Hello! Is it possible to use linux kernel 2.6.31 with android 2.1? I have red at http://pdk.android.com/online-pdk/guide/bring_up.html that linux kernel for android need support only: # # Android # # CONFIG_ANDROID_GADGET is not set # CONFIG_ANDROID_RAM_CONSOLE is not set CONFIG_ANDROID_POWER=y CONFIG_ANDROID_POWER_STAT=y CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGGER=y # CONFIG_ANDROID_TIMED_GPIO is not set CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=y
However in /core/init/init.c i found that it uses ASHMEM device. But there is no support for ASHMEM in 31 kernel. So what about this? Also i red in some forums regarding CPU TLS hardware register. Some new platforms (for ex. cortex) has it's hardware support, some - doesn't. What about Android? Does it use hardware or software TLS? Also i didn't find armv6 architecture in Android buid system. Only armv5te and armv7. Will android support armv6 architecture, or is there any patch available to support armv6 architecture in Android?
