No worries, I don't even have one, yet. :)
<lennyraposo>
for windows based systems
<lennyraposo>
and linux based systems
<willmore>
Linux system people don't need guides. ;0
<lennyraposo>
true enough
<lennyraposo>
the mac people maybe
<willmore>
Oh, don't get me started on the mac people, my in-laws are in town and they're mac people.
<lennyraposo>
been trying to make a decent img for remix and android but that stupid Phoenix software builds a messy overlapping partition scheme
* willmore
does not look forward to touching that.
<lennyraposo>
I have 5 more 1gb boards coming plus 2 2gb boards cooming
<lennyraposo>
and next week we should have the mali binaries in hand
<lennyraposo>
I got write up on how to build web hosting cluster using the pine ;)
<lennyraposo>
I got one I wrote up

I would love to find a way to remove the crazy old functionality from the desktop.

everythign is debian here with the exception ofthe Mac and an old Dell running XP
<willmore>
Well done.
<lennyraposo>
and I dual boot my sys to windows every now and then for client purposes

I hate haviing to use windows for anything
<lennyraposo>
it's a pig on resources
<willmore>
There is a donut place in the US called "dunkin donuts". Years (decades, really) ago, they had a commercial about a franchise owner looking forward to 'making the donuts (at 4am)'.
<lennyraposo>
not to mention setting up a windows machine
<willmore>
As the ad wore on, he got less excited.
<lennyraposo>
the hours of updates befor ethe system is at a production point
<willmore>
So, 'making the donuts' means 'doing the drudgery that makes the money'.
<willmore>
Sorry, no real donuts.
<lennyraposo>
a simple apt-get update
<lennyraposo>

<lennyraposo>
and voila

dnf update!
<lennyraposo>
I gotcha

KotCzarny: any idea on how to cross compile
<prasannatsm>
I did not run SPL as I don't have it yet
<plaes>
prasannatsm: does your tablet have wiki page yet?
<NiteHawk>
oops, yes i was wrong there - you're reading from device memory, so you don't need the SPL
<prasannatsm>
nope. I could not find it. I guess I have to create one.
<prasannatsm>
I am trying to fetch the .fex, create a devicetree for it.
<NiteHawk>
the "read" commands obviously rely on a specific memory layout / load addresses of boot1 and script.bin - those might not match your device...
<NiteHawk>
what method did you use to enter FEL, keypress on power-on or UART?
<prasannatsm>
pressing vol+ and power button together
<prasannatsm>
this is not a development board so I don't have access to UART directly. Its a finished tablet.
<NiteHawk>
i see. (uart would probably mean microsd breakout)
<prasannatsm>
so what does error -7 mean? I guess it is some USB IO error.
<prasannatsm>
how much does the read command take usually?
<NiteHawk>
it a rather unspecific "timeout", unfortunately. probably indicates that the FEL stack has crashed / is no longer responding
<prasannatsm>
I think the USB connector may not be working well. I used to have usb connection issue.
<NiteHawk>
try to dump the first few bytes of those memory ranges, e.g. "./sunxi-fel hex 0x42400000 16"
<prasannatsm>
ok. will check if that works.
<NiteHawk>
if that works, it may be an interrupted transfer of the larger blocks - but i suspect the hexdump will fail with the same error
<NiteHawk>
my suspicion is that - contrary to the wiki description - the device may not be initialized ("boot1"). i can reproduce the error -7 on my A20 when i do a "clean" FEL boot without SPL loaded. it's only after "./sunxi-fel spl ..." that the read command can properly access DRAM (addresses >= 0x40000000)
<prasannatsm>
yes even reading the first few bytes fail with the same error.
<prasannatsm>
how do I get the spl file or uboot?
<NiteHawk>
that's a bit tricky, as it's probably stored in nand on the tablet. if the vendor provides a firmware image, it may be possible to extract boot0 (or u-boot) from that - but i've never taken that route...
<NiteHawk>
okay, if you're able to build u-boot, then the sunxi-fel utility should get you started with either "spl" or actually loading u-boot
<prasannatsm>
If that could work I will be able to test it tonight. How will I be able to boot into uboot mode? Once I am in uboot will I be able to use sunxi-fel tool?
<NiteHawk>
sunxi-fel read/write should work as soon as you've loaded SPL (which initializes DRAM). u-boot can be loaded via FEL too, i'm just not sure how much of it will be of use to you if you don't have access to a serial console (yet)
<NiteHawk>
libv: any idea what up with the linux-sunxi mailer / PHP interface? confirmation emails are b0rken :(

