<sb0> unsurprisingly, the acpi entry for my nfc chip is rubbish
<sb0> the nfc chip uses 10-bit i2c addressing, so when you're the average lenovo moron, what do you do? you fill in the highest possible 7-bit address in acpi and hope for the best.
<cr1901_modern> nfc chip?
<sb0> near field communications
<cr1901_modern> That's what I thought. Idk much about it.
<cr1901_modern> But isn't the highest possible 7-bit address in I2C reserved anyway?
<sb0> the highest possible 7-bit addresses are reserved for 10-bit addressing, yes.
<sb0> but the acpi table incorrectly contains the highest non-10-bit 7-bit address
<sb0> and claims it's a 7-bit address device, too
<sb0> I reckon they generated the ACPI table with some garbage GUI tool with spinboxes that would not go higher, so it was "best effort"
<cr1901_modern> 1/1024 chance of getting it right I suppose...

<whitequark> sb0: so uh, do we have a real hammer somewhere?
<sb0> metallic one? I don't think so
<whitequark> well, I'll need one to unpack that wooden cage...
<whitequark> guess i'll go to po lam tomorrow, needed that anyway
<sb0> most likely the small chinese hardware shops in the basement of the domain building have it
<whitequark> hm, there are shops there? didn't know
<whitequark> ok
<sb0> yes. and they have a number of interesting things, e.g. MAPP canisters. they're also quite friendly.
<sb0> it's not exactly the domain, it's another mall in the same building
<whitequark> oh, *domain*
<whitequark> not the yau tong ind city
<sb0> yup. OTOH I found a restaurant in YTIC lately...

<rjo> what's "Banerjee floor"? or what tool would spell-correct "noise" to "Banerjee"? http://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/HMC7044.pdf

<larsc> maybe that one 'D. Banerjee, PLL Performance, Simulation, and Design.'
kuldeep has joined #m-labs
<sb0> so those ASIC guys have released their RISC-V source
<sb0> it looks pretty disappointing
<sb0> it's not even pipelined
<rjo> larsc: ah. maybe.
