This directory includes an optimized kernel configuration to produce a fast and light weight kernel for container use.

• config-arm64 includes the kernel CONFIG_ options.
• Makefile includes the kernel version and source package url.
• build.sh scripts the kernel build process.
• image/ includes the configuration for an image with build tooling.

Building

1. Build the Containerization project by running make in the root of the repository.
2. Place a kernel you want to use in bin/vmlinux directory of the repository. a. This kernel will be used to launch the build container. b. To fetch a default kernel run make fetch-default-kernel in the root of the repository.
3. Run make in the /kernel directory.

A kernel/vmlinux will be the result of the build.
