<takatuk> hi, is it possible to run stock android kernel completely from sd card? boota?
<takatuk> anyone out there?
<TestModule> Yes
<TestModule> There is an article on miniand forums about it
<takatuk> can u provide the link? me is not talking about recovery from sd btw

<dw> bsdfox_: i'm in prepurchase phase, have yet to find anything resembling ioperf output for the onboard sata
<dw> you'd think if it made such a difference over usb, someone would've written something somewhere
<WarheadsSE> get me a board with sata, i'll get it for you
<WarheadsSE> I suspect it is noticable
<dw> ordered one and it was seized by customs :( currently about to order another
<WarheadsSE> lol
<WarheadsSE> ive never had anything seized
<dw> apparently estonian customs got real tight after the credit crunch. ordering the new one to the uk
<dw> (and flying to pick it up, sigh)
<WarheadsSE> lol
<WarheadsSE> sry, that does suck though
<dw> aliexpress also have some insane 3 month refund policy, so i haven't got money back yet
<bsdfox_> dw, I get reasonable sata performance on my mele a2000
<bsdfox_> ~40MB/s writes
<dw> what is cpu like?
<dw> for big sequential io it probably wont beat usb on throughput, but on load it may do
<dw> also, any experience with A2000G? seems you can now get 1gb ram since i ordered my last one :)
<bsdfox_> 4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 115.713 s, 37.1 MB/s

<dw> dles
<bsdfox_> and no, I've got the 512mb one
<dw> doesn't saturate the cpu :)
<bsdfox_> dles?
<dw> type :)
<dw> damnit. typo.
<WarheadsSE> bsdfox_: only 40MB/s writes?
<WarheadsSE> damn
<WarheadsSE> that sucks

<bsdfox_> I haven't tried a usb hd yet.. I will
<dw> would be interested in if it's worse or not. just because it has onboard sata doesn't mean the controller isn't the dumbest silicon ever etc :)
<dw> but those numbers are already better than i expected

<rz2k> is that ok that I cant start Xorg with both xf86-video-mali and xf86-video-fbdev (both standard and from ssvb) when using VGA output?
<rz2k> probably one of the Hans patches killed it.
<rz2k> mnemoc: techn: ssvb: ^
<rz2k> stage branch by the way
<ssvb> rz2k: right at this moment I'm running the latest sunxi-3.0 branch with VGA+HDMI dual monitor setup and successfully loading/unloading disp/lcd/hdmi modules
<ssvb> rz2k: does the framebuffer console work?
<rz2k> yes
<rz2k> I have segfault after DPMS init
<rz2k> or after fbdev_crtc_config_resize
<ssvb> rz2k: check dmesg log
<rz2k> also disp yells with fail to give a layer
<rz2k> I have something weird going on, surely
<rz2k> could you please share a .config?
<rz2k> I can miss something entirely obvious
<rz2k> also as you seem to have vga/hdmi, you are using mele, could you please post a .fex for this setup?
<rz2k> I didnt try to do this
ZaEarl has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds]
<ssvb> rz2k: I also had troubles with the mali blob for dual monitor setup (before and after this merge), but at least simple fbdev works
<ssvb> rz2k: for dual monitor setup, I'm using this fex file - https://gist.github.com/4481360
<ssvb> rz2k: found it by trial and error method, and only vga for /dev/fb0 and hdmi for /dev/fb1 actually seemed to work (changing the order of vga and hdmi fails)
<ssvb> rz2k: if using modules, they can be loaded as "modprobe lcd && modprobe hdmi" ("disp" and "fb" are pulled automatically), any other order seems to also have glitches :)

<libv> hramrach: when X is up and running with mali, porting the test should be rather trivial
<libv> figure out the proper nativewindow type for it, and find out how to set it up properly when you do so, then figure out a way to switch between both window types
<libv> i am sure that the X11 native window type is going to pretty standard and definitely not as obscure and as the mali native window type was

