how to compile something for armv7 ?

[Guest mrmrmrmr]

Hi,

I am trying to build tunnel driver (tun.ko) for Steve's Froyo build.

It requires 2.6.32.9 kernel source and modules to be compiled with armv7.

Also ".config" file from /proc/config.gz is required.

However, no matter what I do , I can't compile as armv7.

My config file includes "CONFIG_OPROFILE_ARMV7=y" but when I run make, it changes this option to "CONFIG_OPROFILE_ARMV6=y"

How can I compile with armv7 ?

What am Idoing wrong ?

Thanks.

oprofile isnt a requirement

oprofile isnt a requirement

but whatever I do I end up with a tun.ko filefor armv6. and it's not accepted by the kernel.

How can I make for armv7 ?

Tunnel driver (used for VPN connections) is compiled thanks to DJ_Steve.

You can use this for Dell Streak Froyo build (tested on v1.0)

just place "tun.ko" at /system/lib/modules and run the VPN application of your choice.

I've tested it with "VPN Connections" for Cisco VPNC.

Hi, I'm looking for a tun.ko for my Samsung GT-I5500 Froyo.

Can you upload THIS tun.ko file please?

vermagic=2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv6

It must be just for kernel 2.6.32.9-perf and ARMv6, exactly like your output above. If I#m trying to load this modul an error occurs

# insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)

# dmesg |grep tun

<6>[	1.467749] IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver

<3>[ 1092.896562] tun: version magic '2.6.32.9 mod_unload ARMv7 ' should be '2.6.32.9-perf preempt mod_unload ARMv6 '

Thanks a lot!
