08:40 <dlezcano> mmind00, while playing with the thermal I noticed a misuse of the thermal cooling device and the thermal zones

08:40 <dlezcano> mmind00, performances are considerably dropped with the Intelligent Power Allocator

08:42 <dlezcano> mmind00, GPU and big CPUs have the same cooling device, hence the IPA allocates max power to CPU by capping the GPU power

08:42 <dlezcano> mmind00, but actually it caps the big CPUs and we end up with the big CPUs running at a lowest freq

08:48 <mmind00> dlezcano: hmm, found that in the dtsi ... looking at the chromeos kernel, the thermal_zones look quite a bit different ... any suggestions on how to fix that? I haven't done that much with the whole thermal handling so far

09:02 <dlezcano> mmind00, I'll have a look

09:02 <mmind00> dlezcano: thanks :-)

09:02 <dlezcano> mmind00, however removing simply the GPU thermal zone breaks the driver

09:03 <dlezcano> mmind00, because it expects all the sensor to be registered

09:03 <dlezcano> mmind00, so we have to fix the thermal driver also

09:03 <dlezcano> mmind00, by registering only the defined sensor find in the DT

09:05 <mmind00> dlezcano: sounds sensible ... looking at the chromeos kernel, it looks like they hacked around that issue ;-) ... https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/refs/heads/chromeos-4.4/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399.dtsi#779

18:15 <mrjay> how to generate boot.img for rk3399 ? i keep getting this: https://pastebin.com/bQ5rkePc

21:07 <mrjay> spl boots! yay :)
