Well, the specs of rock64 looks good, until you use it to do some actual work... It even can't survive make -j 4 for aria2

out of 300 boards, I have about 25 % garbage that doesn't support any kind of heavy workload

Not that bad :rolleyes: considering there is little if any professional and automated QA over this hardware. BTW. We plan to setup some small QA department/service in about a year. If there will be backing from users. Solo with our resources it will take years. And still this will not solve bugs, just assist. Assist us to waste less time.

Depends. Here we have at least three hardware revisions plus SoC/components quality tolerance ... its very hard to mask with software, especially if its mainly amateur based and we don't even have all versions, enough pcs and enough time to deal with.

Always hard to mask HW w/SW, but that's always been true - and sometimes it's upstream at a chip level errata.

Don't sell the community here short - there are plenty of active contributors here that have specific skills, and some do this kind of work in their day jobs - but it is a valid point that it's unpaid, volunteer time, and resources are never enough.

The fact that Armbian is on the radar as a serious distro is a good sign of the quality of the community.

I am quite upset. Reading around more it looks like the FORESEE emmc cards sold on the rock64 shop are utter crap. The only reason I bought them from their shop because I trusted them to deliver good quality components with the board. Teaches me right.
I contacted support about the card, they waived me off with "you only have 30 days guarantee, but anyways you should limit the number of writes to the card as otherwise you can kill it within a week". Thanks for that.

I've read around a bit more and my last hope is a few more tweaks before I give up and just buy a raspberry pi.

1. Lower the emmc clock frequency to 150MHz from 200MHz as it seems many cards/boards cannot take the higher frequency. You do this through "echo 150000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/clock". See here https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=5258&pid=39964#pid39964
2. As many problems seem to be around usb3 people suggest to disable the uas driver. See here https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=5137&pid=32107#pid32107
3. Mount whatever I can on a tmpfs and other options, see here for tips https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/169/how-can-i-extend-the-life-of-my-sd-card
4. Try and use the HDD on the usb2 port and get a usb power splitter

After this I'm out of ideas.

If it's any consolation...

I have 7 Rock64 v2. 3x emmc, 3x USB2 SSD, 1x sd card. All from pine store.

Bought and wired up 30A 5v DC power supply but haven't tested.

One of the emmc is dead.

One of the boards crash loops no matter what drive.

None of them run usb3 reliably.

Archlinux was newest most reliable kernel around 4.19 or 20. Haven't been able to get above 4.4 otherwise and wanted to use Ubuntu for home cluster so Arch out. Plus wanted over 4.9 for Linux network functionality.

Put a bit of money into this setup. Naive. RPI not enough memory and new ones expensive.

Given up and gone back to amd64 VM's.

True. Larger developers community is the reason we are getting somewhere in the first place. I am aware of that. Also groups around projects helps to achieve more and less work is doubled, tripled ... but relationship between creators/contributors and average users, "I am new to Linux", support is rather extreme even without dealing with Raspberry Pi herd.

User: I am (also) reporting that functionality X is broken. (they have no idea that this "small bug" might represent a project worth months of work)

Two days later.

User: Hey, have you fixed this?

If "user" would be my paying customer we would terminate the contract right away. Sadly I am seeing such daily and that's why I am upset. How to deal with this and how to do it less personal way? Just ignore?

Hmm... actually yes - is the role of Armbian to teach users about Linux? Probably not, IMHO, they're better served by the Pi Folks - Raspbian is good training wheels for folks dipping their toes into Linux

The average Armbian user is not a paying customer - there are no Service Level Agreements dictating that any bug of a defined severity level must be fixed within a specific timeframe.

So yes - just ignore it for the most part, step in if is sounds fairly interesting - sounds a bit mean spirited perhaps, but generally folks will step in to help out, and if it's really a bug that is directly traceable back to Armbian code - then if it pops up enough, fix it directly, or delegate it to someone who is maintaining it (better to delegate, as that person knows the code likely better).

So if someone has problematic hardware - "my whoflungpI Zero2W with the built in XYZ WiFi adapter doesn't work" - well, it might be crap hardware, and in the sub-$50USD field of hacker boards and TV boxes, there's a fair amount of crap - can't fix bad hardware, and there, someone will tell them, use something that does work.

1. Lower the emmc clock frequency to 150MHz - done
2. Disable the uas USB3 driver - [ 4.115966] usb 2-1: UAS is blacklisted for this device, using usb-storage instead
3. Mount whatever I can on a tmpfs and other options - / as RO and overlayfs filesystems for /home, /root, and /var
4. Try and use the HDD on the usb2 port and get a usb power splitter - not done yet

After this I'm out of ideas.

So, I'm out of ideas now. I have done all of the above, in-fact mounted the whole filesystem (eg. /root) as RO so definitely there are no writes happening on the EMMC card (double checking with iostat -dzp 1). And _still_ the board crashes! This is debian Buster with Armbian 5.98 Linux 4.4.192-rockchip64.

