WHAT IS THIS?

Linux Kernel source code for the devices:

  • Sony XPERIA L1

BUILD INSTRUCTIONS?

Specific sources are separated by releases with it's corresponding number. First, you should clone the project:

    $ git clone -b v3.18.35 https://github.com/PineDevelopment/kernel_sony_pine.git kernel

At the same level of the "kernel" directory:

Download a prebuilt gcc

    $ git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9 -b nougat-release 

Create KERNEL_OUT dir:

    $ mkdir KERNEL_OUT 

Your directory tree should look like this:

  • kernel
  • aarch64-linux-android-4.9
  • KERNEL_OUT

Finally, build the kernel according the next table of product names:

device product
Sony XPERIA L1 pine
    $ make -C kernel  O=../KERNEL_OUT  ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=../aarch64-linux-android-4.9/bin/aarch64-linux-android- pine_defconfig
    $ make O=../KERNEL_OUT/ -C kernel ARCH=arm64  CROSS_COMPILE=../aarch64-linux-android-4.9/bin/aarch64-linux-android-

You can specify "-j CORES" argument to speed-up your compilation, example:

    $ make O=../KERNEL_OUT/ -C kernel ARCH=arm64  CROSS_COMPILE=../aarch64-linux-android-4.9/bin/aarch64-linux-android- -j 8
