customizing the kernel for A13 board

[khamar24]

Hi all,

Is it possible to customizing the kernel for A13 board downloading from kernel.org?

If it is possible, kindly post the steps.

I don't  know if it's possible.
I suggest you run a diff between kernel from kernel.org and linux-sunxi at github. I believe the current linux-sunxi version is at 3.4.75.
You will probably find there are too many differences from mainline kernel.

google linux-sunxi.  There are a couple of github repositories, as well as a google group.

There is a major effort seeking to mainline A1x support, There are a large number of different low costs systems, tablets, video systems android devices, cubieboards, olinuxino's based on the Allwinner CPU.

Depending on what features you need you can build and boot very near the latest kernel.org Linux kernel.
But support for some hardware - mali and cedarx are moving forward very slowly. If you need these you are stuck with something nearer 3.4.

For now is not possible. Rather kernel.org use https://github.com/mripard/linux/tree/sunxi-next

mripard is the maintainer for sunxi mainline.
