Device Notes: Kernel Requirements

Kernel Config Options

For Systemd you will need to insure these options have been compiled in with your kernel.

• File Systems --->

  • <*> Kernel automounter version 4 support (also supports v3)

• General Setup --->

  • [*] open by fhandle syscalls
  • [ disabled ] Initial RAM filesystem and RAM disk (initramfs/initrd) support

If you don't have other means of dealing with the devices, you'll need to make sure these options are compiled in.

• Device Drivers --->
  • Generic Driver Options -->
    • [*] Maintain a devtmpfs filesystem to mount at /dev
      • [*] Automount devtmpfs at /dev, after the kernel mounted the rootfs

If you are having permission issues with sockets, disable CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK

• [*] Networking Support --->
  • Networking Options --->
    • [ disabled ] Only allow certain groups to create sockets CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK
