Hi everyone,I have been following the Kernel Hacking steps to submit my first patch but I am facing problem in the kernel compilation as its taking more than a day may be due to low computing resources..I have Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with 4GB DDR3 ram 1 TB HDD, Intel i3 2.GHZ and 4 cores but I have been using virt-manager for the kernel development with CentOS 8.1 (minimal req.) and resources 70 GB storage, 2 GB ram and 2 cores.
Thus if anyone could suggest how much computing power to have or any other method so that I could make my development process smooth.
The configurations of your pc are fine.
My personal computer has the same specs with a slight difference that I have 12 GiBs of main memory.
I had the same problem in the beginning (tho I started only a few months ago).
I suggest you use `make -j4` or a higher number for compilation.
And now my system does the compilation in less than 30 minutes.
What options are you using while building the kernel ??