<nemik> mnemoc: thanks, i commented out those lines from the hwpack script and it did build fine
<mnemoc> you shouldn't need to comment out anything
<mnemoc> the script will not fail if boot.scr is missing, it will only rant
<nemik> oh? it failed for me, maybe it needs a fix.
<mnemoc> Debian/Ubuntu hwpack
<mnemoc> cp: cannot stat `build/boot.scr': No such file or directory
<mnemoc> Done.
<mnemoc> ^--- that is a success
<mnemoc> output/ will have your hwpack
<nemik> ahhh my bad, i was misreading it then
<nemik> thanks
<mnemoc> if you see the "Done." it went fine
<nemik> so now that I have a hwpack, i'd like to compile android to make my own firmware i could flash with LiveSuite. so i did 'make android'. it was retrieving the CM repo for a while and then stopped at
<nemik> build/core/product_config.mk:189: *** _nic.PRODUCTS.[[device/*/mk802ii/cm.mk]]: "device/*/mk802ii/cm.mk" does not exist. Stop.
<mnemoc> sunxi-bsp still doesn't learn to generate device trees
<mnemoc> you (still) need to make your own device/allwinner/$board/
<nemik> so in my case 'device/allwinner/mk802ii/' and then fill it with Android.mk and all that? is there a reference for the MK802 for this?
<mnemoc> that should work.... i think
<mnemoc> it's from Turl
<nemik> what is Turl btw? i hear it mentioned a lot
<libv> nemik: /whois Turl
<mnemoc> Turl: sorry, you are an "it" now
<nemik> hah sorry, i thought it was a name for a service of some kind. hello Turl! thank you for the device tree
<libv> what kind of services does Turl provide?
<libv> or nm, i do not want to risk finding out
<nemik> yea, this place doesn't quite have the same vibe as the fserve/xdcc channels
<libv> well, there is always the nouveau fuc and the pvr perfserv
<libv> oh, and pvr pdump
<nemik> BTW, are you all using gcc-4.7 for the arm eabi builds? the sunxi uboot was failing with 4.4.3 for me, didn't try the ones inbetween
<mnemoc> 4.6 here
<nemik> hmm ok, i'll see how 4.7 turns out and re-compile if it's bad.
<nemik> also, last night i had an error with: error: arch/arm/boot/compressed/piggy.gzip.o: unknown CPU architecture
<mnemoc> nemik: please send a mail to the ML about it
<nemik> should i file a github issue?
<mnemoc> no, ML
<nemik> will do, any specific format to follow or just what i told you guys?
mSquare has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<mnemoc> describe the problem and point to the proposed fix
<nemik> sorry, which ML, the sunxi one or general arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk ?

<nemik> alright
<hramrach> libv: you will probably have to open a X window and pass it the the GL call
<hramrach> not hard but Mesa demos do that so just use those
<hramrach> so in the end the demos work but gnome refuses to start the accelerated WM
<hramrach> and does not tell you why, of course.
<nemik> oh goddamnit, android requires x64 doesn't it?
<nemik> no wonder the prebuilts aren't executing :(

<techn> mnemoc: One moment.. I'll eat first :)
<mnemoc> :)
<techn> 30mins or so :)
<libv> hramrach: _i_ would first have to set up things properly to work with X, which means more time away from lima.
<mnemoc> np
<libv> which is why i am hoping that someone else will port this for X, so that people can quickly and easily test that things work
<hramrach> libv: things work with X just fine
<libv> if you have done the setup, yes-
<hramrach> just a note somewhere that the test program only works with bf so far is fine
<hramrach> I did no setup
<libv> i have q3a running just fine on FB, and i am now working on bringing it up on lima.
<hramrach> not more than replacing the libmali

<libv> if people depend on it only working on fb, it will never get fixed.
<libv> it's like with the openchrome people and my stance on modesetting
<libv> the whole planet took up my view on modesetting
<libv> but not before openchrome forked away
<libv> and openchrome is still struggling to put their mess together, they have 3 independent codepaths to do modesetting and none works properly
<libv> as the users just try one of them until it works, only when none of them works is there a complaint

