hi guys....i've downloaded the last kernel sources of franciscofranco 2.35.10 kernel....i've added the sippolo's workaround and then increase the HZ value of the kernel(set at 500) for my custom rom.....after i've done
Code:
make thunderg-perf_defconfig
make zImage -j4
it stuck at this error

i don't understand why......i think it is a lib problem.....but seems that all libraries are imported!!!can anyone help me??? thnx in advice
Which toolchain?

.35 kernel have new GPIO library, you should code sippolo's workaround into new driver, do not replace whole file.

You downloaded the latest sources? Because I haven't compiled it, I just merged the patches, I might have forgot to apply something. In this case it says it misses the swapper_space reference.

Add the swapper_space code to those files and compile again.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but there ain't a problem with the kernel, I just compiled it without any modification, just like it is in the sources and it compiles fine. Try to make clean and make distclean, then compile again.

Hello All,
So I´m all sorts of new at developing for android, and I wanted to open up my thoughts and efforts to the community. I am trying to port CM 7, (eventually 9), and am using the CM Compiler that was developed by LithidCM. I´ve gotten everything up and running, now I just need to figure out how to set up the proper files from the Holiday itself. As I said, this is a work in progress, and any suggestions are very helpful. Right now, the stumbling block is setting up a Holiday/Raider/Vivid repo with the necessary compilation files.
Lets get cooking!
CMCompiler (All credit goes to Lithid CM) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415661
+1 i would love to see cm7 or 9 on my vivid
That CMCompiler wont work for the Vivid
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Not until there is either a CM repo for the Vivid or I can set up the correct files locally, then I can modify the script for it to look there, rather than the CM repo. Iḿ looking for ways to make it WORK, so anything to that end is appreciated. Either that or work on another method if it looks more promising. I have time, a machine, a device, some knowledge, and the desire, I just want to get together with some other people who can contribute a bit on the knowledge end to HELP get this up and running.

I'm already taking care of this
If you're into it, you can download my repo for CM9 here: https://github.com/thecubed/android_device_htc_holiday
I make no promises on timeline, but I do expect to have a teaser video with a few things working at least here in a day or so.

if you guys want i got a port booting with signal for the amaze almost same device
I too would love to see both CM7 and 9 on the Vivid, however from what i gather CMCompiler is not really going to be the way at it.
I follow alot of Team Haxsung and CM people and they all believe it to be not the best way to help the CM community, rather a way to re brand and take credit.
Further, CMCompiler requires there being a branch, which means that nightlies will be compiled quickly by build bots, if build bots are down or you want to make a nightly KANG you can install the dependencies via the CM wiki and build yourself, which might actually allow you to learn how to build and modify the source rather then having an application spit it out for you

AH! I have been using your repo as my source on CMC, but it fails each time because I´m missing some files. which files, well, that´s the step I´m at now. Im stoked your working on this. I´d like to learn how to do this on my own as well, then I´d be happy to put together a step by step from scratch for building from a fresh install of Ubuntu, I think it´s needed.

And if you´ve read anything I have written (and what others have added) you would see that the purpose of this post is LEARNING. I´m not a linux guy, but I´m quickly figuring it out, not much help to individuals such as yourself who choose to distract and detract rather than assist and contribute, or at least keep your finger off the ¨submit¨ button.
I posted this thread because there is no working version of CM7 for this device. Lets drop the negativity/whatever and put our efforts and keystrokes to getting this booting.
Some of the amaze builds i have you should just have to have someone make a kernel and they will work

Ok we're just letting you know that the CMCompiler will not help. But try this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=667298
My comment had no attitude as you speak of, like XAviierG i was just letting you know that if your intention is LEARNING the CMcompiler does not help with the process. Its an application that runs in a terminal window and you press numbers on screen to pull from the repos, again thats not learning and it wont help get the Vivid working any sooner.
I appropriate your eagerness to learn Linux, i am still learning alot aswell, and i too was excited when i read about the CMcompling application, however after reading about it and the stance of the dev teams i realized that its not the best for me and people looking to learn

CMC got me motivated to figure out how to get this working. Yes it´s a shortcut, no it doesn´t help anyone who can´t flash through rommanager already, and thus not us, right now. However, what gets people learning is a good thing, as far as I am concerned. I know far more about Linux now than I ever would have if it had worked beautifully from the start, including building everything through other means that it looks to do through invisible scripting.
As I said, I´m done talking about this.
Back on topic.
I am working on building a fresh CM7 Kernel through
Code:
[email protected]:~/android/kernel/cm-kernel$ adb pull /proc/config.gz /home/michaelcreane/android/kernel/cm-kernel/config.gz
cat config.gz | gunzip > .config
All goes well
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER oldconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER menuconfig
No problems.
But then
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
and I run into this:

I just accepted all defaults in the RCU implementation, and I´m guessing that´s where the errors are starting. I got the same error when I ran

rather than extracting the .gz file from my device. Any ideas?

Tease: we have a successful booting CM9 from source
Current problem: the kernel we're using (stock from source) is missing the proper USB stack for ICS, as well as GSL changes, so we either have to fork toastcfh's kernel, or fix tiamat's kernel which currently doesn't boot.
However, we were able to get it to boot with a stock kernel built from source. Gfx are skewed, but touchscreen worked, and the colors were right-- so we're on to something at least.
Anyway, I'll be pushing what I have to my github as "holidayics" instead of "holiday" until it's ready for primetime. (@ http://github.com/thecubed )

General informations:
This thread's aim is only to represent a central meeting and discussion point for BCM21553 developers and, in particular, for the open Kernel/ROM sources development for the Samsung Galaxy Pocket GT-S5300 (codenamed Cori).
Information for common users:
As already described in the previous section, if you are not a developer, please restrict your posts to the general discussion thread so that developers can maintain good communication. Every post that is not strictly respecting these rules will be reported to the forum moderators. Thanks for your understanding.
For any other BCM21553 device related question or information, please, use this thread as a reference point, instead:
[DEVS ONLY][BCM21553 series] CyanogenMod 11 for BCM21553 Development Discussion
As someone already might know, I'm streambinder, from MoltenMotherBoard team.
I have already followed some projects for the GT-S5300, but especially kept in contact
with some of the events related to the porting of ROM and Kernel sources for BCM21553 chipset based devices.
In this precise moment, the sources in my possession allow you to be able to compile
a bugfree CWM 5.0.2.8 (based on CyanogenMod 7 code) with a kernel based on the Samsung stock one.
The only - fundamental - problem was due to the fact that unless I hadn't used the prebuilt INIT binary
token in the Samsung stock firmware boot.img, the phone would not work - or, better, boot up.
This means that until the situation - regarding this issue - doesn't change, our access to the porting of custom ROM
would be barred.
Recently, I decided to give Cori another chance and rework my sources, looking at the wonderful work brought
by the BroadcomCM team on CyanogenMod 9 (in particular, thanks to @bieltv.3 and @Alberto96) and @psyke83 on CyanogenMod 11.
They've not only been able to run these two ROMs in a more or less crude way, but this developer has been able to write
the necessary strings to make the INIT binary of some of these BCM21553 devices opensource.
Strong of this informations, I readjusted some of the sources of BroadcomCM's CyangenMod 9, which includes
all the progress carried out by both the team and psyke83, in order to make them work even on Cori,
and am now next to the first test of the CWM 6.X.X.X, based on IceCreamSandwich code.
At the same time, @akhbh is working on the KitKat code based CWM.
I hope I can give more information about any progress as soon as possible.
The General Discussion thread for non-development issues is here:
*.[DISCUSSION] CyanogenMod 11 For Galaxy Pocket GT-S5300 Discussion Thread
Made a first test of CWM based on CyanogenMod 9 code.
It seems it cannot flash it as it weighs so much compared to its partition configuration value: in fact, the maximum boot partition size is set up to 5.0MB, but the compiled boot.img weighs 5.3MB.
Will have to resize its weight in order to make it fill into the partition.
@akhbh, have you had any complication in these terms, with CyanogenMod 11 sources?
@psyke83, what do you suggest to do? Do you think an increasement of boot partition would be a better idea?

No, I didn't faced those complications. My boot.img weighted around 4.5 MB in lzma compression mode. In gzip, it increased to more than 5 mb.

Well, I took the GeTux kernel for cori, had to change the board name though and then compile it. CWM was booting even before changing the board name but there was no reaction from the phone on trying to boot cm9/cm11
And after changing board name, a black screen on trying to boot
Another info: When tried to merge cori source into the bcm21553 common one, it did compile but gave bootloop of GT-S5300 logo on trying to boot as well as when trying to go in CWM.
Bieltv.3 recommended to use cori source instead of the bcm21553 common one so we used cori sources

I suggest to use our Kernel sources for now, too: it will automatically bypass few errors/issues/bootloops that we cannot now fight with.
The most important thing is to make INIT working from sources (hope it will be working
on my CM9 sources, too) and check that every our configuration is correctly working and
making Cori boot into recovery.
Once we'll make it perfectly working without any kind of issue, will be the right time to try
to make Cori supported with the BC21553-common kernel.

