Adapted kernel sources for Sailfish (esp. XA2) devices, where to download

Hardware Adaptation
#1

Hi,

I was trying to compile some module on device (XA2, 3.2.1.20) and got quite far but insmoding the module fails as kernel is 4.4.189 and latest sources I could find are 4.4.163 (3.1.0.11) which do not match.

I am aware of this TJC thread
https://together.jolla.com/question/199747/adding-kernel-modules-to-sailfishx/

as well as the releases.sailfishos.org
http://releases.sailfishos.org/sources/
http://releases.sailfishos.org/sources/3.1.0.11/sailfish-3.1.0.11-oss-adaptation-sony-nile.tar.bz2
extracted kernel-adaptation-sony-nile-2a7e6eb260868bf0dc0afbfda9a0aed700950d2f

And also the


where I do fail to find 4.4.189 (adapted for Sailfish on XA2)

I do not get this here completely


and do not want to adapt and compile a kernel completely.

But just get the source/build directory.

Does Jolla do not provide this anymore or is it buried somewhere else?
Maybe here:


But here is only 4.4.0 (not 189)

A bit lost and inexperienced :wink:
Does someone has a hint for me?
TIA

So. Really no one?

@HengYeDev posted some work for a Sailfish adaptation on x86_64 architecture. Maybe he’s got some insights or can point you to another porter who might be able to help ?

edit: @Thaodan could have some pointers as well, if he can find the time

Hey,

All steps necessary to download and build kernel sources are listed in these guides respectively for each Android base:

All kernels for these ports are in these git repository:

I also have builds instructions written by me here (private):
