[Q] Build wpa_supplicant with tiwlan0 driver? - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I just tried applying the patch to address Android issue 8804 (no link because I'm a new user and don't have permission to include it, but it's in the Google code issue tracker for Android) to the stock froyo-release branch from git and recompiled wpa_supplicant using the following command line:
mm WPA_SUPPLICANT_VERSION=VER_0_6_X WPA_BUILD_SUPPLICANT=true
However, after building this and copying over the resulting wpa_supplicant binary, I found that wifi on my Droid 2 no longer worked. It appears the issue is that only wext driver support was compiled in:
$ ./wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant v0.6.10
...snipped...
drivers:
wext = Linux wireless extensions (generic)
options:
...snipped...
The stock version shows wext and tiwlan0 drivers:
$ ./wpa_supplicant.stock_droid2
wpa_supplicant v0.6.10
...snipped...
drivers:
wext = Linux wireless extensions (generic)
tiwlan0 = TI Station Driver (1271)
options:
...snipped...
I don't see the tiwlan0 driver in the source tree or as a configuration option. I'm suspecting that TI has not made it available or else someone else would likely have created a patched wpa_supplicant already.
Is it possible to build a patched version of wpa_supplicant that includes the tiwlan0 driver?

Any news it this subject - of tiwilan0 driver to wpa_supplicant? (same situation is on Archos gen8 devices...)

DroidX source posted! tun.ko should be possible now

Sources are here:
opensource.motorola.com/sf/frs/do/viewRelease/projects.droidx/frs.droidx_source.shado_x3_1_13_5_10
Hopefully I'll get some time to work on tun.ko for openvpn or vpnc.
But if someone beats me to it, please post it here.

Downloading the source and pre-req's now. Will work on the tun.ko when I get back from dinner if no one else has it done.
Droid X source code! What!? Does this mean a bright future could be ahead for us?

Hi Drew,
Did you have any luck with tun.ko?
Thanks & all the best!
You can click in the bottom right of that that link and download all the files in one zip. SHADO_X3_1.13.5.10.zip is around 275MB.
I have unzipped that, then untarred all the individual archives.
According to the README, you need some files from source.android.com, but their link doesn't work, so that will take some more digging. (maybe I missed something...)
It appears to be the complete build process. I was just hoping to jump in and get a tun.ko modules compiled, but I still can't find the kernel config (I was just quickly looking around).
Anyway, bottom line is that I will have to get up to speed on the android build process, not just the cross compiled kernel process. This will take me some more time.
If anyone gets one before me, please post.
Thanks, Jeb
Anyone had any luck yet?

hmmm... I think that you should be able to compile the kernel with the default config options, but just enable the tun/tap module... I don't think that the module would really depend too heavily on any of the other config options?
I have compiled the module multiple times with multiple config files but none work. I get a exec failed error which is presumably because i compiled for the wrong architecture.
I have tried all the omap3 configs i found and the defconfig with no luck. I am away today but will look at it again tomorrow.

I'm no droid expert but it looks like according to the droid readme file you want ARM arch, but the compiler that youo should be using is arm-eabi-gcc (comes from the prebuilt tools from android) - in the Makefile set CROSS_COMPILE to /path/to/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- (or whatever the path to the file is on your build environment)
All the best,
Okay, after a bunch of hours I finally got it compiled
The 'exec format error' that you were probably seeing is not because it was compiled for the wrong architecture. I originally compiled the kernel modules with the default .config file that 'make menuconfig' generated.
When I tried to load it, I got the 'exec format error'. 'dmesg' showed:
<3>[46706.378570] tun: version magic '2.6.29 mod_unload modversions ARMv5 ' should be '2.6.29 preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
So, that gave me a big hint - after a few hours of customizing I finally got the .config file to a version that will properly compile and load the openvpn module.
I'm attaching the .config file (config.zip) and tun.ko file (tun.ko.zip)
*NOTE* - I have not tested the kernel module yet, so I have no idea if it works. Even if it does work, the .config file is the default one that I manipulated so that the tun module would compile. You probably don't want to use the .config file as it may not match all of the hardware and configs of the droid x. If someone has the actual droid x .config file used by motorola then that would be very helpful.
*update* - the attacked files *do not work*. The working version is available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7417520
Hmm... it looks like tun.ko does compile and install, but is not working properly
# lsmod
tun 11392 0 - Live 0xbf00c000
sec 4808 0 - Live 0xbf000000
# cat /dev/net/tun
/dev/net/tun: No such device
#
The response should be 'cat: /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state'
If we only had the .config file from motorola this would be a lot easier.

