    hartraft reacted to Endian in Mainline kernel   
    I just found a very interesting talk by Sebastian Reichel who works with hardware enablement of the RK3588 at Collabora in this video between 06:52:09 to 07:27:07 which I can recommend for those interested in the Collabora project for Rockchip.  Now also available here https://kernel-recipes.org/en/2023/schedule/getting-the-rk3588-soc-supported-upstream/

    hartraft reacted to mrjpaxton in Does upgrading from Buster to Bullseye still break the system?   
    Okay, so I finally did it this Friday. I did the expose eMMC steps - https://wiki.kobol.io/helios64/install/emmc/
     
    (Somebody will probably have to mirror that link and the eMMC SD-Card exposure image if those instructions and files ever come Offline for good.)
     
    I'm also going to report that it all works just fine. I connected it with Picocom afterwards over USB-C with `picocom -b 1500000 /dev/ttyUSB0`, boots up fine, got a login prompt, did the Armbian initial setup stuff like setting up root password, a user password, which was different from last time I think, and then shell, etc...
     
    Now I'm in the long-haul process of meticulously restoring my config backups one by one from my old install, got SSH quickly set up again so I could disconnect the serial cable, double-checking them to make sure my static mounts will still work, my personal user scripts still run, and everything else still works without too many errors. I'm going to install more packages, set up Systemd's networking stack (networkd/resolved) the way I want, the Btrfs array, then NFS, and finally, maybe I'll even try to set up extras that I can't remember right now, like maybe disabling the ZRAM if it becomes a problem. Because usually the 4 GB of regular RAM is enough.
     
    So far, yes, everything is working great. I'll report back with any problems I run into.

    @mrjpaxton Dist-upgrade(ing) from bullseye to bookworm did finally complete successfully. However, one should consider that device names have changed (otherwise your system may end up offline 🙂) the new interface names are:
     
    # interface names (bookworm) sd: /dev/mmcblk0 emmc: /dev/mmcblk1 eth0: end0 (1GBase-T ethernet) eth1: end1 (2.5GBase-T ethernet)  
    P.S.: I am currently setting up bookworm from scratch starting from the fresh image to get rid of the stuff that accumulated during the last years.

    I finally have openZFS loading as a module with modprobe (still need to test that it's actually working correctly, but so far so good...)
    I'm using the Armbian Lunar CI rolling release since there is a working Linux-Header for this kernel
    https://imola.armbian.com/beta/pool/main/l/linux-headers-midstream-rockchip-rk3588/  
    After that, I essentially followed the instructions for building openZFS, but some minor changes to the META file for license and max kernel version.
     
    I want to say thank you to all the Armbian team members for making such an amazing platform for SBCs. All my boards run Armbian.
     
    here was the config command I used
    git clone https://github.com/openzfs/zfs cd ./zfs sh autogen.sh ./configure --with-config=user make -s -j$(nproc) sudo make install sudo ldconfig sudo depmod sudo modprobe zfs

    If you don't need the transcoding - the minidlna package could be a good alternative, low resource usage and the performance mostly will depend on your network and the reproduction device.
    Once HW transcoding makes it to the latest kernels, the other packages should behave much better - you're not the only one waiting for it.

    Thanks a lot, ended up that yesterday I tested kernel v5.18.0 on rk322x with the old version of the extra patch compiling the whole debian mesa packages ecosystem with success. The box was sporting just 1gb of ram, 512mb of zram swap space and 2gb of extra USB HDD swap file.
    The conditions were absolutely heavy and unhealthy, but the whole packages rebuilding from sources finally completed without errors, even after extreme swapping and hours of compilation time. The system was always responsive to SSH shells, which is a great achievement by itself!

    hartraft reacted to hexdump in MGLRU patches to bring down kswapd cpu usage   
    @hartraft - there are two kernel options for mglru: CONFIG_LRU_GEN=y and CONFIG_LRU_GEN_ENABLED=y - the first is to have mglru built into the kernel and the second is to have it enabled by default - if they are not in your kernel config it might be required to rebuild the kernel with them (or at least the first) enabled

    @hartraft Currently, I can assure you that the tinkerboard with armbian edge kernel (6.1) receives MGLRU compiled and enabled by default because I maintain the rk3288 (rockchip 32 bit) family.
    The other two boards are not under my maintenance so I can't say anything about, but you could check in the config sample file in your /boot directory to see if a kernel is compiled with the options pointed by @hexdump

    @ebin-dev @piter75
    I believe the upstream fix https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/regulator/core.c?id=8a866d527ac0441c0eb14a991fa11358b476b11d will do the job (in 6.1-rc1 so to be expected in Armbian edge if you want to try EMMC anew when it lands). This is likely the same issue as before the bad commit I pointed at the code only called set_machine_constraints once.  Still, requires testing (I saw that a lot of rk339 boards removed hs400 in Armbian, maybe that will fix them all).
     
    regulator: core: Resolve supply name earlier to prevent double-init Previously, an unresolved regulator supply reference upon calling regulator_register on an always-on or boot-on regulator caused set_machine_constraints to be called twice. This in turn may initialize the regulator twice, leading to voltage glitches that are timing-dependent. A simple, unrelated configuration change may be enough to hide this problem, only to be surfaced by chance. One such example is the SD-Card voltage regulator in a NanoPI R4S that would not initialize reliably unless the registration flow was just complex enough to allow the regulator to properly reset between calls. Fix this by re-arranging regulator_register, trying resolve the regulator's supply early enough that set_machine_constraints does not need to be called twice.

    Hi,
     
    I thought this forum did support on the Helios{4,64} regardless of the OS since Kobol is now closed.
    More, the issues I encounter testing the Armbian patches can be helpful for the future Armbian releases (I had the eMMC issues long time before many Armbian users were impacted with the Buster update).
    I did tried to apply the Armbian patches for kernel 5.15, but they fail because Helios4 and 64 are now mainlined.
     
    But not problem, I will try to fix it by myself, and report back the solution here. I have the skills to do it.
    BTW I have the same issue with vanilla kernel 5.15 and Helios4. I will test it first on the helios4 because it's not used anymore.
     
    Kind regards,

    Hi jotapesse, yes same for me ... but on closer inspection ... the flashing of the LAN activity light no longer seems
    to be tied to real network activity!
     
    1/ It flashes a lot less than it used to do.
    2/ If I download a large movie file from the Helios64 to my PC I occasionally see a brief flash, but not the sustained activity that
    I'd expect from a download that takes several minutes.
    3/ Inspecting my network router, I can see constant low level activity on the Helios64 ip address (I only have one ethernet cable attached to the Helios64)
    but don't see any flashing LED.
