<DonkeyHotei> why wow?

<vagrantc> i'd guess typically a venue might be a larger city.
<wens> DonkeyHotei: Monterey is a small coastal city known as a tourist destination (google 17-mile drive)
<DonkeyHotei> 17-mile drive is pebble beach, not the city of monterey
<DonkeyHotei> although the monterey peninsula is the two of them plus pacific grove

<planix> Hi I am working on a project that involves a olimex allwinner a20 som board and KSZ8895 5 port ethernet switch. ethernet switch is configured via an eeprom connected to KSZ8895. Switch starts ok. 5th port of the switch is connnected via MII to SOM Board (Same connections are used with Olimex Micro) I have following dts configuration for gmac peripherial.
<planix> &gmac { pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&gmac_pins_mii_a>, <&gmac_txerr>; phy-mode = "mii"; /*snps,phy-addr = <5>;*/ status = "okay"; fixed-link { speed = <100>; full-duplex; }; };
<planix> After booting up i can see board starts receiving data (ifconfig shows rx bytes going up) but if I ping a specific internal ip for following stack trace is send to console. Do you guys have any idea.

<sunxi_fan> mirko: sorry for the late reply about weston on DRM/KMS and libMali.so r6p2.. yes i have a working setup, feel free to ask for tech details, if you still need help or hints..
<sunxi_fan> let me tell you the Qt5.9(buildroot)/wayland/weston/libMali.so/DRM/KMS stack is pretty cpu waste..
<sunxi_fan> IMHO, so i headed over the Qt/EGLFS/libMali.so/DRM/KMS and that's more light .. had both the "hellowindows --multiscreen" and this QML example (https://github.com/alpqr/quickmwtest) fairly working on my multscreen setup (LDC RGB and HDMI on Olimex A20-SOM) but ...
<sunxi_fan> ..my test with a simple QtWidget app brought me a puzzling output, with an offset. i described it here: http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/interest/2018-March/029571.html

<sunxi_fan> pmpp: ummhh.. "good question!" :-) i don't know, really.. need to check what you mean. me not really a "Qt guru" but just trying to put up a POC to find the clue; so here the pretty raw and simplest code just showing the issue in my HW setup
<sunxi_fan> the github repo is: https://github.com/aventuri/widgetMultiScreen , the issue as shown on HDMI (second screen) is this one: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1vFuJEz1HgiUO6Ariz53ih-yNgXwDUe-3
matthias_bgg has joined #linux-sunxi
<pmpp> i ask that because mirko's trouble is with some calls to window kind widgets in an app, which is not allowed with eglfs
_whitelogger has quit [K-Lined]
_whitelogger has joined #linux-sunxi
<sunxi_fan> i see.. indeed my focus is on embedded GUI with two "full screen" displays (maybe owned by a single process, the renderer...) so indeed i can stick with EGLFS constraint..
<sunxi_fan> for different use cases, of course, some kind of compositor/window manager is due..
<pmpp> that make two window or 1 ?
<pmpp> i was wondering(for me) if eglfs + vfb multiscreen is possible
<sunxi_fan> here indeed we need to "closely" choose the wording!! :-) because AFAICS, the default of the "EGLFS" setting is a "virtual desktop", i.e. "something" that extends smoothly between both screens and where the coordinates are added up..
<sunxi_fan> for example in my setup LCD=800x480 and HDMI is =1920x108 so the "rectangles" should be:
<pmpp> xinerama style ?
<libv> wens: this talk leaves out my work completely
<libv> as if those free arm gpu projects happened out of thin air
<sunxi_fan> LCD origin 0x0 - size 800x480; HDMI origin 800x0, size 1920x1080
<libv> i was written out of history on modesetting, freeing ati, and now this
<libv> quite amazing really.
<libv> on another note, both the nintendo NES and SNES classic are gpl violating devices
<libv> they come with a binary libnand for uboot, for starters
raspo666 has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<libv> but if i go out and make noise about it, i will be bashed for doing so, and others will see their business boosted
<sunxi_fan> ...but the simple code snippet, i've put on github, is showing the rectangles both on the second screen (the hdmi one) with an offset, and the LCD stays black.
fl_0 has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<sunxi_fan> the puzzling bit is that IF i comment out the w2.show() , see https://github.com/aventuri/widgetMultiScreen/blob/master/main.cpp#L35, then i just see the w1 window on the main LCD display..