<mnemoc> welcome ithamar
<ithamar> hello mnemoc
<techn> ithamar: hi :)
<ithamar> hi techn
<barqux> mnemoc: yes, the allwinner a10, ty
<techn> ithamar: your image unpacking/packing tool is the best.. It works with a13 images too :)
<ithamar> techn: nice! Only tested it with a10 images so far (have 8 A10 tabs here)
<ithamar> would have done more work on it, but got distracted by a payed contract (non-Allwinner related sadly)
<techn> I haven't tested image flashing yet.. how well that part works?
<ithamar> that's the biggest part that's work in progress
<nemik> so the android code contains "android/device/allwinner/mk802ii/BoardConfig.mk:TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := mk802ii_crane_defconfig"
<libv> ithamar: hrm... your ip is dutch.
<ithamar> libv: I _am_ dutch
<libv> ithamar: then hi, i believe we talked about some telechips tablets soon 2 years ago
<nemik> but that does not seems to exist in linux-sunxi/arch/arm/configs/. should i change this to 'sun4i_crane_defconfig'?
<libv> i sending that "smartbook" mess i was trying to use over to naobsd, and then used a haipad over adb instead of trying to hook up serial
<libv> +ended up
<techn> ithamar: now I got that other mail :D
<mnemoc> nemik: yes, that should do
<ithamar> libv: I'm still hoping to get around to pushing my Telechips mainline support (tcc92xx,tcc88xx)
<libv> ithamar: really?
<ithamar> libv: yup, have all the basics running
<libv> i have three haipads here now, simply because that's what my documentation was written on
<libv> ithamar: i do not suppose that there is working userspace mali drivers available for a gnu system?
<ithamar> techn: I'm hoping to have some time for the flashing part for A10 tabs over the weekend.... assuming RL leaves me alone ;)
<libv> that would mean that i might be more tempted to keep mali200 support up to date
<ithamar> libv: not that I am aware of currently :(
<libv> crap, little chance of ever having fully tested mesa support for mali-200 then
<ithamar> libv: Now I must be honest and say that I've only been doing Android lately, so I might have missed out on something
<libv> you're statement just now was the first useful sign of life i noticed on telechips in a year
<ithamar> heh
<libv> that soc is soon, what, 3 or 4 years old
<ithamar> well, there's the 8920 or such
<libv> i grabbed one of those square tv boxes off of ebay as well
<libv> ah, but those are already mali-400 i suppose
<ithamar> I think they are indeed
<ithamar> have one 7" tab with that, but haven't had the chance to look closer
<libv> the only secret that hw different than the A10 can offer me on the mali side is mp2-4, and even then it will not be too earthshattering :)
<libv> so the a10 does me well for mali work in the meantime :)
<ithamar> yeah I can imagine libv
<libv> ithamar: get yourself a proper irc client (irssi), and run it in screen somewhere, there's loads of interesting stuff flying past in this channel.
<ithamar> libv: will do, just doing the web thing right now as I'm in a hotel on my laptop
<libv> the freenode web interface is not going to suit things too well
<ithamar> will set things up nicely over the weekend
<libv> ok :)
<ithamar> hehe I know
<ithamar> so should my image packing/repacking stuff be merged into sunxi-tools?
<ithamar> what would be the best place to put it?
<techn> ithamar: it would be great.. your repo would be great replacement of https://github.com/linux-sunxi/allwinner-tools
<ithamar> well, it is a start at least
<techn> that repo is closed source only.. but since your repo has everything allwinnet-tools has.. we don't need that :/
<ithamar> please understand awutils is very much a work in progress...
<ithamar> lots of time spent in IDA and such to figure things out
* ithamar pets UsbSnoop too ;)
<mnemoc> please add http://linux-sunxi.org/LiveSuit_images to your TODO :p ... that page is begging for some info about the format
<ithamar> mnemoc: ah yeah that page ;)
<andoma> ithamar: is it possible to read out data using the same protocol?
<techn> ithamar: do you know something about those other tools.. seems that they are trojans?
<ithamar> andoma: yes it is, I've seen traces of that
<mnemoc> ithamar: :)
<techn> atleast f-secure antivirus warned about trojan :(
<ithamar> techn: unimg.exe is not, it is probably picked up by anyvirus because it has some smart "obfuscating" applied
<ithamar> techn: it did not look nice in IDA either
<ithamar> techn: unimg.exe is okay, but generates absolutely useless filenames...
<ithamar> techn: imgrepacker.exe was my initial reference, much more useful, but crashed on a couple of my images :(
<ithamar> andoma: techn: once I can find some time I'll update the fes tool with the new commands I discovered
<ithamar> the tool currently uses AW_FEL_1_READ/WRITE commands, but there seems to be a version "2" of those commands these days
TestModule has joined #arm-netbook
<Marex> fuck :/
<mnemoc> amen
<ithamar> LiveSuit also seems to be writing a SYS_PARAM structure to the storage that includes the "add sum" checksums of images
<Marex> android 4.1.2 won't fit the MK802 anymore
<Marex> I just rebuilt it from scratch and the flash is too small
<ithamar> Marex: start slimming it down
<ithamar> Marex: probably the media (ringtones and such) would be an easy way to start
<Marex> ithamar: yea, that's about the only option
datagutt has quit [Quit: kthxbai]
<mnemoc> ithamar: is it possible (for future) to extend your tools to support larger partitions?

