<div>Like Greg mentioned there has been a lot of effort in getting android kernel mainlined so most probably you will not find any issues there.</div>

<div>Most of the Boards(SOCs) are supported in kernel via device tree, configs etc. </div>

Ok, Exactly i was looking for any changes are there w.r.t BSP in linux-mainline kernel and android kernel but you made me clear with like there will be no changes in linux kernel source code including drivers,dtsi right ??</div>

Yes i do agree i am paying for BSP to the board vendors but i was trying to get the things which needs to changes as my vendor doesnt provide support for android and i want to make android up with my device which have support for linux only.</div>

It all depends on who you got this "BSP" from. You are paying for<br>
support from the vendor whose chip you bought, why not consult their<br>
documentation and ask them for help?<br>

<br>
At the kernel level, there is no difference between "linux bsp" and<br>
"android bsp", it's all just Linux down there.<br>
<br>
And again, ask your vendor for this help, you are paying for it already.<br>
<br>

<br>
Not really, sorry. Please be specific as to what you have tried and what<br>
did not work.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
