Good evening

I am struggling to add CIFS or NFS support with atvX v4, in order to be able to mount a remote drive from my x96 mini.

The initial rom of the box embedded NFS support so I thought this would be quite straightforward with atvX, but from my understanding, it has neither NFS not CIFS module.

No big deal I thought, I will build the modules myself, so I followed some tutorials. Here is the general approach I ended with:
  1. download the Linaro toolchain (apparently the one used for atvX, but I took the latest version of it)
  2. download android 4.9.113 source from googlesource. After some reading, not sure I should use this one: the Amlogic one would be a better option, but is not publicly available.
  3. got the config file from the box /proc/config.gz, added the cifs and nfs as module through "make menuconfig", and tweaked a bit with some compile parameter after some tries (vermagic, stack protection)
  4. compile the modules, send them to the box and try to insmod them
But so far I could not make it work for CIFS (Not speaking about NFS too much as I am struggling with dependency tree)
The first runs gave me errors I was able to understand and correct by tweaking the compile options, but now I am stuck and lost:
  • insmod returns a generic error
  • dmesg only shows "avc denied" messages (see below), but I guess they are not the reason it does not works, as I managed to install another module (grace.ko, needed for NFS)


Would someone see where my mistake is? Or eventually very kindly provide a working cifs.ko for s905w/atvXv4 ;) ?

Thanks in advance

Below the last dmesg trace I got for insmod