I'll post on Motodev board for the running .config (they should have left it in the running kernel at /prog/config.gz ...)
Anyway, thanks trying -- could you post any tips on getting a dev env setup?
I've been using linux for years, but this is my first android setup.

I'm in the same boat as you - android newbie, linux veteran.
I started out by getting the whole android environment - http://source.android.com/source/download.html - and ran 'repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git' - all of that was just so I could get the prebuilt directory with the arm-eabi- files that will be used below.
Then I just downloaded the entire project from opensource.motorola.com - extracted it all, went into the kernel directory and hacked away at the .config file from there.
To compile the kernel I ran:
CROSS_COMPILE=/home/MY_USERNAME/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- make -j 4 kernel
CROSS_COMPILE=/home/MY_USERNAME/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- make modules
I spent a few hours with it - playing around with environment variables and modifying some Makefiles so I may have left out a small thing or two
It looks like running 'make mapphone_defconfig' created a functioning .config file and I used that to generate tun.ko.
I've posted the files at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7417520

[Q] [KERNEL] ARMv6 vs ARMv7 cross-compile question / tun.ko for LG Revo

hello all -- ive mostly been a lurker (been too busy), but i finally found some time to try and get the ipsec vpn working on my stock-but-rooted LG Revo. despite some ardent googling, i couldn't find a working tun.ko that would work with vpc/VPN Connections. so i decided to compile my own.
i figure since there's certainly nothing in the LG Revo boards here specific to compiling tun.ko for the LG Revo, i'd start this thread and document my steps along the way. i figure other board users can use for reference etc. hope it's ok mods/admins!
the short version/TL;DR:
i have compiled my own tun.ko for my stock/rooted LG Revolution. i have the correct kernel version (etc) but am stuck because i dont seem to be able to compile ARMv7, only ARMv6. this is the error i receive when i try to insmod:
Code:
tun: version magic '2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
basically i need to compile it for ARMv7 not ARMv6. i don't know how.
the long version, aka the steps i took:
starting in a nice clean folder, download the linux kernel src specific to the version of the kernel on my rooted stock LG Revo. i obtained this earlier (you can check via Settings -> About Phone -> Kernel version. if you have a stock (rooted or not) LG Revolution it will be: 2.6.32.9-perf.
Code:
$ mkdir -p $HOME/tmp/lgrevosrc
$ export LGREVOSRC=$HOME/tmp/lgrevosrc
$ cd $LGREVOSRC
$ wget -q http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.32.9.tar.bz2
$ wget -q http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r10-linux_x86.tgz
$ wget -q http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r5b-linux-x86.tar.bz2
$ tar xjf linux-2.6.32.9.tar.bz2
$ tar xzf android-sdk_r10-linux_x86.tgz
$ tar xjf android-ndk-r5b-linux-x86.tar.bz2
earlier, i copied the config file for the kernel specific to my LG Revo by using Root Explorer and copying the /proc/config.gz file. i now copy this into my linux kernel src tree, being sure to gzunzip it first and to copy it to the src folder as ".config", not "config".
Code:
$ cd $LGREVOSRC/linux-2.6.32.9
$ gzip -d ~rickt/tmp/from_my_lgrevo/config.gz
$ cp ~rickt/tmp/from_my_lgrevo/config .config
now we have to edit the .config file and add the tun module so it will be compiled. i added the following line to the .config file:
Code:
CONFIG_TUN=m
now, we compile the modules, being sure to set the environment variables for the architecture we NEED, not the one we're compiling on:
Code:
$ export ARCH=arm
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
$ export PATH=$PATH:$LGREVOSRC/android-ndk-r5b/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.4.0/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin
$ make modules
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
HOSTCC scripts/basic/docproc
HOSTCC scripts/basic/hash
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o
< snipped, for brevity >
LD [M] net/sched/cls_flow.ko
CC net/sched/sch_dsmark.mod.o
LD [M] net/sched/sch_dsmark.ko
$
let make sure the tun.ko module was compiled, and we'll see what type of arch it was compiled for:
Code:
$ find . -name tun.ko
./drivers/net/tun.ko
$ ls -l ./drivers/net/tun.ko
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 190705 Aug 19 06:35 ./drivers/net/tun.ko
$ file ./drivers/net/tun.ko
./drivers/net/tun.ko: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
$ strings ./drivers/net/tun.ko | grep -i arm
vermagic=2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv6
BOOM! note the ARMv6. this is important, because when i try to insert the module into the kernel on my android (after copying it over, obviously) i get:
Code:
# insmod tun.ko
insmod: init_module 'tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)
ok, so i start nosing around in the logs to see what i can see, and i see:
Code:
<3>[122130.240509] tun: version magic '2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv6 ' should be '2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
so... i guess this was a long and drawn-out way of saying that i have a great desire to have a tun.ko for our beloved LG Revolution, but i'm not sure how to have gcc on a linux box cross-compile for ARMv7, not ARMv6.
anyone? bueller?
I work quite a bit with cross-compilers in my day job, but I haven't tried to use any of the pre-packaged ones in the Android SDK(s).. however, until I have time to play with them, the ARMv6 versus 7 probably relates to these 2 variables:
$ export ARCH=arm
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
Also, gcc has -march and -mtune params that can sometimes be used to select specific CPUs and/or sub-architectures within a main CPU family.. if someone (e.g. LG) gave out an SDK for the Revo specifically, their gcc would probably already be "spec'ed" to march and mtune for the specific CPU..so maybe the generic Android ARM gcc cross-compiler defaults to ARMv6.
I may have time to poke into this later, but it probably won't be today..
- Phil
I've been informed that GCC cannot output ARMv7. I think licensed developer tools are needed. Can anyone confirm this?
RMT.
GCC4.3 added ARMv7 support. This discussion seems to confirm the various details:
I think in GCC 4.3 is where you get ARMv7 architecture support, (see
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/changes.html), which is EABI and at GCC 4.4
you have "EABI-compatible profiling interface for EABI targets." (again see
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/changes.html).
So I've chosen to work on 4.4 just to be sure, and it also supports Cortex-A9, as
well as VFPv3 (yeah!).

