08:16 topi` rabeeh needs to add a python interpreter to his buildroot. Maybe it increases the size from 30M to 40M but then at least I don't have to pull my hair out figuring how to statically link and compile my flasher tool
08:17 topi` I tried to compile my own buildroot image but somehow failed to append that to a kernel image
15:17 topi` any guide for building my own zImage+buildroot bundle?
15:17 topi` is that just an uImage with embedded ramdisk?
16:21 topi` I get "unhandled level 3 permission faults", whatever they are
16:21 topi` maybe the 8040 is running too hot
16:34 Artox topi`,
16:34 Artox you mean translation fault
16:34 Artox do you?
16:48 Artox is that in a VM or native?
17:48 topi` running natively debian 9.0 on the macchiato
17:49 topi` i've started printing out the thermal_zone?/temp values
17:49 topi` and when compiling, it hovers at around 90 degrees
17:50 topi` I don't know if it can hit 100C before resetting
17:50 topi` I didn't know buildroot takes this long to build... it fetched *everything* from scratch, like gcc-5 sources
17:50 topi` also the 3.14-imx-sr kernel
17:53 topi` BAH, "recipe for target failed"
17:53 topi` imx_v7_cbi_hb_defconfig_defconfig
17:54 topi` I already see where my mistake is :)
17:54 topi` I hope it doesn't start fetching & compiling gcc from the beginning...
17:54 vpeter seems writing here helps :)
17:56 topi` now that i'm working with these things... it actually is a good skill to have, building and customising buildroot :)
17:57 vpeter Like download buildroot sources, configure them, build :-)
18:02 topi` there are a million items to configure
18:02 vpeter I'm sure someone from sr can give you current build config.
18:02 topi` but i'm impressed at the speed the 8040 can churn through the kernel source
18:03 topi` approxiately the same as my 2.3 ghz tegra K1 (with quad cortex-a15 at 2.33 GHz)
18:03 topi` however, this is 1.3 ghz vs 2.3 :)
18:19 topi` wtf, is v7_cbi_hb_defconfig going to build *all* modules?? i see it working on reiserfs there...
18:19 topi` who uses reiserfs anymore? :)
18:21 topi` omg, it's compiling drivers/isdn...
18:22 topi` isdn was a bit thing... in the 90s...
18:32 Artox topi`, last time I saw these error messages, I didn't trace them.
18:32 Artox Instead a different kernel build then worked fine
18:32 Artox On the other Hand
18:32 Artox Debian 9.0 as KVM guest has these error messages all the time
18:50 topi` it took an hour :( MODPOST 2161 modules
18:50 topi` whoa
18:51 topi` Artox: i'm running on bare metal :)
18:52 Artox I see
18:52 Artox opensuse mailinglist recommended my looing at pagesize in kernel config
18:52 Artox I never tested because the problem went away
18:53 topi` the best way to let the 8040 run a little bit cooler seems to be to switch from performance governor to ondemand
18:53 Artox see if it is different from a make ARCH=arm64 defconfig
18:54 topi` funny, my clock is at year 2106
18:54 topi` Artox: I'm actually building a buildroot for the hummingboard :)
18:54 topi` on the macchiato... cross-compiling :D
