<DC-IRC> [Discord] <amazingfate> What kind of error?

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <spooky8086> 6.1 has been working well for me, ive been using it for the past few weeks
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <spooky8086> 6.1 has been working well for me, ive been using it a lot for the past few weeks
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <gambl0r> I might go back to vendor kernel, this 6.1.43-vendor-boogie-panthor-rk35xx isn't performing as well as I'd hoped
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <gambl0r> though kde plasma6 is so nice
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <shivansps> well nothing new here, ill try on the OPI5
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> Look above
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> We've had this discussion before, there's a kernel patch
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> And you should probably also check the rpi efforts on this, as original drivers likely won't work. They also need to be patched.

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> Learning about device tree. Does anybody know why the defconfig for https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/blob/master/configs/nanopc-t6-rk3588\_defconfig contains `CONFIG_RTL8169=y` but there is no RTL8169 on the board?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> The dts also contains no rtl references
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> Nanopc has rtl8125
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> The rtl8169 driver also has limited 8125 support
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> I heard back from a friend who said that it's because it's PCI-E, and it's about compiling u-boot drivers for it
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> so the dts will only have PCI-E nodes
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> then if we want to netboot in u-boot we need that driver
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> Yeah, you don't describe pcie devices in dts
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> though failing to add the drive to the config will not prevent it from working in Linux
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> though failing to add the driver to the config will not prevent it from working in Linux
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> I think overall this makes sense
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> U-boot dts and drivers only apply to u-boot
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> so are there drivers for wireless chips in u-boot? Can you do wifi netboot?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> Doubt
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> It doesn't support many ethernet adapters either
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> interesting
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> so it's just better to get into Linux and then perform the juicy bits there, in most cases?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> I've had hell setting up conferences with Raspberry Pi's and its failing netboot, though u-boot on an sd card would work, their firmware is very broken
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> At what point does u-boot just turn into Linux, or a full OS like grub? 😄
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> I'm also curious about the requirement to share code between Linux tree and u-boot's tree, and why that happened. They sync device trees with the linux device trees
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> @mariob In the dumped device tree for my board, there's references to rtl8111 but not to rtl8211 which I can physically see on the board, do you know why that might be?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <shivansps> i did it whiout any patches on the OPI5 and the drm driver crashes so hard that it fills the dmesg and i cant even see what is going on before the 12 seconds mark lol
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <shivansps> meh in not going to waste much more time on this i just wanted to see what was the current situacion
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mariob> Can you post the decompiled dump here?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> They are here
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> I'm looking at `07_dtbdump_rockchip,rk3588-evb1-lp4-v10.dtb`
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> https://termbin.com/luy5
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> this is it decompiled
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <matthewcroughan> The thing I'm trying to debug, is that I get `rk_gmac-dwmac fe1b0000.ethernet end0: __stmmac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error: -22)` in the dmesg, and here's the full dmesg context https://termbin.com/kxmi
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <enok71> After some investigation most of my problems were related to a RTL8188CUS WiFi dongle in a USB port. (That dongle has worked well before though.)
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <enok71> The remaining problem I have is getting the rock-5a-radxa-camera-4k overlay and my camera working as it should. Trying to figure out if that overlay or something else in the devicetree is wrong right now.