<techn> Cool.. does awutils have tools to replace these https://github.com/linux-sunxi/allwinner-tools/tree/master/bins (re-checked repo)
<ithamar> mnemoc: should not be a problem
<mnemoc> awesome
<techn> or are those even needed when we have your way to flash?
<ithamar> mnemoc: the SYS_PARAM thing I just mentioned contains the partition layout too

<ithamar> techn: some of those I already have sources for
<ithamar> FileAddSum is really stupidly simple
<ithamar> mkbootimg is probably just the one from the AOSP tree
<ithamar> u_boot_env_gen is in the u-boot source tree I think
<techn> yes :) I was going to replace those with opensource ones when I have booting image
<ithamar> and there's already mbr tooling in https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools iirc
<Marex> I take it for android, I still need the old allwiener kernel binary, right ?
<ithamar> so all the tabs in the sunxi-boards dir boot from with linux-sunxi kernel repo?
<ithamar> Marex: that's what I am interested in as well ;)
<ithamar> Marex: In theory you should be able to use a self-build kernel, as long as it has the Android "extensions" enabled
<ithamar> Marex: But I have not tried that in practice yet so far
* ithamar sees a busy weekend coming up
<Marex> let's see where I can get with all this crap
<techn> ithamar: these we have "nb's" http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/amery/sunxi-3.0/latest/
<techn> ithamar: but I think those all should work fine, if there is u-boot implementation for that board
<mnemoc> I only build hwpacks for boards with u-boot config and verified .fex...
<ithamar> There's a real prob with those chinese tab manf.
<mnemoc> but the kernel defconfig needs so serious love to be interesting for real life
<ithamar> If they change the hardware, they only update the kernel, and not the sys_config stuff on a regular basis
<ithamar> have two tabs with different touchscreen chips, but the sys_config is exactly the same
<ithamar> they just insmod a different driver in the init.rc in android :(

<mnemoc> please use a10meminfo to get proper dram_para info and verify/complete the .fex
<ithamar> there are instructions about that on the wiki?
<mnemoc> not yet... but it's basically to run https://github.com/maxnet/a10-meminfo/blob/master/a10-meminfo-static as root on android
<mnemoc> and then compare the output with the script.fex's [dram_para] section
<techn> get that .fex to correct folder, add board to u-boot, http://linux-sunxi.org/FirstSteps#sunxi-bsp .. use ie. http://releases.linaro.org/12.11/ubuntu/precise-images/alip as rootfs .. and voila you should have booting linux sdcard

<techn> and also flashable images :)
<ithamar> hehe
<mnemoc> we need a hell of a lot of things :)
<ithamar> I'll do my best to get things started on that
<ithamar> but I'll probably need some help
<mnemoc> the linux-sunxi ML and this channel is eager to help you ;-)
<ithamar> appreciated ;)

<techn> no presure anyways.. great to have you onboard :)
<ithamar> okidoki, thanks for all the information guys (and girls, in the odd chance that there's one here)
<ithamar> I have to get off but.... I'll be back ;)
* mnemoc wonders if the is a girl here
<mnemoc> cu ithamar
<ithamar> well, a friend of mine in Canada can confirm that there _are_ women interested in this stuff.... just not many :P
<ithamar> cu mnemoc !
<mnemoc> :)

<barqux> how come I don
<barqux> *don
<barqux> **don't have a /dev/mali
<mnemoc> maybe you didn't load the module?
<barqux> I don't have a module although CONFIG_MALI=m

<WarheadsSE> if you don't have the module, then you're missing something
<mnemoc> barqux: find /lib/modules -name 'mali.ko'
lkcl has joined #arm-netbook
<barqux> mnemoc: yes, just put CONFIG_MALI400=m, rebuilt all and found it. Turns out that there is no r3p0 for armel, which means that I'll have to redo this with armhf :D

