adeb: add prebuilt headers from Android common kernel #11

Closed ErickReyesR closed 6 years ago

ErickReyesR commented 6 years ago

One of the biggest hurdles for new users is the need for kernel source code / headers. This is an attempt to provide a working solution (albeit not optimal) by installing prebuilt headers generated by compiling the Android common kernel for arm64 and x86_64 architectures.

The headers were obtained form the public repository: https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/

Supported versions are 4.9 and 4.14

You mentioned "albeit not optimal". Could you provide some details on testing and if things work well with this?

Also, is there a separate script to general the header zip file? If not, can we add support for that?