http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/ARMv7-EABI-Cross-Compiler-tp4201510p4201523.html
Depending on who is providing the cross-compiler you are trying to use, they may either be using something prior to gcc4.3, or, they are providing a compiler which has not been enabled with the ARMv7 target. You could try using Kegel's cross-tool with a recent gcc (4.4 or 4.5) to build your own ARMv7 cross-compiler, but not sure how deep you want to go with this!
- Phil
I haven't been able to get a working tun.ko for this either. I've having trouble compiling my own. Could you post the adapter you're working with?
I just saw a verizon update come down, but kernel is 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected] #1.
Bumping this ol' thread hoping that progress has been made or someone knows about a thread I missed. Trying (hoping) to get OpenVPN going with my Revo so I'm hoping there's a tun.ko available.
I successfully compiled a tun.ko for mine using the "crossdev" package on gentoo. Just setting ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- did the trick for me.
I believe older verions of gcc were not yet capable of producing ARMv7.
gcc 4.5.3 certainly is. I would try upgrading to that if possible and that ought to work.
I'd be happy to share my tun.ko with anyone that wants it as well...
Slightly unrelated, I also found that loading the module (insmod tun.ko) did not cause the /dev/net/tun node to be created for some reason...
a simple
Code:
mkdir /dev/net
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
as root, and AFTER loading the module resolves that problem, at least until the next reboot. I haven't figured out how to get it to run a script at boot yet to automate it.
If anyone wants the tun.ko let me know and I'll upload it somewhere.

