Oggetto: ext4 filesystem corruption with 4.10-rc2 on ppc64le

Hi,

I'm consistently seeing ext4 filesystem corruption using a mainline
kernel. It doesn't take much to trigger it - download a ppc64le Ubuntu
cloud image, boot it in KVM and run:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo reboot

And it never makes it back up, dying with rather severe filesystem
corruption.

I've narrowed it down to:

64e1c57fa474 ("ext4: Use clean_bdev_aliases() instead of iteration")
e64855c6cfaa ("fs: Add helper to clean bdev aliases under a bh and use it")
ce98321bf7d2 ("fs: Remove unmap_underlying_metadata")

Backing these patches out fixes the issue.

Cyrus_5040.dts Misisng

2016-10-24 Thread luigi burdo 
Hi Andy,

me and some others are testing the cyrus_5040 and we sow inside the Lnx kernel 
there isnt the cyrus_5040.dts.

i just attched my dmsg and my lshw reports where you can see:

on dmesg there are issue on ata2 device, if i burn a cdrom i have a failure in 
burining , copy from to another partition some time become really slow 300kb/s 
(sata1 SSD to sata1 ssd partition).

if more than 3.5gb of ram is used (right now i have 16gb) we face a dma errors 
on pci boards.

lshw dont show L3 cache i face this on cyrus_5020 too, is this normal?


if is needed something more you can ask freely

Thanks

Luigi

Radeon 77xx xorg issue on cyrus+ Varisys

2016-05-03 Thread luigi burdo 
This are my logs of experience on a 7750HD 2GB
I attached my dmesg radeon,drm and Xorg logs for gave better investigating to 
the devs.
I see on Xorg.1.log where the radeon config was called there is a crash on 
radeonsi 

a drm:.si_dpm_set_power_state] *ERROR*  too.


Hope it will help for have a great linux experiences on this new powerpc 
desktop machine

Thanks for support ppc

hi michel,
tested with  sapphire 7750Hd 2gb ddr3 on Cyrus+ Amigaone X5000 P5020,
with radeon  selected i have a stalling of fence 0 and video binking with all 
glitched like on 7770hd, only fbdev video gave the desktop ok.
distro is the ubuntu mate 16.04 
kernels used for testing are the 4.6 rc 5 and 4.5 
will build today the 4.4 and test there too.

if something needed (logs)and some specific test are requied for help the devs

sorry for extra email.

about kernels i been test from 3.3 to 4. to lastest rc nothing change the

Re: radeonhd and xorg issues on powerpc p5020 and G5

2016-04-30 Thread luigi burdo 
hi michel,
without xorg conf on cyrus+ p5020, and g5 quad i have only the black screen 
with pulse cursor. i need to made it and put in etc/X11/ or not desktop at all.

about modeset=0 on both cards:
yes i know is normal dont have video but i think the more strange is have the 
opposite compared the kernel options . with kernel radeon. modeset=0 and 
nouveau.modeset=1 look like xorg understand to activate the radeon and 
deactivate the nouveau .
and this make the system stalling without any way to recover.

about radeonsi, will check  on 7750 too and report.
for now 4xxx,5xxx,6xxx can say are running on ppc system with 3d too , yes many 
endianess on egl and egl2 colors not right and some creazy texture on some 
games but ... running ;-)

ciao
luigi

radeonhd and xorg issues on powerpc p5020 and G5

2016-04-22 Thread luigi burdo 
Hello devs,
during  my testing on ppc hardware  im facing issue with xorgs and radeon hd
on varisys/Aeon Cyrus+ P5020 machine and on Quad G5 hardware too.

On Quad G5 with 2 video boards
if i set radeon.modeset=1  nouveau.modeset=1 Xorg -configure dont found at all 
the video boards 
if i set radeon.modeset=0  nouveau.modeset=1 Xorg -configure dont found the 
nouveau board 
if i set radeon.modeset=1  nouveau.modeset=0 Xorg -configure dont found the 
radeon board 
if i set radeon.modeset=0  nouveau.modeset=0 no video working ... no tty too ;-)

On P5020
last of my test is this machine with a  radeon hd 7770 core edition
if radeon drv is running the system run in softpipe mode and i face many drm 
errors and fence issue.
i atteched the dmesg files.


If something else is needed ask without any problems

Thanks 
Luigi

hi Scott,
the P5020 mmu is signed by the kernel no book3e found 
kvm ppc64 crash if run by qemu.
in the kernel( 4.5 too)all is enabled we had a base .config by freescale/nix 
where kvm options and book3e  where enabled.
my suspect is this can be an generated issue by  the host uboot or a missed tdb 
parameter and not a linux kernel problem.
Just was need an expert point of view .

Hi Scott, thanks for the reply,about: I don't know what you mean by "working

Dont have the Kvm-pr is a really unhappy news, it means we will not have the 
opportunity to run for example Mol-kvm on  this machine.
about:KVM for e5500 uses hardware hypervisor featureslook like hypervisor is 
disabled because the main Hardware is too young and need a better knowledge.

Freescale P5020 cpu will be kvm-pr?

2016-02-29 Thread luigi burdo 
Hi all,sorry for this email but i need to ask to  Alexander Graf and Michael 
Ellerman if will be possible have kvm and kvm-pr for the Freescale/Nix P5020 
cpu . We are testing a new desktop machine with this powerpc cpu classesand 
right now we see kvm under qemu is working only on emb side, this because the 
kernelset the e5500 cpu as a emb and there is no an option for build the kernel 
with book3s.

here are the new machine specs:http://www.vincentperkins.com/AmigaNG/x5000.php

Mike and Gerhard, dont think the situation of the pcie powerpc is bettrer.but 
compared with last years with the new kernels and last xorg on a radeonhd 4650 
i have an increase of performance about 250x ... example QuakeSpasm was gaving 
640x480157fps on Radeon 4650... Now is 380 fps yes compared the old nvida 
7800gtx on Osx  450 fps this results are less but for sure better than before.
The worst of last period im facing r600 radeon ring test errors and  i cant 
usewith gpu accel now only in fbdev the 5450 and 6570 that it was perfect 
working before.

