siceloWizzup: wiki down again, https://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/leste.maemo.org09:15
buZzmeh, d4 being a puta, lot of issues with booting :/09:36
buZz(but left it on charger for a while, seems its booting fine now)09:38
siceloWizzup: any idea what would cause https://maedevu.maemo.org/images/n900/tools/u-boot-2020.12-pali.bin to keep showing messages like `unknown command 'ATE1'` etc. with the result that console ends up not working10:23
buZzmaybe some boot.scr around with illegal commands?10:32
buZzwait, ATE1? its getting hayes modem commands?10:32
uvos__all this stuff will still work if th iphb kernel module isent there10:32
uvos__right?10:32
uvos__userspace wise10:32
buZziphb? what is it10:33
uvos__a sorta hacky maemo kernel module10:34
uvos__that shapes traffic to avoid wakeing up the device to often10:34
buZzah? not sure if i've seen that around10:34
buZzwhat stuff are you asking about btw?10:35
uvos__stuff that uses iphb10:37
buZzhehe, so, traffic?10:38
uvos__that is modest, there are patches for telepathy etc, iphbd10:38
freemangordonuvos__: it should10:46
freemangordonah, wait10:46
freemangordonlemme check10:46
freemangordonyep, looks like https://github.com/maemo-leste/iphbd/blob/master/iphbd/iphbd.c#L20110:47
freemangordonbut it won;t be able to sync to keepalive messages10:48
freemangordonuvos__: iphb module does not shape traffic10:48
freemangordonI would not assume keepalive packets to be part of the traffic10:50
freemangordonbuZz: iphb is (and has been all the time) in fremantle10:51
freemangordonkernel module does 2 things:10:54
freemangordon1. groups keepalive packets so they are send at once when we have other type of packet to be send of if the list becomes too big10:54
freemangordon2. informs userspace daemon (iphbd) that we are about to send something over the wire so radios etc are on anyways10:54
freemangordonhttps://github.com/maemo-leste/iphb-dkms/blob/master/iphb.c10:54
uvos__this is shapeing traffic10:54
uvos__imo10:54
uvos__but ok10:55
freemangordonok, not really important how we are going to call it10:56
uvos__true that10:56
freemangordoniphbd/libiphb allow application to register for heartbeat10:57
buZzfreemangordon: sounds like that grouping could help battery life10:57
freemangordonthis is the whole point10:57
uvos__thats the point yes10:57
buZzsweet :)10:57
uvos__currently it wont save mutch battery life tho10:58
uvos__since we really only have one user (modest)10:58
uvos__stable at least10:58
Wizzuproot10:58
Wizzuptoor10:58
Wizzupoops :D10:58
Wizzupmorn10:58
freemangordonhi10:58
freemangordonuvos__: not really10:58
uvos__#10:58
freemangordongabble as well10:58
uvos__in stable?10:59
freemangordonthere is no working iphb in stable10:59
freemangordonso no, but it will be there soon10:59
Wizzupsicelo: I restarted networking and now it's back it seems10:59
Wizzupsicelo: re: the 2020 uboot, not sure, I don't think I have seen that11:01
freemangordonuvos__: also, this will benefit https://github.com/maemo-leste/rtcom-presence-ui/blob/master/lib/pui-location.c11:12
freemangordonwhen we enable location ofc11:12
Wizzupfreemangordon: btw I don't really see a power regression since the latest kernel11:21
Wizzupbut that's just from me looking at the percentage and time left on various occasions11:22
freemangordonyep, seems it is ok11:22
uvos__yeah we pretty estabilshed that it was a false alarm13:00
uvos__caused by mesurement methodology and someting keeping my device busy for some reason (but only once)13:01
freemangordonuvos__: https://imgur.com/80WU5s813:44
freemangordonsaples taken every 60 seconds13:44
freemangordon*samples13:44
uvos__freemangordon: i see15:27
uvos__generally better, whats happeing with ipbh at ~60 minutes?15:28
freemangordonno idea15:34
freemangordonI doubt it is comms related15:35
freemangordonmodem was offline, but as you said this means nothing, so it could be modem related15:36
freemangordonWizzup: did you have Xorg crashes since the last update?16:56
freemangordonhmm, 9 hours in idle and still battery voltage is 3.679, I don;t think I have ever seen my device lasting so long17:08
freemangordontmlind: do we still need 286f033c569471ce4a5f20ead824b29f3152e390 (drm/omap: Fix shmem write-combined buffer handling)?17:22
freemangordontmlind: it is this https://github.com/maemo-leste/droid4-linux/commit/286f033c569471ce4a5f20ead824b29f3152e390 commit17:36
freemangordontmlind: I reverted that and... no more ants, at least on first boot17:59
freemangordonit still boots fine so I wonder why is that patch needed17:59
freemangordonsecond reboot... no ants18:14
Wizzupfreemangordon: I haven't had a xorg crash yet20:11
Wizzupfreemangordon: oh... no ants would be amazing20:11
tmlindhey that's great if that helps!20:31
tmlindone of those defines is zero, not sure if the code currently or with the patch is correct20:51
tmlindsleep time here, ttyl20:51
freemangordontmlind: please, when you have some time, have a look if this code is needed or not so we can either revert or send for upstreaming21:16
freemangordon1hmm, ants are still there21:55
buZzhmm, did something change about battery calibration?22:51
buZzd4 no longer seems to hit 'fully charged'22:51
buZzthis was before iphb already btw, i think since the last kernel update?22:52
buZz4.207V , really should call itself fully charged by now?23:11
buZzah, 4.23V , and 'fully charged' but didnt give a notification23:12
buZzand then 'calibration needed'23:12
buZzguess the file changed or something23:12
freemangordonugh, rebuilding locales on n900 takes ages23:34