Nice little stack trace above. The machine stayed up but something was hogging the CPU so much it was unusable and I had to reboot. I've moved the HDD to the USB2 port and I just had a crazy kernel panic and the board rebooted by itself.

I did get _one_ step further. Remember when I said the board was stable previously? It was with the sd-card in it, not the emmc. It also seems that the board is more stable with the serial cable plugged in.

I will double check, but it would seem that even in RO mode running the OS off of the EMMC is batshit unstable. Anyone experienced this and might have ideas to resolve it?

Rock68 · November 18, 2019

Hello, I've the Rock64 4G v2.0 - 2017-0713. I tried to install different OS but I get similar errors and problems as yours. The SBC stuck after a while or lost the connection after high I/O traffic with my SSD on the USB3.

If It can help you, I describe here how I could installed a clean Armbian on my rock64:

- Download u-boot-flash-spi-rock64.img.xz from here and use Etcher to write to a new micro SD card; I used SanDisk Ultra 16GB microSDHC, Class 10.

- Download OS image “Armbian 5.69 Ubuntu Bionic default, Kernel 4.4.167” from the archive here and use Etcher to write to the SSD.

- I both a new power supply because I get some under voltage errors. But I still have to measure the differences. I've got this by amazon.

- Insert the SD card into Rock64 and boot it. It will automatically flash the SPI memory. Wait until the white LED on Rock64 blink once per second. Wait for some more time just to ensure the writing is done and then remove the SD card and power off the board.

- Connect network cable to Rock64 and attach the SSD to USB 3.0 port and then boot Rock64. Log in only with HDMI monitor and Keyboard and change the pw and user name.

- Connect the SSD to another linux and check and repair the partition (job 1) and extend it till the end (job 2).

- Re-connect the SSD and go to armbian-config and then freeze the Kernel and File System. Check desmeg results. Try also to connect with ssh.

I get now a clean and stable board and I´m happy after many month trials. If I can help someone would be nice. Let me know.

Tamás Faragó · November 18, 2019

Hey, thanks! That is useful! I will try 5.69, maybe it is more useful and I don't have to do the below.

I have not been idle and did a lot of experimentation as well. With 5.98 at least the only thing that consistentlyDpkg::Use-Pty=0 helped is to underclock the CPU to 1.2GHz. It is pretty much stable even during heavy IO using the uas driver.

@rock68 could you check your cpu, memory speeds and clock frequency for me as well as run a cpu test?

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/clock

sudo cat /sys/class/devfreq/dmc/cur_freq

sudo cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

sudo stress-ng --cpu 4 --cpu-method matrixprod --metrics-brief --perf -t 600

The last command will run for 10 minutes, you can see CPU load and current speed (if you are using dynamic CPU scaling with the ondemand scheduler for example) with "htop".

I have yet to try two more things:

1. Run CPU stress test at full speed when OS is on the sdcard

2. Reduce the memory speed. I've read that it should be 666MHz but it's actually running at 786MHz. Anyone know how to do this without writing a new std file? Seems armbian image only has a single speed available.

Note, an easy way to get your system to boot from SD card if the emmc is inserted without the jumper short-circuiting thingie is to press escape at the very start of the boot so it stops and you are on the uboot console; then type "mmc erase 0 1000". This will clear the boot details on the emmc basically forcing boot to continue from the sd card. The mmc will be available now to the system to do as you wish.

Interesting, maybe Ubuntu is doing something else?

Can you try "sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/ios" ?

You need to install stress-ng, eg. "apt install stress-ng". Thanks!

balbes150 · November 19, 2019

It would be interesting to try the new kernel 5.x . If the hardware that is responsible for the work of eMMC is all right and the device works stably from the SD card, then the problem is in the settings for eMMC and need to check the settings of DTB to work with eMMC or u-boot.

P.S. I don't have Rock64, so all of the above is just a guess. On TV boxes with rk3328 and the built-in eMMC at me everything works without problems from eMMC.

I tried 5.x before but it wouldn't recognise the USB3 port so I quickly have up. Might give it another shot! Although I'm a bit lost in the DTB world and wouldn't have a clue what to change.

After 2 boot crash restarts my Rock64 4GB rev2 on Micro SD has come up on 5.3.11 kernel.

rock64:~$ uname -a
Linux rock64 5.3.11-rockchip64 #19.11.3 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 18 21:03:09 CET 2019 aarch64 GNU/Linux

It looks like the first two times `pstate: 60000085` then on the 3rd time: `pstate: 20000005`.
3rd time still has stack trace related to zstd but otherwise makes it through.

I have USB SATA-SSD (Pine store), eMMC (pine store) cards and another 6 Rock64's if there is anything I can do/provide.
I'm tempted to try load up Kubernetes on them all with this image and see how stable it is.

