Compiling Source

Hi all. I'm trying to compile the froyo source on ubuntu 10.4 64-bit. During 'make' I get this error...
build/tools/apriori/prelinkmap.c(168): library 'libc-ext.so' not in prelink map
make: *** [out/target/product/generic/symbols/system/lib/libc-ext.so] Error 1
I've been searching google for answers for a few days now to no avail. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!!

If I was going to guess I would say it probably has something to do with being in a x64 environment. Have you tried setting up a x32 chroot and doing the compiling from there?
Check on this page for basic guidance
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot

I was afraid you were going to say that. I'm just going to rebuild with 32-bit.

dell kernel source ?

i am trying to compile kernel src from dell with android ndk. i got this error
SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-arm
CC kernel/bounds.s
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-mlittle-endian"
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-mapcs"
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-mno-sched-prolog"

where can i find nvidia src from how_to_build.txt ?
thanks

I told you the other day how to fix that stuff... You're not specifying the cross compiler to use.
export PATH=$PATH:/media3/android/ds7/dev/arm-2010q1/bin
export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
export ARCH=arm
Using CodeSorcery. If you're using something else, substitute, and of course update the path.
As for the nvidia source.. I never did find 2.6.32.9 from nvidia, but I did find this..
http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/build-android-source-tegra-250
From which I was able to grab it. Then I ran into this:
http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/linux-kernel-compilation-error-when-building-confignfsfsm
In the end, either source of the kernel I used, one gave me that the symbol map didn't match (using Dell source 3.36) and the other I kept getting the outer_cache symbol missing (from the nvidia source).
I suspect that it's just a matter of setting up the kernel correctly. I'm using /proc/config.gz but I googled around a bit and some folks here on XDA building a kernel on a phone were saying they had to add some extra parameters given to them by Samsung before being able to successfully build a module that would work for their phone.
Hopefully one of us figures it out... You want CIFS, I want TUN.

echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/alan/android-ndk-r5c/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.4.0/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin
echo $CROSS_COMPILER
/home/alan/android-ndk-r5c/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.4.0/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-eabi-
echo $ARCH
arm
I have set all those path before compile the kernel

I'll be following this thread as I'm trying to figure this out, too (I'm very much a Linux n00b, though, so the progress is incredibly slow). I think the kernel compilation is the main thing holding us back from getting some custom ROMs on here; once the parameters of the build environment are found, we'll probably have an easier time of it (and, good as DJ_Steve is, it would be nice to have a few more devs working this device).
Does this link help at all?

Not really, at least not me.. First off finding nvidia Froyo source was a PITA and I only got it from a clone of the old repo so no tellling there.. Plus the other steps seem to mostly be nonsense, as files don't match up, etc..
Otherwise, I can readily compile the Dell code but the output won't load.. Symbol map does not match; ie: config is different. Maybe even compiler differences.. Dunno.

Im sorry for my noobness, but what would this code actually do for us? Would we then have the ability to compile our own kernels and overclock and whatnot?

Maybe, but I just want tun.ko for now. Still no luck today, switched to Android NDK but still symbol issues.

If u can catch it compiler version is output through dmesg during bootup I don't have me streak handy or I would check. Compiler version may very well play a roll in modules loading though I have experienced it on x86 anyway

I'm going to be adding FTDI VCP support. Figured I'd post here to see what progress others have made... was a little surprised to only find 2 dev pages for this tablet.

Yeah, I've been working on a 2.6.35 kernel myself slowly, but I totally screwed it up and need to start over.

Maybe who try developing kernel should search help in other tegra2 device forums

Any particular forum you have in mind? I did take a look at the somewhat updated Dell Opensource page:
http://opensource.dell.com/releases/streak7/5.06/
But it is definitely aimed at HC, and I don't think it would do much for an ICS build. On the other hand, at least it gives what "appears" to be the source and binaries for the devices (though I'm a little more inclined to use what I was able to pull off the device with ADB).
FWIW...

The info from opensource.dell.com is missing a lot of information.

[Q] ICS on a similar phone

Please forgive me for posting on your forum but I gave googled my problem with no success and the developers for ICS on the Hero have made progress with compiling ICS so I thought I'd ask my question here.
I have successfully compiled ICS 4.0.3 for the ARMv6 using the TeamICS patches here:
hxxps://github.com/TeamICS/ICS_Fixes
(sorry....can't post outside links yet!)
And other relevant pataches like:
hxxp://r.cyanogenmod.com/#change,10532
My phone is the Samsung Intercept with the S3C6410 processor similar to the processor in the Hero. The Intercept ROMs don't use .img files to flash the /system partition so I compiled ICS with: make -j4 otapackage to get a zip.
My dev box is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and everything is installed EXACTLY like the AOSP website says it should be here:
hxxp://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
I flash the zip using CM recovery and boot and this error is killing me:
Warning PackageParser Exception reading AndroidManifest.xml in /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Warning PackageParser java.lang.SecurityException: /system/framework/framework-res.apk failed verification of META-INF/CERT.SF
Warning PackageParser Exception reading AndroidManifest.xml in /system/app/PicoTts.apk
Warning PackageParser java.lang.SecurityException: /system/app/PicoTts.apk failed verification of META-INF/CERT.SF
No apk will load because they fail verification. The list of failed APK's is long in logcat. I even went into the Java source code to hack out the verification code with no success. If any Devs have seen this or know why this is happening I would be grateful for a hint. Thanks.
UPDATE: I flashed the Hero ICS zip to my phone(with a few modifications to prevent a phone brick!) to see if the problem was with my compile or something else and I got the same errors. This must mean that there is something about the way Android checks APK signatures that I don't understand.
More information:
If I run jarsigner -verify -certs framework-res.apk I get "jar verified".
I have a theory about certs being bad at runtime:
In logcat there are entries saying that bouncycastle classes can't be preloaded and I'm guessing that bouncycastle has something to do with cryptographic keys so maybe PackageParser can't use the crypto classes and bombs.

