CaWeissWz Posted Wednesday at 12:14 PM Posted Wednesday at 12:14 PM My Radxa Rock 4SE does not boot since community-build 25.8.0-trunk.228. Current local builds based on the "main" branch are also affected. The bootloader log gives the following error: Checking hash(es) for config config-1 ... OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-1 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image u-boot ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image fdt-1 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-2 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-3 ... sha256+ OK ERROR: not expected type found -4001165690437497392 This source suggests, that it might be a problem with the ATF. However, my knowledge about details of the boot process are unforunately not sufficient to find a solution to this problem. How to reproduce?

laibsch Posted yesterday at 06:02 AM Posted yesterday at 06:02 AM Thank you for reporting about this issue. What is the latest image that still works? Is it still available for you to download? Maybe this is the change you want to revert and see if that brings things back in line? But supposedly, that commit was boot-tested by Niklas. Your board does not have an official maintainer in armbian, so I suggest you contact Niklas to find out what the situation is for him. 0 Quote
CaWeissWz Posted yesterday at 08:07 AM Author Posted yesterday at 08:07 AM The last working image is 25.5.0-trunk.256, which is still available for download. I will try to look into the situation as my time allows. Thanks for the hint where to start. 0 Quote
laibsch Posted yesterday at 09:41 AM Posted yesterday at 09:41 AM Do you know how to compile your own images? Do you know how to use "git bisect"? 0 Quote
CaWeissWz Posted 9 hours ago Author Posted 9 hours ago Yes, I know how to compile images. I'm still learning how to use git efficiently, though. Git bisect, I had never heard of before; but from what I read, is seems to be the right tool to find the breaking commit. But before I start into this possibly lengthy process, I came up with one theory, that I intend to check first: The initial assumption was, that the error is due to an API incompatibility in the Arm Trusted Firmware. My first intention was, to check if a newer version of the ATF was available, I just didn't know for wich part exactly I should look. Now I found out, that the working Image starts the "BL31"-thing right at the point where the current images fail: Zitat Trying to boot from MMC1 ## Checking hash(es) for config config-1 ... OK ## Checking hash(es) for Image atf-1 ... sha256+ OK ## Checking hash(es) for Image u-boot ... sha256+ OK ## Checking hash(es) for Image fdt-1 ... sha256+ OK ## Checking hash(es) for Image atf-2 ... sha256+ OK ## Checking hash(es) for Image atf-3 ... sha256+ OK NOTICE: BL31: v1.3(release):8f40012ab NOTICE: BL31: Built : 14:20:53, Feb 16 2023 NOTICE: BL31: Rockchip release version: v1.1 So, the first thing for me to check will be which version of "BL31" is used for the current images and if a newer version would be available and could be used instead. Unfortunately, i might not be able to work on this until next week. But I will report back as soon as there is new information., 1 Quote
