01:42 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <legion1581> Hey folks, new here! I’m working on the Rockchip RK3588S and need more information about it. Does anyone know how to get access to the Rockchip repository (www.rockchip.com.cn), especially the RK3588S SDK and development resources? I heard that my SSH key needs to be added to their Git. Do they provide access upon request?

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> does anyone have a solution to this?

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> ```plaintext

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> [🚸] Command failed, retrying in 5s [ check_loop_device_internal /dev/loop0p1 ]

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> [🚸] Command failed 5 times, giving up [ check_loop_device_internal /dev/loop0p1 ]

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> [💥] error! [ Device node does not exist after 5 tries. ]

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> [💥] Exiting with error 43 [ at /data/armbian/lib/functions/logging/traps.sh:1```

04:03 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> The loop device isn't available when I work from within the container on MacOS. Last year the trick was to restart DockerDesktop, but that stopped working at some point 😅

04:04 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> the dpkgs do build, and it only fails in creating the final .img

04:20 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zeeto9> Maybe run it in —privileged mode?

07:15 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> basically impossible without knowing someone who knows someone. Linux Kernel and Technical reference manual are available though

08:14 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> That is for paying customers.

09:17 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> hahaha

09:17 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> how many thousands of dollars can you spare

10:19 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> we're lucky that certain internal documents get leaked, the entire SDK is rather difficult to obtain; if you've got the necessary financial backing though, it can be done

12:09 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> yeah thanks.. I did htat, and a few more things.. here's my docker-compose.yml

12:09 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> https://hastebin.com/share/ipakosizar.ruby

12:09 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> It's important to use the docker/linux fs so that the directories can't get corrupted by the spotlight files, and maintain permissions, so I endorse this method if it works!

12:09 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> It's fully functional build env .. minus that one key detail re: loop device.

12:33 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <johnthecoolingfan> has this problem on Linux, where the docker losetup call would create the loop device on host, but would not expose it to the container. Made and added a workaround that calls `losetup -f` if there isn't a loop device existing. At first it was just a user extension, now it's meregd into the framework and is run in a temporary container to not require sudo.

15:23 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <legion1581> Thanks for the reply, guys! I didn’t know it that hard

17:23 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <legion1581> so, just to clarify. Do i need to be a hardware manufacturer like Radxa\Orange Pi and place an order on some miminum ammount of SoCs from them in order to be added to their internal repo?

17:39 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> We are providing support for some hardware manufactures (platinum support https://www.armbian.com/download/?device_support=Platinum%20support) If they are happy with this, no reason that you wouldn't be https://www.armbian.com/contact/ We are on the top of this kernel, which is the base of SDK, with maintainance, and also provide mainline (which doesn't cover all features, but is <clipped message>

17:39 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> more recent, cleaner, safer) as an option. If you need pro support, contact us, we can provide it. Our SDK is also far more advanced and opensource. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Overview/

22:18 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> pretty much. but most of what you need has been leaked already

22:19 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> the SDK, TRMs and developer guides

22:37 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> Thank you John! Is this the line here?

22:37 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> functions/host/docker.sh: run_host_command_logged docker run --rm --privileged --cap-add=MKNOD "${DOCKER_ARMBIAN_INITIAL_IMAGE_TAG}" /usr/sbin/losetup -f

22:37 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <zwillx> I need to mess with it for mac, because there is no loop device on mac, so I'm trying to fake it with a blank .img file mounted as loop0

22:40 <DC-IRC> [Discord] <johnthecoolingfan> Yes, that's the one.
