Hi,

Like previous years, the Amadeo restaurant is booked on Sat 3 Feb at
8PM for the Allwinner/Sunxi dinner:

Let me know (by private or public email) if you want to reserve a
seat, there are 26 available (and maybe more, as Tim from Pine64
booked another table with 10 more).

So feel free to invite more outsiders, the more the better :-)

[linux-sunxi] Arduino as USB-serial adaptor

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

Just commented on the wiki page about using an Arduino as a USB-serial
adaptor, that the main chip (atmega328p for ex) can be disabled by
wiring RESET to GND, no need to remove it. Recent arduinos are
soldered on board as well, so they cannot be easily removed.

A third alternative is to apply this arduino sketch to tell the atmega
chip to do not interfere with the TX and RX pins:

https://gist.github.com/wmhilton/6034455
http://web.archive.org/web/20101027200300/http://students.sabanciuniv.edu/kehribar/?p=19

See also my page:

http://www.zoobab.com/use-the-arduino-as-a-serial-adaptor

Arduino is mostly 5V, so as the USB-serial chip in front, so I was
wondering if those chips were sending 5V in TX if that could damage
the sunxi SOC.

Any idea if the sunxi chips are 5V tolerant in RX?

Best,

[linux-sunxi] Thanks for the diner

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

Thank you all for coming to the diner, and for some of you joining the
party at HSBXL afterwards, was fun.

I want to thank Pine64 for sponsoring the final bill as well :-)

I had the pleasure to meet Andre, where we discussed the new linux
gpio in 4.8, and how we could have many more programs using it instead
of "RaspberryPi specific code".

We also had a small demo of the Pine64 laptop (quite impressive for
the price, even thought I would love to see a screen with a higher
resolution in 1080p 1920x).

And see you next year (Olimex, you know what to do :-) !

[linux-sunxi] sunxi workshop 2 days pre-fosdem

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

I am looking to book the HSBXL hackerspace 2 days to make some
pre-fosdem workshop, would people here be interested to replace the
yearly dinner with something more hands-on?

We did one workshop years ago at urlab, but that was definitely a bit smallish.

Let me know what you think.

Best,

[linux-sunxi] PineA64 TFTP boot?

[Benjamin Henrion]

Dear Simon,

I am writing to you because I donated a pine64 board to Kernelci.org project.

And one of the requirement to be on their list is TFTP boot in uboot.
I tried to netboot with an external ASIX USB dongle, but I could not
make it work, although it seems to be supported by uboot.

Do you know your uboot would support that feature?

[linux-sunxi] KH mentions Allwinner GPL

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

Greg KH mentioned Allwinner as GPL problematic:

https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/ksummit-discuss/2016-August/003643.html

"Someone in a reddit thread about this email conversation said, in trying
to quote Linus, something along the lines of "the nuclear option should
have been done to Allwinner a long time ago".  And that proved my point
exactly.  Allwinner was a pain for a very long time.  But as developers,
and through the efforts of a lot of people at the Linux Foundation and
Linaro, Allwinner is now a contributor to the kernel, and actively
sponsors developers to write GPLv2 code for their chips.  So, if, after
talks like yours (between a representative of a kernel copyright holder
and the company) breaks down, you would be forced to take legal action.
And then we lost, even if you would have "won" the suit."

[...]

"Again, learn from history, suing people is not the way to survive.
Working with the developers is the way.  As companies like Intel (who
used to be one of the worse offenders of the GPL out there before
members of our community worked very hard to turn them around) and
Allwinner and RockChip (getting more and more involved in our community)
and even Microsoft (who now gets huge revenue from running Linux and is
sponsoring kernel development because of this)"

Can you try if that works:

echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger

That's the hardcore version of "reboot" which does wait any process to
nicely terminate, including filesystems.

Hi Benjamin,
I can confirm the old Banana Pi has the design problem in the USB power
circuit. It do not have the fuse to protect in case we get too much power
from the board or power the usb from the usb hub.
On Banana Pro we add an auto-recovery fuse to protect the board.

