Exclamation [Tutorial] Kernel building instructions for Xperia Z & ZL
kernel sources for Xperia Z (SO-02E) {FW: 10.1.D.0.317} & C660x are {FW: 10.1.A.1.350} [these work for Xperia ZL too] available...

link to download sources:
http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/c....0.317.tar.bz2
http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/c....1.350.tar.bz2


i will post build instructions for developers who plan to work on this device....



Building kernel (zImage):

for Xperia Z (C6600x):
import defconfig
Code:
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- make fusion3_yuga_defconfig
for Xperia ZL (C6500x):
import defconfig
Code:
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- make fusion3_odin_defconfig

build zImage
Code:
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- make -j8

incase u get errors like:
Code:
 error : /scripts/gcc-wrapper.py
just correct the permissions of that file
Code:
chmod 777 ./scripts/gcc-wrapper.py



regards,

Default Instructions for building kernel.elf
Instructions for building boot.img


first get the kernel built... once kernel is built u will get zImage and copy that zImage to the folder containing the mkbootimg files...

i am attaching a tar file which contains the correct mkbootimg binary and a shell script to build this boot.img


Sony has switched to a standard kernel (boot.img) format...

only issue is that the bootloader does not allow hotbooting of kernels
Code:
fastboot boot boot.img
does not work



build boot.img

u can directly use the attached files

or

use the following command:
Code:
mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk ramdisk.img --pagesize 2048 --base 0x80200000 \
     --cmdline "androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0x3F ehci-hcd.park=3 vmalloc=400M androidboot.emmc=true" \
     --offset 0x02000000 --output boot.img
Attached Files
File Type: tar kernel_builder_xperia_z.tar - [Click for QR Code] (40.0 KB, 96 views)

hey Hawkysoft! LONG time no see






@ALL

seems we have a new type of kernel.elf for the Xperia Z/ZL...

it only contains zImage and ramdisk.cpio.gz

i am guessing that the following build command should work:
Code:
python mkelf.py -o kernel.elf zImage@0x80208000 ramdisk.cpio.gz@0x82200000,ramdisk



this information might be valid only for the Xperia ZL as the file i received were for that device...
Code:
10.1.A.1.350-C65
ro.semc.version.sw=1266-7597
ro.semc.version.sw_revision=10.1.A.1.350
since i do not have the Xperia Z/ZL i need some testers... please send me kernel.sin which works for your device so that we can do testing...

I am on a tour right now... will not be available for discussions for a while...

Hi Doomlord, nice to see you here.

Planning to hack some Kernels for the device. I would probably buy it after March.
Can you send me the boot.img? I've downloaded the sources.
Also, if we could get a dump of /proc/partitions , we could probably figure out the size of the boot partition. (Misread your comment)

Cheers.
