[INCOMPLETE HOW TO] Reconstruct Mi 4c kernel source

I'm writing this incomplete instruction for my friend @emfox based on the instruction I used to reconstruct Redmi 2 kernel source http://ift.tt/1PoSut8 Unfortunately I couldn't finish this instruction without Mi 4c device. This is just a quick look, short information, to check the possibility to reconstruct an open source kernel based on CAF project. It's will be hard but not impossible.

1. Clone MSM8992 vanilla kernel source, LA.BF64.1.2.2-02940-8x92.0 release for Marshmallow 6.0.1 (release LA.BF64.1.2.1.c1-05410-8x92.0 branch LA.BF64.1.2.1.c1_rb1.38 for Lollipop 5.1.1) http://ift.tt/1PoSuta

Code:

---

git clone git://codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/msm-3.10 -b LA.BF64.1.2.2_rb4.22

---

2. Stock 4c kernel was compiled without CONFIG_IKCONFIG, vanilla kernel config libra_defconfig attached
3. Attached 3 dts file from stock kernel, msm8992-mtp-0xc.dts seem compatible to emfox device (qcom,board-id = <0xc 0x0>; )
4. Attached a vanilla dts file for MSM8992 MTP msm8992-mtp.dts as a result of LA.BF64.1.2.2_rb4.22 built

You can compare msm8992-mtp-0xc.dts to msm8992-mtp.dts using a diff tool (i.e. Kompare app) and start creating device tree source for Mi 4c: msm8992-mtp-libra.dts, msm8992-mtp-libra.dtsi, batterydata-itech-3020mah.dtsi, dsi-panel-sharp-rsp61322-1080p-video.dtsi, dsi-panel-auo-nt35596-1080p-video.dtsi, dsi-panel-lgd-nt35596-1080p-video.dtsi, dsi-panel-sharp-nt35595-1080p-video.dtsi, dsi-panel-jdi-nt35595-1080p-video.dtsi, msm8992-camera-sensor-mtp-libra.dtsi, etc. You can use http://ift.tt/1QyXUAP as a reference. Mi 4c based on same board platform as LG G4 or Nexus 5X. Good luck!