Typically, each USB port only provide 500mA current, we should not consumer
too higher than 500mA from every USB port. The total is 2 x 500mA.

I think you can contact the supplier for the refund if it in the 1st year.

Subject:  Bananapi dead by just adding USB dongles: request for a refund

Hi,

I have bought a Bananapi v1 (the one with the yellow s-video
connector) which I was very happy with till yesterday.

I added a USB hub with 4 Huawei 3G dongles on there, and that fried the
device.

I have told this to many people around, and they all agree that this
is a bad electrical design.

Questions:

1. Is there a way to have an acknowlegement from your side that it is
a design mistake?
2. What is the power limitation is mA for this particular device?
3. Have you made changes in the power supply circuits for more recent
boards?
4. Can I claim a refund?

Best regards,

[linux-sunxi] Bananapi fried

Hi,

I just fried my bananapi by putting USB dongles on there:

This is ridiculous, how to fry your board just by adding USB devices to it.

Hi,

Just received my CHIP, I have made a small serial log, interesting
that the device appears as a USB serial port over /dev/ttyACM0 once
you plug it in your laptop:

Here is a picture of the setup:

http://pic.twitter.com/2RvI8cjCkD

I had to mod the cp2102 dongle to have 2 gnd pins instead of one, I had to
cut the trace of the RTS pin, and solder it with its neighbour gnd pin.

The DTR pin is enough to control the relay, which is intercepting the red
wire from the USB cable.

I put some basic code to toggle the DTR pin here:

https://github.com/zoobab/toggledtr

Right now it does a while loop, I will have to modify it a bit to get/set
the DTR pin.

During my tests, I only noticed that some programs such as minicom tends to
set the DTR when they are launched, which is interfering with the purpose
of this setup.

Also, I noticed that the TX pin of the bananapi was still leaking enough
current to keep the board on, and to prevent proper power cycling.
Apparently, Kevin from kernelci had the same issue with some boards, and
solved the problem by adding a small resistor in between.

[linux-sunxi] TFTP uboot via usb-ethernet Asix?

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

I am trying to compile an uboot with support for a USB-eth adaptor
(based on an Asix chip):

http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/how-tos-and-troubleshooting/network-based-development
https://github.com/lentinj/u-boot/blob/master/doc/README.usb

Does someone has experience with that?

I am not successful yet, I think I am hinting one unsupported model
(see TODO(dianders): This didn't work for me.). I have another adaptor
which has different VID/PID, will try it later on this week.

I am trying out on an A13 Olimex that does not have ethernet, but if
that works that could solve the TFTP boot problem, and I could send a
board to kernelci.org so that there is an A13 in the list. That could
also be useful for H3 and the Pine64 board they have just received, as
long as the ethernet is not supported by uboot.

The code seems to be there since 2011, but I don't see any trace of
this feature in the make menuconfig of uboot.

Best,

It boots as well on the Orangepi One.

Any idea who is working on the ethernet support in mainline?

A friend of mine offered his help at last FOSDEM and he wanted to know
what was urgent regarding H3 and mainline.

[linux-sunxi] donate boards to kernelci

[Benjamin Henrion]

Hi,

We have some 40EUR left too much from the sunxi dinner, it was decided
to buy a Pine64 and donate it for the kernelci lab.

There is also a need to have an H3 board on there, I have a second
Orangepi PC that I will donate as well.

If you have contacts with manufacturers (Olimex, Orangepi, others on
this list), we should seek to have more boards on the kernelci lab.

The kernelci fosdem talk was recorded, most of the technical questions
regarding the lab setup (sd card swap, jtag access, etc...) were
mostly left unanswered.

