Nobody was ever able to confirm this problem yet and your report lacks even the most basic information (such as the type of hardware that you were using for testing, the exact FEX file, a confirmation that you used unmodified default kernel config, etc.) Thanks. -- Best regards, Siarhei Siamashka -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.

As I stated already, I didn't have much trouble with sun5i nor do I have any of the problems experienced by Olimex related to the PLLs rate (or maybe I do and didn't notice).

There was just a report that the current sunxi-3.4 branch is "good" and the stage/sunxi-3.4 is "bad" on sun5i hardware. But I could not confirm this myself. Now we have a kind of "The Three Musketeers" scenario :-) Some users had been "lost" along the way just because they have settled with some old sunxi-3.4 release, which worked good enough for them. And these users don't have any motivation for upgrading further. For example, this is exactly what Olimex is doing with the 3.4 kernel: https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/tree/master/SOFTWARE/A20/A20-build Apparently they settled with 36080eb05e9a1e96d58e3168631d3cc9c612a0e3 revision and also carry some extra patches of their own. Then Olimex discovered the interoperability problem with the mainline u-boot (in a hard way, because the failure was non-obvious) and complained in the mailing list. This thread is exactly a response to the Olimex problem. However we have not heard from them back. And this probably means that they just made their legacy snapshot work correctly but could not care less about the fixes in the up to date sunxi-3.4 and stage/sunxi-3.4 branches. Effectively, we have no real testers for the newest fixes. To add an insult to injury, there is also a vague report about the problems on sun5i hardware in the stage/sunxi-3.4 branch. Very nice, isn't it? Anyway, the patches are now in the "stage/sunxi-3.4" branch and the relevant information is available in the linux-sunxi wiki: http://linux-sunxi.org/Mainline_U-boot#Troubleshooting This should cover all the use cases. And I think that the problem is basically resolved now. > > Combined with Tsvetan's lack of any sign of response or any indications > > that anyone else could be interested, I don't feel very much motivated > > to do the "communication" part of the job, which is required to clarify > > the status of these 3.4 branches and move them forward. > > Still, I would be interested in having a sunxi-3.4 branch that can > actually be used on all the supported chips and devices. Well, the idea is that it already can be used on all the supported chips and devices. And nobody needs to touch it anymore unless users report real problems. There is simply no time to do this work. There is even no time to review patches, which do not address important problems. > > > I have been trying to boot sunxi-3.4 on sun7i/A20 using upstream U-Boot, > > > with no success.

Thanks for reminding. Well, the news is that I could not reproduce the alleged sun5i problem with the stage/sunxi-3.4 branch on my A13-OLinuXino-Micro board. Which obviously means that I can't debug it. Combined with Tsvetan's lack of any sign of response or any indications that anyone else could be interested, I don't feel very much motivated to do the "communication" part of the job, which is required to clarify the status of these 3.4 branches and move them forward. > I have been trying to boot sunxi-3.4 on sun7i/A20 using upstream U-Boot, > with no success.

Most likely you are missing the "setenv bootm_boot_mode sec" line in your boot.cmd (otherwise the PSCI code in u-boot drops the CPU into the non-secure mode and the sunxi-3.4 kernel can't handle it). The documentation in the wiki about the mainline u-boot is in a pretty much bad shape, but at least this should be covered: http://linux-sunxi.org/Mainline_U-boot#Boot Alternatively, there is the old kernel compatibility mode in u-boot, which can be selected in menuconfig. It should work with any old sunxi-3.4 kernels. > On the other hand, I was able to boot mainline Linux (3.19) just fine. Right.

I have been trying to boot sunxi-3.4 on sun7i/A20 using upstream U-Boot, with no success. I tried the current sunxi-3.4 branch and stage/sunxi-3.4, with and without these patches. It never prints anything on serial. On the other hand, I was able to boot mainline Linux (3.19) just fine. -- Paul Kocialkowski, Replicant developer Replicant is a fully free Android distribution running on several devices, a free software mobile operating system putting the emphasis on freedom and privacy/security.

I will allocate the next few days of my time on checking what's up with sunxi-3.4 and maybe we can make the final "graduation" release for it. -- Best regards, Siarhei Siamashka -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
