09:22 Ke> ok so, my 10G ethernets do not seem to work on mcbin, is this expected behaviour?
09:32 Ke> this is debian buster 4.15 kernel obviously
09:32 Ke> suihkulokki?
09:45 jnettlet[m]> topi`: ping. What is the name of your serial console program?
13:39 suihkulokki> Ke: haven't tried out
13:39 Ke> suihkulokki: haven't even tried the interface at 1G speeds?
13:39 Ke> mcbin is my only 10G device anyway
13:42 suihkulokki> Ke: 1G works fine
13:43 Ke> what atf/uefi?
13:44 suihkulokki> the ones I published
13:44 suihkulokki> with not working, you mean you are plugging the 10G interface to what?
13:45 Ke> yeah, I have my desktop with 1G nic connected to the 10G interface
13:45 Ke> and then interface just shows it's down even though the leds light up
13:49 suihkulokki> I have no idea if the mcbin 10GB interfaces are capable of 1GB speeds
13:51 Ke> hmm
13:52 Ke> jnettlet[m] ^^ ?
13:53 Ke> well at least now the routing seems to be stable
14:00 topi`> jnettlet[m]: i'm using minicom
14:01 topi`> I'm writing my own DHCP client from scratch, can anyone advice me why I cannot send to a UDP socket at 255.255.255.255 port 68 if I haven't set up an IPv4 address on eth0?
14:02 topi`> I tried "ip link set up eth0", no avail
14:02 topi`> I'll go and ask on #networking
14:06 jnettlet[m]> topi`: ah it must have been someone else. I will check my logs
14:07 Ke> jnettlet[m]: you don't mean my watchdog hack that uses serial port?
14:08 jnettlet[m]> Ke: suihkulokki well the SFP+ standard supports both 10Gbps and 1Gbps for backward compatibility. I had a question regarding the phys for the copper ports and looked at the documentation. They support 1, 2.5, 5, and 10Gbps but the driver can't negotiate that yet. It is on my list.
14:08 Ke> jnettlet[m]: ie. my problem was expected
14:08 jnettlet[m]> checking because Artox has a new Ryzen board that supports 5Gbps
14:08 jnettlet[m]> so we have a test case.
14:09 Ke> I guess they also support 10M and 100M ?
14:11 topi`> dang, I cannot use normal UDP sockets if I haven't already assigned an IP address for the interface...
14:13 vpeter> topi`: use raw sockets then?
14:21 suihkulokki> jnettlet[m]: thanks, I had really no idea how networking > 1GB works
14:21 suihkulokki> I've been told using SFP+ DAC cables is cheapeast way get started, should get one
14:37 jnettlet[m]> suihkulokki: yep I have a couple of those. If you want to connect to a PC then I recommend looking on ebay. You can find some decent mellanox based sfp+ pcie cards that come with DAC cables. Otherwise take a look at fiberstore fs.com their white label 10Gbps mm fiber modules and cables work well at a decent price.
14:39 jnettlet[m]> Their DAC cables. https://www.fs.com/c/10g-sfp-dac-1114
14:46 Ke> heh with ATF-17.08 the google play music does not even break when rebooting
14:52 Ke> there is definitely some magic in accessing that sata ssd connected to my marvell pcie sata controller

15:08 jnettlet[m]> to be used for the preparation of glassware and for the manufacture of glassware;?
15:08 jnettlet[m]> I don't think this channel cares
15:09 Ke> yay, the mcbin native sata ports like me
15:09 Ke> problem is, there are only 3
15:19 Ke> though only this ssd seems to be crashy there
