I am following this article and generated an initramfs.cpio file.
Now the tutorial mentions that I have to put this file in build directory:
Finally, you have to rebuild the kernel again:
# 0. Copy the CPIO archive to your kernel build directory:
cp initramfs.cpio .
But I dont see any build directory:
[root@xilinx linux-xlnx]# ls
arch CREDITS drivers include Kbuild lib mm README scripts System.map virt
block crypto firmware init Kconfig MAINTAINERS Module.symvers REPORTING-BUGS security tools vmlinux
COPYING Documentation fs ipc kernel Makefile net samples sound usr vmlinux.o
What is the correct place then?
my board is xilinx Zynq based on ARM
kernel initramfs

In the context, kernel build directory doesn't mean the directory named build in kernel source tree, but rather the directory which holds the sources and where the build is happening. So you want to copy your initramfs to your linux-xlnx directory.
