Booster[m]if the Reform had stable standby, I think the Reform would be perfect. So close. I know standby is possible. 18:57

Booster[m]Wonderful to hear minute 19:08
c-keen[m]<minute> "in other news, i managed to..." <- What's been the problem with it?19:09
Booster[m]<Booster[m]> "if the Reform had stable standby..." <- Hibernation would also be great. One or the other, if stable would be amazing. 19:11
eerySuspend is a lot less appealing to me since it only drops power consumption to half of "normal" powered-on current19:18
Booster[m]Yes, but half consumption means it can last around 12 hours on battery19:19
Booster[m]If you are taking the Reform to work and using it, this means you can get through a work day without needing to charge. 19:19
pandora[m]why just "half" the power? what is eating so much in suspend?19:20
Booster[m]If hibernation were an option this would of course be better for power consumption, but I think suspend is lower hanging fruit in that regard. It works about 75% of the time under kernel 6.1 with the display work-a-round that minute mentioned in on the forms. 19:20
Booster[m]pandora: this is just the way the SoC operates. Same kind of issue on the Librem 5 as well. 19:21
eeryI'm not sure I follow -- if you're using it for work, how does suspend help?19:21
Booster[m]because I only use it for about an hour or 2 on my breaks and lunch. 19:21
eeryah, I see :)19:22

minutec-keen[m]: short on 5V rail, which was a failed capacitor on the imx8mq module19:45
minutenow i just diagnosed another motherboard from a customer. it was also a 5V rail short, but totally different problem. it was failed diode D20 (SK54A-LTP) at the switch node of U719:45
Booster[m]awesome, thanks for sharing the details minute !19:51
Booster[m]minute: You know I was thinking about the suspend thing, and one thing that occured to me is the amount of the system memory (RAM) I am using. I have a lot of things open and my swap is getting used. I wonder if this is what contributes to the suspend issues. Becuase if there is a problem re-initilizing the NVME drive then the swap is gone, and that means part of the OS that are in real time can't be accessed. Seems like a likely19:52
Booster[m]culprit for a crash. 19:52
Booster[m]That makes sense to you?19:52
c-keen[m]<minute> "c-keen: short on 5V rail..." <- Which one was that?20:12
minutehmm, the main issue on that customer reform is also the imx8mq module. with it, the system draws around 20W unbooted, with an OK module the system draws only 3W.20:45
minuteso i guess that's what killed the diode on the 5V buck20:45
+ ajr (~ajr@user/ajr)20:51
Boostisbetterminute: one thing that has been happening a lot for me, is the LPC is glitching and freezing, and the only way to get it to reset is to unplug the battery boards. Is this what I'm supposed to be doing or is there another way to reset the thing when it glitches?20:55
minuteBoostisbetter: did you try the LPC reset button?20:57
minuteBoostisbetter: also, at some point i added brownout reset to the LPC, it might help you20:57
minute(firmware)20:57
minuteok so the issue on the imx8mq module is again one of those input MLCCs gone bad. 20:58

minuteyep, after exchanging it the power draw is back to normal21:10
minutechartreuse: when you switched on your reform after the mosfet change, did you have the cpu module inserted or not?21:15
Boostisbetter> (firmware)21:17
BoostisbetterI just updated the firmware. Maybe it was just a glitch. I'll try the LPC reset in the future. I know I've tried that in the past and it didn't work. Do you just push the button quickly or do you have to hold it down a bit as well?21:17
minuteBoostisbetter: normally just for a moment21:17
minute(quickly)21:17
Boostisbetterok21:17
Boostisbetterminute: do you think you might make an update that would permit the Reform to charge from PD (USB C)? 21:18
minuteBoostisbetter: you mean a new motherboard?21:18
minuteBoostisbetter: the easiest way is to use a usb-c pd to barrel jack adapter, did you consider this?21:18
Boostisbetterminute, nope, but I will get one. What sort of output does the battery pack need to provide in order to work as intended with the Reform?21:19
minuteBoostisbetter: in community there is a thread with tests of those adapters, maybe someone there has experience with battery packs as well.21:20
minuteBoostisbetter: regarding suspend, perhaps this calls for a bounty? maybe nanocodebug could be asked if they want to look into it?21:20
Boostisbetter👍️21:21
Boostisbettersure, anything to kind of get the gauntlet out there. I'm sure someone can sort it out. 21:21
minuteyou could start a thread about it on community21:23
minutei believe the error has to be tracked down again with kgdb or jtag21:23
minuteBoostisbetter: ah, nevermind, there's already that active thread so that's probably the best place21:27
Boostisbetterok, do you know of an organization we can appeal to with a bounty?21:32

JC[m]+1 on a bounty. I don't have much spare cash right now but I can pitch in something.22:40
Booster[m]josch: ok, will do. I am going to bed now, but i'll looking into 'dropping' a bounty at bountysource tomorrow during breaks at work. 22:42
Booster[m]josch: thanks again for your efforts to get me the 5.12 kernel. I am using it again now for some suspend stability. It is nice to be able to switch between the two. 22:56
