualcomms Codeaurora upstream
The WiFi driver from Qualcomm is compiled directly into the kernel, instead of being loaded as a module. This allows you to flash umbrella based kernels to every build version while keeping everything else working correctly. The stock kernels use signature enforcement, which means that the wifi module that is loaded from the system partition has to be signed against the kernel, which is not the case for every custom kernel or even the kernels that were built for a different security patch.
Unlike the officially released kernel sources, umbrella does not have stupid typos in it's device trees that cause the phone to display white bars on all of your screen etc.
Umbrella disables the block that FIH put in place to prevent users from rebooting into EDL mode from within android (using adb reboot edl).
Umbrella also includes a patch that causes the device to not reset it's entire memory when the kernel crashes, therefore retaining the last kernel output log, which can be used for debugging
You can compile the kernel with compilers newer than GCC 4.9 (not clang though), without having it immideately crash at boot.
It includes a tool that automatically sets up a crosscompiling environment for the kernel.
What Umbrella is not
Umbrella is not a project to add significant new features, or the ability to tweak things beyond what the stock kernel already offers (which is technically not that bad). It aims to be a reference kernel, a base for (potentially) other kernels that are based on it and add those features. I know that that is kind of a broad goal, considering I am the only one who seems to do actual development for this phone, but who knows. Having a lower entry level might help in case someone is curious and wants to get into kernel hacking. And I would certainly be happy if I wasn't the only one developing for this device.
If you want Umbrella to contain features like:
Overclocking
More governors / schedulers / whatever
Color / Sound / whatever control
Wakelock blocking
etc. etc. etc.
then please Alt-F4 your browser right now. Ok, don't do that but at least please don't request it because it will make you get ignored, nothing else.
Why the name Umbrella?
While I developed the initial prototype I watched through 3 Resident Evil movies, and this is kinda a zombie project, so I think the name fits quite well.
Why are you posting this?
I am posting this because I am hoping that it will be useful for anyone that would like to get into kernel development and tweaking without the hassle that comes with setting up the kernel sources that are released by HMD.
But, one disclaimer: I am not a kernel developer. I am a curious CS student suffering from a bad mix of too much time and stupid ideas that solve stupid problems. I am trying my best to produce something useful and be of help, but please don't expect wonders from me, thanks.

As I described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8/development/official-source-code-releases-nokia-8-t3930324, they are identical. The only difference are the device tree files (which still contain typos that break the display), and of course all modifications I made to the sirocco kernel source that Umbrella is based on (wifi driver, EDL mode reactivation, upstreaming, etc.)