jaybob413 would definitely be the guy to ask, or even mattcrystal. see if they have time to pm back and forth, and even post this in a dev/wip/rom thread in the intercept forums. exciting what these old phones can do, and i hope you go far with your port.

Sorry sir. I personally do not have enough time to look at your problem. I'm pretty busy with Zero Hero at the moment and ICS development is always on going.
When compiling from source the very last thing the complier does is run Google's signapk before finishing the zip. One reason I never got it to work was I was running 32 bit Ubuntu. Jaybob noticed I needed to be running 64 bit to properly compile and after that I'm able to flash my own builds from source. My guess is this is where you might be failing. ICS is a much bigger than gingerbread and tons of changes that are hard to overcome.

Thanks for posting. ICS on the Samsung Intercept is up and running.

Do me a favor and click thanks perhaps and your welcome

no wip/dev thread on the intercept forums yet? that would be awesome, i a know a few with intercepts that would love to see ics on their phones. op you should think about making it happen, at least posting a guide/howto.

[Q] Help building CM for Nook HD+

I've been running CM on my HD+ for the last few months and it's been great. I'm working on making some modifications to the VM and to the kernel and it requires building CM from source. I've already done this with several other devices and have had only minor problems. I'm following the instructions and it can't build. I get the following error:

make: *** /.config: Is a directory. Stop.
I've searched and haven't found a solution but It seems like I'm missing a manifest or something. I'm wondering if this is missing from 10.2 and I should just try building 11 or if there's a way I can build from source.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

No experience building CM but it looks like maybe /.config instead of ./config got invoked?
Sent from HD+ MAG2GA CM 11 from SD

Did you follow this guide? -> http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_ovation (repo init for cm11 instead if cm11 is desired)
Its probably just an error that you made. I don't remember seeing it before.
Edit it doesn't like /.config. That much is obvious. So try to rename or move it or fix your problem to avoid it. (if its ~/.config be careful as that is an important dir.)
There is a .config in /out during building process which is the kernel defconfig file. There is also ~/.config. And that's all I know about that. Look around for .config or google your error with "/.config;" removed and see how the "make: *** is a directory. stop" plain version helps you.

I followed the guide in the wiki but it's a no go. I removed and resynced just in case something didn't pull correctly (wouldn't be the first time). I'm grepping the makefiles for .config to try and narrow down the problem but it doesn't seem to be helping. I've compared the structures of the Galaxy Nexus and the Nook build trees and I don't see any huge differences.
<edit>
Found a bunch of config files but no .config, now I'm even more confused.

It shouldn't be in what you received with the guide as your getting the device repo, but how you did it or something that is not configured correctly on your os.
Its a bit confusing but the error says what it wants and that's the key.
Edit: Tried to get my build to do the same but no go. Out of ideas for you. Sorry
Some other thoughts based on testing:
You get the correct manifest, etc. with the git and repo sync so again its not with what your getting. That all will build it without that weird error.
If there's no .config file in android/system/out/target/product/ovation/obj/KERNEL_OBJ/ then its because it didn't do enough to put one there yet. That shouldn't be the issue as it will rename a .config dir and continue or if it can't then have a different error.
Did you try make clean or make clobber and try building again?

I had someone else try it on an Ubuntu machine and it has the same issue. I'll try to get the verygreen repos instead of the official CM ones see if that helps

Duplicated! ...
You have a .config directory in /
Exactly as the error says as I get the same error only by creating one there. Or I should say the exact same error line and no building.

You're an absolute genius. For some reason I did have a /.config directory, I never even though of looking in the root directories. Must be some strange KDE issue. I deleted it and build kicked off and it's rolling fine now.

I'm having an issue when building cyanogenmod 13.0. It gets to about 20 min into the build, then fails with this error:

I am building CM-13.0 for LG G4 H811 and found the same problem. It's due to
Change 153678 - cmhw: Add PictureAdjustment stubs
which was just merged this morning. This is the sort of glaring bug that will be found and corrected quickly. Sometimes I wonder whether some folks actually build their code before merging it.
Edit to add:
14:00 EDT - I checked the change comments and the senior devs are aware of the problem and are working on it.

It was reverted about 20 minutes ago. You can either repo sync again, or cd to frameworks_opt_hardware and git revert a8ef044be1eb70c0f8a17f0c40d4c5c08bf71593