I believe you need to install ClockWorkMod to flash blitz onto your phone. You can backup first and try it out safely with CWM. Just follow the instructions in the thread it's easy.
Here's my tun.ko for anyone that wants it. I found "openvpn installer" and "openvpn settings" apps perfect for my needs (only issue is I still have to manually add the device node -- even with blitzkrieg, but it's no big deal)

[Q] Modify BCM4329 driver

Hello,
I'm looking to access Broadcom 4329 sources and make some minimal modifications.
I could successfully compile Kernel and bcm4329.ko and upload to the phone. Both Kernel a module are working fine. Except that I can't find the true sources and modify them.
There are many guides, some outdateted, and confuses me a bit.
I found bcm4329 sources at ~/android/system/hardware/broadcom/wlan/bcm4329/src but those files are never being used at all while compiling.
On Nexus One this folder seams to be completelly unused.
When I compile the Kernel it also makes a working bcm4329.ko module with files from ~/android/kernel/cm-kernel/drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329.
I need help to known how can I modify sources a compile them.
Which files are the 'true' sources for this drivers to be modifed?
I add a printk in wl_cfg80211.c located at both folders, but do nothing.
Regards,
for the record: we found the solution, the module gets compiled with the sources from
Code:

[KERNEL] Building additional modules for JB stock kernels

Some background info:
I'm the author of PPP Widget which is an app that enables mobile data connections on Android devices with USB host capabilities - even if they are WiFi-only.
It turned out that many Android devices have the drivers for 3G sticks already on board, included with the stock kernel. The one large exception are Samsung devices ...
I started to provide the missing drivers as modules (mostly "ppp_async" and "option" which depends on "usb_wwan"). That worked well for some Google devices and also for Samsung devices running ICS, using the source packages from
http://opensource.samsung.com/
In their JB kernels though, Samsung enabled the "MODVERSION" option. Furthermore, compiling the modules with the officially recommended toolchain resulted in a different "module_layout" checksum than in the modules provided in the firmware.
This prevents using any additonal modules on the devices. "insmod" refuses to load these modules.
The only explanation for this problem is that the custom device configuration provided in the source packages does not match the configuration of the device kernel.
This is the case for all GT-P31xx and GT-P51xx models as far as I can tell.
My take is that Samsung is required to provide the correct kernel configuration under the rules of the GPL. Maybe anyone else wants to contact Samsung on this behalf; I already did several times - still waiting for an answer ...
That's the reason why I build everyting from source including the GPU driver and lost exFAT support http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859227 and the boot image result http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855700 .

Unfortunately, replacing the kernel is no option for end users. The modules I provide are going into a folder on the sdcard, and can be "insmod'ed" from there with no problem - once their magic string and the "modversions" are matching the kernel on the device. The latter is the wall I'm hitting ...

I have received a reply from Samsung. They have updated the JB open source package for GT-P3110, GT-P5110 and GT-N7100 (which previously included a config file from 3.0.15 for a kernel version of 3.0.31 !!).
Unfortunately, the modversions of the compiled kernel are still different and incompatible. I have replied with these finding.
Waiting again ...
BTW, the only recent kernel config consistent with the actual device kernel that I have found is for the GT-N8000 (3.0.31). So it is possible to provide a matching configuration.

If You will start to work with kernel I'm willing to beta test with my P5110. Only issue for me is that I need to know what 3G dongle to buy (well need it anyway so would prefer an advice from someone who know something about it). I'm living in Poland and Ireland (once here once there) so I can even test LTE modems (well donations here, myself can spend up to ~50€ on 3G one) because in Wroclaw, Poland I heard it's quite good, also I got H+/H on SGSII here. While in Ireland signal is not THAT strong due to fact most of places are quite remote (except Dublin, Galway etc). Hope I can help in either way
This is what I wrote to Samsung concerning the botched configuration file provided with the latest GT-P3110 kernel source:
Thank you for the source code update.
However, I have asked for the kernel configuration that matches exactly the kernel on the GT-P3110.
I have compiled the kernel from the provided update, but the module layout checksum does *not* match the one from the kernel running on my device.
On the device: module_layout 0xb5a27644
From source: module_layout 0x143474f1
I have used the recommended toolchain "CodeSourcery 2010q1" and the unchanged config file provided with the source ("android_espresso_omap4430_r04_user_defconfig").
Please be aware that you are obliged by the GPL to provide the correct config file for the binary kernel that you are distributing.
As a side note: the configuration provided with the kernel source for the GT-N8000 *does* match the kernel on the device, so there is no doubt that it is possible to get the configuration right.
Other Android vendors are just enabling the "embedded" config file in the kernel, so that the correct configuration is simply available on the device as "/proc/config.gz". This is so much less trouble. I suggest that you enable this option for Samsung kernels too.

