Database Develop

[KERNEL] [WIP] Custom Kernel Project

Intro
I wanted to make a thread to document kernel development activities that we're doing. So far, this Ouya forum has been a great place to view what it takes to start developing for a new device!
First of all, alsutton over on GitHub posted the kernel source. It can be found here https://github.com/ouya/ouya_1_1-kernel.
XDA University has some great articles to get started:
http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/getting-started-building-a-kernel-from-source
http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/adding-features-to-your-kernel
Things noticed about the stock kernel so far:
-it's cpu governor seems to be permanently set to "performance" (1600Mhz all the time). There might be a way to override this, but in the voltage control app, I wasn't able to change anything (frequency or governor)
Wish List:
-Access to set more governors (could help the Ouya's fan stay off during menu surfing)
-Overclocking (we have a fan...let's break 2Ghz because we need moar hertz. Might help speed up some emulators)
Need more info:
-If we ever overlock, we need a way to view temperature to make sure we're not frying our Ouyas. Just a guess, but it's probably a file we can read from in /dev or /proc
-Just a blind guess after reading the XDA University article on adding overclocking, but SOURCE/arch/arm/mach-tegra/tegra3_clocks.c might be a place to look. It seems to have clock frequency tables. Other devs that have made tegra 3 kernels might know the appropriate files to edit

boot.img details
As an FYI,
for most android devices, the kernel resides in it's own partition on the device. When flashing a new kernel, a new boot.img is flashed to the partition. The boot.img file includes a header, the kernel image (pre-compiled), and the ramdisk. On boot, the kernel takes control and uses the ramdisk files to get things started. The rest of the partitions (including system, data, cache) are mounted and the Android OS is booted (from system).
Here's one way to take a boot.img and dissect it in order to view the ramdisk contents.

Here's another way as well (thanks, professorpoptarts)

May I suggest not to try to overclock past known safe values of 1.9ghz?
As for the kernel....it is not set to be at 1.6ghz all the time... its set differently and actually stays and floats at 1ghz until utilization kicks in at to 1.6ghz
You wont be able to change any of these values until you compile your own kernel with the correct voltage/clock settings in place.
-----edit------
To add to that in respects to the 1-1.6ghz range it actually only utilizes those 2 cpu states ( from what I've recorded )

just fyi, I was looking at the init.rc for the 264 OTA, just in case a rom gets flashed that didn't remove this we could always disable the recovery flash at the boot level.
service flash_recovery /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
class main
oneshot

for any other aspiring kernel devs out there:
https://github.com/invisiblek/AnyKernel/tree/ouya
(fyi: this is on the branch named ouya of that repo, make your you add: -b ouya to your git clone or you'll get the branch for a different device)
just throw your zImage in kernel/ and your modules in modules/
make sure when you compile your kernel, you add -fno-pic to your KBUILD_CFLAGS_MODULE in Makefile in the root of your kernel source
otherwise it wont load the modules

Looks like it's not loading any modules at all... I had no problems previously with older kernels till 328....anyone know what im missing?

My main issue here, and something I'd like to see done.
The Ouya seems to get hot sometimes during long durations of gameplay, could we put together a method on getting the fan boosting cool air through the device once it gets hot? Or would that be something hardware related as the Ouya can't say; "I'm hot, pour some water on me"?
If this was useful to you, I can only ask of a favor!

sure through some code already published there are multiple ways to impliment thermal throttling
although that could impact game play
im sure there are also ways to open the unit and have it trigger a fan
im sure you also could make custom heatsink for the unit for those hardcore Overclockers
you wanna look in
tegra3_clocks.c
tegra3_dvfs.c
tegra3_thermal.c
tegra3_throttle.c
cpu-tegra3.c
and a few others
you can improve the GPU clocks and add governors easily as well as change between slab/slub/slob/slqb
this would be something really fun to play with ill try to save up for an ouya

Is this project still active? I would love to contribute in any way possible to an overclocked kernel, but I have never done any kernel development before.

Just for reference, I have two Ouya's. One came clocked (retail version) at 1.6, the other came (Kickstarter) clocked at 1.7.

[Q] 'Correct' way to compile a permissive SELinux kernel?

As the title suggests, I'm attempting to compile a (Lollipop) Nexus 5 kernel with SELinux in permissive mode by default. For reference, I am using the msm kernel source tree at commit 8a80a0e.
I have managed to accomplish this by modifying msm/security/selinux/selinuxfs.c and inserting new_value = 0; into sel_write_enforce to prevent the mode being changed:
Code:
length = -EINVAL;
if (sscanf(page, "%d", &new_value) != 1)
goto out;
new_value = 0; /* inserted this line */
if (new_value != selinux_enforcing) {
length = task_has_security(current, SECURITY__SETENFORCE);
if (length)
goto out;
audit_log(current->audit_context, GFP_KERNEL, AUDIT_MAC_STATUS,
"enforcing=%d old_enforcing=%d auid=%u ses=%u",
This method, however, doesn't seem particularly good, as it relies on the intricacies of the specific implementation of SELinux used in this kernel, and prevents the mode being changed later.
This post suggests changing the CONFIG_ALWAYS_ENFORCE flag for a Samsung device, however the Nexus 5 kernel does not appear to have such an option. Setting the default state of SELinux using various menuconfig options and kernel command line parameters does not appear to have any effect, and disabling it entirely causes the device to crash after boot, before any logcat output is produced.
I have noticed than when started with a kernel with SELinux enabled, one of the first messages from logcat is from auditd, of the form enforcing=1 old_enforcing=0 auid=... ses=..., indicating that something is setting the SELinux mode to enforcing almost immediately after boot.
Thus, I am wondering if anyone knows where this command to set SELinux to enforcing comes from, how to disable it, or another way to compile a kernel with SELinux set to permissive?