<WarheadsSE> kernel is float agnostic.
<andoma> r3p0 for armel would be sweet
<andoma> i'm stuck with armel for other reasons
<mnemoc> uhm
<barqux> actually, I was just thinking about building r3p2 for armel but I'm wondering about the arch config.h needed by UMP
<mnemoc> barqux: unless you have access to the NDAed DDK you can't build the libs yourself
<barqux> well that
<barqux> is not going to happen then
<mnemoc> techn: why the 2/2 input:touchscreen:ft5x_ts not?
<techn> mnemoc: drachensun reported some regression.. havent yet investigated it
<mnemoc> ok
<barqux> mnemoc: btw, where does the mali/ump libs currently offered come from?
pcat has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<mnemoc> barqux: allwinner
<mnemoc> via the cubieboard team
<drachensun> The one patch had x stop treating the touch as a mouse point, which seemed to not work as well
<mnemoc> drachensun: if you have kernel commits pending, now is the time :)
<drachensun> gotcha, I'll get back to today then
<drachensun> get back to that today I mean

<buZz> does A10 support hotplugging SATA? :D
<traeak> i think so
<buZz> ha, sweet
<buZz> lemme try
<techn> hmm.. latest kernel seems pretty snappy
TestModule has joined #arm-netbook
<buZz> ah
<buZz> at least cubie didnt crash when plugging it in (Y)
<mnemoc> o.o

<nemik> hello, trying to compile android for sun4i_crane is failing for me at : make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/home/build/code/sunxi-bsp/android/out/target/product/mk802ii/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libMali_intermediates/export_includes', needed by `/home/build/code/sunxi-bsp/android/out/target/product/mk802ii/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/gralloc.sun4i_intermediates/import_includes'. Stop.
<nemik> i've been googling the problem for a while but have not yet found any solution. has anyone encountered this before?
<traeak> when i used to have just home on sata i do recall plugging/unplugging the drive occasionally
<nemik> traeak: yup, i hotplugged them too, in fact the ports were external
<hramrach> libv: I guess it's more useful to try and make mesa demos compile on non-mesa
<hramrach> looking at the code cahnges required to build it will just run if I install Mesa egl/gles/ compile, install malie, run
<hramrach> which is stupid
<hramrach> and it will be all moot when lima is there
<hramrach> no demo for *** blob required anymore
<libv> it's not a demo
<libv> it's a quick test.
<nemik> so this is probably cheating, but i 'solved' the above problem by making that /home/build/code/sunxi-bsp/android/out/target/product/mk802ii/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libMali_intermediates/ directory
<libv> a quick test to verify that the freshly installed binaries are working.
<nemik> and then inside just 'touch'ing import_includes and export_includes
<hramrach> mesa-demos has several such tests
<libv> actually, a quick test of env for DISPLAY, should provide the runtime switching
<libv> hramrach: which work oh so nice on the fb version of the mali libs.
<hramrach> yes, they don't work at all there
<hramrach> I could import the code to do the X11 stuff from mesa butthen I would have to reserach licensing
<hramrach> which is immensely stupid too
<hramrach> the file says (c) tungsten graphics. All rights reserved :s
<libv> eglplatform.h has the definitions for X
<hramrach> I mean the code that uses them
XenGi has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
<libv> all you need is get a display and a window
<hramrach> yeah, of courese. it's like a screenful or two of code. And debugging until it does what the mesa demos do

<libv> works for me on my main machine
<libv> i am sure that the relevant parts can be plucked from that
<nemik> damnit, i think i'm stuck now. i got "No rule to make target `/home/build/code/sunxi-bsp/android/out/target/product/mk802ii/obj/lib/libMali.so', needed by `/home/build/code/sunxi-bsp/android/out/target/product/mk802ii/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/gralloc.sun4i_intermediates/LINKED/gralloc.sun4i.so'. Stop."
<nemik> is this where i have to use ADB to pull out the libmali.so inside the actual device? with extract-files.sh?
<libv> there is some noise when closing it, but otherwise it seems quite fine
<nemik> and if i do that, won't it not be compatible with the new kernel?
<rz2k> nemik: contact Turl and Quarx
<rz2k> they did android for a10 for quite long time
<nemik> so should i contact them directly rather than post to this channel?
* libv goes back to kicking lima varying mapping until it works
<rz2k> Turl is here right now, he reads the logs
xman has joined #arm-netbook
<nemik> thanks. Turl: would copying the existing libMali.so libs from a 3.0.8 lichee stock build work when trying to build latest sunxi-bsp android ? i thought the kernels were different
