I Build Android Kernel (with Module enabled)
1. Kernel source is under android_src/kernel folder
2. Config file is under kernel_src/arch/arm/configs folder xxx_deconfig
3. setup config:
$make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- xxx_defconfig
(.config file can also be created from device:
adb pull proc/config.gz
zcat config.gz > .config
)
4. enable module:
$make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- modules_prepare
5. config and add new things if needed:
$make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- menuconfig
6. build kernel:
$make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- -jX

II Build Module
1. Makefile:
VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 10
SUBLEVEL = 40
EXTRAVERSION = -xxxxxx
EXTRA_CFLAGS=-fno-pic
obj-m += xxxx.o
KDIR=src_to_android_src/source/kernel
PWD := $(shell pwd)
CCPATH := src_to_ndk/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin
default:
make -C $(KDIR) ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$(CCPATH)/arm-linux-androideabi- SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules
clean:
make -C $(KDIR) ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$(CCPATH)/arm-linux-androideabi- SUBDIRS=$(PWD) clean
2. VERSION in Makefile:
Kernel version can be found using the following command
$ adb shell
$ cat /proc/version
3. after build, adb push ...ko /sdcard/; adb shell; insmode ...ko
dmesg see log
adb shell; cat /proc/kmsg
