Compile kernel with libllvm

[Nsikak1]

Is it possible to compile the Linux kernel with llvm or is the ndk in termux now Thanks.

[its-pointless]

the ndk is termux by default...
If the kernel is able to be compiled by clang it should work. But i don't think most available kernels for most phones compile with clang. But i do have gcc-7 at my repo and people have compiled kernels on that before.

Unless you are doing kernel dev stuff very specifically you don't want to compile kernel on device though.

Hi "its-pointless" I actually thought the title was its pointless but what if I want to run make (the make command) when I want to compile how will I do that also how can I add the your GCC in termux Thanks.

Closing this as I believe this is out of our scope.

Best course of action would be to first learn how to compile a kernel on a desktop (and there's plenty of guides for that) and then just do the same on device and then fix (if possible) android specific errors that occur.

Not easy as it seems but will update you on my progress