I believe you need to change the kernel config to allow command line switching of SELinux:
Code:
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM=y
then modify the boot parameters of your boot.img adding to the cmdline:
Code:
enforcing=0 androidboot.selinux=permissive
I think that's the way. I went through all this but ended up just disabling SELinux altogether so I can't remember for sure if that's all.

Doesn't work. The system boots up in permissive mode, but immediately switches to enforcing, as it usually does. The first few lines of logcat:
Code:
--------- beginning of main
I/installd( 0): installd firing up
W/auditd ( 169): type=2000 audit(0.0:1): initialized
I/auditd ( 169): type=1403 audit(0.0:2): policy loaded auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295
W/auditd ( 169): type=1404 audit(0.0:3): enforcing=1 old_enforcing=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295

Are you using the google boot image, or the AOSP image (they're quite different)? I just checked mine (built from source) and init has -DALLOW_DISABLE_SELINUX=1 which may not be present in the distro version of init.

I wasn't aware there was a difference. I compiled the kernel from source, enabling the relevant config options, then got boot.img from the Nexus 5 factory image, and extracted and replaced the kernel and boot parameters as suggested by this document.

The boot.img built as part of the AOSP build (with USERDEBUG flag) is not locked down the way the factory boot image is. There may be something built-in to the init process to ensure selinux is available in the kernel and cannot be disabled.
I wish I knew more about this. My original goal was to implement the things I needed in the AOSP build and set up selinux permissions to allow it, but I gave up and ended up just removing selinux from the kernel altogether.

Hmm... I'll take a look in the initrd of the Android boot images to see if there's anything in there that might be setting the SELinux mode.
Update: Bah. It seems the AOSP source of init can be configured to accept a ro.boot.selinux parameter, but I see no indication that the code is present in the stock init binary. The code also explains why the phone immediately reboots into recovery when SELinux support is disabled in the kernel.
Update 2: After attempting to download 18GB of AOSP source code, I think my dodgy way of disabling SELinux is really the best method.

Kernel is not booting at all

Hello,
I tried to build a kernel myself and it just fails to boot. I have UART access (through headphone adapter) and I just get nothing in the serial console.
I have CM 11.0 and I cloned CM's android_kernel_lge_hammerhead repo and checked out stable/cm-11.0 with hammerhead_defconfig.
I used google's arm-eabi-4.8 precompiled toolchain.
To boot:

I've never installed a kernel like that (via fastboot) and I had to look up the headphone UART adapter thing.
I don't have much to offer. I always use mkbootimg to link my kernel and ramdisk, then flash it via fastboot. Looking at your serial dump, the only thing I see is that the base, ramdisk, and tags offsets look completely different from the ones I use with mkbootimg.
BASE=0x00000000
PAGESIZE=2048
RAMDISK_OFFSET=0x02900000
TAGS_OFFSET=0x02700000
I'm playing around with my breadboard and an FTDI USB<-->Serial board I have to try and make a working serial console and I'll see what my N5 dumps.

I guess you're trying to build the N4 cable, but it does not work.
For the N5 to work you need to supply 3V3 and not 1V8 to the VCC
The RX though (serial input to the N5) should be 1V8 (done with a simple voltage divider, try 1K and 1.2K to GND) or there is a chance that you'll fry your serial.

Yeah, my search showed that the N5 version needed no resistors, but I used some anyway just to shunt some voltage. It worked. I got a dump and it does appear that your offsets are not right. Here's my dump up to the kernel taking over:

I see a fastboot option, -b, for specifying the kernel base address. Try with -b 0x8000.
Edit: maybe it's -b 0. looks like the address gets 0x8000 added by default.