NiteHawk: you can try the reseet password thing
<NiteHawk>

<prasannatsm>
Its not easy to remove the tablet case and access the UART pins.
<prasannatsm>
not sure if it is possible.
<libv>
prasannatsm: which is why we have it written up nicely.
<libv>
and why many hundreds of people ended up succeeding
<plaes>
why do you need to access the UART pins?
<prasannatsm>
to access the serial console I need UART pins
<plaes>
where does it say that?
<prasannatsm>
I think that is required to get serial console. If not how to access serial console?
<plaes>
Step 1. Find out all you can get about your device
<plaes>
If device is already documented in wiki, use and improve that information, otherwise move to step 2
<libv>
prasannatsm: before plaes starts reciting the whole new device howto to you, why don't you act like normal epople and read it
<plaes>
Step 2. Create new Wiki page for your device

<libv>
nono, i am going to fix the apt config
<jelle>
plaes: ah yes but that's for A10 right

<Amit_T>
Do I need to flush the DM TX FIFO before sending second packet, This is TCPDUMP on host side http://paste.ubuntu.com/16124105/
<montjoie>
Amit_T: if I understand the second frame is never sent ?
<NiteHawk>
jelle: very. think of eMMC as "onboard sd-card"
<jelle>

nice
<Amit_T>
montjoie : Yes.It never sent on wire.
<Amit_T>
Also, how many sequences of packet exchange takes place for ping to work?
<montjoie>
Amit_T: arp(2) then ping
<Amit_T>
montjoie: you mean to say 4 in total
<montjoie>
Amit_T: try restart dma after each packet and print DMA STATE register
<montjoie>
the DMA TX state will let you know if DMA is stopped and why
<montjoie>
and check if your current descriptor is the same than HW current desc
<Amit_T>
sorry but didn't get your final point ?
<libv>
prophylactic logrotate... and now we have 4.5GB free. that should do us for a bit.
<libv>
maxima seems to be doing fine these days.
<libv>
KotCzarny, NiteHawk, plaes: thanks for the heads up :)
<montjoie>
Amit_T: when the hardware sent a frame it then go the next descriptor (the 4*u32 structure). you can see it in TX_DMA_CURR_DESC
<KotCzarny>
libv: thanks for the servicing time ;)
<libv>
:)
<Amit_T>
montjoie: ok

I didn't do anything.. :P

Hello, I wish know how is the support of A64 for mainline kernel about SMP and MMC
<apritzel>
SMP is a no-brainer, because this a firmware thing, the kernel always uses PSCI
<apritzel>
(on arm64, this is)
<apritzel>
MMC works there as well, though it is not 100% complete
<apritzel>
I guess 8-bit transfers on eMMC need some more love
<speakman>
hm. trying to add an i2c touch device to the 3.4 kernel. Seems like Allwinner just support a limited number of ctp drivers :(
<plaes>
speakman: unfortunately yes
<alpha_one_x86>
Old odroid uboot was not shipped with PSCI
<speakman>
I grep'd "ctp_twi_id" in the kernel dir, and just a couple of drivers turned up, and none of them are available in the 3.4 vanilla kernel
<speakman>
plaes: you have experience with ctp on sunxi?
<alpha_one_x86>
apritzel: what you branch have for server head less using?
<plaes>
only mainline
<plaes>
what device and which touchscreen?
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: the only real blocker at the moment is the multi-bus-gates clock, which we just need to agree on an approach
<speakman>
plaes: an A20 and eGalaxy 3000 device

<plaes>

pretty much...
<alpha_one_x86>
apritzel: what is this? why is blocker?
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: but USB and Ethernet are not working yet, though I have the bits in the a64-wip branch on the same repo
<alpha_one_x86>
ha..., usb not important for me but I need ethernet
<jelle>
with usb you can get internet ;-)
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: because it makes the DT different, so it cannot go in at the moment
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: well, give it a try: the interface shows up, but ifconfig does not work, as the MAC reset times out
<apritzel>
I reckon it's some kind of missing power for the PHY
<apritzel>
but looking at the schematics I don't see that that should be a problem
<alpha_one_x86>
Then I can't use pine64+ and odroid C2 at moment with mainline...
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: yeah, no connectivity is annoying, but I hope that more people look at this and help with debugging
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: btw: what is the state of the Odroid C2 mainline support?
<alpha_one_x86>
No MMC support, SMP working
<apritzel>
alpha_one_x86: what about Ethernet or USB? Can one use NFS root?
<alpha_one_x86>
Ethernet have some work, but not into mainline
<alpha_one_x86>
apritzel: 10 years ago I used NFS root
<KotCzarny>
with swap over nfs? ;)
<apritzel>
well, NFS root can be used as a workaround if you lack mass storage support
<KotCzarny>
or if you have a farm

