Missing modules, kernel sources, and headers #1

Closed akhepcat closed 5 years ago

akhepcat commented 5 years ago

There are no links for kernel sources, headers, or other modules; this make further development of the system impossible to use with your update system.

For instance, I can't install wireguard, because there's no headers for compiling the module. Also, I can't use iptables/ip6tables because there are no netfilter/ipt modules.

Please provide obvious links to the source so we can generate our own, or have them as separate (optional) downloads from the update script so that the full, complete system is available.

Thanks!

Thanks for asking! All the sources are in the other repos in this github account. Kernel (and therefore kernel headers): https://github.com/mrfixit2001/rockchip-kernel U-Boot: https://github.com/mrfixit2001/rockchip-u-boot

Additional note: all updates for the update script are available in this repo under a branch for that update version

Hi - I see you've closed this, however the repo for the kernel doesn't provide the dot-config file for how the kernel is configured, nor the system.map or Module.symvers.

Those files are critical for doing follow-up module-building on the running kernel. Can you please provide at least those three files in the filesystem repo?

Thanks

mrfixit2001 commented 5 years ago

The files you are asking about are all generated at the time the kernel is compiled. They are not static or stored elsewhere. When you build the full kernel from source, those files should all be created. There is no additional source for the kernel, header, or modules compilation outside of what is in my kernel repo.

akhepcat commented 5 years ago

Yes - and what's great about you supplying them with your build image is that other people then don't need to perform a full rebuild of the kernel just to generate additional modules. They can simply use the module build system to generate modules that work with the image.

As it stands, there's not even a .config file as a base for recompiling the entire kernel, leaving people wondering what default options to use.

@akhepcat try:

zcat /proc/config.gz >.config

mrfixit2001 commented 4 years ago

Just some additional info: the default configs are in /arch/arm64/configs, named rk3328_linux_defconfig and rk3399_linux_defconfig. These are the base for all my compiles.
