Hello,
I've successfuly compiled the kernel for my Tablet with Amlogic 8726-MX SoC, I've also compiled the mali.ko and the ump.ko drivers, but while I'm booting the kernel the init process says that mali session ended.
Is it true that the libMali.so and the libUMP.so are the closed source binary blobs? I'm new to Mali and don't know if mali.ko and ump.ko drivers deliver the complete drivers? I'm know now that mali.ko and ump.ko are the modules for both libraries.
I want to run Android on my tablet, with my custom kernel, /*but from where do I get working Mali drivers?*/ Not necessary, because I'm going to use the libMali.so and libUMP.so provided with the Tablets Android system (only the modules get recompiled, hope it works).
Regards,
Johannes
You can upgrade the kernel you are using just fine - this is why we provide the kernel drivers as source. All I mean is that the version of the kernel driver source which you are building (which comes from a particular rXpY release from Arm) must match the version of the binary libraries in user-space.
How do I find out what version my libMali.so and libUMP.so libraries have?
Im still having problems with the connection between the mali drivers and the mali Moduls, so I've uploaded here the ramdisk from Intenso which was stock shipped: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s5r85393k60jekx/rootfs.cpio?dl=0
Can anyone tell me what rXpY release my Moduls have? Is the release only readable from the library mali drivers?

I need to solve this issue, please thanks!