wens: we should be able to set the stack somewhere at the 40KiB boundary for A64 and A80 (hence the comments in the code), but the libdram blob was failing to work correctly in this setup for some unknown reason
<apritzel>
ssvb: speaking of A64 SPL: do you plan to push those sunxi-fel patches upstream to sunxi-tools?
<apritzel>
I am using them happily for some time now ...
<ssvb>
wens: I did verify that the SRAM between the 32KiB and 40KiB is accessible for reading and writing, and also that the libdram blob does not try to modify this area
<apritzel>
ssvb: or are you holding them back until this is clarified?
<ssvb>
wens: so I'm a bit puzzled about why it fails, but was not particularly thrilled about debugging the binary blob

apritzel: regarding the sunxi-tools, first I wanted to see how the ATF and the arisc firmware fit into the whole picture
<ssvb>
apritzel: but as you are already successfully using it, we don't have much to worry about
<apritzel>
ssvb: you mean in terms of SRAM usage?
<apritzel>
I am happily loading and running ATF into SRAM A2, SRAM C or DRAM with FEL
<apritzel>
I think I loaded scp.bin also some time ago
<apritzel>
ssvb: regarding FEL boot documentation: I wanted to describe the A64 bits on the A64 (or Pine64) page, pointing to it from the FEL page with a note that it's different there

Card audiocodec, chip none. I setup mpd and can hear noise when I plug in my speaker. But when I play it doesn't make a sound
<Rambler454>
it's there, I've specified it in mpd, but no sound.

hi, i've an odroid xu4. i've compiled and installed buildroot. i've put the kernel mihailescu2m. I've put the binary userland drivers into LD_LIBRARY_PATH. And finally, after having tested different kernel, i managed to get /dev/fb0, however, i don't manage to run nor kodi nor emulation station based on sdl2, i get errors on initializing the display. Any tips about how to test/configure the opengl drivers / mali drivers ?
<Rambler454>
You've got the PC right, got any clue avout the AV port
<KotCzarny>
rambler, is line out enabled? is volume set to something more than 0?
<KotCzarny>
my opipc plays just fine on line out
<Rambler454>
lineout volume 52
<Rambler454>
not a beep
<KotCzarny>
there is also a switch that enables line-out
<Rambler454>
might be that
<Rambler454>
Haha
<Rambler454>
audio lineout off
<KotCzarny>
told you
<Rambler454>
Well, thanks for pointing out my stupid mistakes. What should I have done otherwise. With that said, this is exctemely low amp.
<Rambler454>
Now I get why people buy external DAC/amps
<KotCzarny>
yup
<KotCzarny>
pretty high interference noise
<KotCzarny>
especially on usb activity

but if you set it to high level it should be fine
<Rambler454>
Could have easily made something better, not like people need it. What annoys me is that Realtek chips fo for $1 and we can't really get an affordable USB audio solution.
<Rambler454>
I have a "Hi-Fi grade" PCM5102+TPA51332A combo that handles over 100 ohms, costed me $40
<KotCzarny>
remember you also have hdmi audio out
<KotCzarny>
:P
<KotCzarny>
which is digital i presume
<Rambler454>
Yeah, well, if you've speakers with that ;)
<KotCzarny>
most current amps have hdmi in
<Rambler454>
I was lucky enough to have an audio out jack on my TV, so when I tried the OPi PC with a desktop, I played audio through that port using the TV and HDMI. That worked flawlessly
<Rambler454>
Well, I don't really keep a high end amp with me especially not for these boards.
<Rambler454>
At most there should be some speaker sets that accept HDMI, but that's rare.
<lvrp16>
or at least what is exposed by the firmware
<lvrp16>
i don't have a pine64 board...it shipped 3 weeks ago but i haven't received it

hi!
<philectro>
good evening/night
<philectro>
my cubie is now stable
<philectro>
the fault was the power cord!
<philectro>
the usb>plug 4*1.7mm
<philectro>
i have a question for my knowledge
<philectro>
what does the pmu?
<philectro>
hmm probably converting one voltage in several...
<philectro>
like a vrm stage
<lvrp16>
philectro: it controls battery and power to the SoC.
<lvrp16>
if you have an adapter, make sure your power supply can deliver enough current, there's a voltage drop because of the adapter

i have a delta electronics adapter (innergie)

<philectro>
2.1A max per port
<philectro>
(limited to 3A combined)
<philectro>
the cable was faulty, not the power
reinforce has joined #linux-sunxi
<philectro>
the contact is cut when the cable move a bit, go trash it
<philectro>
i was thinking that the cubie is badly supported by software, and it was just the cable making trouble
<philectro>
now it runs well
<philectro>
i have two power, because i have think that my under 5eur adapter was faulty, so i have buy a second of "better quality"
<philectro>
the tolerance for power in usb is -0.6v
