| Boostisbetter | mntmn: have you ever thought about using the work you've put into the BMC on the Reform in a standalone power bank device? If you look across the industry you'll see that most are designed to not be user repairable and that after the batteries in it wear out, you need to buy a whole new bank. If you made one with the circuirty you've already designed, it could be low hanging fruit, in that it sho | 11:27 |
| Boostisbetter | uldn't take much work to create an enclosure, and make a complete product. If you could get something milled in the same material as the Reform itself, you would make a power bank, that like the Reform, was designed to last. I think it would sell like hot cakes. Just have it use 8 18650 lifepos like the Reform, and you have a powerful relatively compact power bank that can last as long as the cus | 11:27 |

| + Christoph_ (~Christoph@p54bf63e6.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) | 11:47 | |
| mntmn | Boostisbetter: interesting idea, thanks | 12:09 |
| mntmn | josch: looks like we don't have enough space for both builds on the ramdisk | 12:11 |
| mntmn | josch: i would suggest i delete your build dir, disable the runner on your repo and you do a MR on the main repo, lets see if it gets built in the same old directory | 12:13 |
| josch | mntmn: sure! | 12:32 |
| mntmn | josch: ok, i already did step 1 and 2 ;) | 12:32 |
| josch | mntmn: the MR already exists here: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-system-image/-/merge_requests/36 Is there anything else to do on my end? | 12:33 |
| mntmn | hmm > Merge blocked: merge conflicts must be resolved | 12:39 |
| josch | ah yes, you pushed "Update to Linux Kernel v5.17-rc2" into sysimage-v3. In the future, could you put the kernel patches here instead: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/tree/main/linux/patches | 12:42 |
| josch | Because we want to install the kernel as a Debian package so that we can upgrade it using "apt-get upgrade" instead of building a uImage as part of reform-system-image | 12:42 |
| josch | I already put the v5.17-rc2 changes from reform-system-image into reform-debian-packages | 12:43 |
| mntmn | josch: yes, alright | 12:45 |
| mntmn | josch: btw how does the kernel update mechanism work? i.e. how does it find/mount the boot partition that contains the kernel? | 12:45 |
| josch | I didn't do any additional partitions so right now there is only one partition for /. Would you prefer an additional partition for /boot? | 12:46 |
| josch | The package that does the magic with u-boot in Debian is called flash-kernel. On every kernel package upgrade it will place the kernel image and dtb in a known place where uboot can find it. This is what the following patch to flash-kernel does for the reform: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/blob/main/patches/flash-kernel | 12:47 |
| mntmn | josch: ah, i was only thinking about the "boot from sd/emmc, system on nvme" case | 12:49 |
| mntmn | josch: sorry, i should have said boot device, not partition | 12:49 |
| josch | You mean a scenario where you still use the SD card to boot but the system is on nvme? | 12:50 |
| mntmn | josch: yes, because the SoC can't boot directly from nvme | 12:50 |
| josch | That would be done by putting the nvme partition in /etc/fstab and then re-running flash-kernel. | 12:51 |
| mntmn | josch: i boot u-boot and kernel from SD card, then reform-init mounts the nvme (with luks support) and then pivots the root to that and runs init from the nvme | 12:51 |
| mntmn | josch: ok | 12:51 |
| josch | So your sd-card would contain /boot and not just u-boot? | 12:52 |
| mntmn | josch: also, you have a new mechanism for single/dual display selection (a file called disable_hdmi that is checked by u-boot). did you already integrate this with reform-display-config? | 12:52 |
| josch | nope | 12:52 |
| josch | I'm trying to figure out how to have flash-kernel manage multiple dtbs for the same board. | 12:52 |
| josch | Which dtb will be submitted for kernel upstream integration? Both? | 12:53 |
| mntmn | josch: reform-display-config just overwrites the dtb on the boot device | 12:53 |
| mntmn | josch: the one for the single display, because the HDMI driver is not in mainline | 12:53 |
| mntmn | josch: a version of that dtb is already in mainline, it's only missing pcie internal refclock support IIRC | 12:54 |
| mntmn | and sleep/wake support | 12:54 |
| mntmn | yeah so our remaining patches are really only to cover dual display+HDMI | 12:54 |
| mntmn | and a hack to support sleep via the vendor version of TF-A | 12:55 |
| josch | I'll have to put a lot more work into making the duo-dtb setup work because that's nothing other boards do. | 12:55 |
| josch | And currently the dtb is also managed by flash kernel because the dtb gets upgraded with the kernel itself. | 12:55 |
| mntmn | josch: the only drawback of the dual display dtb is that the internal display is run by a less performant display engine (LCDIF instead of DCSS) and the panel is run at a lower freq | 12:56 |
| mntmn | so we can't just default to it | 12:56 |
| josch | :/ | 12:57 |
| josch | so things will stay hacky for another while | 12:57 |
| mntmn | maybe we could solve it with 2 debs that are alternatives or something? | 12:57 |
| mntmn | so you could switch with apt? only an idea | 12:57 |
| mntmn | yeah, things will stay hacky because we need to work around hardware limitations | 12:58 |

| mntmn | josch: thanks! i'm gonna merge so we can see if the pipeline works | 13:15 |
| josch | Great. If something breaks i'll open another MR. | 13:16 |
| josch | Your fix of /ramdisk/builds also has worked and the reform-debian-packages pipeline is running again. | 13:17 |
| mntmn | ok cool | 13:18 |
| josch | I moved both reform-debian-packages as well as reform-system-image from unstable to testing. In the past three weeks I was unable to work because unstable contained changes that made building images fail. This should not happen with testing. | 13:18 |
| josch | For example right now the libwacom transition is underway (thus we cannot install anything that uses Qt5) and the perl5.24 transition is happening (hence no perl) | 13:18 |

| josch | mntmn: could you bump the CI pipeline timeout by a bit? The sysimage-v3 just failed because it reached the 1h timeout. Maybe bump by another 30 minutes to find out how long the job needs on that machine? Thanks! | 15:51 |
| mntmn | ohhh ok... 1h is a lot! before it took like 45 mins | 16:05 |
| mntmn | incl. the kernel | 16:06 |
| mntmn | any idea why it would need this long? | 16:06 |
| josch | yes | 16:06 |
| josch | The reason is genext2fs which turns the tarball into the image. Doing that takes half an hour so there is a bottleneck somewhere. I'm currently trying to find out whether genext2fs can be made faster. | 16:07 |

| Boostisbetter | in that it shouldn't take much work to create an enclosure, and make a complete product. If you could get something milled in the same material as the Reform itself, you would make a power bank, that like the Reform, was designed to last. | 16:52 |

| Boostisbetter | mntmn: for the first time I have gotten two LPC freezes. I had to disconnect the batteries to get it to restart, but I did see that there is a reset button next to the power connectors on the mainboard. | 16:55 |
| Boostisbetter | mntmn: is there something that you are already aware of that could be triggering an issue? When the LPC freezes the LPC menu is up, but it is flickering with other display noise, and does not respond to commands or the arrow keys. | 16:56 |