I am working on a simple usbserial+usbpower controller which could be
the start for actually adding some boards you have at home to the CI
infrastructure. Most of the boards are powered via 5V, so cp2102 usb
dongle can expose the serial console, and it can also control a cheap
5V relay via its exposed DTRpin. I am making a
microUSBfemale-USBfemale adaptor, so that the power can be cut. Now
all of this is connected to a tplink 703n router, which can act as a
VPN/network/shell gateway.

I will add a README.TXT and a wiki page with my findings :-)

I have a OPI-2 (v1.0) and a OPI-PC (v1.2).

The naming convention (OrangePi 2, Plus, Minus, etc...) is just a
nightmare, especially to understand which image is compatible with
which, considering that the SOC is the same for all.

Orangepi.org has also an horrible website with a big rolling banner on
the top of the page, which is confusing even more visitors when you
want to know which board has what.

I went through different states yesterday:

1. Broken USB
2. Broken ethernet
3. Broken wifi support

But I am still stuck at having the 3 properly working, even with
Loboris latest kernel updated with this script:

http://filez.zoobab.com/allwinner/orangepi/mega/update_kernel.sh

which installs this kernel:

$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 3.4.39-01-lobo (boris@UbuntuMate) (gcc version 4.6.3
20120201 (prerelease) (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-2012.02-20120222 -
Linaro GCC 2012.02) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Oct 25 14:46:41 CET 2015

This kernel has working wifi+ethernet, but the USB is broken.

Most of those images seems to have been generated on the 30st of
August, and with a kernel that had broken USB+Ethernet.

For the poor orangepi users around here, I made a mirror of their

There is no way to boot a kernel without the need of the LCD or the

Tarballs are better, as most package managers do not have GIT

 We might want to push sunxi-tools into more Linux distributions than

 At least from my PoV as the Debian maintainer it's not so bad, mostly
 because there isn't very much of it and it's pretty simple/basic.

 The biggest issue from the Debian PoV is the binaries contained in the
 release -- Debian cannot (or does not want to) ship any binary which is
 not rebuilt as part of the package build, so I can't just use them.

 Rebuilding those binaries is hard because sadly cross-compilers are
 still a WIP in Debian and ensuring that an Arch:all package is built on
 a specific architecture (as someone in this thread suggested) is not
 easily achieved. I could just do each upload containing armhf binaries
 instead of relying on the buildd network, but that's just a workaround
 and in any case I prefer to do source only uploads where possible.

 I must confess that I just skirted the issue by not shipping the
 contents of the bin directory or recompiling the things which needed
 cross compiling. The package still provides the fel tool, the fex
 compiler and sunxi-bootinfo which is useful enough to be worth doing
 IMHO even if it lacks some of the handy dev tools.

 Once cross-compiling is sorted out in Debian I'll probably revisit
 shipping that stuff.

I am waiting for binary cross-compilers in debian for at least 10
years now, since I followed emdebian project.

 Hey Benjamin!


 My count of the people attending is 18.

 I may have missed some, but I got stuck at 16 or 17, but with 20 - 22 seats
 we should be okay :)


 We will leave Fosdem together by bus around 7pm, meeting point at 6H45
 at the O'reilly books stand in the H hall.

 I know the tram takes special tram-passes. What is the easiest/cheapest way
 to get this for the group/a few? Payment isn't the issue I would expect.

You do have magnetic cards (vs rfid ones) for 10 trips for 12EUR I think.

You just have to pass the card multiple times according to the number
of people traveling.

It is better to take the bus 71 down to Debroukere, because the bus
stop is not that far away from the restaurant.

PS: for people who are already in Brussels tomorrow, I will be doing
an ES8266 workshop together with Zeromq people, feel free to join
here: https://hackerspace.be/Esp8266-fosdem-workshop

On the Ralink RT5350F, I spent quite some time to find out that you

Maybe it is the same on A20?

Could you share how you did it?

 Hi,
 I'm working on a couple of projects requiring the classic Micro
controller features (low power, deterministic real time processing) and the
classic UX, flexibility and functionality of Linux /android.

