How to compile kernel modules for Manjaro ARM?

[sora]

I’m playing with packet radio recently and I’m planning to run Direwolf and Pat on my Tv box. Everything is fine except that the kernel lacks hamradio modules: (Lacks mkiss in particular)

sudo kissattach /dev/pts/1 wl2k
kissattach: Error setting line discipline: TIOCSETD: Invalid argument
Are you sure you have enabled MKISS support in the kernel
or, if you made it a module, that the module is loaded?

The detailed module list could be checked here:
hamradio modules

My Tv box is currently running with linux-odroid 5.18.5-1 so I checked manjaro-arm / packages / core / linux-odroid · GitLab. Howerver it did not seem like “make menuconfig” style nor could I compile modules separately. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[HowTo] Build your very first custom kernel

Difficulty: ★★★★☆ If you compile your own custom kernel, you’re basically creating your own distro, so before you post any support questions here on the forum, please revert back to the Manjaro kernel first! To start, grab the Linux kernel source. Go ahead and head to kernel.org, and choose the kernel you want to compile. I’ll use the mainline kernel as an example, which is 5.11-rc2 at the time of writing this post. You can grab it with git clone or wget the download link to it if…

[HowTo] Build a (patched) kernel module

Difficulty: ★★★★☆ Sometimes the need arises to apply a patch to a kernel module for testing purposes or to fix a regression. The below example uses kernel 5.10 as this was the procedure I followed for a non-working Bluetooth adapter on kernel 5.10 prior to 5.10.7-2.

Install needed packages for building and source control

pamac install base-devel git

Install matching kernel headers

pamac install linux510-headers

Clone matching repository for manjaro kernel

mkdir ~/MyKernel #Where you obviously ch…

You need to enable CONFIG_AX25 to get access to CONFIG_MKISS.

config · master · manjaro-arm / packages / core / linux-odroid

Uncomment this line to get the PKGBUILD to execute make menuconfig.

Or you can open an issue in the citlab repo to request that it gets added as all our main kernels have it.