Okay, I will use your kernel sources and try if something is changed once I reach home. For now, I neither have this device nor a PC, as I'm in another city.

No problem, mate.
Here you have every source in my possession:
platform_kernel_samsung_cori
platform_device_samsung_cori
Keep in contact with me, as I will need some informations by you.
Anyway I'm now making another build, keeping some not so much important binaries excluded, so that I can make the compiled boot.img fill into our little Cori's boot partition. I know it's a dirty workaround, but if it works, I'll use it untill @psyke83 will suggest me a better way to do.

Of course, mate. I'm working on it, right now.
It doesn't seem to boot, strange if the same INIT binary sources are working for @akhbh.
#UPDATE
In order to troubleshoot, I'll give you some info.
For his build I used these sources:
platform_kernel_samsung_cori
platform_device_samsung_cori
android_device_samsung_bcm21553-common
Applied some lines on our bcm21553-bootimg.mk, too, in order to exclude parted and mke2fs and make the compiled boot.img weigh less.
@cleverior.ipul, can you link me your kernel sources, as akhbh said he used your ones for CM11.
@akhbh, which modifies have you applied in order to compile CWM based on CM11 code? Which device tree?
#UPDATE 2
Attached my compiled boot.img.
If anyone of you would extract it (you can easily use this tool: bootimgtools - read how to use it in the README) and make a diff with the CM11 one (just extract the ramdisk of both boot.imgs and - in the terminal - use this command: diff -urN /path/to/cm9/ramdisk /path/to/cm11/ramdisk > diff.patch), would make to me a huge favour.
Let me know.

I think we didn't had significant changes. Perhaps the same as totoro. But, that resulted in the internal_sd not mounting error in cwm.
Sadly, as said before, I am away from my home city and can't provide the files to you and can't do the boot.img diffs as well
Try to ask psyke83, he might have a solution for that

Sadly, as said before, I am away from my home city and can't provide the files to you and can't do the boot.img diffs as well
Try to ask psyke83, he might have a solution for that

Then, if you didn't make any massive change upon the sources, then I'll only try using your kernel.
Can you give me your kernel sources, mate, please?

Currently, I can provide you the boot.img only. For the sources, @cleverior.ipul can provide the kernel sources coz as said earlier, his kernel is used. Well, we were working together to bring cm11 but weren't successful

Of course, mate. I'm working on it, right now.
It doesn't seem to boot, strange if the same INIT binary sources are working for @akhbh.
#UPDATE
In order to troubleshoot, I'll give you some info.
For his build I used these sources:
platform_kernel_samsung_cori
platform_device_samsung_cori
android_device_samsung_bcm21553-common
Applied some lines on our bcm21553-bootimg.mk, too, in order to exclude parted and mke2fs and make the compiled boot.img weigh less.
@cleverior.ipul, can you link me your kernel sources, as akhbh said he used your ones for CM11.
@akhbh, which modifies have you applied in order to compile CWM based on CM11 code? Which device tree?
#UPDATE 2
Attached my compiled boot.img.
If anyone of you would extract it (you can easily use this tool: bootimgtools - read how to use it in the README) and make a diff with the CM11 one (just extract the ramdisk of both boot.imgs and - in the terminal - use this command: diff -urN /path/to/cm9/ramdisk /path/to/cm11/ramdisk > diff.patch), would make to me a huge favour.
Let me know.

here the link source https://github.com/cleverior/android_kernel_samsung_cori
i've changed the board name. If your device can not boot after using the zImage from this source, then rename init.bcm21553.rc to init.gt-s5300.rc.
@streambinder, what is grom? As bieltv.3 said that init built grom for cori is required to fix adb over cwm recovery. If adb gets working, then possibly the black screen while booting cm11 might get fixed

