Hi,
i'm an android app developer. I have an HTC Desire and I would test kernel issue for root my device.
For check kernel or software issue, I compile on my linuxbox (on Intel) and binary file run in the same arch that compile it.
In an arm device like my android phone, how can I compile c source file?
We will say: "With an arm croos toolchain!"...
I have read http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/buil...-with-binutils-gcc-newlib-and-gdb-from-source that explain how to build the toolchain, but binary compiler that this steps create not compile a simple "Hello World" program:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello, World!");
return 0;
}
because not have stdio.h header... O_O
So I have downloaded the GNU ARM toolchain binary for linux, but the compiler don't work because I can't run it on my linuxbox...
Why?
mmm... So I have copied the "include" directory from GNU Arm ToolChain to toolchain compiled from source (how explaine the link above).
now stdio.h is present but...
Code:
/tmp/ccfmzOMU.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccfmzOMU.s:11: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `@'
/tmp/ccfmzOMU.s:12: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `@'

How can i build binary elf file for my Desire architecture?
Thanks in andvance!
I am unable to link to any resources here due to them being behind a corporate firewall, but this link I found might help:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-arm-toolchain/index.html
Here is a link to the tools:

Let me know if this is not what you are looking for.
Yes, this is what I need.
Thanks!
Now I've tried to compile my hello world in C for ARM, but the binary not run on my desire... I think that I have compiled with a mistake mcpu parameter.
The result is that if I copy helloworld binary in /data/local path in my Desire, set execution permission and execute the program:
Code:
$ ./helloworld
./helloworld
./helloworld: not found
the output of 'ls -l' command show that helloworld file exist and have 'x' permission...
So I think that is an incompatibily issue of the binary file...
Which one "-mcpu" value is correct for the Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8250 inside HTC Desire?
I've tried any arm7* but it's the same... "not found".
Any ideas?
@azatoth
I get the same on my hero. Tried to run it on a other arm device (Linksys NSLU2) the same "not found" appears

Do you have found a solution for that?
I have no real way to test this, but the Snapdragon is a Cortex-A8 I believe... Try the following:
Code:
-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon
I hope this works, let me know if the behavior changes...

Hello,
I have downloaded the libpcap in external folder from android source code using the Git and
repo. I used the toolcains of ndk (android-ndk-r5b) to compile the library following these
steps:
./configure --prefix=path-to-android-src/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin
make clean
make
make install
and then a file libpcap.a is produced.
I have make a simple sniffer using libpcap (sniffer.c). When I try to compile it, these errors occur:
agcc sniffer.c libpcap.a
sniffer.c:9:18: error: pcap.h: No such file or directory
sniffer.c:19: warning: 'struct pcap_pkthdr' declared inside parameter list

sniffer.c:66: error: 'stderr' undeclared (first use in this function)
sniffer.c:72: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'fprintf'
when I try to produce the object code in advance:
agcc -c sniffer.o sniffer.c
the same errors occured.
Can someone explain me how to solve this problem?
here is the alias of agcc I use in bashrc file:
./configure --prefix=/home/petsas/projects/mobile-attacks/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/
Also, I have attached a file with the outputs of the commands above: configure, make and make install.
Thank you in advance!
I used the options -I and -L to specify the include and library files, and these errors are gone now..
Here is my new error log:
agcc --static -I /home/petsas/projects/mobile-attacks/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/include -L /home/petsas/projects/mobile-attacks/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/lib -o sniffer sniffer.c libpcap.a

