nand or emmc?

so far we don't have boards with emmc, so i suppose support is not there

AFAIK, A31 detects where it boots by one switch, it could be sd card, emmc, usb, right/
09:37
<
kurain >
so if I want to boot it from inner emmc, I will have to build uboot with the specified mmc controller

the A31 hummingbird has NAND, not emmc

oh, but someone told me that I should use mainline sunxi-uboot branch

that's why i said; i'm not sure if it was pulled upstream; i don't see why nto
11:36

this u-boot kept by github hangs on

if I defined the emmc in u-boot, then I can find dual mmc devices there, right/

this is how it was configured on the sunxi u-boot

ok, now I am using A31 soc, I will check if there exists some difference
11:38

kurain: mainline u-boot doesn't have support for all boards i don't think; so you'll have to figure it out ;)
11:38

kurain: ah, yeah, do we even have a31 memory support in our u-boot?
11:38
<
oliv3r >
don't think we do
11:38
<
oliv3r >
there's some preliminairy u-boot support for a31 last time i checked, but no DRAM controller afaik
11:39

so you are doomed to use the allwinner code anyhow

i don't know how it is handled in mainline atm

i don't see any sunxi specific talks yet (half the programs are out yet)
15:34
<
mripard >
it doesn't know or care what you want to do with the pin
15:35

oliv3r >
wens: oh there won't be, but i wrote a mail to the list to have a sunxi-dinner at saturday night :)
15:35
<
oliv3r >
mripard: ah, so still have to define the interrupt
15:35
<
mripard >
wens: yeah, there's cheap but decent sandwiches and belgian beers
15:35
<
oliv3r >
mripard: by looking at /proc/interrupt, it should read 'gic' if it is 'used properly'
15:35
<
mripard >
and there's some food carts
15:36
<
wens >
ah, ok, so i'll be hanging around IT / sysadmin talks then
15:36
<
mripard >
oliv3r: hmmmm what?
15:36
<
oliv3r >
maybe we can do a sunxi talk next year again
15:36
<
mripard >
what's the relation between the gic and pinctrl?
15:36
<
oliv3r >
well i want to have a gpio as irq capable pin using the rotary input driver
15:37
<
oliv3r >
so i am looking at /proc/interrupts and see that a lot of devices are using the GIC (arm interupt controller thing)
15:37
<
oliv3r >
except for mmc chip detect (weird) and my rotary encoder
15:37
<
oliv3r >
so that would indicate i set something up wrong
15:37
<
wens >
the chip detect uses the gpio irq
15:37
<
philippe_fouquet >
and the write protect’s nand is conect to a RC
15:37
<
philippe_fouquet >
that good for locking at power up but not for power down
15:37
<
wens >
the '-' is because we never set the .name field for the irqchip
15:38
konradoo77 has joined #linux-sunxi
15:38
<
oliv3r >
wens: ah ok, becuase we set .name = "irq" for the pin, right?
15:39
<
oliv3r >
function.name i guess is more appropiate
15:40
<
wens >
in /proc/interrupts, that field ("GIC") tells you which interrupt controller (or irq_chip) handles that interrupt
15:41
<
wens >
the name is set in struct irq_chip, which we never bothered to set in the pinctrl/gpio driver
15:41
<
oliv3r >
ah ok, so that could use a minor patch then?
15:41
<
wens >
i had one some time ago as part of the wifi stuff i think
15:42
<
wens >
don't think i have it anymore
15:42
<
wens >
anyway, it's a trivial oneliner
15:43
<
wens >
it is, but the interrupt stuff isn't really tested i think
15:43
<
wens >
so you're getting the gpio, then calling gpio_to_irq?
15:43
<
wens >
that should work
15:43
<
oliv3r >
i'm not doing anything technically; the rotary encoder driver exists allready
15:44
<
oliv3r >
but yes, it allready does that
15:44

you should use the gpio_in function

for the pins

ah, ok; i looked at the defines, and saw that the .name = 'irq' is eventually set
15:47
<
oliv3r >
ah, so i define the pin as a regular gpio_input
15:47
<
oliv3r >
and the gpio_to_irq functions 'remaps' the pin as an EINT
15:47
<
oliv3r >
what settings are overridden though? the pull up works nicely
15:47
<
wens >
just the function
15:47
<
oliv3r >
i got the encoder hooked up to a scope and it looks nice
15:47
<
oliv3r >
and /proc/interrupts only shows
_handled_ interrupts,r ight?
15:48
<
oliv3r >
ok, so the driver is not handeling the interrupts then
15:48
<
oliv3r >
is there any way i can check the value of the pin while the driver is claming the pin
15:48
<
wens >
you can look at /sys/kernel/debug/irq_domain_mapping for all the interrupts
15:48
<
wens >
oliv3r: in hardware? devmem :)
15:49
<
oliv3r >
ok that works i suppose :p
15:49
<
wens >
the pinctrl system doesn't read back the values
15:49
<
oliv3r >
irq vs gpio_in could be a make or break difference?
15:50
<
oliv3r >
if i unload the driver, i can just export it as a regular gpio though again via sysfs?
15:50
<
wens >
don't think there's a difference
15:50
<
wens >
pinctrl gets handled by the driver core, before you request any gpios
15:50
<
oliv3r >
well i can see the value in sysfs
15:51
<
oliv3r >
so i need to remove the thing from my dt basically; and just go the regular gpio way then
15:55
<
wens >
also, iirc gpio_request_* doesn't do GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW or any other flags (they are ignored)

16:10

does it have, eth, sata, hdmi :p
16:11
<
oliv3r >
well ACTIVE_LOW or _HIGH shouldn't matter greatly to the driver
16:11
<
wens >
well hdmi was mentioned
16:11
<
oliv3r >
it might spew out crap i guess, but it should atleast still handle the IRQ
16:11
<
wens >
eth and sata dont matter on tablets :p
16:12
<
oliv3r >
as there is atleast some transistion, so the irq gets triggered
16:12
<
oliv3r >
though that new intel hdmi 'stick' is a nice device if it's fully OSS (hardware decoding etc)
16:13
<
oliv3r >
wens: anyway, i'll take 2 steps back, configure the pins as regular GPIO inputs, and use the gpio sys stuff to see if i get pin changes
16:13

if not, it might be htetranslator chip, though the pull up works, so there's something happening