 Most SoCs today provide many high level external hardware interfaces
(like Camera, USB, HDMI, etc) but some projects require additional drivers
and interfaces to handle different external hardware. Usually we solve the
interconnectivity with extra MCUs, FPGAs or other specialized chip
interfaces available.

 Sometimes, we design product boards with two solutions: a Cortex A SoC
like Allwinner/rockchip/Omap series and a small MCU Cortex M like the STM32
series, but with a powerful A80, it could change forever.

 I will receive my first Optimus board soon, and I want to customize the
kernel to create a classic Linux running on the powerful 4x A15+ GPU and
Nucleus (or Free RTOS) on one or two of the A7 of the Allwinner A80 Soc. (I
made similar kernel works with MTK SoCs in the past, but never try to run
two operating systems in the same chip at the same time)

 Both projects require continuous operation and deterministic real time
response on the low power processor(s) (RTOS on A7).
 User interaction (Linux on the A15 + GPU side ) is only eventual, so
termal issues by running almost all processors at the same time
occasionally,  should not be a problem.

 If anyone anticipate a significant barrier to build a kernel of this
type, please share it here, I will really appreciate. I will share the
results and evaluation test here

 Additionally I will really appreciate if someone could help me to get
the A80 user manual, (please contact me by email). Both projects require
access to low level A80 features for special hardware interfaces and the
user manual is a must for both projects and future product projects related
with the A80. I want to switch almost all my projects to Allwinner A80.

 Do I understand it right that these spare boards are specifically

 Not everyone thinks that it is the best use of their time at this

 More boards to give away will be available in September :-)

 This is a great news. The software support for A31 suffered

 Thanks for taking the move towards finally solving this chicken/egg

I ordered a devboard based on A31S (not A31) for 44USD, still waiting for it:

 Hi all,

 I am trying to use a pca9535 i2c gpio expander with interrupts on an A10

 of free virtual/software interrupts as configured in
 arch/arm/plat-sunxi/include/plat/irqs.h.  In that file NR_IRQS is coded as
 (96+32) which leaves nothing for virtual/software interrupts.  All of the
 GPIO expanders that support interrupts consume one interrupt per gpio pin on
 the expander (so 16 in my case).  NR_IRQS needs to be set 16 higher for the
 pca953x driver to successfully grab that many interrupts.

Is there any chance to see those GPIOs exported through sysfs like
/sys/class/gpio?

 Very interesting concept, I did see it on DP a while ago. We should add some
 info to our wiki. Personally I'd only be interested in programming AVR's
 using avr dude :D

Avrdude has support for GPIO flashing via sysfs.

The only drawback is that it is way slower then toggling the pins with
/dev/mem entries.

I have looked for a way to make the /dev/mem toggling generic via a
config file, but no luck so far.

Re: [linux-sunxi] Doing some sunxi hacking in Brussels the Friday before Fosdem ?

 Hi All,

 I know it is pretty late for this, and that most of you have already made
 travel
 arrangements, sorry about that.

 I have this last moment spontaneous idea that it would be fun for people who
 are in or
 near Brussels anyways (*), to do some sunxi hacking on the Friday before
 Fosdem.

 Benjamin Henrion, who is also helping with organizing the sunxi dinner
 Saturday evening,
 has reserved some room for this at the urlab hackerspace: http://urlab.be/
 which is around the corner of the Fosdem venue.

 If you think this would be fun and plan to join us Friday please let me
 know. If I get out of bed early enough I can be there at 10 AM, but as you
 can
 imagine if no-one else is coming (or just not that early) then I'll probably
 go
 there a bit later :)

 AFAIK, we can stay there till as late as we want, although I think we'll
 probably
 head out for dinner and then to the Beerfest at 20pm at the latest.

 I'll be in bruxelles around 4pm, a bit late :(
 Anyway let me know if there will be people there.

I will stay there until 10pm, then go for beers at the Delirium after.
