bpi m5 freezes

Hello,

 

BPi  M5  freezes after a couple of hours running  randomly.

- use armbian Armbian 23.02 Bullseye   ( 6.1.11)

- same effects with Armbian  Bookworm CLI   kernels 6.1.x  6.2.x

Now tried Sinovip Ubuntu  (kernel 4.9.x ) aud it is running for days ! form their Homepage

armbian from Sinovip page link  also  freezes...

 

 

 Why Armbian ( or Kernel 6.x ?) freezing . also found that USB power (for my data-USB-HDD) will be switched OFF  during boot mostly . 

tried uhiubctl with permanant switch ON .. ->  starts better - can ust USB-HDD in fstab ... but

System freezes (include:  USB no longer with power )

Is there any script to be change during boot or depends it to kernel ?  hidden powersave options ?

 

I want  use it for a 24/7  running System (nextcloud) - any ideas ?

 

g.l

Worth trying switching to < 6.0 kernel in armbian-config, alternative kernel. I am running Odroid HC4 in production, which is pretty much the same device without any issues with kernel 6.0.12

That is very different. Its kernel from chip vendor which we have dropped some time ago. It has other problems.

First we need to reproduce and then understands why it happens. You can try to set fixed cpu frequency or governor in armbian-config -> CPU to rule out this possible source of issues.

Can you provide a dmesg of the randomly freezing unit, when running on that kernel? Thanx.

 

EDIT: Not 6.0, as its not a good frame of reference with what may be happening on 6.1 and up.

Hello,

long time ago, but still same problem. Meanwhile new setup here (eMMC formatted) and run for 2 weeks raspian from bpi-website ( kernel 4.9) with usb-storage.

New setup   Armbian 23.05.1 Jammy with Linux 6.1.30-meson64   , new/other  USB-SATA adapter ... running uas driver.

 

the BPI M5 freezed/stopped (?) today early in the morning after less than 2 days uptime. (USB-power loss )

 

how to find out the reason ?

panfrost ffe40000.gpu: error -ENODEV: _opp_set_regulators: no regulator (mali) found

what does it mean ?

Hello,

it seemes I foud a "solution" - now using latest

 

Armbian_23.8.0-trunk.68_Bananapim5_bookworm_edge_6.4.2.img.xz

runs now for a cpuple of days.

lataest official releases Jammy  and bookwork releases ( kernel 6.1  ) never done - they stopped beween 24...36 hours ( only red LED = power ON , no activity, no access LAN/UART, no log entries...)

What is  different now  between 6.1.x and 6.4.x   kernels ?
