| 00:03.57 | mnemoc | a friend still uses one iirc |
| 00:16.35 | naobsd | mnemoc: are you trying to use Android/CM built from source on mele? |
| 00:19.14 | naobsd | GB rom and ICS rom are more different, not only partition layout |
| 00:19.38 | mnemoc | naobsd: yes. quarkx tree + turl's device/allwinner/common + dummy device/allwinner/mele-a1000 |
| 00:20.10 | naobsd | if you are using stock nanda(bootloader) partition, it should be based on GB. all source tree is for ICS |
| 00:20.20 | mnemoc | next I need to find how to get out/target/product/mele-a1000/obj/lib/libMali.so copied |
| 00:20.27 | naobsd | at first GB has a kernel instead of u-boot in nanda |
| 00:21.39 | mnemoc | so I better update my mele to the official beta ics first? |

| 00:23.06 | naobsd | mnemoc: probably yes. I have some knowledge to run CM on GB based device, but I don't have enough time to tell about it :( |
| 00:23.29 | mnemoc | naobsd: don't worry. I need to go to sleep anyway ;-) |
| 00:24.01 | naobsd | boot/recovery partition is ext4 file system on GB <-> boot/recovery partition is raw partition which has boot.img/recovery.img built by mkbootimg on ICS |
| 00:24.08 | mnemoc | ManoftheSea: I would be really happy with something like: http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm/544613494-Free-shipping-HB-laptop-12-inch-1-6GHZ-Full-black-2GB-320GB-WIFI-webcam-Lan-3-wholesalers.html but with eoma68 slot |
| 00:24.37 | mnemoc | naobsd: uh |
| 00:26.11 | naobsd | but these difference is just a configuration... it can be changed |
| 00:26.32 | naobsd | fastest way is using nanda from ICS rom :) |

| 00:32.15 | penguin42 | wonders if it uses a pencil |
| 00:32.25 | naobsd | mnemoc: to install built image/file, there are 2 way, make whole rom image for livesuit/phoenix, or using recovery(ramdisk standalone system) to replace files in partitions on nand |
| 00:32.57 | ManoftheSea | I see. |
| 00:33.02 | mnemoc | naobsd: this time I have no problem in wiping the nand out |
| 00:33.07 | ManoftheSea | No, I was thinking more like... a box. |
| 00:33.23 | ManoftheSea | a big rectangular prism, with a place for hinges. |
| 00:33.32 | ManoftheSea | That can be 3d printed. |
| 00:34.00 | ManoftheSea | more "fold-up computer" than "commercial laptop" |
| 00:34.19 | ManoftheSea | but then... I suppose I'd need a reference laptop mainboard first... |
| 00:34.27 | ManoftheSea | Kicad can do that... |

| 10:54.35 | hno | All other DRAM parameters have expected values. |
| 10:54.52 | hno | mnemoc, which release is this script.bin from? |

| 11:07.11 | naobsd | FES_1 codes and/or data written to 0x7010 are for DRAM initialization? |

| 11:08.39 | hno | naobsd, yes, 0x7070 seems to be DRAM parameters. |
| 11:09.09 | hno | EMR1 is "Extended Mode Register 1". There is 4 of them, and Allwinner provides the data to put there.. |
| 11:10.55 | mnemoc | I bought this lyf1 the very first day an allwinner a10 tablet appeared in china shops... so my script.bin is probably the oldest |

| 11:14.22 | naobsd | what happen if pushing u-boot just after DRAM initialization |

| 11:23.25 | hno | naobsd, boot1 loads boot.axf. |
| 11:24.05 | hno | BROM loads BOOT0 into SRAM. BOOT0 configured DRAM and loads BOOT1 into SDRAM, which then loads boot.axf ELF file from NANDA FAT partition. |
| 11:24.19 | hno | s/ed/es/ |
| 11:26.08 | naobsd | so there is some area before nanda... |
| 11:29.55 | naobsd | [mbr] size = 1024 in COMMON _SYS_CONFIG000000...? |
| 11:30.12 | hno | naobsd, yes, boot0/boot1 is loaded raw. |
| 11:30.22 | hno | same on sdcard btw. |

