Should Know Something About Kernel Building

  • 配置内核最简单的方法是 make olddefconfig
  • 内核配置保存在 .config
  • 内核源码树里包含命令行修改 .config 的脚本 scripts/config
  • 内核构建依赖 flex, bison 词法分析程序

Build on Ubuntu 22.04

Environment

configuration version
distro Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish
gcc 11.2.0
original kernel 5.15.0-43-generic
building kernel v6.0

Compilation Errors

Errors Resolution

Build on WSL2

Build Config

1
make KCONFIG_CONFIG=Microsoft/config-wsl

Compilation Errors

apt install -y dwarves

这是一个非常常见的依赖问题

  AS      arch/x86/boot/header.o
  CC      arch/x86/boot/version.o
  LD      arch/x86/boot/setup.elf
  OBJCOPY arch/x86/boot/setup.bin
  OBJCOPY arch/x86/boot/vmlinux.bin
  BUILD   arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready  (#3)
  MODPOST modules-only.symvers
  GEN     Module.symvers

新内核生效

  1. mv arch/x86/boot/bzImage /mnt/c/Users/luc/

  2. 编辑 /mnt/c/Users/luc/.wslconfig, 添加下面两行

1
2
[wsl2]
kernel=C:\\Users\\luc\\bzImage

NOTE: 如果以上两行添加进 /etc/wsl.conf 文件，不会有任何作用, 因为 /etc/wsl.conf 不支持 wsl2 Section

  1. 配置完成后，重启 WSL Ubuntu 20.04, 新编译的内核将生效。不要用 wsl --terminate.
1
wsl --shutdown Ubuntu-20.04

打开 CONFIG_DRM_VKMS

1
make nconfig

NOTE: 在 WSL 上不能将配置项置为 ‘M’, 而要 ‘Y’

配置更改后重新 make
