05:29 jnettlet[m]> Ke: upstream u-boot for which?
06:48 Ke> mcbin
07:45 Ke> obviously there is no regression anymore, when I can start the bisect
07:45 Ke> 4.15.10 boots just fine
07:47 Ke> -# Linux/arm64 4.15.10 Kernel Configuration
07:47 Ke> +# Linux/arm64 4.15.10-rc1 Kernel Configuration
07:47 Ke> diff in configs is that much
07:51 suihkulokki> Ke: 4.16-rc1 ?
07:51 Ke> rc5 was the only 4.16 tried from debian experimental
07:51 suihkulokki> that's broken
07:51 suihkulokki> forget and wait for rc6
07:52 Ke> yes, I can confirm it was broken, as I already tried
07:52 Ke> anyway, as 4.15.10 works, I am just going to drop this for now
07:52 Ke> it also has the scsi patch
07:53 suihkulokki> pretty much all of arm was broken in -rc5 by someone who decided to muck with core kernel page allocation code to fix and issue with a handful of x86 machines
07:54 Ke> so it was one of the x86 commits I disregarded
07:55 Ke> perhaps that patch was also dropped between 4.15.10-rc1 and 4.15.10
07:58 suihkulokki> It was CC:d stable, I don't know if it managed to land to 4.15.x before people started screaming
07:59 Ke> at least 4.15.10 runs
08:37 Ke> wonder if these build guys are starting to strip away relevant make deps again, last time I had to move make install to a separate command, now I guess I'll need to have make -j$(nproc) all && make install && make -j$(nproc) modules_install
08:37 Ke> cp: cannot stat './modules.order': No such file or directory
08:50 suihkulokki> building kernel as root.. naughty boy!
08:51 Ke> =o(
08:51 Ke> in gentoo all kernels are owned by the root
08:52 Ke> I guess with O= I could be able to build as user with readonly sources
08:53 suihkulokki 08:53 * suihkulokki knows nothing about gentoo except the memes people make about it
08:54 Ke> gentoo allows you to install debug and dev packages and build deps for all the packages you install
08:54 Ke> also had more functional perf and adb than debian
08:55 Ke> and some other packages a bit better maintained, like anything in rust/haskell projects
08:56 Ke> the maintenance load is though considerably higher, and since I found equivs having packages installed in debian is considerably less painful
08:58 Ke> though newest version of equivs no longer allows you to install files somehow
09:10 Ke> all debug packages btw. means 50GiB of space
09:10 Ke> or 30, who's counting
09:20 Ke> actually just removed 7GiB of old kernel debug symbols
16:00 vpeter> jnettlet[m]: Do you know what are the changes in latest IBx Bios 0.31-2 ?
16:01 jnettlet[m]> vpeter: we have a newer bios that applies all my changes to tweak the thermal management.
16:01 jnettlet[m]> do you want to test it?
16:02 vpeter> Can it brick? :)
16:03 jnettlet[m]> nope
16:03 jnettlet[m]> https://drive.google.com/open?id=10pP_YneOjqq4KDHY-wpuKKCWw74sd7Y6
16:06 vpeter> You need to approve it - check mail.
16:40 jnettlet[m]> vpeter: sorry try this. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V_U_FNI9aF1--rvC58BT5ASR1khg6LRC/view?usp=sharing
18:24 vpeter> jnettlet[m]: How to create fat43 usb stick? :)
18:24 vpeter> "Fat34 USB storage device with at least 11MB of free space"
18:24 jnettlet[m]> type. should be fat32
18:25 jnettlet[m]> typo
18:25 vpeter> I know :)
18:26 jnettlet[m]> it is beta
18:27 vpeter> Well, if even text is buggy what can I expect from binary bios then :-)
18:37 vpeter> jnettlet[m]: when I type fs0 or fs1 I got "not recognized command". What is wrong? But it list 2 disks on efi enter.
18:37 jnettlet[m]> fs0:
18:38 jnettlet[m]> I think
18:38 jnettlet[m]> just like dos
18:38 vpeter> I should read instructions more carefully :(
18:43 jnettlet[m]> no worries
18:44 Ke> wow, building u-boot is fast
18:51 vpeter> jnettlet[m]: good news - it still boots.
19:04 jnettlet[m]> vpeter: you probably want to go in and reset everything to the defaults. We have tweaked lots of settings for the thermal management.
19:06 vpeter> Always first step after bios upgrade. Checked.
20:37 vpeter> jnettlet[m]: is this error serious? mmc1: cache flush error -110
20:43 Ke> cache flush error sounds like the data could be on disk or not
20:46 vpeter> That's not good then. Was wondering if emmc works with new bios but it is not :(
20:51 Ke> fwiw error -110 is quite common, perhaps it's something like EINVAL, ENOENT or EIO
20:52 Ke> useless error code that is there, because people writing specs hate you
20:52 Ke> next revision will just have EERROR
22:04 jnettlet[m]> vpeter: try going into the MMC config in the BIOS and set the speed to 52MHz instead of AUTO.