Re: [opensuse-ppc] HELP: test kernel patches on the real thing

2015-04-23 Thread Luigi Burdo 
Jo guys
i can try if you need to help.
I have a Quad G5 with RadeonHd on it ... Opensuse 13.2 is running on it
on Qemu 64 Kvm machine hosted by Lubuntu 14.04

 Quoted from the opensuse-ppc mailing list

 I'm Wolfram Sang, maintainer of the I2C subsystem of the Linux Kernel. I
 want to get rid of an ancient mechanism in the I2C core which was used in 
 the
 2.4 era. There are only two users left; drivers for old Macintosh computers 
 I
 don't have access to. So, I tried to emulate the behaviour on an ARM board 
 and
 wrote a replacement for the old mechanism which works fine here. Now, I 
 wonder
 if there are people willing to test these patches on the real thing? This 
 would
 be much appreciated!
 I have a bunch of older macs but none currently has linux and/or a current 
 version of linux on them.  

 What models do you need tested?  Can you point me to a quick easy to install 
 distro?  I usually use openSUSE but I think Fedora has a ppc port now as 
 well.

 I only have 32bit macs.  I have:

 iMac DV 400Mhz
 PowerMac G4 Digital Audio 466Mhz
 2 - PowerMac G3 Blue  Whites (one with a G4 I THINK).
 PowerMac 9600
 PowerMac 9500
 PowerMac 6500
 PowerMac 6400
 PowerMac G3 All In One Beige.
 PowerBook G3 Wallstreet
 Thank you for the offer! I am still in the process to find out which
 machines are windtunnel and which ones are keywest. I thought this
 would be easy once I found some Mac owners, but seems I was wrong...

 I'll let you know if one of your machines could become useful.

 Thanks again,

Wolfram

RE: PowerMac G5 Quad Issue reporting

2015-01-21 Thread luigi burdo 
Hi Mike, thank you for your reply .
yes im sorry i was fixed the issue yesterday night,
forcing the module  i2c_powermac loaded from etc/modules
stange it was not loaded by default like it was before.
in any way *fixed :-)

About the RadeonHD , yes you are true, have the Mesa/Gallium 
working is problematic but what is not problematic in the good ppc world ? :-)

Right now im using the software resterized i didnt had the time
to check everythings regarding the gpu because i was need 
first fix the turbine noise in my home made by powermac (or my wife had been 
kill me)
The good thing i see all the firmware -nonfree loaded without errors 
before not and with lubuntu 14.04ts i dint have a good rasterizing too on 
6570hd.
Forget to mention, before for have the radeonhd working on g5 quad i was need 
the X1900gt in couple with 4xxx and 6xxx hd,
now im using it in couple with and Nvidia with apple firmware. i think this is 
the best advance for make people 
from the ppc apple community swap finnally their gpu.
I hope soon will be able to have the mesa gallium working there for advance the 
communty .

here couple of screenshots.

 You need to load the i2c_powermac kernel module.
 
 
  Need to report to Michel D. from amd.com . The RadeonHD 6570 now is
  working on PowerMac G5 too
  look like the Xorg bigendian  issue related Evergreen / Northern  is

 Xorg itself has always been working, only OpenGL can be problematic.
 Have you verified r600_dri.so is used for that?

PowerMac G5 Quad Issue reporting

2015-01-20 Thread luigi burdo 
Hello all LinuxPPc Developer,
need to report a issue that im facing from kernel 3.16 and up.

The fans of powermac g5 quad start boosting like a turbo jet after the system 
is 
been loaded and up. 
Usually this become after about 30-60 seconds when the system is loaded.
This issue start with Xorg loaded or only in teminal system (gdm3 not loaded)
This issue come with system load with minimum cpu usage  5%  and less too.
During the closing of the system (reboot) the fans goes in right silents mode.


I had been tested and compiled the kernel with all the modules of fan controls 
for Apple G5 
without a positive result.
Kernel tested 3.16.ctk2 (debian wheezy 7.8), 3.18.3 and  3.19.rc5
Im using Debian Wheezy 7.6 (up 7.8) PPC on Quad G5 (970mp) Nvidia 7800gtx and 
RadeonHD 6570

Dont face this issue with old kernels version 3.10.65 and pre
(didnt test the 3.12 and 3.14) 

Need to report to Michel D. from amd.com . The RadeonHD 6570 now is working on 
PowerMac G5 too
look like the Xorg bigendian  issue related Evergreen / Northern  is been fixed 
;-)


Thanks alot for your jobs guys
Hope soon i will able to help in X5000 hardware too

Re: G5 Quad working with Linux PPC and RadeonHD

2014-05-17 Thread Luigi Burdo 

Hi Michel Dänzer thanks for your explanation about .
About the first post

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72877

Christian (Xeno74) had been success to have the right mesa/gl colors on
X1000 machine he make a patch about , i tested his package on QuadG5
but no effect probably something is different in kernel/hardware (?!?)

about the second
on X1000 r600 boards dont gave decoration problems
there is probably needed some other trick about
for the other architecture.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74939


In any way thanks alot for the infos and for the works
the PPC linux staff is doing :)
