I want to build kernel applied with rt-patch. Latest rt-patch version is for 4.9.13. So, How can I get the result? I think I should edit configuration.sh and then, put the patch file to userpatches/kernel directory? I need a kernel for nanopi-neo.

 

You don't need to edit anything. Just put the patch into:

userpatches/kernel/sun8i-dev

and (try to) recompile kernel.

 

But we are using developing branch version 4.10.1 ... there is not much support in mainline www.kernel.org ATM.

Thank you, Igor. I got the clean previous script. and newly git clone the package (armbian lib) 

 

Like you said, put the rt-patch in userpatches/kernel/sun8i-dev

 

and #./compile.sh

Well, this means patch does not fit the source and you need to adjust it. It might take few minutes or a day.

 

This will tell you which files have troubles, next you have to manually fix the patch.

cat output/debug/patching.log

 

I understood. Then, How I designate kernel version to 4.9.3? I think it might be build without problems.

If you want to compile a generic kernel this would be a proper way, but not here since:

 

- decent H3 support exists only in this branch

and

- our patches are aligned only for this branch

Thanks a lot. I have to wait for 4.10.x rt-patch.
