It seems Panfrost driver was loaded, but the GPU doesn't produce any interrupts:

I tried build and install the latest version of `mesa`, which just not work. And `glxinfo -B` still shows that GPU is a virtual GPU.

I am wondering if I can use the GPU on kernel 6.x, because I found that the case in this forum that can enable GPU for rk3399 all use the legacy version kernel, like 4.X. By the way, I am using the kernel from https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian.

Anyone can give me some tips or interpretation? Thanks in advanced!!!!

If you are using an ophub kernel you are not using Armbian. These forums are for Armbian ophub is a fork of Armbian. They use the Armbian name without permission. They do not contribute to Armbian development nor do they participate in these forums. You need to direct your question to their forums/support channels.

I've started with this, but the logs provided are created with this system:

Info-Center-NanoPC-T4.png.dc2d8d2590ebeb9078bb8c673f8e5a5a.png

However, the system used is not really important, the Mali support has been very mature in mainline for a long time, so any correspondingly built system should be usable.

I have built a unofficial version armbian myself from mainline, but the ‘glxinfo -B’ still shows llvmpipe as GPU device.

Have you made sure that all BuildRequires have been properly fulfilled and that the build configuration options have been selected correctly?
Especially hardware-related ones.

Hi, It seems that this file you mentioned is the latest version of mesa. Did you mean that I need to build the latest version of mesa from source code?

build configuration options

Does this mean the configuration in kernel? GPU staffs, like panfrost, drm etc., are already enable in the kernel compile configuration.😂😂

I already tried to enable `BUILD_DESKTOP=yes`, and try to reinstall again. Thanks for your information!!!!

Hi, can you share all the requirements that are required for making the GPU work? I want to check it one by one.

I rebuilt the mesa of `24.0.7` and install it to my /usr directory, and here is the result.

1. output of clinfo:

: CommandLine Error: Option 'polly' registered more than once!
LLVM ERROR: inconsistency in registered CommandLine options

2. output of glxinfo -B

ninja -C builddir/ -j6

ninja -C builddir/ install

I believe that I have screwed the system. Now I need to reinstall the system.......😂

Hand Rawing · May 16

update:

trying to adjust the config of meson to make GPU work. Here is the command I use now.

meson setup --reconfigure builddir/ \
  -Dprefix=/usr/local/mesa \
  -Dplatforms=x11 \
  -Degl-native-platform=drm \

No, it's just the spec with which my currently running mesa is built. Already the mesa version with which I started had all the necessary, essential functions. Of course, all bug fixes and improvements that have been incorporated in the meantime are not included there.

14 hours ago, Hand Rawing said:

No, there is not much to see in terms of kernel. As long as the Panfrost driver is built and the Mali GPU is properly wired-up in DT, there is nothing to do.
It's about the user space counterpart mesa. It is the component that make use of the GPU the kernel exposes.

14 hours ago, Hand Rawing said:

If you want to check all dependencies, you have to look at all spec files that are pulled by Requires from the mesa package. For me, however, this is done by the package manager during installation. And to build mesa, I install all BuildRequires with:

dnf builddep mesa.spec

But building Mesa yourself has long since ceased to be necessary, as no modifications are necessary and the standard package works out-of-the-box.

Your build configuration options are looking incomplete.

Here's an excerpt from the build.log resulting from the spec file:

Bro, I want to give up now. I have checked in the documentation of Debian. All the requirements that GPU works normally have been fulfilled, I have no idea why GPU still does not work.

Based on this, you are not using Armbian. You are using a fork of Armbian. The maintainers of this fork use the Armbian name without permission. They do not participate in Armbian development, nor do they participate in these forums. Either use Armbian (Armbian com), or get support for what you are using from where you downloaded it from.

Hi, I don't know that at first. Now I built Armbian from the official repo and installed it to my board. Thanks anyway!

@usual userHi, I solved this problem. As you said before, the GPU is out of box for using. But I just test `glxinfo -B` using `Xvfb`, which is a virtual desktop, so it always shows `llvmpipe`. Now I try to use xrdp after searching in our forum. Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
