sunshavi | siceloa: what advantages would bring new u-boot to freemantle? | 02:58 |
---|---|---|
* enyc meows | 06:44 | |
Maxdamantus | I think I compiled u-boot from mainline, so I imagine "new" is what you would naturally use. | 06:59 |
Maxdamantus | Just as there's no maemo fork for glibc, don't need one for u-boot either, since u-boot presumably already supports rx-51. | 07:00 |
Maxdamantus | Mainline u-boot has contributions from Pali made this year. | 07:04 |
Maxdamantus | (rx-51-specific contributions) | 07:05 |
brolin_empey | $ cat /dev/urandom >enyc | 07:07 |
CatButts | cat | 07:35 |
enyc | Maxdamantus: hrrrm but does cssu provide a usefully updated u-boot installer package ...? | 09:03 |
enyc | last I checked the u-boot installer has limited ext4 e.g. not supporting 64bit,metadata_csum ext4 | 09:04 |
Maxdamantus | Dunno. I think I've only ever built it myself. | 09:29 |
Maxdamantus | And I just have a separate ext2 partition for boot anyway. | 09:30 |

bencoh | Maxdamantus: so that means current uboot/master works as expected on rx-51? | 10:12 |
Maxdamantus | bencoh: I imagine so. I last built it a couple of years ago, but as I said above, there are recent rx-51 commits, so very likely it will still work. | 10:14 |
Maxdamantus | (feature commits (eg, usb serial), not try-fixing-everything-because-it's-broken commits) | 10:15 |
bencoh | ah, I thought you compiled it just recently | 10:15 |
bencoh | because yeah, there are still commits, mostly fixes to previous commits breaking compat | 10:16 |

sixwheeledbeast | whats master? I have leste booting from 2021.01-rc4... | 10:17 |
Maxdamantus | master is v2021.04-959-g842d049be2 | 10:18 |
Maxdamantus | (that is, 959 commits on top of v2021.04) | 10:19 |
Maxdamantus | last rc is v2021.04-rc5 | 10:20 |
sicelo | sunshavi - I don't think there are any expected benefits of new u-boot for maemo Fremantle. But with leste and others, e.g. postmarketOS, it could possibly mean dtb is handled without being appended to the kernel, making it easy to use one kernel for all devices | 12:22 |
sicelo | I don't know if this is really the case though, as I haven't tried it yet, but I would expect it. Appending dtb gets tedious after a while when you're hacking on the kernel | 12:25 |
sicelo | Hi | 16:55 |
sicelo | Would anyone help me find the bcm2048 datasheet, please | 16:55 |
sunshavi | sicelo: The near thing I remember about that is: | 18:39 |
