<multi_io> KotCzarny:
<multi_io> 15:10 < KotCzarny> multi_io: you have 2 options. 1/ mainline one, which doesnt use b53 module, 2/ patching b53 back into mainline
<multi_io> I read the thread you mentioned, but it's still not clear to me what works on mainline
<multi_io> https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/issues/511#issuecomment-258106972 seems to explain just how to set up a software bridge and VLANs on existing physical interfaces lan0..3 and wan, which I don't seem to have after booting on mainline kernel without the b53 driver loaded
<multi_io> so how do I do this without b53?

<KotCzarny> multi_io: i think it's in CONFIG_HAVE_NET_DSA
<KotCzarny> it was long time since i've built the kernel
<KotCzarny> you can check what armbian sets in config
<KotCzarny> so dsa and b53 in dsa
<KotCzarny> most likely if you enable dsa in menuconfig you will get option to enable b53 too
leviathan has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<multi_io> yeah, that's all enabled by default already in mainline
<KotCzarny> then if you have eth0 and standard linux vlan/bridge utils you dont need anything else and just try those scripts from the thread?
<multi_io> root@bananapi:~# brctl addbr brr-lan; brctl addif br-lan lan0
<multi_io> interface lan0 does not exist!
<multi_io> is lan0 supposed to exist via the driver?
<KotCzarny> i assume you have vlan and bridging also enabled in .config?
<multi_io> well, brctl addbr worked, so I guess I do
<multi_io> "bridge" module is loaded
<multi_io> kernel logs "8021q: 802.1Q VLAN Support v1.8" at the first brctl addbr call
<multi_io> I'm using the standard armbian .config for the -next (vanilla) kernel
muvlon has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<multi_io> Cannot find device "lan0" Cannot find device "lan1" etc.pp.
<multi_io> also, lan0, lan1, lan2, lan3, lan4, wan would be 6 interfaces, but the box has only 5 ports..?
<multi_io> I really don't understand how this is supposed to work or under which preconditions that script is supposed to operate
jernej has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
<multi_io> the "ip link add link eth0 name eth0.102 type vlan id 102" succeded and created eth0.102
<multi_io> same for .101
<multi_io> br0, br1 were created successfully too
muvlon has joined #linux-sunxi
<KotCzarny> sixth is connected internally to soc
<KotCzarny> and for deleting it's expected to say 'not found'
<KotCzarny> as it's just housekeeping between script runs
<multi_io> yeah, still the "ip link set lan1 master br0" complained "Cannot find device "lan1""
<KotCzarny> what kernel are you using?
<multi_io> whole script run under -x: http://pastebin.com/eT4yGTV4
<multi_io> Linux bananapi 4.10.3-sunxi #1 SMP Thu Mar 16 22:07:54 UTC 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux
<KotCzarny> lan0-5 interfaces should be created if you use new b53 driver and proper device tree
<KotCzarny> and it should say that lan-0-5 devices were created in dmesg on boot
<KotCzarny> btw. do you have b53_common as a module or built-in?
<KotCzarny> and rest of b53_*
<multi_io> using Armbian's default -next/mainline .config, which uses CONFIG_HAVE_NET_DSA=y CONFIG_NET_DSA=y CONFIG_NET_DSA_HWMON=y CONFIG_B53=y CONFIG_B53_SPI_DRIVER=m CONFIG_B53_MDIO_DRIVER=y CONFIG_B53_MMAP_DRIVER=m CONFIG_B53_SRAB_DRIVER=m
<KotCzarny> do you have b53_mdio loaded?
<multi_io> I modprobed the =m things after booting
<multi_io> before running the script
<KotCzarny> rmmod all b53_* modules, then load b53_mdio and b53_common, then see if lanX interfaces were created?
<multi_io> dmesg & lsmod: http://pastebin.com/nMGveByE
<KotCzarny> you dont have b53_mdio at all
<multi_io> it's compiled in
<multi_io> CONFIG_B53_MDIO_DRIVER=y
<KotCzarny> ahm. ok
<multi_io> no dmesg output on rmmod / modprobe of the b53_* things
<KotCzarny> what dtb are you using?
<KotCzarny> hmm, [ 4.230737] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): PHY ID 03625f24 at 0 IRQ POLL (stmmac-0:00) active
<KotCzarny> unnamed net_device? wth?
<KotCzarny> if you do ifconfig -a or ip addr what interfaces show up?
<multi_io> only eth0, wlan0, bond0
<KotCzarny> maybe stmmac broke b53
<multi_io> (before the script ran -- after than I also had eth0.10[12], but anyway)
<KotCzarny> funsies
<KotCzarny> can you try 4.9.x ?
<multi_io> how do I know which dtb I have? sorry
<KotCzarny> your uboot config should load some dtb file
<KotCzarny> so probably in /boot/boot.scr
<KotCzarny> i would suggest you checking latest 4.8 or 4.9 then if those work most likely stmmac broke
<multi_io> ok I can try that.
<multi_io> how do these dtb things work? armbian provides them for all the supported boards, and u-boot just loads them so the kernel knows what hardware is there?
<KotCzarny> those dtb files are compiled with the kerne
<KotCzarny> when you do make dtbs
<KotCzarny> then you copy the one you want to /boot and make it load with the kernel
<KotCzarny> they are describing your hardware, what devices you have, where to find them etc, so kernel know what to initialize/run
<KotCzarny> *knows
reinforce has joined #linux-sunxi
<KotCzarny> they are in arch/arm/boot/dts/
<KotCzarny> and you only need to compile them once (they dont depend on kernel .config)
<KotCzarny> you can also just use armbian's provided kernel for bpir1
<KotCzarny> could save you some hassle

