| bb|hcb | gnarface: Let's move that here :) | 05:38 |
|---|---|---|
| gnarface | noted | 05:38 |
| bb|hcb | I don't think that anyone would mind discussing riscv here, IMO its too early for it to have its own channel | 05:40 |
| bb|hcb | BTW. I have tried to check the status of debian sid for riscv (in a qemu chroot) and I can say its too far from usable | 05:41 |
| qwestion2 | Most pkgs ported, but im guessing its real slow? | 06:15 |
| bb|hcb | it was not slow but package deps were a mess; i tried apt upgrade and it went south in smoke | 06:22 |
| qwestion2 | bb|hcb: not slow: that include js in browser. Video decode i.e. yt-dl or mpv to watch vid, encr/decrypt? | 18:13 |
| qwestion2 | Those were all questions not statements, should be ?'s not .'s | 18:47 |
| bb|hcb | qwestion2: I haven't run browser from the chroot, just compiled some code... | 19:05 |
| qwestion2 | Ah | 19:05 |
| bb|hcb | I have managed to run the socionext synquacer board with Devuan, but the trip is not smooth: | 20:23 |
| bb|hcb | 1) There is no EFI Devuan arm ISO and I went by installing debian-11.2.0-arm64-netinst.iso | 20:25 |
| bb|hcb | 2) There are HW glitches and had to change device tree to acpi in BIOS | 20:25 |
| bb|hcb | 3) Bullseye to Chimaera conversion needs: | 20:31 |
| bb|hcb | - sed -i -e 's/exit 1/exit 0/' /var/lib/dpkg/info/systemd.prerm (before install eudev sysvinit-core) | 20:32 |
| bb|hcb | - echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger (instead of reboot) | 20:32 |
| bb|hcb | 4) After booting grub still says Debian; apt install lsb-release; update-grub to fix that | 20:34 |
| bb|hcb | 5) Rarely reboot hangs or it boots but soft-locks-up and needs reset | 20:36 |
| bb|hcb | Next I am going to try upgrading the board's FW and a backported kernel | 20:38 |
| bb|hcb | [ 4.518746] arm-smmu arm-smmu.0.auto: Blocked unknown Stream ID 0x0; boot with "arm-smmu.disable_bypass=0" to allow, but this may have security implications | 20:41 |
| bb|hcb | This is what is causing the soft-lock-ups... Happens on 5.15.x too | 20:42 |
| bb|hcb | 6) The result is usrmerged, but that is unavoidable with the bullseye->chimaera conversion | 21:00 |
| steev | the blocked unknown stream id is likely due to acpi booting - arm64 acpi isn't fully supported by the linux kernel, and device trees should be used (when applicable, of course) | 21:14 |
| bb|hcb | i know, but it was totally unusable - constant kernel messages about the built-in mmc, usb not working, etc... | 21:28 |
| bb|hcb | btw. the blocked stream only happens after a reboot, so I'd suppose something isn't initialized | 21:30 |
| steev | they showed up today c0rnelius | 23:52 |
| c0rnelius | steev: oh? nice. Mine only made it as far as the Opa locka facility. So, Monday it is. | 23:54 |
| steev | ah too bad :( | 23:54 |
| c0rnelius | yeah | 23:54 |