I'm not 100% sure, but if you want to build native library for android you shouldn't use ./configure script. You should create Android.mk file and build library using it. Android.mk file is a native build environment for Android.
Refer to android-ndk\docs\ANDROID-MK.html for more information.
Yeah!
Thank you Zuljin!!!
I put the libpcap direcotry into the android-ndk-r5b/samples, I modified a bit the Android.mdk
and the structure of the direcotry, so as to look like the other ones inside the samples dir and
I used the ndk-build command inside the android-ndk-r5b direcory:
ndk-build -C samples/android-ndk-r5b
All worked fine! I was able to produce a libpicap.so file, and put it in the phone using the
commands:
in android:
# su
# mount -o,rw remount /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system/lib
in my Desktop:
$ adb push libpcap.so /system/lib/
I made a simple sniffer, I compiled and linked with the libpcap.so and works perfectly in
my HTC Hero!
Hi,
I have also trying to build this libpcap on Android.
I have downloaded the source from platform_external_libpcap and put all these files under jni directory for a android-ndk project (default) and tried building using ndk-build script.
But nothing happens but the control returns plainly without compiling the .so or .a file.
Can you tell me how you organized the folders in ndk project.?
regards,
Vijayan
Hello Vijayan,
You have to make a directory i.e. libpcap and then inside this directory,
you've got to create another one named as jni and put there all the source
files, as you have done. Then, inside this directory (jni) create a file named as
Android.mk so that it contains the follow lines:
LOCAL_PATH:= $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_SRC_FILES:=\
/bpf_dump.c\
/bpf/net/bpf_filter.c\
/bpf_image.c\
/etherent.c\
/fad-gifc.c\
/gencode.c\
/grammar.c\
/inet.c\
/nametoaddr.c\
/optimize.c\
/pcap.c\
/pcap-linux.c\
/savefile.c\
/scanner.c\
/version.c
LOCAL_CFLAGS:=-O2 -g
LOCAL_CFLAGS+=-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D_U_="__attribute__((unused))" -Dlinux -D__GLIBC__ -D_GNU_SOURCE
LOCAL_MODULE:= pcap
LOCAL_MODULE_FILENAME:= libpcap
LOCAL_LDLIBS := \
-ldl
include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)
Then, you only have to type this command:
ndk-build -C <path-to-jni-direcotry>
That's all! Now, inside the libpcap directory, and in the path:
libpcap/libs/armeabi/ should have been created the file you want:
libpcap.so
Let me know if you have any problems,
Thanasis
Hi,
Thanks. Now I'm able to compile the libpcap.so.
using this .so I have compiled the jpcap-0.7 (C source fiiles) to generate libjpcap.so.
Then I have created my Sniffer Application on Android. I have added the jpcap.jar, jpcap.so and libpcap.so in the lib folder of my Application.
But when I call this line
NetworkInterface[] devices = JpcapCaptor.getDeviceList();
am getting the following runtime error:

Can you tellme What is going wrong here ?
Thanks.

Yes, I had the same problem with you when I tried to make a sniffing application
using another one known java wrapper of libpcap: the jNetPcap, and particularly
I couldn't get the devices through this call: Pcap.findAllDevs(alldevs, errbuf);
That's because, even if you have root privileges on the console of the phone, as
you have a rooted phone, you cannot raun an application as root. That's not possible.
You can do that, only if your application is signed with the key of the platform, that is
of the Android OS that runs inside your phone.. So, the only way is to built by yourself
the Android OS and put it into the mobile. And then you have to sign your application
with the key that you have used to sign the OS.
For more information you can look here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5966603/jnetpcap-on-android-problem-with-findalldevs-method
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
But its very confusing.
Can you tellme, Whether Its possible to run a client application into Android which can monitor the network traffic in the device by anymeans?
If then what are all the possible ways. (like jpcap, etc....)
My idea is to develop a simple client application. I cannot think of building the whole Android OS and loading it into each device.
Hope to get a reply.
Thanks,
Vijay
I haven't done it before, because I only experience with native
programs that do network monitoring..
I think there are two simple solutions here. The first one is what exactly
Shark does: A tcpdump is running in the background that produces
traffic traces (pcap files) and you can develop an application that in periodic
time intervals reads these files and produce some outputs to the user.
The other one solution I can imagine is to develop again a native sniffer in
C with libpcap and then for each packet you receive or better for a batch of
packets you receive, you can send it through sockets to you application for
further processing..
Hope that helps..
FYI: There is a new application in Android called faceniff that does the work of
firesheep. That is you can hijack web sessions from facebook users. How is it
possible this application to monitor the web traffic of the phone? I think that
uses a native sniffer for this.. I am not sure, but it is not open source..
Hi, I did the steps as you described above:
Create a dir 'libpcap' with subdir 'jni'
Download the 'platform_external_libpcap' from 'github.com/android/platform_external_libpcap' (based on original libpcap version 0.9.8) and put the files at 'libpcap/jni'
Change the 'Android.mk' (see post number 6 of this thread)
run 'path/to/ndk-build -C path/to/libpcap/ndk' (android-ndk-r6)
When I do the last step of this list no 'libpcap/libs/armeabi/libpcap.so' will be produced but I get this output (I can reproduce this behavior on ubuntu 10.04 x86_64 and on debian i586):
> <user>@<host>:~/android/libpcap$ path/to/android-ndk-r6/ndk-build -C /home/<user>/android/libpcap/jni

> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
> make: *** [/home/<user>/android/libpcap/obj/local/armeabi/libpcap.so] Error 1

Does someone know what this error means and how to solve this problem?