<wens> techping: the designware uart is compatible with 16650, with a minor glitch in handling baud rate changes when the uart is busy
<wens> since this never happens in u-boot, one can ignore it, and just use it as a standard 16650
<wens> later versions actually fix it, with a register switch to change the behavior
<wens> that switch is available in the allwinner version
<techping> that sounds good

<williamfligor> Yeah let me know what your WiFi performance is like.

<williamfligor> The behavior of the WiFi is super strange, if I keep pinging I don't have a problem but if I stop for a short amount of time it gets a ping every 20-30 attempts and sometimes it recovers.
<tkaiser> The lack of any USB type A receptacle is IMO a sign, we'll see a few more boards with Zero form factor (relying on their $2 'Dock' or to be combined with the NAS Expansion board and probably others that will follow)

<tkaiser> williamfligor: NanoPi Air should perform identical to all other Allwinner SBC with onboard WiFi. What does the output of 'iwconfig' tell regarding powermanagement? If on it's time to do a 'iwconfig wlan0 power off'
<williamfligor> @tkaiser I have tried turning power management off using "iw dev wlan0 set power_save off" I think that does the same thing?
<tkaiser> williamfligor: No idea, am still a Wi-Fi noob (at least some progress, before I was a 'Wi-Fi on Linux' hater). Can only tell the way Armbian does it currently and that at least with the legacy Ampak driver it makes a huge difference wrt powermanagement.
<williamfligor> Heh yeah I am pretty new to this - I think the mainline armbian nightly also showed the same behavior but I can't remember exactly.
<tkaiser> williamfligor: https://dl.armbian.com/nanopiair/ should work out of the box and some tried to get a clue regarding Wi-Fi performance with some modules/drivers collected here: https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/3739-wi-fi-performance-and-known-issues-on-sbc/&do=findComment&comment=27147

<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: Saturating GbE of course, won't be different with ARMADA 3700
<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: Just as a general advice when playing with iperf/iperf3. You need 3 devices for tests. Two to ensure you exceed 940Mbits/sec in between so you can test against the real (3rd) device. Otherwise results are numbers without meaning.
<TheLinuxBug> tkaiser: what do you consider saturated, as I was saying yesterday I was getting ~75M/sec up and ~70M/sec down, though this could be a limitation of the server I was testing to and not the ESPRESSObin.
<tkaiser> And then both tools are bottlenecked by CPU performance so when you downclock your SoC to the min you get worse numbers. Also behaviour might depend on GCC version the binaries have been compiled with. Which OS do you use currently?
<TheLinuxBug> Debian on the server I am testing to and Ubuntu 16.04 on ESPRESSObin
leviathan has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
<MoeIcenowy> no I think the number will be a low bound, saying that the speed will be at least not worse than the number you get ;-)
<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: 'Saturated' is 940Mbits/sec. Regarding Debian vs. Ubuntu please see different results here: https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/1917-armbian-running-on-pine64-and-other-a64h5-devices/&do=findComment&comment=14673
<TheLinuxBug> tkaiser: also I meant to ask, currently it seems their kernel limits the CPU to 800mhz per core or how is that actually managed? From what I can tell the max scaling speed is 800mhz..

<TheLinuxBug> is there a way to actually get other options or is this controled by the DTB file?

<tkaiser> buZz: even mentioning Marvell is already ;)
<lurchi_> The ESPRESSObin is also the only affordable device which supports AVB/TSN
<buZz> ;)
<buZz> i do like how marvell is praising the ESP8266 in their naming
<buZz> espressif is really cool

<buZz> suuuure totally not surfing on the IoT naming schemes for popularity ;)
<buZz> lurchi_: xmos has a 200 channel AVB board if you're into that kinda stuff
<buZz> ehr, 32 channel

<buZz> ah, maybe just get a switch then, instead of a SoC ;)
<lurchi_> buZz: for AVB, you need a switch with dedicated hardware support
<buZz> that seems like a flaw in design
<lurchi_> buZz: you have to know how long a packet stayed in the queue
<lurchi_> you also need bandwidth reservation and priorization

