Bring up for Odroid N2 (Meson G12B)


Recommended Posts

Boot.ini? No thank you. I'll come back when a proper U-boot exists for this one, it is not worth the absolute cluster that will result when we can finally uodate

In boot.ini's defense its super easy to work with and the board is totally sweet.

But yeah should remain CSC until proper u-boot and mainline exist.

Yes, and until we can merge it into the correct board family. I believe it should be in meson64, not free standing, and we should warn everyone that the images available now will not survive the change.

Let me look it over, and 5.3 has N2 support, like the rest of our Amlogic stuff I see no reason to cause ourselves pain by dealing with vendor kernels/etc.  I may rename the current one Odroid-N2-Vendor or something if I can get mainline uboot + kernel under meson64.

I'm definitely in favor of switching u-boots.. 

 

As far as why we'd want to use Hardkernel's kernel repo... a TON of it works out of the box:

Thanks, i hope HK will thank you. And agree to take it.

I did not wait for the release of the official version of the image for SPI with full support for all options for custom startup (SD USB eMMC PXE). As a temporary solution I have gathered the image of "spiboot.img " to update SPI content with a new download option (which supports all described devices). Now, to enable all devices in the startup process (including the ability to directly start the system from USB media) does not require a UART console. All operations can be easily performed by a regular user using standard methods (which are well documented on the WIKI). The update procedure is described on the WIKI. File "spiboot.img" (with all options except Piteboot) can be downloaded here. Pay attention, this version is not Piteboot. During build there was an error with the build kernel, I did not fix  (I don't use Piteboot). If somebody need Piteboot, I recommend not using my version.

Right !

Hi

For the statistics, to make sure everything is working correctly, you can check the new SPIBOOT on your model N2 ?

woohoo i'll have to try i'm still using the hardkernel repo

 

does the new uboot use boot.ini? or standard ubootness

For SD no " boot.ini", N2 only (extlinux.conf) and u-boot-2019.  :)

 

 

https://github.com/150balbes/Build-Armbian/blob/master/packages/bsp/aml-g12/extlinux.conf

 

https://github.com/150balbes/Build-Armbian/blob/master/config/sources/aml-g12.conf#L2

 

For USB + new SPIboot (u-boot-2015) use boot.ini (with minimal configuration to run the main kernel). Prior to the SPI support in u-boot-2019, the optimal solution is to use SPIboot that runs any system with removable media and eMMC in any convenient and custom user order.

Same!  Life has been a bit tough lately, I've been supporting my wife through her recent surgery, she gets to come home this week (3rd week in hospital/rehabilitation)

New version of SPIboot 20191003.

Added support for running official Armbian images (although more correctly, you need to change the logic of creating an image in official images). :)

Fixed a bug with the kernel and now there is a full image for the SD card to update SPIboot.

Duplicate the information, it may be useful to other users.

 

 

 

 

 

Test version of the file "boot.ini"  for the official Armbian version (for use with SPIboot). Starting from SD card and USB media should work correctly.

 

https://yadi.sk/d/LjJNOP1m_2uwmQ

 

To use - download, rename to " boot.ini" and replace the file on the recorded media.

 

 

 

Added "set_order_boot file.ini " to quickly configure SPIboot in the desired order of scanning (starting) media. The script initially specified settings for the default option ( with such settings comes SPIboot initially). To change the order, you need to edit this script, rename it to " boot.ini", write to any medium and run N2 with it. The script will automatically change the desired settings and turn off the system.

Parameter "rawimage"  means eMMC

 

For example, you need to specify USB to start first. Change the line to this and run the script.

 

setenv boot_order "mmc rawimage usb pxe spi"

 

to

 

setenv boot_order "usb mmc rawimage pxe spi"

 

 

@Viald For "dua "  USB startup, you can specify.

 

setenv boot_order "usb usb mmc rawimage pxe spi"

 

 

By the way, to speed up the start of Piteboot, you can put the startup check from the network (PXE) at the end of the list (or completely remove it).

