infinityogra_: Reviewed and accepted.02:25
infinityogra_: A bit shocked that those drivers don't both ship in the same tarball (or even just as the same driver), but whatever.  nvidia never ceases to confuse.02:25
lilstevieinfinity, heh that is nvidia for you, I'm not even quite sure what the difference between the T2 and T3 pack is yet03:09
=== LetoTheII is now known as LetoThe2ns

marvin24lilstevie: the avp firmware is different, but that's also a different tarball ...07:38
lilsteviemarvin24, yeah I know the avp firmware is, but that is cause the avp is different in general from what we have seen07:44
lilsteviemarvin24, but the acceleration xorg driver and libs that you guys package up for the ac100 work just fine on the tf20107:45
marvin24lilstevie: the original tar gz (for up to abi 12) contains a lot more08:22
marvin24e.g. kernel, bootloader, ...08:22
marvin24abi13 driver was released as a single tegra_drv.so (which is identical for tegra2/3)08:22
lilsteviemarvin24, oh yeah, bootloader and stuff could easily go in the same tarball though08:45
lilsteviegiven size is not big08:45

marvin24maybe customers may get confused if they see more than one kernel ;-)09:20
lilsteviemaybe09:44
lilsteviealthough that would be a little troubling :p09:44

wookeyinfinity: my build is failing with ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/init-first.c:102:1: sorry, unimplemented: function profiling13:28
wookeyand indeed it is unimplemented. Where do I turn it off for the arm64 build?13:28
wookey(eglibc)13:29
wookeyaha debian/sysdeps/arm64.mk looks plausible. --disable-profile13:33
dokoogra_, is the openscenegraph ftbfs on arm the gl/gles problem?14:29
ogra_dunno, i didnt even know it ftbfs14:29
dokoasking because a whole lot of things b-d on it14:29
ogra_(/me is on a special forces project until UDS ... so i didnt follow the ftbfs list)14:30
janimomarvin24, what's the prospect of ac100 being all mainlined, any ETA?15:15
janimoany blockers still?15:15
* janimo hopes it's there by 13.04 :)15:15
marvin24janimo: it is (all) mainlined for over a year now15:15
marvin24unfortunately, tegra2 support isn't ...15:15
marvin24I would also prefer to move to mainline for 13.0415:16
marvin24we already lost supend with 3.1, so it shouldn't matter if we lose some more stuff ;-)15:16
janimomarvin24, well I mean ac100 support as in working out of the box :)15:17
janimoand your insight on where the tegra2 upstreaming stands15:17
* ogra_ doesnt think there is anything gfoing on wrt upstreaming the tegra2/3 bits15:18
ogra_especially in the light that they are mostly developed for android which uses snapshot kernels15:19
ogra_as long as android moves with that practice i doubt we'll see changes here15:20
marvin24janimo: it works out of the box if you add the drm driver15:20
marvin24ogra_: wrong, e.g. today lp2 support was added for tegra315:21
ogra_ah, nice15:21
marvin24I think tegra2 has it already15:21
janimowhat's lp215:21
ogra_well, they still build their binary drivers against a special kernel tag usually15:21
marvin24but I haven't looked lately15:21
ogra_and i doubt that will change in the short term15:22
ogra_marvin24, janimo's dream is to use mainline for ac100 (and other tegras) in 13.0415:22
marvin24ogra_: tegra drm will likely come to staging in 3.815:22
ogra_when is 3.8 due ?15:23
marvin24and "they" already made some changes to mainline to get their propietary driver working15:23
janimo6 mo probably15:23
ogra_early 20013 ?15:23
ogra_oops15:23
marvin24no, we are not that slow15:23
ogra_didnt mean to exaggerate that much :)15:23
marvin24;-)15:23
marvin24so we will endup in a situation where both drivers are supported15:24
marvin24the open one likely without any 3d or video accel15:24
ogra_thats fine15:24
ogra_and thats how i use the closed one atm :)15:24
marvin24I hope I didn't look too deep into the glass15:24
ogra_on my ac100 at least15:25
lilstevieyeah, O cam15:26
lilstevieer15:26
lilstevieI can't say I use the 3D and video accel on my prime either15:27
ogra_well, and what for :)15:29
ogra_there isnt really much thats built for GLES15:29
=== Xav_ is now known as XavB
lilstevieogra_, yeah, and I really don't watch videos on my prime anyway15:36

ppisatiogra_: by any chance, did you try Q on your beagle?16:05
ogra_nope16:05
ppisatiok16:05
ppisatianyway, problem found and fix too16:06
ppisatii'll send a pull req tonight16:06
ppisati(after gym)16:06
ogra_ppisati, you rock !16:06
ogra_will test with the fix then16:06

sakoman_was the CONFIG_HIMEM issue on Pandaboard ever resolved?21:02
sakoman_(i.e. random crashes when trying to do a kernel build if CONFIG_HIMEM was set)21:03
ogra_ogra@panda:~$ grep HIGHMEM /boot/config-3.5.0-211-omap421:04
ogra_# CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is not set21:04
ogra_CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y21:04
ogra_we have it enabled since a while, so yes21:05
ogra_at least in 12.04 and 12.10 it should be fine21:05
sakoman_do you recall what the issue root cause was?21:05
ogra_no, but there was a bug21:05
sakoman_I'm working on another OMAP4 based system and it too has random crashes if HIMEM is enabled :-(21:05
sakoman_running 3.621:06
ogra_bug 63322721:06
ubot2Launchpad bug 633227 in linux-ti-omap4 "instabilities with highmem activated" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/63322721:06
ogra_we use 3.5 in 12.10, seems pretty solid21:06
ogra_but we dont use mainline. mind you21:07
sakoman_hmmm . . . not really clear from that bug exactly what fixed the problem :-(21:10
GrueMasterWhat ever became of devicetree for arm?  I'm reading articles covering the 3.7 kernel, and they don't even seem the same.21:17
rsalvetisakoman_: I don't think we got to the point of finding exactly what was the patch that fixed the issue21:57
rsalvetiI believe that at some point it just worked as expected21:57
tintiHi, can someone give me a hint about how to debug linux kernel boot without JTAG? I was thinking in use early_printk and try to use usb debug21:58
=== Ursinha_ is now known as Ursinha
=== rsalveti_ is now known as rsalveti
wookeytinti: DEBUG_LL is useful in early linux boot23:58
tintiwookey: thanks :)23:58
wookeymaybe that's what's called early_printk these days23:58
wookeyit writes direct to serial port23:58
wookeyor probably USB these days, as no-one has serial ports anymore23:59