Sincerely don't what are you talking about.
Anyway, have to try to understand where's the problem with the not-booting CWM.
Will try with your sources and let you know.
*EDIT* This thread is now based upon the work by @fattire and @slayher, who got it up on the 910T. For that phone see this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...nt/unoffcial-cm-12-0-t-mobile-note-4-t2964887
This thread is for dev's interested to help out porting CM12 to our device. I've researched for info regarding CM ports and good information is actually quit scarce. A dev might post something like 'hmm stuck at boot anim' and then the next day 'got it, booting now !' without explaining what he did to solve it. I want to change that, so this thread can serve as a guide for other first time porters too (this is also my first porting project), documenting every step as in much detail as possible.
For ROMS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...official-cm-12-0-910f-note-4-trltexx-t2987412
Please use this thread for R&D/development ONLY !!!
Ok, I'm really starting from scratch and never done any phone ROM porting. I've just made a new virtual disk running ubuntu and am currently downloading the CM12 repo. I figured, how to get even started here. I figured that the goals we need to attain in this order:
1) compile the kernel samsung supplied
2) make sure we can boot into kernel
3) get ADB up and running
4) get CM12 starting up, even the bootanim alone would be a nice goal to reach
5) Booting into homescreen
6) Fixing all stuff like modem, wifi etc etc etc
Anyway, I'm currently downloading CM12 sources as we speak ...
This is by the way a link I found very useful: http://www.androidenea.com/2009/08/init-process-and-initrc.html It describes the Android init process, cause I was wondering, how to even start all this ? How to get from kernel to CM booting: that's where init.rc should come into play of course
Good luck this is a long project. I build carbonrom for another phone where everything for cm was allready fixed. I would start with a phone that allready has support to learn how the process goes. You can brick your phone and it's a process of trail and error... But I hope you manage good luck!

I'm not sure I understand what you mean ? If the phone already has support, then what's there to port ? Or do you mean building CM itself ? That I've done quite a few times already, did quite a bit of work on the i9500, fixing RILD issue's, kernel issue's and other stuff.
soo...maybe m wrong (has been a while snce ive ported) but im goin to drop a few lines anyhow......
porting is very different from source building.....the only reason you would need to dl the cm sources would be to compile the rom using sources...and right now the note 4 has none we would need device,kernel,common,vendor sources for that....so... we cant source build right now only port....sp what we need to do is research which device officially or unofficially that has cm with same specs as the note4 things like screen size, board, things of that nature....and would highly recommend using the same carrier as well.....but once we have that info....dl that phones cm rom zip....dl one of our phones rom zips.....now for the fun....ill lay out a way i did it maybe is the same still ...
place both cm zip and note 4 zip on desktop..
create a new folder call it new
drag all files from the cm zip into the new
open the new and open the note 4 zip have them side by side
now your going to drag pretty much all folders/files from the note 4 system folder into the new sytsem folder one folder at a time excluding:
app,priv-app,etc,fonts,media,framework,xbin (im probably forgetting one or two but has been a long time)
now the fun begins....time to edit some xmls and trial and error on pretty much everything until it is working right
you are also going to want to change out the kernel and have to edit the updater-script in the meta-inf....
im positive im forgetting a few things but this is pretty much what i can remember......from off the top of my head...some of the guides ill link in a bit will go into greater detail and explain things more in depth
a few links ive had bookmarked that will help ya

