Port Linux Mainline On Khadas VIM

umiddelb · July 3, 2017, 7:15pm

Hi numbqq,

thank you for sharing. I have some remarks/questions.

Why do you need to disable scpi_clocks? This will cut off cpu frequency scaling.
I’ve tried to run a mainline kernel on the Khadas VIM for a couple of months, I still haven’t found a workaround for this tedious network issue.
I’ve automated the setup procedure for a number of ARM boards. If there is some interest, I can add (basic, i.e. no GUI) support for other distributions then Ubuntu like Debian 9, Devuan 8, CentOS7 and Fedora 25 for the Khadas VIM.

Will there be a mainline Ubuntu image soon?

Hi ravelo,

I just test 4.12-rc5 and rc6, and I think the newer version is OK, too. But note that when you build ramdisk you
should replace the kernel version number.

# mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img 'kernel-version-number'

Yes, Ubuntu 17.04/10 will coming soon.

Hi umiddelb,
Because I got a kernel panic randomly with scpi_clocks enabled, so disable it before I found why. Does you ever meet this?

Hi umiddelb,
Yes, we have the same issue.

Thanks for your work, just do it, that will be helpfull.

numbqq · July 4, 2017, 2:37am

Hi Tommy21,

There is a ubuntu mainline pre-alpha version.

Thanks.

umiddelb · July 4, 2017, 8:18am

Yes I have. The workaround is performing a hard power cycle instead of a reboot. Have you tried to start a mainline kernel with a mainline u-boot.

vrabac · July 4, 2017, 8:22am

@numbqq well you should at try to fix it yourself or at least report to mainline kernel support so the devs who implement it could fix that issue.

I also used myself mainline kernel 4.12-rc7 and did not have such random crash, how do they occur?

umiddelb · July 4, 2017, 8:23am

This is all covered here.

umiddelb · July 4, 2017, 8:24am

Which defconfig and which dtb are you using?

vrabac · July 4, 2017, 9:00am

I am using ArchLinuxArm packages, this package contains PKGBUILD and other files needed to build kernel under ArchLinuxArm, there you find the config file. The dtb file I also use from that packages, the ‘meson-gxl-s905x-khadas-vim.dtb’ one.

How to extract that pkg.tar.xz you can find in this how-to

numbqq · July 4, 2017, 10:30am

Hi umiddelb,

I have not try mainline uboot yet.

Thanks.

numbqq · July 4, 2017, 10:37am

Hi vrabac,

I will try the latest version in next few days to confirm whether this issue is exist or not.

Thanks.

umiddelb · July 4, 2017, 3:23pm

I’ve merged the Archlinux aarch64 defaults into gx_defconfig.

umiddelb · July 4, 2017, 3:26pm

This issue has gone with 4.12.

Tommy21 · July 4, 2017, 3:27pm

Yes, i thought about Ubuntu desktop image, not server, i was busy while i was writing this post so i totally forgot about this alpha version.

As i remember usb doesn’t work on this version, can this somehow be patched manually using 4.12 or do we have to wait for 4.13 release?

Do Mali drivers work for 4.12, do we get proper hardware acceleration, or we still need to wait for it?

What about changing screen resolution in Ubuntu, will it be possible in the near future?

vrabac · July 4, 2017, 3:28pm

as you wrote they are defaults, and many stuff will be build which may not be needed by Khadas VIM Pro but until Khadas Stuff don’t release they kvim_defconfig it could be a good start.

If you get any crash please report them to linux-amlogic mailing list

numbqq · July 5, 2017, 2:00am

Hi umiddelb,

Thanks for your try.

umiddelb · July 5, 2017, 5:24am

It’s all there, feedback welcome.

vrabac · July 5, 2017, 7:30pm

Do you use mainline u-boot? Does it work without issue on Khadas VIM Pro (also enabling multiboot)?
