sjg1: Thanks, so basically, can I just fdt_open_into() into the same location and just increase the size ? do I need to call fdt_pack() afterwards ?
<sjg1>
rfried: Yes you can do that, so long as there is space. You don't need to call fdt_pack() unless you want to pack

sjg1: I followed your steps, but it's not working. but this time fdtlib doesn't complain at all, it just doesn't append anything.
<rfried>
sjg1: oh... it might be adding a new string as an array, and not actually extending the string....

sjg1: working. Thanks a lot for your help.

sjg1: hey, quick question. you happen to have an rk3288/rk3399 with u-boot at-hand I could convince you to poke a bit? mine are currently in storage

hanetzer: re rk3288/3399, possibly

hanetzer: CONFIG_CONSOLE_TRUETYPE_SIZE if you use truetype fonts
<sjg1>
hanetzer: otherwise you need to change console_normal.c to include something other than video_font.h. There is a 4x6 font
<hanetzer>
sjg1: basically, I wanna see if you can `md' the iomem area that should contain the bootrom and see if its visible

just tried to build u-boot for chromebook gru-kevin but only got blank screen when booting

with alpernebbi git repo it worked few months ago

hanetzer: there used to be bedbug
<marex>
hanetzer: else, for debugging u-boot, use jtag
<hanetzer>
marex: yeh.
<hanetzer>
i've gotta wait on some 1mm ribbon cable to arrive so I can make a cable for this board's nonstandard pinout and 2mm pitch
<marex>
ah the metric non-imperial pitch :)

<hanetzer>
yee. that as mentioned, its a 2x5 header but doesn't, as far as I can tell, match any 'standard' jtag adapters :)
<hanetzer>
*that and
<marex>
hanetzer: btw order some test hooks, those generally allow you to attach to any connector within reason, then you can quickly whip up a proto-cable
<hanetzer>
I have some but they're eh.
<marex>
hanetzer: did you try looking at segger offerings ?
<hanetzer>
I just put in an order for a self-designed adapter pcb
<marex>
fun
<hanetzer>
and as mentioned, waiting on the finer ribbon to go with the finer idc headers.
<hanetzer>
should arrive monday.
<hanetzer>
pcb, who knows. oshpark says about 5d or so
<marex>
hanetzer: is that still for the settopbox ?
<marex>
the uh ... hisilicon ?
<hanetzer>
marex: same family of chips, yes.
<marex>
ha, nice
<hanetzer>
this one is a dedicated dev board, hi3516dv300
<hanetzer>
I figure, with it I can bootstrap a proper u-boot framework for the family and spring off from there to the other families :P
<hanetzer>
its all very similar in general layout.
<hanetzer>
and the vendor sdk for this chip is better/newer, if still shitty vendorware (kernel 5.10 and u-boot 2020)
<hanetzer>
I have another stb, hi3535 iirc, which has jtag test points. gonna have to get a pcbite thingus to use that
<hanetzer>
this one is fairly nice, in that it doesn't use bmc connectors for the cameras; it has a big ass 16-port poe network switch integrated, basically.
<hanetzer>
(I mean the hi3535 one; it has the switch).
<hanetzer>
this one is more or less 'meant to' go in ipcams