...

The GT-N8010 is also in the same situation you describe - config for 3.0.15 and jb stock kernel at 3.0.31, can't build working modules for stock.
davp, there seems to have been some activity at the Samsung open source center after my messages.
I suggest you make yourself heard as well. Use the "Inquiry" button next to the package download link in the table for your device.
To be able to add working modules to the device, the kernel configuration for the source has to be 100% compatible. It does not matter if any closed drivers are missing as we don't want to replace the kernel - but all those general debugging config options should be correct.
BTW, there is a history of similar issues:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123643
The kernel source for the GT-P3110 has been updated once more, and this time they have fixed the configuration.
With the latest JB update we can actually build working modules for the current firmware.
I confirmed this to the Samsung people and reminded them of the other devices in need of this fix: GT-P3100, GT-P5100, GT-P5110, GT-N7100 and probably more (like the GT-N8010).

I confirmed this to the Samsung people and reminded them of the other devices in need of this fix: GT-P3100, GT-P5100, GT-P5110, GT-N7100 and probably more (like the GT-N8010).

So for now we might get stock kernel which will support 3G modems via USB OTG? How about other kernels such as CM10.1?
I'm looking for good 3G dongle then Any advices?
Additional kernel modules for stock JB P31xx (tested) and P51xx (untested), contains:
- usb_wwan, ppp_async, and option module for PPP Widget
- dns_resolver, md4, and cifs module for cifs/samba filesystem support
- sunrpc, lockd, and nfs module for nfs filesystem support
Kernel config file attached.
FTDI Single Port Serial Driver added.

Hi ketut.kumajaya,
I'm trying to use cifs.ko but i get:
/system/lib/modules # insmod cifs.ko
insmod: can't insert 'cifs.ko': unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter
I have:
/system/lib/modules # uname -a
Linux localhost 3.0.31-1084989 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Mar 25 14:53:07 KST 2013 armv7l GNU/Linux
I tried other cirs.ko with same result.
Can you give me some clues of what can I do?
Thank you.
Try insmod in order:
insmod dns_resolver.ko
insmod md4.ko
insmod cifs.ko
If something goes wrong, see the kernel messages using dmesg.

Great!!!
That's the solution.
In my Tab 10.1 4.0.4 I'm loading (different kernel and different modules, of course):
insmod cifs.ko
insmod md4.ko
insmod nls_utf8.ko
So I was not thinking I should use a different order.
Thank you.

[Galaxy 2 tab 7]Cm10.1][Tvheadend And Rvbt Running]

This is a copy paste thread from this To here
please don't ask me about anything of this the thread has been created by @cmarxmeier
Finally made tvheadend running on galaxy tab2 7" with it913x dvbt-stick locally:
Using own modified nightly cm-10.1 (only a few bins like iptables-save/restore etc. integrated) i'd set up an ubuntu raring loop image with 3.82 gb on tablet with linux deploy.
After setting all dev-tools and espresso10 source i'd took media_build from linux-tv.org and compiled all kernel modules to get it913x working (was supported from kernel 3.2.x on - espresso10 is 3.0.3x).
dvbt-channel-scanning with wscan from droid tv worked fine but dvblast to get stream from within droidtv always failed - even with self compiled versions from git source.
I checked out TVHGuide (frontend for tvheadend) against my ubuntu notebook install - worked fine. After that i installed tvheadend-source in ubuntu image on android - was often inperformant but worked.
Next way was to compile tvheadend for espresso10 with toolchain (HowTO link war blocked by system ) and pushed to /data/dvb by means of adb.
firmware was pushed to /etc/firmware, modules to /system/lib/modules or /data/dvb to be loaded from script.
