Get the linux kernel headers

terateller — Mon, 03 Feb 2014 10:44:03 GMT

Dear All,

I have the freescale imx6 SD board and I have the LTIB ubuntu running on it. When I did a "uname -r" , here is what I see:

3.0.35-2666-gbdde708

However under /lib/modules, I only see the headers for 3.0.35-2508-g54750ff

How/where do I download the kernel headers for 3.0.35-2666-gbdde708 ?

Thanks in advance

Regards,

tera

Hello!

3.0.35 is a Linux version, 2666 - local changes and gbdde708 - git hash.

I think you get similar version after compiling Linux from LTIB, but major only Linux version, local changes and git revision may be difference.

Did you did some changes on your kernel? If yes, build the whole system (./ltib) and flash the rootfs again. The problem is that one you have a rootfs (with certain modules on it) and later you update the kernel (and boot with it), you can see the directory name mismatch as the one you are seen.

Hack: If you did not do any change on the module area, you can do a just create a soft link on the modules where link's name is the uname -r one and points to the current module's folder...

I wanted to compile an application. It asked for the kernel headers. Also I was searching for "tcrypt.c" crypto test program which happens to be under /crypto/ folder in my main LTIB kernel sources. However I don't find it in the booted IMX board with this kernel. I wanted to run this test program so wondered about compiling the kernel with sources
