Where in the Android kernel (in source code) can I find kernel-info.mk?
In general, I need to modify the kernel (I'm porting Debian to Redmi 7) and I need to describe all the information about the device in the kernel-info.mk file so that everything starts up
. I think it's better to attach the file that you need to fill out
