[opensuse-arm] AArch64 EFI builds
by Alexander Graf 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

Howdy, I've enabled a new "efi" target for AArch64 image builds. This target takes the default kernel and builds an image with it for SBSA and SBBA compliant AArch64 systems. In a nutshell, it hopefully allows us to have a single image for all AArch64 platforms we care about. To try it out, fetch it from http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/factory/images/ (a patched kiwi is still building, expect the images to drop out in a few hours - I've verified that the image is built correctly locally) and unless you have real hardware, get yourself a copy of the Foundation model: http://www.arm.com/products/tools/models/fast-models/foundation-model.php and a recent build of uEFI for the Foundation model: http://releases.linaro.org/13.12/components/kernel/uefi-linaro/uefi-bootstr… http://snapshots.linaro.org/components/kernel/linaro-edk2/22/release/uefi_f… Then you can just run a guest with $ Foundation_v8 \ --image=uefi-bootstrap-el3-foundation.axf \ --no-secure-memory \ --data=uefi_foundation.bin@0xa0000000 \ --block-device=openSUSE*efi*raw For some reason the firmware does not detect the default boot entry of the disk (to be debugged), so you have to manually point it to efi\boot\boota64.efi as boot binary in its menu. Then you should see grub showing up with a proper menu. You can select the entry it tries to start the kernel and then at least for me I get a good bunch of Synchronous Exception at 0x0000000080080210 but all of the groundwork is there for people to play with it now :). Happy ARM hacking! Alex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] U-Boot v2014.07 - volunteers?
by Andreas Färber 29 Aug '14

29 Aug '14

Hi, Handling a recent SR, I noticed that our Base:System u-boot is still at v2014.04. Some sun7i stuff landed in v2014.07, so our patches should hopefully start to shrink. https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Base:System/u-boot I'm a bit preoccupied with kernel work already - is there anyone who can take on updating the package? Also a heads-up that for the next release, v2014.10, they have switched to Kconfig, which will then require us to modify build commands from ..._config to ..._defconfig.