| 11:37.18 | naobsd | can u-boot access whole nand? |
| 11:38.26 | lundman | didnt think uboot saw nand at all |
| 11:38.51 | mnemoc | the mmc branch doesn't, but there is code for that in the other branch |
| 11:39.31 | mnemoc | but reimplimenting the nand using mtd is the most reasonable step |
| 11:39.33 | mnemoc | imo |
| 11:40.07 | mnemoc | it would reduce a lot the code to maintain |
| 11:42.51 | hno | naobsd, u-boot with NAND driver sees the NAND, but it's an odd NAND driver. I know there is code for raw unpartitioned NAND access but not sure if it't used. |
| 11:43.08 | naobsd | I'm thinking which is easy to understand NAND flashing protocol over USB, or understand u-boot NAND code ;) |
| 11:43.28 | hno | naobsd, depends on your goal. |
| 11:43.48 | naobsd | hehe |
| 11:43.55 | hno | nand flashing in itself is no mystery. |
| 11:45.04 | hno | nand controller is a bit of a mystert. It's far from what you normally see and why it's not an mtd. |
| 11:45.50 | naobsd | I understand partition name is used as source in stock u-boot like as "nand read 40007800 boot" |
| 11:48.30 | hno | you can also use offset. |

| 15:09.23 | mnemoc | err |
| 15:16.36 | hno | looks trivial to add raw nand support to u-boot. But the current u-boot sunxi nand driver is a mess. |
| 15:17.16 | hno | the code for reading/writing raw nand blocks is there, but not used. |
| 15:18.52 | DonkeyHotei | how do you think it should be approached? |

| 15:41.27 | hno | DonkeyHotei, a good first step is adding raw nand support to u-boot. |
| 15:42.24 | hno | DonkeyHotei, kernel & uboot nand code is mostly the same OS-independent NAND driver. There is some different glue layers for each. |
| 15:42.48 | mnemoc | can we extend standard mtd/nand in u-boot for that? or mtd/nand and allwinner/nand are incompatible? |
| 15:42.51 | DonkeyHotei | spl uboot probably isn't really missing anything else |
| 15:43.20 | hno | mnemoc, allwinner/nand is not mtd at all, at least not in current incarnation. |
| 15:44.09 | hno | will hack in read.oob support to see what the boot area of the nand really looks like. |
| 15:45.07 | mnemoc | it would be awesome if we could make a backward compatible mtd/nand_sunxi driver... |
| 15:46.32 | mnemoc | but if it's not possible, $things happen |
| 15:48.22 | hno | mnemoc, currently the plan is to reuse existing driver. To many unknowns to try to migrate to mtd. If we migrate to mtd then that's a mtd driver and you can choose which to use. |
| 15:48.47 | mnemoc | hno: good idea |
| 15:49.04 | hno | just need to figure out how to access boot area. It's not exposed by either kernel or uboot nand interfaces. |
| 15:49.26 | hno | well, I do know how to, just need to add the user interface. |
| 15:49.50 | hno | the code for reading/writing nand is all there in the nand driver. |
| 15:51.04 | hno | using plenty of 0xHH constants in commands sent to the NAND controller, and code comments copy-pasted wildly and 99% misleading. |
| 15:51.38 | ManoftheSea | 0xHH? |
| 15:54.55 | hno | 0xE3 and the like. |
| 15:55.29 | ManoftheSea | oh, I see. |
| 16:11.39 | hno | Argh.. no fastboot can not access it either. Layers of layers of incompatibility. |
| 16:15.52 | DonkeyHotei | :( |
| 16:16.05 | DonkeyHotei | we need a linux livesuit |
| 16:16.16 | DonkeyHotei | preferably in source form |

| 18:30.19 | hno | mnemoc, I have no problem to read the MBR. Hunting for boot0/boot1. |
| 18:30.45 | hno | those are not accessible via the logical block layer (LML_* functions). |
| 18:32.54 | hno | need to address the NAND directly without indirection, PHY_PageRead and similar functions. |
| 18:37.38 | hno | DonkeyHotei, no plans for a livesuit, but there will be tools for USB booting. And kernel drivers will be extended to provide full NAND access. |
| 18:38.11 | hno | should be easy for someone to script a livesuit ontop of that. |
| 18:38.34 | mnemoc | is it possible they live _after_ the local block layer? |
| 18:39.04 | mnemoc | or the BROM can jump that far? |
| 18:39.08 | mnemoc | can't |
| 18:39.14 | DonkeyHotei | ahh |
| 18:40.45 | hno | mnemoc, boot0/boot1 live in the very first blocks of the NAND. |
| 18:41.17 | mnemoc | ok |
| 18:41.19 | hno | where blocks == NAND blocks. |

| 20:11.38 | hno | but probably need a layer or two more to route the GPIO. Not many pins used there. |
