Way from SDK to IMG

[dtometzki]

Hello together,

is there a way or description how we move new features from SDK to an Image for example the new released starfive image. For example i can build in SDK new kernel options or drivers but i dont know how to move it to the image. Here is such example to move new kernel feuter to the fedora image https://github.com/starfive-tech/linux

But it isnt usable for starvision2 ?

Best regards Damian

@dtometzki , Now for the JH110 visonfive 2 board, we can support debian. Do you mean how to move the new feature kernel to debian? If so, from my experience, you can run the below:

cd work/linux
export PATH=../buildroot_initramfs/host/bin:$PATH
make ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux- -j8 bindeb-pkg

Then the below files will be generated under work/ linux-headers-5.15.0_5.15.0-1_riscv64.deb linux-image-5.15.0_5.15.0-1_riscv64.deb linux-libc-dev_5.15.0-1_riscv64.deb

you can copy these deb files to the running debian system, and install dpkg -i *.deb

Hello @andyhu-stf,

many thanks for your help. It works perfekt. What is the reason why we dont us the branch JH7110_VisionFive2_upstream in SDK ? Is it possible to use and test it ?

Merry Christmas Damian

@dtometzki JH7110_VisionFive2_upstream is just for upstream which is only contain minimal driver system, like pinctrl, clock tree, plic, clint, serial port, sdio etc. Now we are submitting patches gradually.
