Kernel configuration

Kernel configuration

[Chris Tapp]

I thought I knew how to do this, but... ;-)

I'm trying to add configuration items to the valleyisland BSP. I've got the following bbappend:

File: linux-yocto_3.10.bbappend
-------
FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"

SRC_URI += " file://enable-hid-apple.cfg"
SRC_URI += " file://enable-R8169.cfg"

However, these .cfg fragments aren't even getting pulled into the build area.

Adding a reference to a non-existent file is ignored when I would have expected to see a fetch error

SRC_URI += "file://fsdfsdfdsfsd"

What else do I need to do to get my .cfg files pulled in?

How does your layer.conf look like ? Especially, do you have the *.bbappend
files added to BBFILES ?

The bbappend is being found as adding invalid content to it produces a parsing error.

What release / branch is this with ? What you have above is all that you need
to do. I'm not near my development machine, but will be on Monday and can
confirm that something hasn't been broken.

In the meantime, have you dumped the environment to confirm that that your
values really are on the SRC_URI and that something else in the layers
isn't coming along later and clobbering the SRC_URI (unlikely, but worth ruling
out).

If I change my bbappend to use lines of the form:

  SRC_URI_valleyisland-64 += " file://enable-R8169.cfg"

then the fragments make it in to the configuration.

I've never really understood machine overrides that well - I thought that using a plain SRC_URI would apply regardless, but that's obviously not the case ;-)

Thanks for the pointer :-)

Note that this probably doesn't do what you think it does - it'll be _setting_ 
the value to "  file://enable-R8169.cfg" rather than appending to the existing 
value when MACHINE is "valleyisland-64". Overrides and += don't really work 
together because they operate at different times - the += happens immediately 
and then later the override is applied. The correct way to do a conditional 
append with an override is to use _append, e.g.:

  SRC_URI_append_valleyisland-64 = " file://enable-R8169.cfg"

Cheers,
Paul

I thought I had this sorted as it was doing _what_ I wanted ;-)

Hi, I wanted to ask how to enable serial communication in Xenomai. When
compiling the kernel, what parameters should I set?

kernel configuration

[lina]

Hi,

can anybody give me some specific clues during configuration which
make the support of below graphic driver and network connection. if
possible wireless will be great appreciated.

and which is the best version of kernel I should choose.

Really thanks for any advice,

Gee, I didn't notice he was talking about 3 different kernels (I just
presumed where he wrote 2.4.22 that he was writing 2.4.20-8), or 2
kernels and modules from a third.  That *does* make it confusing.  What is
the stock kernel for RH9?  That might help illumine things a bit.

James' guess is as good as any can be at this stage. The original question 
provides way too little information for real help. It is not even clear if 
the question is about kernel source or a precompiled binary. So ...

1. Clarify "configure the kernel". Do you mean run one of the options (make 
config, make menuconfig, or make xconfig) to create a .config file for the 
kernel source? Or do you mean something else?

2. What is the "it" that gives you an error? The configure script? Some 
step in the compile process? An attempt to insmod or modprobe the module? 
What is the EXACT error you get?

3. You only mention kernel 2.4.20-8 and 2.4.18. Is there any version of 
2.4.22 on the system? (actually, I didn't even know there was a 2.4.22 -- 
Debian sources seem only go up to 2.4.21.)

4. If the problem does occur during compile, did you follow all the steps 
needed to compile a new kernel? As outlined in the kernel source README 
file, I mean.

5. If you are talking about a precompiled kernel, not source, be as much 
more specific as you can about what you downloaded. In particular, did you 
download and install the associated modules for the new binary?

Mmmm.  I think it's because add-on modules are compiled for a given
kernel.  They're not supposed to work with kernels for which they were not
compiled.  That said, I've forced one to run with the -f switch and had it
work ok (a NIC module) for me - I think others will advise you against
trying this though, and if you have alot of modules it might not work for
you like it did for me anyway.  So, assuming you've compiled your own
2.4.18 kernel, I'm pretty sure you'll need to compile a new set of modules
for it.  If you didn't compile your own kernel, you'll need to do that
first, since I think to compile the modules you'll need to have kernel
headers available (they only appear in your system if you've compiled your
own kernel).  Please wait for others to respond to your question too,
since I'm not any kind of big authority on this list.

kernel configuration

[Kamil Kompa]

Hi !

I have some troubles with APM, on a kernel that i compile on my own. I have tried many diferrent configurations, but my computer hangs when starting APM.
There are no such troubles when I use kernel which was made when I have installed RH Linux as "workstation". I want to study configuration of kernel that RH 
makes when beeing installed. Can anyone tell me where can I find configuration description of such kernel? Perhaps You can send me a config file?
Thanks.
