u-boot is loaded (great) but trying to load from FAT (and my system does not have FAT only the raw area for the bootloader and the rootfs containing the kernel
<KotCzarny>
why dont you try armbian?
<keesj>
Is this a standard setup? do I need to modify the device tree?
<KotCzarny>
maybe it supports your board
<keesj>
Well.. I was but they do not support the a10
<KotCzarny>
ahm
<KotCzarny>
pity
<KotCzarny>
anyway, do you build your own uboot or use some precompiled one?
<keesj>
(no longer) yea.. but I think that with a recent kernel + debian 10 I am going to be quite happy. I build my own u-boot (as on the wiki page ) based on 2019-7
<KotCzarny>
why is it loading 2020.01 then?
<keesj>
thanks for spotting that I am going to try the recommended version
<KotCzarny>
yeah, sometimes using older and proven version might be better than bleeding edge
<keesj>
(i was on the master branch)
<KotCzarny>
which often contains some new bugs
<keesj>
It does first try to boot from mmc
<KotCzarny>
that's spl loading real uboot
<KotCzarny>
just try some older uboot, untill you find working one

and if older one works with the same setup, report a bug, and maybe try to find where it stopped working
<keesj>
"funny" is that all shipped dtbs' have fffffffff as id (that does not sound right)
<keesj>
from that log I was able to see only the build-in dtbs where parsed and I acutally missed a entry pointing to the device tree... I am now a level 4 :/ I think I will get it working today

my bpim3 made me crazy, I have shutdown the port of the USB hub (via uhubctl) where it is connected and it is still powered. any other USB dongle dont work on this port when down
<montjoie>
from where did it get power
<KotCzarny>
:>
<KotCzarny>
uart?
<KotCzarny>
is something connected to usb?
<montjoie>
removing the serial does not change the behavour
<KotCzarny>
what other cables?
<montjoie>
network
<montjoie>
nothing more
<montjoie>
but removing the power cable bring it down
<KotCzarny>
maybe you turn off wrong port
<montjoie>
so the power came from it

<montjoie>
I checked the port with some USB dongle
<montjoie>
and powering down the port works on this hub, since my opi3 is managed on it
<KotCzarny>
maybe it has some power capacitors that keep it alive for some time
<montjoie>
no it gets powered for long
<montjoie>
it is 1 hour now...
<KotCzarny>
afair there is no poe on bpim3
<montjoie>
since unplugin cable bring it down I am sure it came from the usb cable
<[TheBug]>
from my recollection a lot of the boards share a power line straight from SoC to USB and it is never disabled -- thus why you can power board by GPIO pin and have it also still power usb ports, even if the port is disabled, this won't disable power supply, only SoC waiting on connection of device... least that has been my understanding -- but maybe I am not understanding your use case
florian has joined #linux-sunxi
<montjoie>
by port I mean the USB hub port is disabled
<[TheBug]>
right but not sure that is disabling power line, I have seen in a few design that power line not controled by the hub
<montjoie>
I am using an USB hub as power switch
<montjoie>
and I am sure it works since I power switch the opi3 with it
<[TheBug]>
ohh external hub?
<montjoie>
yes
<[TheBug]>
sorry then I did misunderstand
<[TheBug]>
apologies

<montjoie>
no problem

<KotCzarny>
but if it survives disabling port, then something is wrong

hmm it turns out usb ain't working :( sun4i-usb-phy 1c13400.phy: Couldn't request ID GPIO