[opensuse-arm] Parallella booting
by Andreas Färber 25 Aug '14

25 Aug '14

Hi Sean et al., Yesterday I finally received my Parallella board and last night managed to get Factory working on it. I roughly summarized my steps here: http://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Parallella - U-Boot is already on flash - FAT partition with uImage, devicetree.dtb, parallella.bit.bin - rootfs as usual I'm hoping to get upstream kernel working, be it without HDMI, so holding off packaging their kernel. If someone else wants to, go ahead. Enjoy, Andreas P.S. If anyone in the US wants to buy one, their shop is about to reopen for selling their remaining stock (I seemed among the last to receive a pre-order). Afterwards it'll be available through distributors. The Parallella seems the cheepest option currently to get your hands on a Zynq SoC, beating the MicroZed. -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer; HRB 16746 AG Nürnberg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] 3.16.0 kernel / Cubietruck / Raspberry Pi
by Andreas Färber 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Hi, Thanks to help from Jean, Michal and Takashi I was able to fix the build of 3.16 kernels in Kernel:HEAD. I tested armv7hl kernel-default on the Cubietruck. It required INITRD_MODULES="ahci_sunxi" in /etc/sysconfig/kernel for my SATA based rootfs; like in early RCs there is no serial console output (both with packaged and latest u-boot-sunxi), but at some point ssh is possible. # boot.scr setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=btrfs rw rootwait ext2load mmc 0:1 0x46000000 boot/zImage ext2load mmc 0:1 0x49000000 boot/dtb/sun7i-a20-cubietruck.dtb ext2load mmc 0:1 0x4a000000 boot/initrd bootz 0x46000000 0x4a000000:0x${filesize} 0x49000000 kernel-lpae did not allow ssh, here's a quick SUNxI diff: $ diff -u /boot/config-3.16.0-5.g07174c1-default /boot/config-3.16.0-5.g07174c1-lpae | grep SUN.I CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI=y -CONFIG_MACH_SUN4I=y -CONFIG_MACH_SUN5I=y +# CONFIG_MACH_SUN4I is not set +# CONFIG_MACH_SUN5I is not set CONFIG_MACH_SUN6I=y CONFIG_MACH_SUN7I=y CONFIG_AHCI_SUNXI=m -CONFIG_SUN4I_EMAC=m +# CONFIG_SUN4I_EMAC is not set -CONFIG_DWMAC_SUNXI=y -CONFIG_MDIO_SUN4I=m +# CONFIG_MDIO_SUN4I is not set CONFIG_I2C_SUN6I_P2WI=m -CONFIG_SPI_SUN4I=m +# CONFIG_SPI_SUN4I is not set CONFIG_SPI_SUN6I=m CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUNXI=y CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUNXI_COMMON=y CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUN4I_A10=y CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUN6I_A31=y CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUN6I_A31_R=y CONFIG_PINCTRL_SUN7I_A20=y CONFIG_POWER_RESET_SUN6I=y CONFIG_SUNXI_WATCHDOG=m CONFIG_MMC_SUNXI=m -CONFIG_RTC_DRV_SUNXI=m +CONFIG_RTC_DRV_SUNXI=y CONFIG_SUN4I_TIMER=y CONFIG_SUN5I_HSTIMER=y CONFIG_PHY_SUN4I_USB=m DWMAC_SUNXI is the network driver needed, so I added it to the lpae config and will need to re-test. As for RTC_DRV_* we seem to be inconsistent - should they all be y or m? On the Raspberry Pi the armv6hl kernel-default boots to the login prompt, but USB and network do not seem to be working (regression from 3.15 Kernel:HEAD). The only obviously missing option seemed to be DMA_BCM2835 - will re-test once we have a new kernel with that. # boot.scr setenv bootargs 'console=ttyAMA0,115200 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p3 rootfstype=ext4 rw rootwait dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0' ext2load mmc 0:2 ${kernel_addr_r} zImage ext2load mmc 0:2 ${fdt_addr_r} dtb/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb ext2load mmc 0:2 ${ramdisk_addr_r} initrd bootz ${kernel_addr_r} ${ramdisk_addr_r}:0x${filesize} ${fdt_addr_r} As always, help with testing appreciated. Maybe 3.16.1 will help, too.

[opensuse-arm] compile andriod 4.4.3 on onpensuse failed.
by Huangwenhui 15 Aug '14

Hi, We evaluate the compiler performance on Hisi-D01 board with openSUSE. We get into trouble when compiling andriod4.4.3. I also failed to compile it on X86-64, I do not know how to get the dependent files and tools. Is there some documents or suggestions? Regards.

[opensuse-arm] Raspberry-Pi Version from Bernhard Wiedemann
by Edgar Dombrowski 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Hi, folks. Last week the Raspberry Pi-Magazine published an article of an Raspi-Version for OpenSuse. As I am an OS-fan since Issue 4.0 I installed the image successfully on a SD-Stick. The SD started and I accessed using "root/linux" As the Eth0-ip-nummber did not correspond to my home network I changed it using > config eth0 192.168.x.y. Pinging to the router was ok. However when I tried to get yast2 using the command < zypper install yast2 I got the error message > could not resolve host: download.opensuse.org. What is wrong?

I'm not in a position to help with applying the patches, but as a workaround I applied a config change to disable CONFIG_DRM_OMAP now. If would still be nice if the kernel maintainers could apply Matwey's previously posted patches and revert my workaround then.

[opensuse-arm] Kernel build broken
by Josua Mayer 04 Aug '14

04 Aug '14

Hi everyone, as you surely noticed, armv7l kernel builds are currently broken because of bad printf format in omapdrm code. I have seen that Matwey V. Kornilov tried to send a patch to LKML. Now, a fix has landed in linux-next: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/dri… It would be nice if this could be applied to the suse 3.16 kernel tree. kind regards Josua Mayer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org
