I want to see if those & alias or whathever they are called end up with those values or different ones
<MaDMaLKaV>
need some fresh air, bbl
<vpeter>
MaDMaLKaV: Just decompile both and compare the result?

<MaDMaLKaV>
wow, yeah
<MaDMaLKaV>
great idea man
<MaDMaLKaV>
I would rather understand how it works, but this is a great workaround to verify stuff meanwhile, thanks
<chewitt>
I wouldn't worry about the compiled values
<chewitt>
It's the origina/source values that count
<chewitt>
what's the actual device you have?

a5x max , a cheapo rk3328 tv box
<chewitt>
so you said you've a working (booting) dts that's only missing wifi/bt ?
<chewitt>
can you pastebin the source dts?
<MaDMaLKaV>
I have a working DTB that have ethernet, but not wifi, bt or ir. Don't have the sources for that one
<MaDMaLKaV>
I also have a DTB with wifi but not ethernet, bt or ir. I have the sources for that one -is the trn9 one on LE git-

<chewitt>
can you pastebin the decompiled one you don't have sources for?
<MaDMaLKaV>
I have tried several combinations of dtbs and images to get an idea of what works and what doesn't , and have compared the values in /sys devicetree with my /sys devicetree on android and a dts from an android upgrade an user provided in another forum
<vpeter>
Don't have sources: decompile it :)
<MaDMaLKaV>
yeah, sure, gimme some minutes
<MaDMaLKaV>
vpeter: yeah, well, that is good but I'm also trying to understand what I'm doing , I want to learn a little, not just copy/paste like mad :)
<chewitt>
first objective is to mod the trn9 dts to have working ethernet
<chewitt>
as without source dts, you're a bit screwed to make changes
<chewitt>
(not impossible, but lots more complicated)
<MaDMaLKaV>
I was actually working on that , basically

<MaDMaLKaV>
all the power stuff seems also more similar to the decompiled mx10 dtb than to the trn9
<MaDMaLKaV>
wish I had that one to use as base...
<MaDMaLKaV>
seems like my device and mx10 have a lot of stuff in common with the evb dts
<MaDMaLKaV>
ummm, I sitll need to figure out how to compile the dts on the kernel, dtc gives and error because there is stuff for kernel preprocessor it doesn't understand

make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=dunno_lol dtbs
<chewitt>
are you working with LE or a generic OS?
<MaDMaLKaV>
LE
<chewitt>
create a patch for the kernel source and just recompile the linux package
<chewitt>
PROJECT=Rockchip DEVICE=3328 ARCH=arm scripts/build linux
<chewitt>
PROJECT=Rockchip DEVICE=3328 ARCH=arm UBOOT_SYSTEM=trn9 scripts/build linux
<chewitt>
^ UBOOT_SYSTEM will be required
<chewitt>
as long as you've compiled the rest of the image it's only a couple of mins to respin the image
<MaDMaLKaV>
I'm doing what you told me, I'm just a little slow -I have to see how to do what you told me before doing it ^^ -
<chewitt>
how familiar are you with git?
<MaDMaLKaV>
OK, patch file generated
<MaDMaLKaV>
chewitt, somewhat familiar, not much
<MaDMaLKaV>
about UBOOT_SYSTEM , I dunno what you are talking about
<MaDMaLKaV>
I'm looking at the options file in the RK3328 folder , I think I need to add a line with KERNEL_MAKE_EXTRACMD+=" rockchip/rk3328-box-a5x.dtb"
