10:06 <arnd> ardb: I was running with the INIT_DIR_SIZE over the past days and just got one more "ld.lld: error: assignment to symbol __init_end does not converge" instead of maybe ten I would have seen before during that timespan. Trying the 32MB alignment change now

10:07 <arnd> I suspect that both approaches only make it less likely to hit the bug, not fix it completely as you can always be right at an alignment boundary

10:08 <ardb> the fixed 1g size should eliminate that entirely, as the size will no longer depend on the address of _end

10:35 <arnd> ardb: the one that failed with the INIT_DIR_SIZE patch also fails with the 32MB alignment. I've created a reproducer with "ld.lld --reproduce" and uploaded it to https://drive.google.com/file/d/117DVRE0ltuXglclDEehIMoezT3_58zGm/view?usp=sharing

11:03 <ardb> ok i'll take a look but not today

17:17 <ardb> arnd: ok so it is __init_end that does not converge

17:17 <ardb> i thought it was _end

22:04 <ukleinek> mmind00: where do I find docs and tools about recovery booting a rk3568?

22:12 <mmind00> ukleinek: (1) https://packages.debian.org/sid/rkdeveloptool

22:12 <mmind00> ukleinek: (2) https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin

22:13 <mmind00> now I remember how to build that "flash" binary ... i.e. you'll need a ddr-init + usb-download binary that is a combination of files from that rkbin repo

22:14 <mmind00> (now I _need to_ remember ...)

22:32 <mmind00> ukleinek: in the rkbin checkout, do something like "tools/boot_merger RKBOOT/RK3568MINIALL.ini"

22:33 <mmind00> which should generate a file rk356x_spl_loader_v1.18.112.bin

22:34 <mmind00> from there it'd be then:

22:34 <mmind00> - boot into maskrom mode

22:34 <mmind00> - rkdeveloptool db spl_loader.bin

22:34 <mmind00> - rkdeveloptool wl 64 u-boot-rockchip.bin

22:34 <mmind00> and then you have a new bootloader on your board

22:35 <mmind00> in maskrom mode the serial console will be empty, but when the spl_loader binary has loaded you should see some output

23:13 <shawnguo> arnd: did you get a chance to look at this fix PR - https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20240206151744.2459-1-shawnguo2@yeah.net/ ?
