Help! Need to find the kernel source code for 4.19


Barakav

Recommended Posts

Hey , I need to get the official source code for the last stable version of armbian for orangepi (mainly the kernel):

https://www.armbian.com/orangepi/

meaning version 4.19.y by the given link, but as I look at the source code in github, all I can find are tags and commits for 4.14 and 4.20.

Is there a way to find the commit with the source code for the official release in the given link?

Thanks for your help! but I downloaded the tool and it seems that the 4.19 source version is still not available, I attached a pic of the versions screen from armbian-config. Is this the screen for choosing the right kernel version to download ?

I haven't found any 4.19 version in there.

You downloaded the tool to your desktop PC? :) No no. That will not work. Use tool on the hardware directly:

 

armbian-config -> software

Thanks but I'll have the hardware in a day or two, I only need the source code/the relevant commit in git right now so I will be able to edit and compile the source code for 4.19 myself.

 

I can take the code from the master branch in git but I am not sure which of the 4.19 commits belongs to the last stable supported version that compiles to the image you can download from the site. Is it this one?

 

I checked the debs files and it doesn't look like you can retrieve the source code from them...

Armbian is a build system in its core which, in this particular case, takes this source: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/?h=v4.19.75 add those patches https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/master/patch/kernel/sunxi-next + https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/lib/compilation-prepare.sh and use this config https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/kernel/linux-sunxi-next.config

 

Before compilation starts, sources are packed here: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/lib/compilation.sh#L296-L307

In case you need the last version, grab a kernel source from daily builds: https://beta.armbian.com/pool/main/l/ (which I see now it's missing, bug)

Thanks for your help, but I tried to compile using the code and the configuration from the deb files you mentioned (not through git and those patches) in the last post and I've got an error:

"drivers/net/wireless/xradio/sdio.c:17:10: fatal error: asm/mach-types.h: No such file or directory"

 

what am I missing?

We don't support this feature (building kernel on board - it can work but it can fail mainly due to compiler incompatibility. Why? Build system uses 8+ compilers to solve expensive procedures of adjusting dirty/obsolete code to match stock/latest distribution compiler. This is not as trivial and cheap as on mainstream x86 distribution. Its on you to find out. I gave you all I know from my head, but will not waste an afternoon to solve your problem. Can't afford and its insane.

 

If building with our build system fail - somebody will check and try to fix. We have very small resources ... Since it doesn't fail, bug you encounter, does not exists.