<deskwizard> Interesting
<MoeIcenowy> not all.
<TheLinuxBug> MoeIcenowy: awesome :D
<TheLinuxBug> MoeIcenowy: do you have one already?
<MoeIcenowy> early sample.
<MoeIcenowy> with SPI NOR soldered and no stamp holes
<TheLinuxBug> interesting, what do you think of it, also, am I correct in understanding that it has enough NAND/emmc space that you can actually run a system without the sdcard if you want (I know your limited)
JohnDoe_71Rus has joined #linux-sunxi
<TheLinuxBug> ?
<MoeIcenowy> TheLinuxBug: nope.
<MoeIcenowy> Although there's reservation for SPI NOR
<MoeIcenowy> there's no enough support for SPI NOR in mainline U-Boot now
<TheLinuxBug> hmm, was wondering how you would make use of the wifi module if you have to boot from SD?
<MoeIcenowy> the dock have another SD slot
<TheLinuxBug> I mean I know you can solder it
<TheLinuxBug> yeah im not getting the dock
Mr__Anderson has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<TheLinuxBug> so I guess the answer is I need an sd card splitter of some type, if that is possible? hmm
<MoeIcenowy> no...

<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: Just carefully read through the Indiegogo page again ;)
<TheLinuxBug> um I did and they said SPI Flash Nor 16MB/32MB and Nand 128MB
<TheLinuxBug> are you saying there is a driver issues that prevents the NAND from working as well?
<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: No, I thought you were asking about coexistence of SD card and Wi-Fi card? I would believe when attaching Wi-Fi card to the pin header that's a different SDIO bus. But might be wrong.
<TheLinuxBug> tkaiser: no actually what I want to know is if there is enough room on NAND and a way to boot it where I could use the wifi in there and not have to worry about an sdcard at all. Of course I see it can be 'slodered' to it after installing the pins, but I was hoping to avoid even having to mess with adding the pins
<TheLinuxBug> I am guessing by MoeIcenowy's comments that SPI is the main reason that won't work
<TheLinuxBug> seeing as you would need uboot on sdcard to boot>?
leviathan_ has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
<tkaiser> TheLinuxBug: Is there SPI flash presoldered?
<MoeIcenowy> tkaiser: currently no
<TheLinuxBug> hmmmmmmm
<MoeIcenowy> only pre-soldered on sample batch
<TheLinuxBug> I swear when I read through the specs it bot SPI and NAND were mentioned
<TheLinuxBug> but I can't even find the specs on the page now O_o
apritzel1 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]

<TheLinuxBug> MoeIcenowy: yes but now I am very confused, does the board come with SPI and NAND or is it simply compatible with them. Cause I am telling you, before I backed it I read the specs and there was listed in it a 128MB NADA and the SPI as coming on the board. Even someone in comments asks about this but doesn't get a very clear answer.
<MoeIcenowy> only compatible with it.
<TheLinuxBug> thats very frustrating
<TheLinuxBug> so basically when I receieve the board I will have no way to use the Wifi at all unless I solder the pins on... pft
<MoeIcenowy> and for SPI NAND it may be only able to work as storage, but not boot from it.
<TheLinuxBug> Well I figured , based on what I read and watching the video, that uboot was in SPI and it would load system from NAND
lurchi__ is now known as lurchi_
<MoeIcenowy> no the U-Boot is on SPI NOR.
<TheLinuxBug> but I guess at this point your saying SPI isn't even included and obviously since they changed their page to no longer show the specs I am gonna guess they are no longer providing the NAND either.
<MoeIcenowy> I think they never provide SPI NAND at all
<MoeIcenowy> and SPI NOR is always optional, since it's on indiegogo
<TheLinuxBug> im telling you I was very careful reading before I backed it and it was there on the page..
<TheLinuxBug> someone in comments even says
<TheLinuxBug> "Hi, great project, I just have one question: In the diagram I see “SPI Flash Nor 16MB/32MB Nand 128MB”, but in the “Zero’s system & application example” under buildroot you say " you can put the kernel&rootfs into 8MB SPI flash". So what will be the size of SPI flash on the final boards?"
<TheLinuxBug> so I know I am not going crazy
<KotCzarny> you are going crazy
<TheLinuxBug> meh I am crazy I guess
<TheLinuxBug> why I hang out with you people here ;p

<MoeIcenowy> yes it's the OTG port
<TheLinuxBug> MoeIcenowy: okay I finally found where Wu replied and stated that the SPI would not be soldered on, so at least that is stated openly in the comments, allbeit hidden under "See 1 more reply..."
<TheLinuxBug> Welp, that is depressing. Moving on...

lurchi_ is now known as lurchi__
<ssvb> MoeIcenowy: isn't it so that there are 2 alternative patch series for the SPI support in the main U-Boot? also it is not difficult at all to load the kernel into RAM from the SPL
<ssvb> MoeIcenowy: or do you want a wiki page with detailed instructions how to do this?
<MoeIcenowy> MoeIcenowy: I'm only waiting for it to get really merged
<MoeIcenowy> and in fact I don't like the idea to store rootfs on SPI NOR...
<ssvb> storing initrd is good enough
<ssvb> yes, we get a read-only file system, but I don't know what are the intended uses of a rootfs which is so small
<ssvb> definitely not a general purpose linux system

<multi_io> yeah, thanks for your help
<KotCzarny> all the mentioned warnings about b53 still hold true for mainline
<KotCzarny> ie. in poweron/after reset state is acting as a dumb switch
