Did just a quick look at 4.19 but did not come very far... I leave it that way as well and wait for @Igor to push sunxi64 to 4.19. Thank you anyways.

@martinayotte Did you find a solution for the unbootable OPi 1+ yet?

Known issue. Reboot stops the board.

Fun fact: The kernel did not freeze. When you remove the sd card you still receive output from the console, also when you re-insert it.

This answers the question if OPi One Plus is affected only I guess

This basically changed the kernel source from Icenowy sources to mainline. For me this results in an unbootable image. No clue if this affects Lite2 too or OPi One Plus only.

The build script will automatically update and pull the changes from github before the menu comes up. Simply run ./compile.sh Edit: Nope....mainline kernel is still an issue U-Boot SPL 2018.09-rc1-armbian (Sep 28 2018 - 18:39:47 +0200) DRAM: 1024 MiB Trying to boot from MMC1 NOTICE: BL31: v1.5(debug):5069c1c NOTICE: BL31: Built : 14:47:15, Sep 9 2018 NOTICE: BL31: Detected Allwinner H6 SoC (1728) INFO: ARM GICv2 driver initialized NOTICE: PMIC: Probing AXP805 NOTICE: PMIC: AXP805 detected INFO: BL31: Platform setup done INFO: BL31: Initializing runtime services INFO: BL31: cortex_a53: CPU workaround for 855873 was applied INFO: BL31: Preparing for EL3 exit to normal world INFO: Entry point address = 0x4a000000 INFO: SPSR = 0x3c9 U-Boot 2018.09-rc1-armbian (Sep 28 2018 - 18:39:47 +0200) Allwinner Technology CPU: Allwinner H6 (SUN50I) Model: OrangePi One Plus DRAM: 1 GiB MMC: SUNXI SD/MMC: 0 Loading Environment from FAT...

Will test this against the OPi One Plus. From earlier nightlies we know that 4.18.x has some issues. 4.18.0-rc7 from Icenowy works though. Lets see what happens. As far for now build did not fail at ATF. That's a good sign.

https://github.com/armbian/build/issues/1104 Reverting the change from this commit fixed this for me: https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/cbcdf570f38498e567f84b1abe71edcb4bc3458f

The kernel is the same, just the OS on top is different.

swappiness=0 http://ix.io/1nDr swappiness=1 http://ix.io/1nDw swappiness=60 http://ix.io/1nDC Reboot between test 2 and 3 to clear memory and skip cooldown for the loadavg

I am ready to give it a shot whenever you are ready

Sure thing. I'll catch up later.

I did the benchmarking two more times with some non-essential services disabled to minimize impact, but no better results. No idea what the io wait is causing. No cooling this time. http://ix.io/1nwh The 2nd one with swap disabled as I noticed swap was used after the first run, so I disabled it: http://ix.io/1nwo ... not a good idea. I give up for now, last but not least because with the PineH64's results we know the results for the OPi One Plus as well...if it would rund flawless ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Unbootable kernel with OPi One Plus confirmed, runs into panic, reading from UART. There is something wrong with the later 4.18.x kernel. 4.18.0-rc7 from @Icenowy sources working well. But this kind a runs off topic I guess