 

setenv boot_order "usb mmc rawimage spi pxe"

 

 

 

If desired, you can add your system startup option by adding a new startup option to the u-boot variables (new media, your network startup option, etc.) and add its usage to the list.

I have installed the Debian Buster minimal image of Armbian on the Odroid N2 but the board seems to lock or mostly freeze up when using SCP to it.  Transfers stall and there is no progress after about 30-45 seconds.  I think there is a kernel error but I'm not sure how to interpret DMESG output.  There seems to be continuous errors with zram0.  I have tried to search the forum for related posts but there do not seem to be ones that support fixing or resolving the issue.  

 

Kernel:

I have installed Armbian on the Odroid N2 but the board seems to lock or mostly freeze up when using SCP to it.  Transfers stall and there is no progress after about 30-45 seconds.  I think there is a kernel error but I'm not sure how to interpret DMESG output.  There seems to be continuous errors with zram0.  I have tried to search the forum for related posts but there do not seem to be ones that support fixing or resolving the issue. TDMESG output is below for reference: 


which image? which kernel?

Just a guess. Try : sudo apt install zram-config
Seems your zram isn't working well. Or sudo apt remove zram-config if you don't need it.
There's been many problems with zram/swap with the N2. 

 

I don't know what is using zram.  Is it just installed, enabled, or turned on by Armbian by default?

Sorry. For Debian it seems different. I only work on Bionic. 
Maybe try this. "Starting at buster (current testing) it's possible to simply install the zram-tools package and customize /etc/default/zramswap for your needs."
Armbian configures zram out of the box. But it's not always set right for all boards. So it can help manually installing it. Greetings.

It works well with Armbian while here with Odroid N2 there are some other kernel related troubles. Not just with ZRAM. We will release modern kernel, where this works as expected, soon.

Indeed. Swap and ZRam didn't work at all since a pretty messed kernel config. I had went into it when it was new.

You might recognize some things :) 
 

echo '9999' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj
echo '1' > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

This was the fix then to make it work. Was because of remainders of android, I checked the kernel and there's still a lot that doesn't belong there.  @Brad was the man who found the fix then. I do have it working well on Bionic.

In /sys/module there does not appear to be a lowmemorykiller directory.  Such a module also does not appear to exist in /lib/modules/4.9.190-odroidn2.  Is there another option?

Sirs, I am not sure what I need to do in order to fix the problems I seem to be experiencing with zram.  

 

If solution is cheap, like you imagine, it would already be solved. Like many other invisible problems which were solved and you didn't even notice.

 

Perhaps its not fixable without throwing a month of work on this? Will you cover? No. IIRC its a kernel problem and I am almost certain nobody will waste time to fix this feature in this (feature development) kernel ... I already tried and I will never try to debug again. 


... on current 5.4.y this feature works as expected but many others not. Wait for kernel 5.4.y / 5.5.y

Are there any reason @Igor why armbian use @balbes150 's repo for kernel?

for current and dev

As I hope that N2 or g12b has pretty nice support with mainline kernel and u-boot

armbian use mainline for g12b so what was the reason for this change.

 

I really like idea what armbian use for some other boards odroid c2 for example

mainline kernel + patch-set

When the change was made, more things were fixed in that kernel. Today it might be perhaps better to switch back and see what happens. No particular reason - in any case, mainline support is not "pretty nice", at least not with 5.4.y, but perhaps it will be emerged, MALI can be brought up, I saw that but this is little interest for me personally ...

We will get there soon. If you do something about, sooner.

 

@m][sko I will change to mainline + patches later today. I need help with testing and comparing this change to understand what is gone, what is solved.

 

I see at least this gone:

-CONFIG_SND_SOC_MESON_GX=m
-CONFIG_SND_SOC_MESON_GX_I2S=m
-CONFIG_SND_SOC_MESON_GX_SPDIF=m

Wasted 10+ h and I am not satisfied with the outcome - multimedia features are not working, something is still missing. But N2 seems stable - rebuilding images and enabling nightly images at master branch (5.5.>) https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/1748

multimedia like HDMI audio or video decoding or what?
