No, i gave up compiling on Armbian, i installed the debian bookworm server image provided by orangepi instead

I tried with the orangepi's own debian bookworm server image , and the module installed fine with the kernel.org source code and linux-headers deb package they included in /opt folder

I still get the format error with the compile.sh generated kernel source , along with this dmesg error: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'module': Exec format error .gnu.linkonce.this_module section size must match the kernel's built struct module size at run time

This 3rd party module needs both kernel headers and kernel source. The Makefile bundled with the code applies patches to an existing kernel module source code and compiles it. I ran the build script on a separate debian vm and created a tarball of the source tree. i will try to transfer it to the opi later today.

I set the version in userpatches/lib.config , then executed this: ./compile.sh BOARD=orangepizero2 BRANCH=current kernel-config KERNEL_BTF=no KERNEL_GIT=full and when the kernel menu came up, just exited to shell. Is this the kernel source directory I can point the compiler script of the module ? /build/cache/sources/linux-kernel-worktree/6.12__sunxi64__arm64$ ls arch COPYING defconfig fs io_uring Kconfig LICENSES mm rust security usr block CREDITS Documentation include ipc kernel MAINTAINERS net samples sound virt certs crypto drivers init Kbuild lib Makefile README scripts tools

Hi, I need linux kernel source to compile a custom module. The one I downloaded from kernel.org did not work, got module format error, indicating the kernel is different. i did not have this problem compiling the same module for Armbian lepotato (amlogic) Where do I get the kernel source for my Orangepi Zero 2?

Ok here it is: https://paste.armbian.com/toqukabuje

I believe I have the same issue on lepotato and bookworm armbian-bsp-cli-lepotato-current : Depends: base-files (>= 24.8.2) but 24.5.1-12.4+deb12u5-bookworm is to be installed

Investigating the "TriggeredBy: ● ssh.socket" line on this machine, I found a Ubuntu article and disabled ssh.socket service. This appears to be present in armbian debian release only. A Google search for "bookworm ssh.socket" only results with another armbian user reporting it on a community build version of another board.

Yes , this fixed the memory . Thanks ! I can no longer edit the post subject - to mark it solved.

Where was I supposed to apply this, /boot/armbianEnv.txt ? so far no luck, memtotal 882 MB again https://paste.armbian.com/ereciriyon

Thanks, I am in a change freeze now on stable 6.1 kernel , will revisit after Apr 8th.

It does not let me roll back kernel, but offers me a newer kernel. I could just flash the image again and freeze the armbian kernel upgrades to stay on 6.1 ?

I have flashed the last 23.8 bookworm lite image to my lepotato 1GB model, and it launched with 927 MB total memory. running apt update ; apt upgrade ; reboot it drops to 862M How can I reclaim the remaining memory? This is mostly a headless server i do not need any GPU. just basic hdmi output for troubleshooting purposes. before: Welcome to Armbian 23.8.1 Bookworm with Linux 6.1.50-current-meson64 System load: 8% Up time: 4 min Memory usage: 13% of 927M IP: CPU temp: 48°C Usage of /: 4% of 29G After: Welcome to Armbian 24.2.1 Bookworm with Linux 6.6.16-current-meson64 System load: 19% Up time: 1 min Memory usage: 13% of 862M IP:
