 Are you using the first or second version of the patch? if the former, please

I guess the second one with mutex.
This is my work-in-progress-mix patch:
http://www.penguin.cz/~utx/zaurus/feed/images/spitz/zImage-3.0.0-rc5+-spitz.diff

Several hours later, charging was turned on/off at least 1000 times
without any crash. So it seems that it was the correct race condition
fix.

 as for the backstory, this crash ocurrs when a short (measured in time spent) 
 message was enqueued after a long message, so that the short one finished 
 first 
 (the actual bug was present even if the long one finished first, but in that 
 case there was double complete() on the one completion instead of a NULL 
 dereference)

I guess that inserting of power supply initiates reading of voltages on
MAX. The long one may be touchscreen or LCD control.

 Hello,
 
 here we are again: touchscreen does not calibrate (and pointercal

 Yestarday built Angstrom images did not ship ts_* utils anymore and
 the two tools provided both fail:

 xinput_calibrator
 Error: no calibratable devices found.
 
 xtscal
 xcb_io.c:515: _XReply: Assertion '!dpi-xcb-reply_data' failed

You have two ways to calibrate:
Xfbdev + tslib + xtscal: works well
Xorg + xf86-input-tslib + ?: Broken, X crashes on start. Needs porting.
Xorg + xinput_calibrator: Works, but due to too much noise in the
ads7846 kernel driver, it is totally unusable. Pointer skip 50-100
pixels early after tap, calibration is totally out. Somebody should take
patches from Vitaly Minko and port them to the latest kernel. Patches
were sent in first days of this list (09 Nov 2009), but they were based
on kernel 2.6.24.

 If I understand, the issue has been resumed here:
 http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2011-May/002502.html

Well, kdrive should probably go to the handhelds feed or so.
Xorg still needs some work to become a replacement of kdrive:
- implement software driven Xrandr in the fbdev driver
- optimize operations in software rotated fbdev driver
- save some memory in core drivers

 Origin:
 [PATCH] Remove xcalibrate and tslib support
 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg.devel/10614

Well, we can create patched libXext version that will be installed by
kdrive people.

 I think it's time to concentrate on a *single* solution and debug it.
 Maybe xserver-xorg today?

kdrive: Probably easy to do.

1. Revert all removals of tslib support and create special packages with
a special name (as it were done for xserver-kdrive-1300).

2. Fix OE xserver-common to not mix Xorg and kdrive command line args
(comment out detection of Xorg is a work-around).

Xorg:

1. Fix ads7846 kernel driver noise (better solution) or fix
xf86-input-tslib (worse solution)

2. Fix OE xserver-common to not mix Xorg and kdrive command line args
(remove command line arguments except dpi is a work-around).

3. Fine tune xorg.conf. Make memory footprint of Xorg as small as
possible. I have a working xorg.conf for spitz and a nice XKB keyboard
map for zaurus which can be used as a start point:

 I can confirm that touchscreen 'works' again on corgi(C860) and poodle.

Well, I cannot. My OE image is broken again. That is why I copied my old
good 2.6.26RP image to the new OE image (plus odev-compat stuff), and I
was surprised - touchscreen does not work there as well. So it is
definitely issue outside kernel.

 Just some issues to cure:
 
 - poodle(kdrive-fbdev): at gpe login touchscreen calibration is
 requested, crosshairs are plotted, after calibration no input from
 keyboard/virtual kerboard :/
 - c7x0(kdrive-imageon): pointercal defaults are used (and those are
 slightly wroing on my 2 corgi C860). Gpe login is ok, keyboard
 working.
 Though, if you try to recalibrate from within gpe the crosshairs are
 not drawed so calibration is impossible

Yes, I seen this bug in Xfbdev pointercal as well on SL-C3200. But Xorg
calibration now works (well, the application works, but short tap paints
a pretty long line, so the result of calibration is still unusable).

I am now trying to locate the regression (or race condition?).

  Is the current OE still using module autoload? Or was this moved to udev
  and platform device tables? I the latter case the fix should be done in
  the kernel.
 
 Ah, this is nice question: we newly came on open air after years with
 2.6.2x and now we'll discover new bugs;)
 FWIW in OE there is a mix of modules management: some are in
 kernel.bbclass, others in linux.inc and finally in machine.conf.
 I'm still trying to understand what's happening using latest udev.

Well, again - snd-soc-spitz-not-autoloaded is a regression outside
kernel. The old kernel with the new OE image has the same problem. (It
means, that the kernel never provided correct info for udev module
autoloading.)

Regarding the defconfig and spitz embedded hardware, the driver for
ICL7106A and PXA RTC were missing or not loaded. I don't know about
sound (I found the fix sent to the list with my kernel).

I have maintained my experimental configs separately since 2.6.26-RP. It
diverged a lot. I am not sure about effect of many generic kernel
settings. Which one is better and which one is worse...

I'll compare your one and my one.

For example, yesterday I have found an option, that considers SD card
removal/insertion during suspend (MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME). It would be nice
to have this option disabled. But it makes impossible to suspend when
booting from SD. (Work-around: While booting from SD, bootloader have to
pass proper removable value to the kernel MMC driver (I did not test
it yet).

 please post/commit the shrinked defconfig (make savedefconfig): I'm
 trying to keep all the Zaurus in sync and that's much easier to diff.

Thanks for the hint.

 FWIW USB-host is only for spitz/akita/tosa, though.

Yes, it is. But USB host is very important for many users (like me).

Your config lacks many useful external USB devices support:
- USB HCI - required for any generic USB Bluetooth dongle.
- More WLAN drivers (my WLAN dongle is RT3070 and it is one of few
  dongles, that is able to live with 150mA. People using external power
  or power hack may need other WLAN USB drivers).
- USB to serial adapters are needed not only for serial cables, but also
  for many other devices (GPS, Arduino,...).
- I don't have any Ethernet adapters, but people have.
- Guessing whether somebody needs more obscure drivers like special USB
  keyboards, SDIO GPS.

  Regarding the missing sound:
 
  This is just an easy bug in the kernel platform tables - udev does not
  know that it should load snd-soc-spitz. Loading it manually works-around
  the problem.
 
 Pls check machine/include/zaurus.inc
 Are you sure we have the right modules configuration (btw it's a mess in OE)?
 I just copied the lines from linux-rp.inc...

Yes, it seems that we have right modules. Just snd-soc-spitz is not
autoloaded after the boot (it happened with 2.6.26-RP). I see loaded
snd-soc-pxa2xx-i2s (required for the I2S bus) and snd-soc-wm8750 (codec
driver), but not snd-soc-spitz (it defines Spitz sound routing and
controls additional mute transistors).

Is the current OE still using module autoload? Or was this moved to udev
and platform device tables? I the latter case the fix should be done in
the kernel.

 Usually issues only booting from CF. IIRC spitz crashes on first

Well, my home built USB cable to 500mA USB was attached. I tested it

these crashes. I'll retry with the weak USB power plug. (I never seen
weak-power-supply-crash with 2.6.26-RP).

  - tskeys are running at 100% CPU time (known bad design).
 
 Surely there are issues with tskeys/touchscreensee logs

Good thing happened and now it works again in the OE image built
yesterday from scratch. (Both tskeys and Xfbdev+tslib touchscreen.)

And yet another good news: Xorg requires much less memory than a year
ago. Fine tuning enabled modules may probably improve the number even a
bit more. I already have a nice XKB keymap with two keymap switching
hotkey, CapsLock support. I want to finish F-key support.

 spitz - http://paste.debian.net/116489

I see no sound as well - probably misconfiguration.

  - HDD LED seems to not work.
 Hdd not yet tested

HDD works, just the LED does not. Tested with the OE kernel. I'll retry
with my custom .config file. It also enables more USB drivers.

 Thus, your alternative suggestion is perfect with me. Actually, this

 I'll submit next revision with platform_suspend_ops later.

Does kernel have something like sleepy task interface, e. g. special
mode that is triggered by some sort of interrupt and instead of going to
perform full resume, it just lets a hook to wake up manually needed
devices, perform the sleepy task and then tell the system whether full
resume is requested?

It can fit for Zaurus battery charging monitoring - timer interrupt
needs to wake just the SPI bus.

But I can imagine a GPS logger using such interface to save energy -
serial interrupt semi-wakes the system each second, but will not go to
do full resume. It just processes NMEA sentence and buffers the result.
Only if buffer becomes full, it issues full resume and writes data
somewhere.

[Zaurus-devel] rule out 170mA USB device claim

2011-03-16 Thread Stanislav Brabec
Maybe you have a device that rejects to work, because it claims to need
500mA or so. But in fact it works, just it claims to need much more
energy than it really needs.

Here is a small hack to work-around this problem and force the device to
start without any interaction:

/lib/udev/rules.d/40-ralink.rules:
# Ignore power requirement for Ralink 3070. It can run with 170mA.
SUBSYSTEM==usb, ACTION==add, ATTRS{idVendor}==07b8, 
ATTRS{idProduct}==3071, RUN+=/bin/sh -c 'echo 1 /sys%p/bConfigurationValue'

If you have more similar USB IDs, then it may make sense to make a list
and create an Angstrom package for that.

(Note that the current Ralink 3070 driver requires 4x 256kB of
contiguous kernel memory to start. It is really awkward, and I have
often to call echo 3 /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches and/or
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=62M count=1 to wipe or swap out some
data.)

Not only that it boots. Even battery seems to survive overnight suspend!

I just seen following problems:
- I guess that I seen some errors about missing audio (untested).
- tslib stopped to understand /dev/input/touchscreen0.

After fixing these two issues, it may be a good candidate for update the
default kernel in the feeds.

And long time running issues:
- Serial without console may need to close/open after suspend to work
  again.
- Suspend still has problems with MAX (but offline charging
  surprisingly seems to work, I did not test whether even stopping of
  charging works)
- Unfiltered touchscreen precision is still tragical (50 pixel jumps are

- I still did not find to finish my resistor array keyboard driver (AKA

- Status of filesystem corruptions is not known (it is happening with

 Have you published your work anywhere?

Doing just now. It is a WIP, but it may help a bit. Commented code is
stolen from another projects and needs to be adjusted.

http://ftp.penguin.cz/pub/users/utx/zaurus/evdevd-unfinished.tar.bz2

The top directory contains some learning examples.

The code intended to be release is in evdevd-0.1. I wanted to write it
without glib or any other dbus proxy. It makes code a bit more complex
and especially I had to learn use of select().

The idea is following:

When client starts, it queries for the current status
by .../Evdevd/GetLid. It will starts listening on .../Evdevd/Lid would
to get change signals.

I was not yet decided whether force rotation or force headphone mode
should be part of the daemon or part of the client.

 what is the situation about power management/ battery drivers?
 2.6.34 seems mature for production use on spitz / corgi (well, usb

 Any update?

I just testes yesterday's vanilla:

Actually I see these regressions in comparison with 2.6.26-RP:

1. Fast charging during suspend does not work (see log at the end of
this mail). One have either reboot to bootloader to get battery charged
or wait about 16 hours and charge while Zaurus is up.

To fix this situation, we have to:

1.1 Rewrite max_read_channel() cross linking with sharpsl_pm. it is
completely bad approach - kernel is not aware that sharpsl_pm is cross
linked with drivers/hwmon/max.c. It is already suspended when
sharpsl_pm attempts to read battery status.

Threads pointing to the correct implementation:
http://archives.free.net.ph/message/20100126.214515.1170de0a.ca.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/zaurus-devel@lists.linuxtogo.org/msg00154.html

1.2 Invent a way, how to charge battery during sleep. Either call
bootloader somehow (if possible), or wake up SPI (or not suspend it),
read value, suspend SPI, perform battery control and continue in
sleeping.

2. Possible minor problems in USB initialization. See thread usb gadget
on zaurus and kexec in linux-arm-kernel last week. I just tested USB
host with yesterday's vanilla. I failed once, second time succeeded.
(Maybe it depends on the state of the master kernel when kexec is
called).

It needs further debugging.

3. There is new regression in no_console_suspend. I sent a very tricky
patch for unbreaking serial after resume with no_console_suspend in
past. Now it is broken again in different way: serial is alive after
resume, but serial setting is not correct.

Very minor regression, we can live with it.


Here is a log with no_console_suspend that cleanly shows broken
charging:

If you are ready to run Zaurus in dismantled state, then yes. Measure on

Alternatively, it is possible to write a driver. It is just one byte

2010-01-26 Thread Stanislav Brabec
Eric Miao wrota:

 I prefer 2) - the ugly and hardcoded setup in spitz_pm.c should really
 be removed. That's why the gpio_set_wake() and keypad_set_wake()
 are introduced.

I am unsure, whether gpio_keys driver is interested in the way, how wake
happens. I guess that is interested only in the fact, that wake
happened.

Handling platform specific edge/level wake setup would only complicate
the code. (In fact, even the PXA270 platform code does not exist yet -
arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa2xx.c:__mfp_config_gpio() is not capable to
configure Power Manager Keyboard Wake-Up Enable Register (PKWR).)

I talked to Vojtěch Pavlík and he told that 1 is correct: Follow
include/linux/interrupt.h. Setting edge/level wake mode should be done
in the platform file. The driver could use just irq_set_wake() and don't
care about details. And irq_set_wake() should do something useful even
for PKWR capable GPIO.

 keypad_set_wake() is really specifically introduced for use by pxa27x_keypad
 and no generic GPIO stuffs. So it's really annoying a GPIO will use
 the PKWR as a wakeup GPIO, I'd recommend one still get this hard coded
 into the platform file, with combination of WAKEUP_ON_LEVEL_HIGH (which
 is specifically designed for keypad GPIOs) and keypad_set_wake().

Well, keypad_set_wake() seems to be possibly broken for GPIO 38. Imagine
a device, that has a small keypad, but GPIO 38 has a different purpose
that requires an edge triggered wakeup (PWER). I think that
keypad_set_wake() reprograms it to PKWR.

The problem affects gpio_keys: It is a driver implementing one key per
gpio. It now handles On/Off and lid switches on Zaurus. Lid switches
are on normal GPIOs, On/Off switch is wired to PKWR capable GPIO.

 The spitz, however, is doing a good job on this though it's using a GPIO
 emulated matrix keypad, that there is a separate SPITZ_GPIO_KEY_INT,
 which triggers whenever there is any key press on this matrix (I don't
 know how that's designed in HW, but it seems to do that job), and
 which can be setup as a GPIO wakeup.

SPITZ_GPIO_KEY_INT happens if AC adapter is connected or key is pressed.
Surprisingly, the key press logic is part of NAND flash controller CPLD.
SPITZ_GPIO_KEY_INT==0 - it makes possible to wake Zaurus even from deep
sleep by any key press. It would be impossible only with PKWR.

I guess that this and implementation of keypad_set_wake() is a reason,
why most devices suspend and resume correctly even if the irq_set_wake()
refuses to configure wake and the warning is only visible symptom.

  That's why WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_* is introduced, no need for gpio-keys
  to know this.
 
  But WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_* is impossible for GPIO 95,
  enable_irq_wake()/gpio_set_wake() returns EINVAL and disable_irq_wake()
  complains on Unbalanced IRQ 191.

 Now I see, but I don't know why disable_irq_wake() will complains about
 unbalance since it should really manage it well.

Because gpio_set_wake() returned EINVAL, set_irq_wake() assumed error
and did not increment wake_depth, the whole enable_irq_wake() was a big
NOP. disable_irq_wake() seen wake_depth being zero and complains.

 A quick dirty solution would be the platform to call keypad_set_wake()
 directly somewhere. Otherwise we have to let gpio_set_wake() to handle
 those keypad GPIOs and to live together with keypad_set_wake() happily,
 which is really difficult.

