Hi ,

Is that possible to build kernel 5.3.10 for colibri-imx6ull module ??

I did not see any defconfig for imx6ull in kernel source.

I’m getting error like. no rule to make target zImage …

Hi @nikunjp26

Yes, you can build the Kernel 5.3.y for iMX6ULL. You need to use the imx_v6_v7_defconfig which is located here. You also need to use the devicetree from the same kernel and U-Boot for Bsp 3.0.

Hi @jaski.tx ,

As that Error because of name change of imx_v6_v7_defconfig ??

MY build Command is : MACHINE=colibri-imx6ull bitbake -DDD virtual/kernel -f

Please help here.

The error is more on this place:

make: *** No rule to make target ‘zImage’. Stop.

You could create a colibri_imx6ull_defconfig and put the content from imx_v6_v7_defconfig to this colibri_imx6ull_defconfig.

Hi @jaski.tx

I did the changes in recipe as below :

SRC_URI += “file://colibri_imx6ull_defconfig”

do_print() {

cp -rf ${WORKDIR}/colibri_imx6ull_defconfig ${S}/arch/arm/configs

}

addtask print after do_unpack before do_patch

As well as i tried to copy defconfig in kernel-source but Still i’m getting the same ERROR .

Hi @nikunjp26

We have integrated, built and tested the kernel 5.3.y in master branch of but not LinuxImage3.0 branch. You need to check out the master branch or import the changes from master branch to LinuxImage3.0 branch.
