I dont need the total functionality of a driver. I need a small (almost miniscule) extension, thats it. On Nov 12, 8:04 am, Earlence wrote: > would you care to enlighten me? > > On Nov 11, 11:06 pm, Dianne Hackborn wrote: > > > That is so very wrong. > > > Write a driver. > > > On Thu, Nov 11, 2

Re: [android-kernel] implementing custom system calls

That is so very wrong. Write a driver. On Thu, Nov 11, 2010 at 5:26 AM, Earlence wrote: > Hi, > > I need to implement a custom system call on msm2.6.29 > I am following: > http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Implement-Sys-Call-Linux-2.6-i386/ > > But I cannot find the syscall_table.S for the ARM

[android-kernel] Re: implementing custom system calls

I found it. For ARM archs, it is "calls.S" Cheers, Earlence On Nov 11, 2:26 pm, Earlence wrote: > Hi, > > I need to implement a custom system call on msm2.6.29 > I am > following:http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Implement-Sys-Call-Linux-2.6-i386/ > > But I cannot find the syscall_table.S for t

Hi Erlance, You can add them to the init.rc script then init will do it each time you boot up. Here is some info on how this is done: http://www.kandroid.org/android_pdk/bring_up.html Good luck BR Lekanovic 2010/11/11 Earlence > I found the p

[android-kernel] Re: iptables on msm2.6.29 (donut)

[android-kernel] implementing custom system calls

Hi, I need to implement a custom system call on msm2.6.29 I am following: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Implement-Sys-Call-Linux-2.6-i386/ But I cannot find the syscall_table.S for the ARM arch. Is there a different procedure to do this? Cheers, Earlence -- unsubscribe: android-kernel+uns

Hi, I have downloaded and built msm2.6.29 I also modded the msm_defconfig to allow module load/unload as well as netfilter config that is identical to the goldfish settings I used earlier. The build goes fine, and I obtain the zImage I then flash to mtd2 (HTC sapphire) and the boot up is correct.
