steev: where did you count billions of patches? :-)
<mmind00>
steev: at least compared to 4.2-rc1 it really boils down to the edp and the one new drm ioctl I took from the chromeos kernel

It's definitely not as bad as Samsung's stuff has been

"Totally works with mainline" - you just need these patches here, and this one from here, and there are a couple by so and so you should apply too, and oh, if you want WiFi to work you need this option to be enabled, and oh yeah, you need to enable this option as well

steev: haha ... thankfully I'm not in the business of providing fully functional rockchip kernels, so can live with "partially works with mainline" ;-)

will it be nice if RK's u-boot adds "rockchip.usb_uart" when it's enabled in u-boot?
<naobsd>
oh well
<naobsd>
if it's enabled in loader, we will lose flashing functionality via fastboot/rockusb. ;)

it should be enabled carefully ;)

naobsd: pong
<naobsd>
which kernel did you build?
<naobsd>
3.10 based android kernel?
<tlwoerner>
4.0-next
<naobsd>
then you don't have resource.img, right?
<tlwoerner>
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git, my build is based on some work rperier did
<tlwoerner>
no, i don't have a resource section
<naobsd>
I'm not asking section/partition
<naobsd>
I'm asking resource.img file
<naobsd>
then it shouldn't be available for mainline kernel
<naobsd>
RK u-boot wants dtb in resource.img in resource partition or boot.img
<naobsd>
but resource.img is not supported by mainline kernel
<naobsd>
you need to
<naobsd>
A: prepare/put resource.img into resource partition or boot.img
<naobsd>
or
<naobsd>
B: use linux-rockchip's u-boot which ignore "dtb in resource.img cannot be found" error
<rperier>
tlwoerner: if you use meta-rockchip, you need first to flash your device with "petitboot" then you can you a mainline kernel which produce a zImage and a separated dtb
<naobsd>
dtb should be appended to mainline kernel zImage
<naobsd>
ah
<naobsd>
dtb should be appended to mainline kernel zImage if you're using linux-rockchip u-boot
<naobsd>
compile/flash u-boot from linux-rockchip is one of steps to run mainline kernel
<tlwoerner>
rperier: i'm working on a "firefly-update-image" to create something that can be flashed to the firefly's eMMC and not use the "petitboot on uSD" path
<naobsd>
tlwoerner: again, "RK u-boot wants dtb in resource.img in resource partition or boot.img" this is the reason
<rperier>
you said "my build is based on some work rperier did"... without much more details... I cannot know :)
<tlwoerner>
naobsd: what tool is used to create a resource partition? i see there's a RSCE header attached to a regular dtb file, but i'm not sure how to convert the raw dtb to the resource.img
<tlwoerner>
rperier: :-) i used your existing kernel recipe :-)
<naobsd>
tlwoerner: what I said is "ignore it for mainline"
<tlwoerner>
naobsd: ok
<naobsd>
if you're asking about 3.10 based kernel with resource.img,
<rperier>
tlwoerner: when you have a working "firefly-update-image" feel free to propose a pull request
<naobsd>
I guess run "losetup"with offset/size in initramfs might be another solution

hello
<cristian_c>
I've tried gpiodump
<cristian_c>
I loaded the kernel module and I've checked all the pins, in three modes
<cristian_c>
but I'd like to know what to do in order to make things working
<cristian_c>
any ideas?

tlwoerner: thanks for sending email. then, you solved that problem?
<tlwoerner>
naobsd: no, not yet :-) i'm still trying to sort out what I need to do
<cristian_c>
another question
<cristian_c>
I'd like to access to mount user readable/writable nand partition (i.e. /sdcard)
<cristian_c>
I think loop* block files are related to mtd partitions and I think I could mount /system or /sdcard , mtdblock8 and mtdblock9, respectively (they are ext4 the first one and vfat the second one). So, I'd like to know if maybe I've to enable some CONFIG options in the kernel configuration file or to something else. Any ideas?

tlwoerner: please forget this part "(it was suggested using losetup with the correct offsets as found in the kernel CMDLINE might work)"
<naobsd>
it's totally different story
<naobsd>
"cat zImage xxx.dtb > out" is the way to make kernel with dtb appended