<oliv3r> hey, anybody familiar with valgrind crashes on the a20 due to neon instructions? A coleague just reported that they where rebuilding valgrind because the valgrind crashing on the neon stuff. I don't have any more details then that sadly

<icenowy[m]> wens: I mean the Mali-4xx abandoned by some device designers ;-)
<icenowy[m]> their spec is too low in 2018
<Net147> oliv3r: is it unhandled instruction? try updating to newer version of valgrind?
<oliv3r> yeah they are checking it out now, i think they are now just doing a rebuild of the existing debian package to remove neon support alltogether
<libv> the samsung galaxy s2 was released at MWC in february 2011
<libv> around the time when i had gotten my hands on a telechips tablet with a mali-200 and i started poking at the android 2.1 on it, where bionic lacked even LD_PRELOAD

<oliv3r> mripard: btw congrats on the successfull kickstarter! 31k was a good result I reccon
<megi> and some unfun time
<willmore> megi, ouch.
<oliv3r> libv: shows how old we are getting! :p
<icenowy[m]> and I think it may be possible for ARM Ltd to discontinue to provide Utgard license if lima's ready
<libv> icenowy[m]: it's a graphics driver
<libv> there is no such thing as ready
<icenowy[m]> P.S. according to Allwinner people, different variants of the mali blob is different soft IP
<libv> which is why i spent years talking modular drivers
<icenowy[m]> and need to be purchased independently
<libv> but that's something the xorg community has never been willing to see (apart from some intel guys who are actively making it easier for people to install the latest and greatest)
<Net147> oliv3r: no buildroot or OE?
<oliv3r> not for the standard debian packages; but i just got some more info, appearantly the jessie version of valgrind does not support neon, and their app uses neon; thus they need a rebuilt valgrind WITH neon
<oliv3r> easy enough
<icenowy[m]> it seems that Utgard cannot support glamor well...

<oliv3r> for us? extracted we are at 350-ish mb
<oliv3r> but mind you, our guys insist on python
<oliv3r> so, debian is perfect :p
<oliv3r> it's more of a micro-server rather then an emebedded system ):
<oliv3r> oh andt he UI is py-qt
<oliv3r> with fonts and resources, we are moving towards 500-ish mb

<oliv3r> then we have the no-tofu font, which by itself is 65mb stripped

<lvrp16> yeah but a guy using his spare time is not as quick as two people or more doing it

<lvrp16> it's still a spare time project
mavkhimenia has joined #linux-sunxi
<libv> does his employer know about this?
<libv> because i kind of assumed that he'd no longer work for amd by now
<libv> which is why i am surprised about your statement about spare time
<lvrp16> it's more like patreon rather than paying him for work
<libv> i think mshopf did a tiny bit of consulting on radeonhd stuff, on PLLs, which was what i had tested to death, and he asked me if i was willing to do so, but that was 2009 after the suse layoffs, and i was unable to take in any money besides the miserable dole

<lvrp16> REing shaders for 10 y/o hardware hardly qualifies as competing against AMD
<wens> then it becomes a problem of "is it paid work of the employer" and who the copyright owner is
<libv> if you're receiving money for it, the lines between spare time and work time become really blurry, and the developer and his manager have to be very clear about things
<libv> if such a thing is found out about afterwards, it is easy to misconstrue even if time was strictly seperate
<libv> lvrp16: please warn yuq, maybe he has cleared this and all is well, or maybe he is oblivious and could use the heads up
<lvrp16> i think he is clear about it from my convos with him, i just don't have the material knowledge to answer your specifics

