Samsung S96901AA1 kernel

Repo manifest for the Samsung Galaxy A14 5G (SM-A146P, a14xm) Android 15 kernel. The manifest branch and board configuration are S96901AA1; the SoC is MediaTek MT6833.

The Samsung BSP package separates three components:

• kernel-6.6: Samsung/MediaTek common kernel, based on Android 15 / 6.6
• kernel_device_modules-6.6: device drivers, device trees and board configs
• vendor/mediatek/kernel_modules: out-of-tree MediaTek vendor modules

The checkout root is the Bazel workspace. Patched Kleaf lives in build/kernel, and MTK integration rules live in build/bazel_mgk_rules.

The manifest retains links for build entry points such as WORKSPACE and tools/bazel; their targets stay inside the workspace. Relative directory links to source trees outside the workspace can break when Bazel remaps source paths inside its sandbox.

Sync and build

Use a new checkout directory when migrating from the previous nested kernel/ workspace. Preserve local commits and uncommitted changes in the old checkout until the new checkout has been verified.

repo init -u git@github.com:samsung-mediatek/android_kernel_manifest.git -b S96901AA1
repo sync -c -j4
./build_kernel.sh

The wrapper generates the configuration for project mgk_64_k66 in user mode, using mediatek-bazel_defconfig plus mt6833_overlay.config, S96901AA1.config and S96901AA1_debug.config. It then calls the supplied MTK build script: build common kernel, build device/vendor modules, install modules, and collect artifacts.
