Thanks for reaching me out on my personal emails! My friend Runa is trying to make it Waydroid work by using the openSUSE's KMP but I guess since binder is present on the kernel in main branch, so ditching the KMP packages is good solution. Also, I have many tries to build the customized kernel but it failed and nothing helpful. > From what I've gathered the necessary options to add are: > > CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=y > CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS=y > CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_DEVICES="binder,hwbinder,vndbinder" > > does that match with your experience? This is a real equipment that Waydroid needs to get work, but these config didn't exists in openSUSE Kernel. > Also a related question: do you know if there have been any attempt to > request > these changes from the openSUSE maintainers?

Sounds like for the modules, we need to reach the openSUSE kernel maintainers and discuss about the binder integration. You can reach them by sending the binder integration issues on their mailing list (https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/kernel@lists.opensuse.org/). > Anyway, hope you weren't bothered by me contacting you out of the blue > and I > wish you a fantastic day! It's okay! Don't worry about it. You can reach me everytime you're free. That's it from me, reply it if you have an idea. Regards Jim
