steev | c0rnelius: hm, so, there's a way to do overlays in the kernel, but it's a bit confusing to me. 15d16d6dadf6 is the commit that adds it, but yeah... i'm getting errors trying to convert mine to work | 07:10 |
---|---|---|
c0rnelius | where is the link to the commit? | 07:13 |
steev | one moment | 07:13 |
steev | gathering info still | 07:14 |
steev | 6f112d0fcf78226212f10350b372c8cd0bfaf919 is a commit where freescale starts to add them to theirs | 07:14 |
steev | https://lore.kernel.org/all/20920b0df6b067aca4040459a9677d7d1d6d766a.1615354376.git.viresh.kumar@linaro.org/ the mail | 07:15 |
steev | it's annoying that i can't paste in a hash to the search in github and get that commit | 07:15 |
steev | https://github.com/steev/linux/commit/15d16d6dadf6947ac7f9a686c615995c5a426ce2 | 07:15 |
steev | https://github.com/steev/linux/commit/6f112d0fcf78226212f10350b372c8cd0bfaf919 | 07:15 |
c0rnelius | yeah isn't that a new way they can be added or something? | 07:16 |
steev | yeah | 07:16 |
steev | and i'm just... not getting it | 07:16 |
c0rnelius | I haven't looked into it yet I'm still doing it the old school way. | 07:17 |
steev | yeah | 07:17 |
steev | i figured since it went in to 5.18, i'd finally look at it for 5.19 | 07:17 |
steev | and what keeps happening is | 07:17 |
steev | it yells at me because the dtb for the radxa zero isn't a fragment? i guess? | 07:17 |
c0rnelius | yeah I really don't know. I was gonna look into it eventually. | 07:19 |
steev | Overlay 'arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/meson-g12a.dtsi' is incomplete (4096 / 1346656301 bytes read) | 07:19 |
steev | https://paste.debian.net/1249368/ | 07:20 |
steev | i figured i'd start with that | 07:20 |
c0rnelius | do they error if you take out the compatible bit? | 07:20 |
steev | yes | 07:21 |
steev | li | 07:21 |
steev | like this is the weird part | 07:21 |
steev | https://paste.debian.net/1249369/ | 07:22 |
steev | it's like they are flipped? | 07:22 |
c0rnelius | yeah it looks pretty confusing I'm actually working on a allwinner overlay right now but just doing it the old way. | 07:22 |
c0rnelius | wouldn't let me paste it at debian: https://pastebin.com/06Ywgrj2 | 07:43 |
c0rnelius | but thats a general add I just did. I still need to test it. | 07:43 |
c0rnelius | and then just add more by dropping files into the overlays dir and updating the Makefile. | 07:43 |
c0rnelius | the new way is supposed to be simples but I haven't really seen any good docs on it | 07:44 |
c0rnelius | steev: even reading through the test common files they created it just seems like it will auto detect an error. such as if you wrote it wrong. | 08:52 |
c0rnelius | doesn't armbian use like non-static overlays some how? like the dtbo is created on the fly when called upon or something and put in memory. | 08:55 |
steev | re: armbian, no idea there. the new way seems to generate an entirely separate dtb so that's... garbage | 18:05 |
pablomobile | ukine: We borrowed two RPi3 from the Metereological Department of our insitutution, those were the only available. | 23:28 |
