| gnarface | agneli: i've got issues with firefox memory leaks all the time on every architecture and every version for the past decade and a half or so, i just try not to leave it running anymore when i'm done with it. | 22:36 |
|---|---|---|
| * rrq still looking for a way to have my aarch64 h/w boot an aarch32 kernel... | 23:03 | |
| gnarface | rrq: did you dig around in the menuconfig settings? maybe you have to set something in there too | 23:19 |
| rrq | I haven't found any boot variant to boot aarch32; I might have to invent my own. | 23:31 |
| rrq | I've come as far as to isolating the missing assembly snippet | 23:32 |
| gnarface | i'm sure i did it accidentally once, maybe with a pre-built copy of u-boot stock on my pinebook, but i'm sure it's possible | 23:32 |
| gnarface | i guess the details may be board specific... | 23:32 |
| rrq | well, the assembly involves 'exception level' transition into the aarch32 execution... actually maybe it's something with the dtb(?) | 23:34 |
| rrq | so may wheels within wheels :) | 23:34 |
| rrq | I meant that maybe u-boot does the transition but then the kernel gets upset iwth the arm64-compiled dtb | 23:35 |
| gnarface | it's over my head, but aiui, yes the dtb is where hardware-specific parts go | 23:44 |
| gnarface | so that would make sense | 23:44 |
| gnarface | i forget, are you using the exact right dtb for your board or just one similar? | 23:44 |
| onefang | dtb is device table if I recall. | 23:44 |
| rrq | yes the exact one sun50i-h6-orangepi-3-lts.dtb | 23:46 |
| rrq | yes "dtb" means "device tree blob" which is a compile from one or more "dts" | 23:48 |
| gnarface | someone around here must know what the trick is | 23:49 |
| rrq | hmm my dtb isn't on denx.de/u-boot/u-boot.git master branch | 23:53 |
| rrq | it has only sun50i-h6-orangepi-3 and not sun50i-h6-orangepi-3-lts | 23:54 |