Can you post your libpcap for us please.
Hey,
first of all, thanks to ph84 for helping me getting the wireless drivers running and all the others who take part on developing Linux on Folio 100.
After this HowTo you'll be able to use wireless on your Folio!
Just follow this post, but add "build-essential" to the --seed part of the rootstock command to get gcc basic libraries for building applications on the folio!
Download the latest version of the compat wireless drivers and the firmware
Put the sd-card/usb-stick in your computer where you extracted your rootstock image to
Extract the wireless drivers source to whatever directory you want
Copy the folio kernel source to /lib/modules/2.6.32.9/build
Extract the ath6kl folder from the firmware tar-file to /lib/firmware
Rename the bdata.SD31.bin to bdata.CUSTOM.bin (needs root access)
Then safely plug out your sd-card/usb-stick, put it into your folio and start it
Open up a shell and browse to the folder where you extracted the driver source to ($ cd /home/ubuntu/compat-wireless-2.6.39-rc1-3/)
select the drivers ($ ./scripts/driver-select ath6kl)
build the driver ($ make)
install the driver ($ sudo make install)
restart and your wireless adapter should be present in network manager
The only problem which is still open is that you aren't able to connect to your WPA-Access-Point directly.
You have to add your Wireless-LAN manually in the network manager..
Have fun with that
Hope we will get the sound and so on running soon!
Thx to erazor & ph84... they had make a great job.
hey EraZoR could you post the files from the build please? i dont have my folio handy and i only have the driver there...
it should be some files called compat-wireless*.so or so...
also, the firmware would be really usefull.
then i can put that in the howto and users dont have to compile for themselves (which takes about 700mb for sources and a lot for build-essential)...
Hi there
first of all thanks for your great work,

it would be great if you could provide your buit files, I don't have to compile them myself though

I didn't found it either, so just left this step out .
I have used the attached .zip file to flash the tablet.
I found this one in a post from ph84 in DerArtem's Linux HowTo in this forum
when I tried to create a root file system using rootstock, I got an error while installing xulrunner, so I left out the
Code:
--seed xubuntu-desktop
parameter and just added the build-essential package via chroot.
result:
I don't have a GUI but I'm able to log into an runnig ubuntu

Same thing for me.
You shuld just create the folder. As for what to download, there shuld be a link somewhere near the top of the page that says "download" and that will give you all you need. (The file list you see below is what is in the download, it is the source for the kernel and all the modules it needs)

I used rootstock with only "--seed build-essential", I got a .img file and created a sdcard.

So I have a running Ubuntu system (only with shell access) but at step 10 when builiding the drivers I have this error:

when running on your folio, do a
$cp /proc/config.gz /some/dir
$tar xvf /some/dir/proc.gz
$cp /some/dir/.config /your/folio/sources/
and retry the build. otherwise it "looks" like you dont have that stuff built into the kernel because were using our own kernel configuration (because its a folio )
good luck

You're welcome.
For the configuration error, you have to run "sudo make oldconfig && make prepare" in "/lib/modules/2.6.32.9/build/".
In a terminal : "cd /lib/modules/2.6.32.9/build/", and then "sudo make oldconfig && make prepare".
You'll maybe also have to run "sudo make scripts" after that.
ok I'll give it a try and report back
Ok I have the same error that all of you...

After searching around , it seems there are several ways to compile Busybox.
Codesourcery toolchain direct compile method
http://mobisocial.stanford.edu/news/2011/02/compile-busybox-on-android-os/
http://omappedia.org/wiki/Android_Installing_Busybox_Command_Line_Tools
Running make gives:
gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory
What exact folder belongs in the path?
What exact statement belongs for the cross compiler prefix in make menuconfig?
Source integration method

This method wants you to include the files with the android source and rebuild.
Is there a way to instead compile this directly?
Scripted NDK compile method
http://matrixrewriter.com/wiki/tiki-index.php?page=Building+BusyBox+binaries+for+Android
This method goes well until near the end of the script when the script returns:
/usr/include/string.h.274: error: expected ')' before '!=' token
I am completely lost after searching for this error.
Which of these three methods, if any, is best? Is there another easier way?
I am attempting to compile Python along with the modules "openssl pil zope2" for Android using the "Python-for-android" project (https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android).
However it is not successful and errors out with the below error:

An error occurred when trying to install zope.security 3.7.4. Look
above this message for any errors that were output by easy_install.
While:
Installing test.

Error: Couldn't install: zope.security 3.7.4
What I am wondering is if anyone else has ever had a similar issue when trying to use the Android gcc, I have build zope.security just fine using the ARM gcc so it is not a platform issue but some bug/issue with the provided Android gcc in the NDK
