boobypi

If data need to be recorded network boot with nfs will be needed but if it's just to run an small emmbedded project, it's possible to load rootfs in ramdisk and remove the sdcard in case you don't use a spi flash to boot. It's work fine for sure with openwrt but armbian is too big to fit in ram

Uboot Software is a bit deceiving for now, as example : they release an gmac driver but without phy driver and no clocks tree for gmac driver available. No documentation about clock tree configuration, internal PHY is really bad, no chip ref seriously, not well configured for aneg but using init configuration from an old amlogic phy driver (*1) is working a lot better (when you plug a cable you have a link, basicaly )...arm make new with old but they didn't tell it, just fuck. *1 https://github.com/codesnake/linux-amlogic-old/blob/master/drivers/amlogic/ethernet/phy/am_internal.c Fixing save env on emmc instead sdcard working No realease log to know what is working and what is will working maybe in next 5 years :/ sometimes i remember some taking about allwinner poor software support, i can say rockchip is same Without USB3 and better hw encoder/decoder h264, best Soc remain H3, if they can make an H3 with USB3, i will never buy another crap soc with crap sw release! But well this device can boot fine from emmc, (no check for the moment about used pins by sdcard socket) and it's can network boot with an old usb ethernet r8152 adapter well supported by uboot. make thing easier to test linux kernel and let closed enclosure!

Maybe it's just an issue with miniloader at 0x40 or the shity trust.img - this thing make a 4gb file to write 4MB and i don't understand how it's a feature (i can modify uboot without changing trust.img... :/ ) . On my RK3328 4GB device i wasn't able to boot with the ayufans uboot build script but i'm able to boot using ayufans uboot with rockchip build script. Maybe wrong timing for RAM?

In case of brick, there is 2 pad bottom emmc that can be shorted with a 10Ohm resistor or whatever near from you to put the box in maskrom mode (tested without problem). In maskrom mode you will need to load usb loader to do anything.

Hello, Just some word to know MX10 RK3328 can have an uboot legacy 4.4 working in emmc with the defaut rk3328-evb board config. I follow the guide [RK3328_Linux-Debian_V1.1_Development_Guide-20170711.pdf]. I suggest before trying anything to be sure you have an working usb loader for your BOX (usb loader from rkbin github don't work for example). You can find it in android update firmware image, unpack it with https://github.com/TeeFirefly/rk2918_tools.git And try on box in recovery mode : To remenber information about your emmc (in case it show 0MB capacity) Be carefull with the default parameter_gpt file, it's setup 512bytes page size and if you erase you emmc will show 0MB capacity so bad!) sudo ./rkdeveloptool rfi Flash Info: Manufacturer: SAMSUNG, value=00 Flash Size: 29820 MB Block Size: 512 KB Page Size: 2 KB ECC Bits: 0 Access Time: 40 Flash CS: Flash<0> sudo ./rkdeveloptool rd 3 //reboot device in maskrom mode sudo ./rkdeveloptool db RK3328MiniLoaderAll_MX10.bin (extracted from MX10 firmware) Downloading bootloader succeeded. Now you are sure to be able to debrick the box if thing go wrong :) parameter_gpt.txt used FIRMWARE_VER: 6.0.0 MACHINE_MODEL: RK3328 MACHINE_ID: 007 MANUFACTURER: RK3328 MAGIC: 0x5041524B ATAG: 0x00200800 MACHINE: 3328 CHECK_MASK: 0x80 PWR_HLD: 0,0,A,0,1 #KERNEL_IMG: 0x00280000 #FDT_NAME: rk-kernel.dtb #RECOVER_KEY: 1,1,0,20,0 #in section; per section 2048(0x800) bytes <<===== BE CAREFULL with PAGE SIZE BEFORE ERASE CMDLINE: mtdparts=rk29xxnand:0x00001f40@0x00000040(loader1),0x00000080@0x00001f80(reserved1),0x00002000@0x00002000(reserved2),0x00002000@0x00004000(loader2),0x00002000@0x00006000(atf),0x00038000@0x00008000(boot:bootable),-@0x0040000(rootfs) RK3328MiniLoaderAll.bin

Or put an unused gpio pin for kernel start and drive PL12 manualy as gpio after startup to turn on usb device. Interresting for power saving

Here http://112.124.9.243/uftp/linux-4.4.y-g3739ddc.tar.xz After read some comments at http://free-electrons.com/blog/mali-opengl-support-on-allwinner-platforms-with-mainline-linux/, mali400 have different implementation (nexell mali 400 != allwinner mali 400)

Maybe i tell bullshit but i saw a kernel4.4 driver for mali400 released with NanoPi Fire2A & Fire3 Boards.

Do you know your link with comment reference isn't working in firefox? I have to check the share button to see proposed url and find the tutorial Maybe it's more simple to make an pdf or a quote like this :

Well u are right, i misreading first page, sorrye Plz share a link to the tutorial, i don't find it

Hello Just to understand a little bit can we use the binary libmali with lastest kernel with patch (Myy) or it 's necessary to start from 4.4 kernel and port mainline patches to 4.4 kernel? I buy an rk3328 device only because it's seem there is an kernel - not prehistoric - with gpu available but after some read i find documentation poor and community less active (in number) than sunxi linux team. I hope to be able to compile QT5 webkit with gpu mesa dependancy but maybe it's very early to dream about it A link to Myy tutorial (RK3288) if already exist need to be under light ^^ Tks for what is sharing here

The only good reason in my opinion is for usb protocol reverse engineering with a low cost usb packet analyser (usb 12mbit).

Hi mdel, I ask if the weird "sdmmc0m1-pwren" instead SDMMC0_DET isn't the power enable pin for wlan-bluetooth module

Maybe you can check a big file copy from sdcard to android emmc to see speed throughtput and maybe confirming sdcard socket is spi wired (lower speed than real sdmmc controller)
