04:46 <chewitt> narmstrong another interesting splat, from SM1 (VIM3L) overnight https://pastebin.com/raw/42w752TY

04:50 <Tonymac32> chewitt what are you doing to that poor thing? :)

04:50 <chewitt> leaving it to idle overnight .. very stressful for them

04:51 <Tonymac32> Hmm I haven't tried anything with 5.9 yet

04:54 <chewitt> I haven't had much time to poke things recently.. real job is busy

04:54 <chewitt> but it seems to be no better or worse than 5.7 which is the last one I made effort on

05:12 <chewitt> Tonymac32 has the armbian vs. tvbox shenanigans died down yet?

05:12 <Tonymac32> lol Oleg is still making TV box stuff, but I don't thinki we've resolved the naming

05:13 <Tonymac32> I don't venture into there unless I have a TV box I want to double-side tape to something

15:49 <hexdump0815> narmstrong: what are the files used for the your pyamlboot script - i mean the u-boot.bin.usb.bl2 and u-boot.bin.usb.tpl ... i guess one is based on bl2 and acs config and the other maybe on bl3* and u-boot.bin - are there any notes on how to build them?

15:51 <hexdump0815> narmstrong: i assume the usbbl2runpara_ddrinit.bin and usbbl2runpara_runfipimg.bin are some magic headers which were dd'ed from existing u-boot.bin.usb files? if not how were they created and are they generic for amlogic or only for gxl etc.?

15:51 <hexdump0815> repk: maybe you have an idea regarding the above too?

16:22 <tuxd3v> hexdump0815, thanks for your patch for atf on S905X3, I didn't tried it yet, but I will!

16:23 <narmstrong> hexdump0815: the usb.bl2/tpl are generated the same time as the final u-boot.bin

16:24 <narmstrong> The runpara stuff are given with pyamlboot, these are fixed blobs used to run the ddr and fip steps in usb

16:28 <hexdump0815> narmstrong: but for instance here nothing is mentioned about the usb versions: https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/doc/board/amlogic/khadas-vim.rst ... and in case they would come out of u-boot make then all the bl2 bl3* and acs stuff would be missing ...

16:31 <hexdump0815> narmstrong: i hexdumped them against some of the blobs and gxlimg output files but was not able to find any 1:1 relation to the usb files

17:13 <repk> hexdump0815 sorry I have no idea how USB boot is supposed to work on amlogic boards. I remember meeting block of assembly that did that in bl2 be never took the effort to try to make sense out of them.

17:36 <hexdump0815> repk: thanks anyway

17:36 <hexdump0815> tuxd3v: you are welcome and credits go to neil mostly :)

22:07 <BorgCuba> hi, I decided to connect my mxq box with only USB-A sockets to my computer with a (MXQ)A-(self-soldered double micro-b adapter)-A(PC) and it enumertaes as 1b8e:c003

22:07 <BorgCuba> but the "upgrade" tool fails and my attempt to set a configuration fails with -EPROTO

22:08 <BorgCuba> I wonder if the wiring is wrong, but then it enumerates correctly but just the usb control/bulk commands afterwards do fail

22:09 <BorgCuba> I was also running it as SU as well as with a new udev rule and restarting udev

22:09 <BorgCuba> any ideas?

22:09 <BorgCuba> btw, this has a amlogic s905 soc

22:10 <BorgCuba> totally locked down rom
