hey, come to think of it, we cannot use GPT with u-boot on sdcard, correct?

GPT takes the first 34 sectors and u-boot-spl starts at sector 16 (assuming 512B/sector)
<NiteHawk>
why would you use GPT on a sd card?
<paulk-collins>
to have moar partitions!
<paulk-collins>
and especially to make one for u-boot-spl, one for u-boot and one for u-boot-env

Hi. I've been playing around with the sunxi_defconfig of linux 4.0-rc6 a lot recently and I think I found a small mistake in it.
<silentcreek>
It contains the symbol CONFIG_POWER_RESET_SUN6I=y
<silentcreek>
But that symbol was removed from linux 4.0 (valid until 3.19)
<silentcreek>
So, I guess that line should be dropped from the sunxi_defconfig as well.
<silentcreek>
It's not a big deal since make will remove it anyway when the .config file is generated, but anyway.
<NiteHawk>
silentcreek: i think you're right. i used merge_config.sh and got a warning about that one not ending up in .config, too

Ok, is any of the developers here to pick this one up to be fixed? Or should I report it to the mailing list? I'm not really a developer. But I guess formatting a patch to drop one single line wouldn't be that hard.

Does anyone now about the performance impact of cpu schedulers on A20?
<silentcreek>
I'm wondering about whether to enable CONFIG_SCHED_MC (multi core scheduler) and/or CONFIG_SCHED_SMT (multi threading scheduler).
interrobangd_ has joined #linux-sunxi
<silentcreek>
Some people claim that enabling both has a positive impact on IO performance.
reinforce has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
<silentcreek>
The first one kind of makes sense to me, but I'm skeptical about the latter.
interrobangd_ has quit [Client Quit]
interrobangd has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<silentcreek>
I enabled CONFIG_SCHED_MC and I think it does really improve the performance of my device. The test scenario was to read large files from a samba share on the device (while the files reside on a USB hard drive connected to that device). It increased the transfer rate by 10-20% percent. almost hitting the USB limitation. But then again, this was just a short test run and I haven't done more extensive testing to confirm this.

<diego71>
silentcreek: CONFIG_SCHED_SMT is for multi-threaded cpu (hyperthread in intel namespace), so I expect it to not be better than CONFIG_SCHED_MC on A20
physis has joined #linux-sunxi
<silentcreek>
diego71: Yes, that's my understanding, too. That's why I was skeptical about that and didn't enable it yet. Some debian images for Cubieboards/Banana Pi (Igor Pecovnik's builds and Bananian) enable both for example, but I don't see how that makes sense. I was also surprised that neither sunxi_defconfig nor the debian configuration for sunxi hardware enable CONFIG_SCHED_MC, even though that sounds reasonable.
<silentcreek>
So, I thought maybe somebody did some testing or had experience with that.
gzamboni has joined #linux-sunxi
<silentcreek>
Anyway... I created a patch for the obsolete line in sunxi_defconfig. Since it's my first patch and I don't use git, would somebody care to check the formatting before I send the patch to the maintainers & mailinglists? You can find it here: http://pastebin.com/p4iB3Sv7

domidumont has joined #linux-sunxi

One thing, I'm particularily interested in, is whether the diff command I included, should be stripped, since it would obviously not be part of a patch file created this way.

<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, if you're going to send to upstream, I *strongly* suggets that you use git
sillysnowflake has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, and you should remove it from v7_multi as well
<paulk-collins>
you might also want to mention which commit made that config option deprecated
physis has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
physis has joined #linux-sunxi
<silentcreek>
paulk-collins, is there a specific reason for that? I know git is widely used. Yet, for a one-line patch I found it a bit too much effort to set up git. And the diff command used is part of the Linux documentation on how to format patches. BUt if it's really neccesary, I can do that with git too.
<silentcreek>
Thanks for the multi_v7_defconfig hint
<libv>
so the orange pi people decided they are part of our community.
<silentcreek>
You mean by mentioning the original commit that was included in that merge that I mentioned? I wasn't sure which commit hash to mention because if you look up the original commit hash, you wont find it over the kernel git interface.
<libv>
nice how one just needs to edit the wiki a few times for that
Andy-D has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
gianMOD has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<paulk-collins>
libv, is there any clear criteria about that btw?
<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, one sec, I'm trying to look it up
<libv>
paulk-collins: not really, but just adding some devices to our wiki definitely is not enough
domidumont has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, it's weird, it seems like this was never actually used
<silentcreek>
paulk-collins, you mean the driver or that way of submitting patches?
<paulk-collins>
the driver
<silentcreek>
ok, that _is_ weird, if it was mainlined before
<mripard_>
paulk-collins: it was used between 3.16 and 3.19
<silentcreek>
well, but I dont even have a sun6i device, so I don't know anyway.. I just noticed it when comparing the resulting .config with the sunxi_defconfig
<paulk-collins>
okay
<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, regarding hand-crafting patches, it's at the very least unusual and you should probably at least make sure that it applies as-is with git, because that's what maintainers will be doing (mripard_ here) and you don't want to send a patch that doesn't apply
sillysnowflake has joined #linux-sunxi
<paulk-collins>
silentcreek, so IMHO it's just as easy to do it all with git
<paulk-collins>
it's really not very long to set up
<silentcreek>
I see... well, I'll do it with git then
<paulk-collins>
if you haven't, it'll prompt for your name and email
<mripard_>
and you avoid pissing off the maintainer because you're too good to use their tools and/or read their doc ;)

Or both?