<KotCzarny> cctv/video (re)encoder/player is what those boxes are

<lvrp16> the market size is hardly trivial anymore

<wens> I wonder what market uses more dram, computers (PCs, laptops, servers) or mobile / embedded devices
<lvrp16> edge computing devices is taking off so they're consuming the most
<lvrp16> stupid smart speakers
<lvrp16> useless pieces of garbage in my opinion
<wens> "the latest trend"
<lvrp16> also china is blowing up in terms of internal electronics consumption
<KotCzarny> i still use 15yo thinkpad
Xalius_Ph has joined #linux-sunxi
<lvrp16> electronics recyclers are also making a killing
<lvrp16> with ddr and nand prices being so high
<lvrp16> which is a good thing since people hopefully recycle more
<KotCzarny> fun part is that thinkpad consumes ~8-15W or power
<KotCzarny> that's with display
<buZz> isnt that typical for a decent laptop?
<KotCzarny> sure, but one would think that over 15 years there would be more innovation
<KotCzarny> in that area
<lvrp16> that's idle with power gating
<lvrp16> full load it's going to be close to 30W
<lvrp16> bubble busting KotCzarny
<KotCzarny> lvrp16: depending on the load and setup
<KotCzarny> x40 was a great piece of engineering
<lvrp16> for the electronics they had at the time, thinkpads were genuine pieces of art
<lvrp16> in engineering terms
<lvrp16> just got a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+
<tkaiser> Chrchrchr
<lvrp16> that things eats power like crazy
<lvrp16> headless sysbench it consumes 1A.
<icenowy[m]> thinkpads!
<icenowy[m]> ;-)
<lvrp16> that's 3x a s905x
<tkaiser> lvrp16: Idle consumption increase is only related to Gigabit Eternet and Wi-Fi/BT
<lvrp16> 50% more than Raspberry Pi Model B
mavkhimenia has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<lvrp16> yeah idle is OK, load is where the new PMIC sucks power like crazy
<megi> lvrp16: wouldn't soc desolder itself at 5W?
<icenowy[m]> lvrp16: how is the on-board USB "GbE"?
<icenowy[m]> and 5G Wi-Fi?
<lvrp16> they implemented dvfs, drops voltage to 1.2v from 1.35v
<icenowy[m]> 1.2v is also very high
<lvrp16> 320 Mb for receive, 240Mb for transmit, 250Mb for simultaneous
<KotCzarny> 500Mb ?
<KotCzarny> ahm, nvm
<lvrp16> no 250Mb combined
<tkaiser> icenowy[m]: Close to unbelievable but only one LibreELEC dev tested wi-fi so far. No other numbers available
<lvrp16> transmit causes the thing to slow for some reason
<lvrp16> contention on USB bus
<tkaiser> 100 Mbits/s with 802.11n at 5GHz
<KotCzarny> power drops on transmit?
<lvrp16> they run 1.4GHz at 1.35v
<tkaiser> lvrp16: You should get 315 Mbits/sec over Gigabit Ethernet
<lvrp16> tkaiser: yeah for iperf receive only, i can get 320Mb
<lvrp16> send only 240Mb
<lvrp16> send and receive is 30/220, i forget split which way
<tkaiser> But in any real world scenario with disk access in parallel it's 19 MB/s since USB contention issue
<lvrp16> rpi pulled one straight from orange pi's book and added a IHS
<lvrp16> orange-pi/banana-pi
<tkaiser> IHS?
<lvrp16> integrated heat spreader
<lvrp16> they no longer have the hotspot issue like before
<lvrp16> but z-height is about 1mm higher
<megi> hotspot issue?
<tkaiser> See the thermal images
<lvrp16> yeah, cpu dies consumed 1A in 5mm2
<tkaiser> Forget about the benchmark crap :)
<lvrp16> temperature sensor is on GPU, so it never throttles itself and CPU area goes to 100C.
<lvrp16> for so many unit sales, u would think they'd get their hardware shit together
<lvrp16> hire a competent hardware engineer
<megi> ah, not just soc, the board spreads heat better too
JohnDoe8 has joined #linux-sunxi
<tkaiser> megi: 'learning from cheap competitors like Orange Pi' ;)
<megi> I think orange pi's are this way too, the connectors can get quite hot
<icenowy[m]> lvrp16: P.S. how's the temperature of full quad-core @ 1.4GHz?
<megi> ah
<icenowy[m]> I wonder whether it will severely overheat
<KotCzarny> is it real 1.4ghz?
<tkaiser> Yep
<wens> tkaiser: 100 Mbits/s? sounds like SDIO limits
<KotCzarny> ho.
<wens> oops, past bed time, catch you guys tomorrow
<tkaiser> wens: I thought the bus they're on is good for 200 Mbits/sec.
<tkaiser> But single antenna Wi-Fi --> crap
<icenowy[m]> wens: I also expected SDIO limit ;-)
<wens> tkaiser: it's 200 MHz at 4 bits SDR or DDR?
<wens> I don't remember SDIO going that high
<icenowy[m]> tkaiser: I think 200Mbit/s is a theortical limit
<tkaiser> I read they exchanged the two SDIO thingies they have with RPi 3 and thought they talked about 200 as maximum.
<icenowy[m]> and the real speed wlil be far less than it
f0xx has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
<icenowy[m]> because of the design of the wlan card
<tkaiser> But I'm really surprised that nobody so far tested Wi-Fi. Just one external guy in his house with 802.11n only (no 802.11ac numbers anywhere)
JohnDoe_71Rus has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
<lvrp16> icenowy: it goes to 80C and throttles voltage and clock down
<wens> what's the wifi chip model again?
<lvrp16> tkaiser, i can test AC
<wens> CYW43455
<wens> oh interesting, the wifi chip can do pci-e 1x instead of sdio
<tkaiser> This thing has even a PCIe 1.x interface
<icenowy[m]> lvrp16: so it cannot keep on 1.4GHz?
<icenowy[m]> P.S. I don't like AC
<lvrp16> without heatsink, it cannot keep 1.4GHz
<tkaiser> icenowy[m]: With sufficient cooling it can remain on 1.4GHz. They just start to throttle at 70C
<icenowy[m]> there's no AC card as good as ath9k
<wens> yeah, the datasheet lists SDIO 3.0 going up to SDR @ 4bits 208 MHz, so ~ 100 Mbit/s
<wens> tkaiser: so it really is SDIO limit
<lvrp16> 100MB?
<icenowy[m]> wens: I think most AC card will have PCIe intf
<tkaiser> Good to know. Still 2x2 MIMO would be better over larger distances
<lvrp16> wens: 208MHz*4-bit = 100MB
<lvrp16> 100Mb won't hit the limit by a long shot
<wens> hmm
<wens> you're right
<wens> ha
<wens> I need to go to bed
<lvrp16> :)
<icenowy[m]> The ap6356s module which is used on the Allwinner H6 STD design is also capable of both sdio and pcie
<icenowy[m]> (the chip is bcm4356