Okay, it lasted about 5 minutes. Has a Pine store heatsink. Failed during apt upgrade (download fast 1Gbps) but nothing after that.
Have switched to a 30A 5V supply running 5V (multimeter) just in case the Pine store PSU is too weak but haven't been able to get it to boot again.

ArchlinuxARM has come up on first boot with 5.3.1 and crashed after a few minutes.

Same here, after updating to the 5.3.11 kernel my Rock64 4GB rev2 doesn't come up from the SD.

I have a USB SATA-SSD, but no HDMI attached.

The 4.4 kernel works perfectly fine, so I reverted back to that one.

I guess we'll have to wait some time for the current branch to become fully stable.

sugatam · December 8, 2019

I have a 4G Rev 2 Rock64 that is running like a champ on current - 5.4.2 as of this writing, as far as USB and Ethernet are concerned. I did have to blacklist UAS for all my USB drives, and now the board is rock solid even with heavy disk and network IO.

I do have one problem though, I have no sound. I have the following loaded (automatically):

root@chdock:/home/sugata# cat /proc/modules |grep snd
snd_soc_rk3328 16384 0 - Live 0xffff800008dc9000

And yet, I get this:

root@chdock:/home/sugata# aplay -l
aplay: device_list:272: no soundcards found...

I searched around this forum and nothing obvious came up. Any ideas?

I'm new to armbian so hi to all. I recently bought a sealed Rock64 v2 off ebay with psu and sdcard for low cost. It works ok but has lots of same issues like others have. I'm just adding my 2 cents in here so another user is heard in the thread.

Armbian Bionic w/4.4 minimal works well. Anything else newer does not boot. I dont have serial cable so that's all I can report for now. Compiles well too.

Arch and Manjaro stock images work well (5.5.1) but they segfault when compiling anything. Still looking for an image for v2 that compiles and is 5.2 or newer.

Finally got a serial board so theres the output. Hope this helps to fix my V2 rock64 on new images. This is for latest standard buster server RC image.

Not syncing is usually it cant find the right partition to complete the boot.

Have you tried the upstream kernel or are you using the vendor 4.4.something? Sorry if the question's been answered before

Maybe get more details by setting "verbose=7" in /boot/armbianEnv.txt ...

This seems to show that filesystem is probably corrupted ...

EDIT: Since you wrote :

This means you are trying several SDCards, but is the eMMC on the Rock64 still active ? Because eMMC has boot priority over SDCard.

You should then place a jumper on 2 pins header or disconnect the eMMC module from the board ...

JMCC · February 15, 2020

Notice that in my Renegade was dong something very similar (corrupting fs as soon as it booted), and it turned out to be some problem with not enough current on the SD card reader. @TonyMac32 released a fix that solved it by increasing the current in the DT, but after some upgrades the problem reappeared. Strange enough, it worked with the same DT but Firefly's kernel. I guess it had to be some kernel config missing in our kernel, but I haven't checked it in a while.

TonyMac32 · February 15, 2020

Also note that Rock64 has a SPI flash that takes precedence over ALL other boot devices. My Rock64's have no contents in these flashes for exactly this reason, so I can faithfully test our U-boot's. I would have to ask the boilerplate "SD/power supply problems questions:

Which Kernel (Current, Dev, Legacy)

I know in this case it is a rev 2 Rock64

What SD card brand/version. My cards were immune to the voltage switching issues caused by the Codec pin mapping bug, so my testing of that correction may not be thorough enough to catch if there's still an issue

The interaction of 3rd party U-boot configurations and Armbian really can't be tracked down meaningfully, so that SPI boot is something to look out for if it has been flashed. Our DT overlays/etc are all handled at boot by u-boot. (general info, not necessarily a specific issue here)

I'm using a sandisk Ultra 16GB sd card. Never used emmc yet. Originally flashed and used spi usb boot w/o any probs. I flashed it back to empty in the testing im doing last 4-5 days. I'll leave spi alone and empty for now. Martin: I tried a jumper on emmc pins by the lights. Didn't help. May be that my timing isnt right ...boot with jumper stop the boot with a keystroke, remove jumper, hit a key and continue booting.

Since lanefu's new v2 booted and tonys then the sdcards are more robust than this sandisk ultra? It's a brand name top card so that baffles me but could be the problem. Thats surely not the solution though. What kernel? the kernel in the current image dated 1-26-2020 plus I tried a build from lanefu that has 5.4.20 with latest patches. I read in a thread that the boot order is spi>emmc>sd. It used to be spi>sd>emmc and that change has caused lots of probs for pine products. Sounds to me like its about that order and the voltages being used and how that ruins the sdcard's chance of booting due to corruption. Plus using really old configs from ayufan from 2 yrs ago (no matter how updated) when the board was released is imo not right. I've enjoyed the hunt for this problem but i'm getting tired since the fix isnt some simple file edit or switch to a different image a plain user can do. I've done and reported what I resonably can.