Yeah, my search showed that the N5 version needed no resistors, but I used some anyway just to shunt some voltage. It worked. I got a dump and it does appear that your offsets are not right. Here's my dump up to the kernel taking over:

Didn't work.
I also tried to build a boot.img, I flashed it (just to be sure) and I get all the same results.
My tags/device tree is different and I don't know how to change it. There is no available option in fastboot or mkbootimg

mkbootimg has an undocumented --tags_offset option. I don't know why it doesn't show up in the --help. I found it in the source for mkbootimg (in the AOSP tree) when I first ran the unpackbootimg and noticed that it dumped text files containing info about the offsets.
I have a shell script I use to make boot images. Here it is:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
RAMDISK=ramdisk
KERNEL=zImage
BASE=0x00000000
PAGESIZE=2048
RAMDISK_OFFSET=0x02900000
TAGS_OFFSET=0x02700000

echo Making ramdisk image ...

echo Making boot image ...
mkbootimg --kernel ${KERNEL} --ramdisk ${RAMDISK}.cpio.gz --cmdline "${CMDLINE}" -o boot.img --base ${BASE} --pagesize ${PAGESIZE} --ramdisk_offset ${RAMDISK_OFFSET} --tags_offset ${TAGS_OFFSET}
"ramdisk" is a directory containing the unpacked AOSP stock ramdisk (plus my modifications). These offset values were obtained from unpackbootimg executable but I can't remember where I found the source. I'll send you a copy if you want it.

My mkbootimg does not have the tags_offset.
When I try to build the boot image with tags_offset, mkbootimg shows me the help message, which means it got no tags_offset option.
EDIT: Nevermind, I cloned and compiled the latest mkbootimg from here. Trying to boot it now...
EDIT2: IT WORKS!!

Since the AOSP build has to create a boot image, it is included in the utilities. I always use the one native to the build tree. It is in:
[aosp_root]/out/host/linux-x86/bin/mkbootimg
and the source is in:
[aosp_root]/system/core/mkbootimg/

If yes, you must change titan_defconfig using this script

You're from the HTC u11 life! You made that phone awesome while I had it. Good to see you here!

I'm trying to build with 8.1 source and I get errors so build doesn't finish.
Is there anyone that's building successfully with 8.1?

Me, can you explain what are you doing exactly? Which source are you using?

I'm trying with full omni source on 8.1. I've used the device source from both op6 & op6t without modifying just to see if it would be and it fails. I'll post output error soon as I can.
I don't have issues building with 9.0 source after I modify device source but it won't boot to twrp just stock recovery like it's not selecting the rite slot

Make sure if you're using a newer version of Ubuntu with GCC 7+ you do: export LC_ALL=C
That should get you past the initial build errors.

Thanks for the info. I upgraded to linuxmint19 Recently. Guess I didn't pay attention to the changelog.

You also need to change two lines in the build/tools/buildinfo.sh :
echo "ro.build.version.release=$PLATFORM_VERSION"
echo "ro.build.version.security_patch=$PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH"
to:
echo "ro.build.version.release_orig=$PLATFORM_VERSION"
echo "ro.build.version.security_patch_orig=$PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH"

And you need to increase the PLATFORM_VERSION to 16.1.0 ( in the new pixel 3 TWRPs is used 16 ) in build/core/version_defaults.mk to override Google's anti-rollback features

The only issue I found was my lack of awareness. Ive been fighting with the 8.1 source all because the newer os I installed. I'm testing things out.
One thing I know is if the security patch level and date doesn't match what's in the phone then decryption won't work.
So I'm starting there.

I pulled this log from the phone it's only a part of it.
I've been trying everything and this is where it fails at in recovery.
e4crypt_initialize_global_de fail
So I started looking at any logs I can find in the phone and found this. Thought it might be helpful.
All the de folder locations are in the log
Also we use keymaster 4 that shows in The log as well.
I'm still using 8.1 source with 9.0 bootable recovery.
I'm thinking of focusing on trying to get get it to work with 9.0 source.

I pulled this log from the phone it's only a part of it.
I've been trying everything and this is where it fails at in recovery.
e4crypt_initialize_global_de fail
So I started looking at any logs I can find in the phone and found this. Thought it might be helpful.
All the de folder locations are in the log
Also we use keymaster 4 that shows in The log as well.
I'm still using 8.1 source with 9.0 bootable recovery.
I'm thinking of focusing on trying to get get it to work with 9.0 source.
Log.

Was this taken from the default/stock recovery or just a standard boot? I've been using the twrp-8.1 branch (Which uses android_bootable_recovery 9.0 branch by default now). I've tried a multitude of things, but I simply just get the e4crypt_initialize_global_de fail error as well. I think the way things are done for the Pixel 3/XL are the way to proceed, but aside the device tree we don't have much else to go on.

Maybe Fstab files need modifying
The recovery.fstab I pulled out of the boot.Img has a data partition labeled f2fs
And a Data partition labeled ext4

Already tried that but I didn't really get anything different. There's a few issues that are happening I think.
Dmesg repeats this over and over and over:

<14>[19700123_15:34:26.049860]@4 init: starting service 'boot-1-0'...

Then just getting this according to the recovery.log:
I:File Based Encryption is present
e4crypt_initialize_global_de returned fail
e4crypt_initialize_global_de returned fail
e4crypt_initialize_global_de returned fail

This is probably why it won't even boot twrp built with 9.0

Are you doing a minimal build env, or pulling in the entire Omni tree? There is only a twrp-8.1 branch for the minimal manifest, but that does pull in android_bootable_recovery 9.0 branch. I can get both to compile and boot fine.

Alright I'm doing a full sync of the omni repo and will give that a try next. I had been just using the minimal manifest.