<buZz> :) just ordered me a B+ to complete my collection
<buZz> no sense to it really :P
<tkaiser> lvrp16: 'echo > /sys/devices/platform/soc/3f980000.usb/buspower' and 'echo $busid > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/smsc95xx/unbind' (the older Pi 3, the new one has another node)
<lvrp16> turning off the wifi and usb chip?
<tkaiser> Yes, transforming it into a secure device without connections to the outside!
<tkaiser> The new Ethernet chip there when used with mainline kernel, active EEE and a switch that is also EEE capable makes already for 400mW less
<tkaiser> Downgrading to Fast Ethernet also greatly reduces consumption
<tkaiser> lvrp16: And this with an adopted sysfs node might work too: https://gist.github.com/Robpol86/5894185

<lvrp16> funny how the wifi is as fast as the ethernet

<KotCzarny> *quite
<lvrp16> oh noes, the optimist vs the pessimist
<KotCzarny> is your wifi crowded?
<KotCzarny> or not much noise around?
<lvrp16> not much noise, 1 meter away
<KotCzarny> try in different room?
<tkaiser> lvrp16: Thank you for the numbers. And now look at what RPi Foundation provides as official numbers: 102 Mbits/sec.
<lvrp16> at least they're not overstating the wifi
<tkaiser> They never tested themselves. That's what on LibreELEC dev with a pre production sample at home told them.
<tkaiser> Same with Ethernet 'performance'... They don't seem to care about such stuff...

<tkaiser> 1200 MHz vs. 1400 MHz but same memory bandwidth. So as expected. Seems also nobody in Raspberry land considered ever using tinymembench
<lvrp16> memory bandwidth increased
<lvrp16> i think they are using ddr2-1600
<lvrp16> probably a custom piece as well
<lvrp16> tinymembenchmemcpyMB/shigher1354.41511
<lvrp16> memsetMB/shigher17781869
<KotCzarny> or upgraded some internal bus while increasing power usage
<lvrp16> i think they just overclocked the ddr2 as far as it will go