Great addition to the thread ! Hmm I haven't done any porting myself. I figured once we have a kernel up (compiling it should be easy), then what's stopping us from booting CM ? I mean of course RILD won't work if we don't have a JNI (or what's it called on ART, ANI ? ) interface to the modem. Of course we won't have NFC, internet, telephony, all that. But merely booting a graphical interface that should be doable with Nexus 6 source code, right ? I mean all we need is SoC sources so we have cpu & graphics working, right ? So That was what I had in mind myself but your approach actually is quite the same now I think of it
Thread is moved to general AGAIN. Hehe. Starting a development thread ON XDA and have it in the developer section seems harder than porting CM12 Anyway I guess it doesn't matter in which section it is, as long as n00bs and trolls stay out and we can focus on development only.
Anyway, downloading kernel sources as we speak ...
BTW, here is Nexus 6 source code: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-nexus-6-factory-images/
Going to down that right now too ...
Ok, building kernel as we speak. I just installed the arm-eabi-4.7 toolchain, like this:
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.7/
And then edited the makefile and issued the 3 commands all as specified in README_Kernel.txt from the Samsung Kernel. So far so good
And yes, as expected, build breaks:
drivers/scsi/ufs/ufs_test.c:25:19: fatal error: ../sd.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[3]: *** [drivers/scsi/ufs/ufs_test.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/scsi/ufs] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/scsi] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
Hehe, Samsung wouldn't be Samsung if they would supply a kernel that actually builds from the start Going to investigate ...
Actually that seems like an easy fix, just linked the file correctly
And a new break:
In file included from drivers/gud/MobiCoreDriver/logging.c:21:0:
drivers/gud/MobiCoreDriver/main.h:24:22: fatal error: platform.h: No such file or directory
I'd say it's looking for the file in platforms/MSM8960_SURF_STD, going to link it correctly ...
And building again ...
n file included from drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_mdp_trace.h:255:0,
from drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_mdp.c:61:
include/trace/define_trace.h:79:43: fatal error: ./mdss_mdp_trace.h: No such file or directory
Include should point to kernel includes, fixing it again
And building again ...
Code:
OBJCOPY arch/arm/boot/Image
Kernel: arch/arm/boot/Image is ready
LZO arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.lzo
AS arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.lzo.o
LD arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux
OBJCOPY arch/arm/boot/zImage
Kernel: arch/arm/boot/zImage is ready
Kernel ready Of course that was the easy part, hehe, but still, progress. Tomorrow going to start with the difficult part, getting CM up
I've ported before but only tw where it was mainly framework edits. Never worked with cm before but like the op I'm keen to learn. If i can help at all just let me know, I use linux mint myself rather than Ubuntu but they're very similar
So, just downloaded Nexus 6 sources. It seems that directory /device/moto/shamu contains the device hardware stuff we need ! Going to research some more today ...
*EDIT* also mind the propietary-blobs.txt in that directory. I'm still waiting for my Note 4 myself (hopefully friday), but this needs to be compared with the files on the device, cause if they exist, they will be blobs of course and we need them.
Hi All,
I have been building permissive kernels for my own use for a while now, but the Note 5 kernel (both the "C" and "I" versions from Samsung open Source) is giving me fits. As you can see from my terminal output, I get through the creation of the image, the modules build fine, but when the firmware install makefile starts, I get an error I've never seen before, even if I have made no changes at all to the source code:
Code:
OBJCOPY arch/arm64/boot/Image
GZIP arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST 2 modules
CC net/ipv4/tcp_htcp.mod.o
LD [M] net/ipv4/tcp_htcp.ko
CC net/ipv4/tcp_westwood.mod.o
LD [M] net/ipv4/tcp_westwood.ko
[B]/home/parallels/ANDROID/KERNEL/920c_kernel/scripts/Makefile.fwinst:45: target `/lib/firmware/tsp_stm/stm_z1.fw' given more than once in the same rule[/B].
I have looked at the cited section code, but don't see anything obvious. I have also google searched for this error way too thoroughly and PM'd some who have successfully compiled this kernel, but alas...
I am running Ubuntu 14.04 via Parallels on a Macbook Pro running Yosemite. As noted above, I am compiling from the Samsung OpenvSource files for The 920I and have also tried the 920C version, as well. As for toolchains, I have tried the Android NDK aarch64 4.9 toolchain, linaro aarch64 4.9 and linaro aarch64 5.2, all to no avail. I have tried make clean, make mrproper, deleted .ccache, etc., as well as using/not using -jX.
Here is a link to a repo with the untouched source code: https://github.com/sk806/N5_Kernel.git
ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
Thanks!

It is related to modules compiling from what I can gather. If I use Ktoonsez source, I don't get that error. However, I notice it doesn't compile any modules. I still get an Image in my boot directory. Do you? I think the kernel itself is safe to use. You could probably ignore this error.
You guys just need to read what the error exactly refers to and then search for it in your source.

I don't have anything like that in my makefile.fwinst file. Here is what is at line 45, which is where terminal is telling me the error is at:

HA! I googled the error a million times and never saw your repo! I wasn't sure if removing "stm_z1.fw tsp_stm" from the makefile would screw anything up, but apparently it doesn't. Many thanks, sir!
It's odd that others have built with the same sources (920C, mainly, from what I have seen), and have not changed that section of the makefile, but still succeeded in their build. I wonder what it is about my setup that caused this error. Anyway, not an issue now. Thanks again.

Uhm somehow. I used a script which ignored that error as your kernel image is already built and you shouldn't care about modules. But if you still want a fix then see my commit: https://github.com/minealex2244/AldeXus/commit/e89301766b3d251b285649a38ee4dea4f2871b99
This commit shows you what to remove (it may be the perfect fix or just an example of what you should do in your code).
Tell me if it helped.
