The long way to port the Samsung I7500 Galaxy kernel from 2.6.27 to the latest N1 kernel
Thursday, February 4th, 2010The standard Galaxy kernel based on a very old 2.6.27 version and their are lot of changes after this kernel. So i planed to upgrade the kernel to the version which used the N1 Google phone. I prefer to start from the Samsung update3, because it is the latest and i hope the wlan driver has the needed fixes.
I created a diff between the andoid-msm-2.6.27 and update3. The diff-file is 9mb big and shows that 800 files are different.
These subprojects must be ported to the new 2.6.29 kernel, also many other files:
arch/arm/boot
arch/arm/configs
arch/arm/include/asm
arch/arm/kernel
arch/arm/mach-msm
arch/arm/mm
drivers/base/power
drivers/bluetooth
drivers/char
drivers/cpufreq
drivers/dpram
drivers/i2c/busses
drivers/input
drivers/leds
drivers/media
drivers/mfd
drivers/misc
drivers/mmc
drivers/mtd
drivers/net
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/
drivers/serial
drivers/spi
drivers/usb
drivers/video
include
init
kernel
lib
