06:22 <MoeIcenowy> somlo: my linux-on-litex-openc906 does automatic DT generation with initrd into consideration

06:23 <MoeIcenowy> and for your initrd, do you use things like dracut?

06:24 <MoeIcenowy> this kind of things could generate a multi-section initramfs

15:29 <somlo> well, if I'm not mistaken, you calculate INITRD_END by adding the size of your initrd file to INITRD_START: https://github.com/Icenowy/linux-on-litex-openc906/blob/master/Makefile#L32

15:29 <somlo> the problem I'm running into is that linux doesn't like that, at least not when my initrd is simply a gzip-ed cpio archive (not the fancy multi-layer voodoo that dracut does)

15:31 <somlo> here: https://github.com/litex-hub/linux-on-litex-vexriscv/issues/248#issuecomment-1367489940 is what happens, and I can't explain the difference between what linux's initrd decompressor expects and the actual gzip-ed file size itself

15:32 <somlo> I vaguely recall it not liking the exact *dracut* initrd file size either, but I'll have a chance to test that again and confirm/deny later today :)
