Any one here rebuild kernel with RT patches?
<Guma>
I got cloned git. And got patch-3.0.8-rt23.patch.xz
<Guma>
Just wondering if this is possible? I read on forum that someone tried it but apply failed.
<naobsd>
you have source, you have patch, you saw someone's log. you can do more than "just wondering"...

naobsd. Sure thing. I can try it. Since I never did it I am reading about it first.
<naobsd>
Guma: ah, you have knowledge to do it. not everyone has it ;)
<Guma>
You are a funny guy...
<Guma>
Did you ever play with RT? Just wondering
<naobsd>
no
<Guma>
Ok.. Any patching?
<naobsd>
it's not basic thing, "try it myself" will be faster than "waiting someone's answer" for such a thing
<naobsd>
well
<naobsd>
sorry, no experience about RT thing
<naobsd>
and Rockchip 3.0 kernel is not vanilla linux kernel
<naobsd>
in addition to rockchip original changes, it includes many changes from android-3.0 and linux-stable 3.0.x
<Guma>
I am reading on kernel.org website. Aha. so that is why it did not work for someone else in Forums.
<naobsd>
I think patch will not apply cleanly, but I cannot say it's impossible or it's possible ;)
<naobsd>
if you don't need graphical things such as HDMI, mainline kernel may be another answer (I'm not sure RT patch support it)
<Guma>
I am quite noob in this. Done couple of times in past on desktop. Not that I got this board for little project of mine I am trying to build and make SD image with RT kernel for robotics
<naobsd>
but mainline thing is not stable for rockchip
<Guma>
I am not interested in any desktops
<Guma>
ssh or serial. It will not be connected to any monitor
<Guma>
Are you refering kernel.org? or radxa git branh?
<naobsd>
both
<Guma>
I see someone in Forum build 3.10
<naobsd>
rockchip 3.0 kernel supports more things than mainline, but it's old and buggy
<Guma>
from another Git
<naobsd>
I don't recommend 3.10 (at least for now)
<Guma>
Right now I am using the ubuntu 14.04 sd image.
<naobsd>
I made it work on RR, but no update since then
<Guma>
Do you know if running openCL on it can use GPU?
<Guma>
OpenCV
<Guma>
I will have stereo camera connected over USB
<Guma>
fo image analysis. And wondering if this could be offloaded from CPU to GPU when running headless.
