I was looking for patches but couldn't find one, or did I just miss them? +09:08 < wsa> uli_: the break fixes you sent, do they fix it with DMA, or were they needed even for non-DMA transfers? +09:08 < geertu> wsa: They're still WIP +09:08 < uli_> it was broken in both cases +09:09 < geertu> -WTOOMANYBOARDS ;-) +09:09 < geertu> W.r.t. that, I should be receving schematics for the Beacon boards soon. +09:09 < wsa> uli_: I assumed so. And are the patches enough to enable SysRq with DMA now, or do we still need to re-enable interrupts with DMA +09:10 < uli_> error interrupts are not disabled with dma +09:10 < uli_> don't know where that came from +09:10 < wsa> geertu: why does it need to be fixed per board? +09:10 < geertu> wsa: The fix involves adding compatible values to identify all Ethernet PHYs +09:11 < wsa> geertu: Uh, I see +09:11 < wsa> uli_: so the task is done now? +09:11 < uli_> i would say so +09:12 < geertu> The issue is that if no compatible values are present, the MDIO core reads the PHY ID from the PHY, which fails if reset is still asserted. +09:12 < wsa> uli_: cool +09:12 < geertu> You could say that's a bug in the Linux MDIO/PHY code, but the PHY people don't want to fix it, and recommended using compatible values instead. +09:12 < wsa> geertu: and we can't deassert the reset before reading? +09:13 < geertu> wsa: in theory we can. People posted patches to do that before, which were rejected. +09:13 < wsa> moriperi: you just wrote "Add new board for Renesas Remote Access System" Is this a Renesas internal system or also accesible for, let's say, EuroPeri? ;) +09:13 < wsa> geertu: with a valid reason? +09:14 < wsa> damm: by any chance, any news about the Condor board which failed last time we wanted to access it? +09:14 < geertu> wsa: I think it broke something else. +09:14 < marex> geertu: compatible = "ethernet-phy-id0007.c0f0", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"; does not work ? +09:15 < damm> wsa: sorry i did not proceed looking into that. will do next time i visit the remote access location. you did get eagle going at least right? +09:15 < geertu> marex: that's exactly what I'm doing ;) +09:15 < marex> geertu: ok +09:15 < marex> geertu: yep, that issue is nasty +09:16 < damm> marex: i guess "c0f0" is the CRC? +09:16 < marex> nope +09:16 < marex> lan8710 PHY ID +09:16 < wsa> damm: yes, eagle worked and this will help enough already. condor might be nice for better testing, but it is not essential +09:16 < damm> sorry for poor joke. but i'm not sure if that is any better. +09:16 < geertu> damm: two 16-bits values separated by dot +09:16 < marex> that's where you fill in the two PHY ID register values of your PHY instead +09:17 < damm> haha +09:17 < damm> now the only thing missing is some sort of JIT machine interpreting opcodes +09:17 < marex> geertu: they could've just used the dot product (heh) +09:18 < geertu> marex: network people like separates (dots, colons, ...) +09:18 < geertu> separators +09:18 < marex> damm: like lua in dt ? +09:18 < wsa> okay, i have no more questions +09:18 < wsa> anything from your side? +09:19 < wsa> but I still want to get out some sparkling wine +09:19 < damm> which group would OpenOCD be assigned to? +09:19 < geertu> wsa: and the Renesas Remote Access System? +09:19 < wsa> for the first useful remote scoping of the GPIO logic analyzer \o/ +09:19 < geertu> damm: core +09:20 < wsa> geertu: I'm sure moriperi will answer it once he gets back to IRC +09:20 < wsa> he is probably still busy understanding Renesas problems ;) +09:21 < geertu> wsa: congrats, and cheers! +09:22 < damm> wsa: are the latest SDHI fixed included in renesas-drivers? +09:22 < wsa> uli_: for enabling PWM on V3U, I will probably need to use your "sample-the-GPIO-input-register" approach. Already looking forward to that :D +09:22 < uli_> always happy to help with a horrible hack :) +09:23 < damm> wsa: i remember running into some issue and i want to retest on some kernel version but i'm not sure which +09:23 < wsa> damm: The lastest one not. Usually they come back via linux-next because Ulf applies them kinda fast +09:23 < wsa> but the latest one is only Gen2, with non SDR104 instances +09:23 < kbingham> wsa, Are there any pictures of the scope traces? +09:23 < geertu> damm: and one Ulf has applied them, they'll end uo in next renesas-drivers automagically. +09:23 < damm> wsa: can you let me know when we have a supposedly fixed kernel that i can test? +09:23 < geertu> s/one/once/ +09:24 < damm> so i guess next renesas-drivers release then perhaps? +09:24 < kbingham> Was the data visibly noisy/lossy from tracing on the same CPU? or was the resolution such that it didn't matter? +09:24 < wsa> kbingham: not from the TPU yesterday, but from I2C which I scoped for testing: https://elinux.org/Kernel_GPIO_Logic_analyzer +09:25 < wsa> damm: let me check latest renesas-drivers. My gut feeling is that it is good to go on non-Gen2 +09:25 < damm> wsa: no need, i think i saw the issue on Gen2 actually +09:25 < damm> probably Koelsch +09:26 < moriperi> was: sorry for my late response. I'm now e-meeting with Renesas too :( +09:26 < wsa> then it is likely fixed by the patch Ulf still needs to apply +09:26 < damm> ok cool. thanks. +09:26 < moriperi> Sorry, Renesas Remote System is only for Renesas member, it needs to access Renesas internal net. +09:26 < wsa> kbingham: I measured 1 and 2kHz with a sampling speed of 1MHz. +09:27 < kbingham> wsa, Oh ... plenty of excess there then ;-) +09:27 < moriperi> s/was/wsa/ +09:27 < wsa> kbingham: the V3U with non-SMP gave me a maximum speed of 1.4MHz. M3-N with an isolated bigCore gave 3.8Mhz. +09:27 < geertu> wsa: Nyquist and Shannon will be happy to improve on that ;-) +09:27 < marex> wsa: I hate to be a FS, but ... did you consider wiring the cortexR to the JTAG port of the RCar3 and using BST to precisely sample your pins without any GPIO nonsense involved in it ? +09:28 < marex> wsa: that works even for debugging DDR2/3 DRAM on certain chips +09:28 < marex> the CA5x will suffer from horrid jitter between samples +09:28 < wsa> marex: nope. The aim is here a simple setup +09:29 < marex> well if it doesn't return reliable results, what's the point +09:29 < kbingham> marex, It showed that the device was operating.... +09:29 < wsa> I had a 4% error rate. Of course, I can't say if it is my analyzer or the TPU driver using this approach +09:30 < wsa> But for finding out that the PWM is in the 1kHz or 2kHz range, it is good enough +09:30 < damm> it is cool that you can hook it up to sigrok. i think the saleae logic devices are supposed to be supported there too, but i have not yet tested. +09:30 < marex> wsa: yeah, that's why you use FPGA for logic analyzers, with precise sample spacing implemented in hardware +09:30 < kbingham> wsa, If you need an accurate pulse measurement, I can hook the scope up and get some timings +09:30 < wsa> damm: yep, they are. They are even recommended by sigrok devs +09:30 < wsa> kbingham: I don't need accurate +09:30 < wsa> I could do this locally +09:31 < wsa> I just wanted to know if enabling TPU on V3U worked +09:31 < geertu> marex: yep, "does it blink slow or fast?" is sometimes good enough. +09:31 < wsa> marex: come on, we had this before. I don't need "precise" for this task +09:31 < marex> geertu: the report here would be "yeah, it kinda blinks every once in a while, the interval is a bit wobbly though" +09:31 < wsa> marex: I am fully aware of the limitations +09:32 < wsa> marex: and all for you, I named it "sloppy" everywhere :) +09:32 < damm> if anyone needs it i can probably hook up a saleae logig 16 or 8 via USBIP for remote access +09:32 < marex> damm: is that cypress based or fpga based ? +09:33 < damm> not sure but it works out of the box +09:33 < marex> I think they did use cypress cortexM in it , with USB and custom firmware +09:33 < damm> the logic 8 pro is nicer than the 16 that i bought many years ago. it also has support for analogue channels which i don't really neeed. +09:33 < geertu> wsa: Is PWM clocked by a spread spectrum source? +09:34 < marex> https://www.asix.net/dbg_sigma.htm works with sigrok just fine, FPGA based +09:34 < wsa> It is clocked by S1D8 +09:34 < marex> triggers need work +09:34 < wsa> that is all i know +09:35 < damm> marex: looks nice, but the peeing contest with respect to sampling rate is won by logic 8 with 500 MS/s +09:36 < wsa> can we switch to core now? +09:36 < wsa> geertu: you ready? +09:37 < geertu> wsa: I am +09:37 < damm> wsa: any chance the logic analyzer will work with sharing GPIOs with other devices somehow? =) +09:37 < wsa> damm: that might actually be possible, but probably so hacky that I can't upstream it :D +09:37 < wsa> geertu: have fun! |