I was thinking about it as well (and even tested that it works):
gpio_set_wake():
if (d-keypad_gpio)
return keypad_set_wake(on);

But keypad_set_wake() always sets all keypad GPIOs, not just a single
one. And there is GPIO 36, that can be configured in more ways.

gpio_set_wake() and only set wake, keeping the mode as it was before.
(Well, it's again impossible for GPIO 36 without storing this
information somewhere.)

But well, another idea:

Only matrix_keypad driver should be aware of level triggered wakeup. All
other drivers could follow *_irq_wake documentation and not care about
it. If edge triggered interrupt is available, it should be preferred
there, if not, level triggered wake should be used instead. Hardware
designers should know what they are doing.

 pxa27x has its own specific keypad controller. And since we now

 such IRQ_KEYPAD, will have to setup the keypad GPIO wakeup
 as a whole.

Looking deeper into it, the problem seems to be elsewhere:
I just added debug message to start and end of set_irq_wake().

And here is what I got during suspend:

set_irq_wake() started IRQ: 191 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0
set_irq_wake() done IRQ: 191 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0
set_irq_wake() started IRQ: 108 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0

set_irq_wake() started IRQ: 135 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0
set_irq_wake() done IRQ: 135 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0
set_irq_wake() started IRQ: 31 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 0
set_irq_wake() done IRQ: 31 to 1, desc-wake_depth: 1

I think that if (desc-wake_depth == 0) when set_irq_wake(foo, 1) is
done, then something went wrong. And it is not surprise, that it reports
Unbalanced IRQ on resume.

Note that other people (Cyril Hrubiš) with a bit different .config
report success with gpio keys driver turned on.

It should (I don't have the latest vanilla just now). And
using /proc/mtd it could be identified.

  Kernel makes no guarantee of partition order. It depends on order of
  evaluation. If both drivers (PROM, NAND) are in modules, it can vary
  even across reboots.
 
 Ok, so what to do? Patch the kernel?

It is more generic problem. It seems that kernel does not guarantee
order of devices. The order changed even for CF slots: In 2.6.26
internal slot was listed first. Now external slot is listed first.

The same problem affects keyboard (kernel with CE-RH2 remote support

 How do other boards with NOR and NAND do?

Modern devices use OneNAND or similar and don't need any PROM. With a
single MTD, numbers are stable.

But this is critical problem only for boot. In the user space, there is
a lot of chances to prevent it (udev, mount by ID).

 Imho we should respect the factory layout and keep kernel in mtd1.

Note: I sent a patch to the kernel that fixes PROM layout and introduces
two partitions in PROM: Boot PROM System and EN-JP DB3.

So it would not be possible. Either mtd0 or mtd2.

 You can make it yourself. Here is manual in german: 
 http://www.relei.de/zaurusfernb.html

There is an incorrect value in the table.

To Rene Kommzu: Could you fix marked values, please?

Correct resistor values for CE-RH2 (serial connection of resistors):

R1 330 Ohm Stop
R2 470 Ohm Play/Pause
R3 680 Ohm Next Song
R4 910 Ohm Volume Up
R5 1.5 kOhm Previous Song
R6 3.3 kOhm Mute
R7 10 kOhm Volume Down--

Resistances (for serial connection):

And in table Testwerte zwischen Pin GND und Key please also correct:
T7 17190 Ohm  --

Maybe some e-shops still have it. But it costs $100 together with
headphones[1].

 I guess it should
 be quite easy to make one...?

Yes, it is. Some people even modified $10 remote for another device to
fit Zaurus.

The connector is a standard R-ring 3.5mm barrel connector[2]. But be
aware, cheap 3.5mm barrel connectors that don't exactly conform to the
standard size don't fit inside.

But I think that the generic driver should easily handle any similar
remote.

It can be used also as input for one analog potentiometer, as two range
resistance meter (well, in high-resistance mode you would need polling),
voltmeter 0-to-ref or as a 1-bit output or input GPIO.

 Ok, I guess I should fix audio, first...

It does not work? Last time I tried vanilla kernel, it worked without
any problems. At least for high bit rates.

I remember that I prepared a patch and fixed capitalization of these

Evolution Mail will include invisible characters to your mail.

Let's see whether it is fixed in the evolution-2.28.
