I know that pivos has published lots of sources for the AMLogic in github and that amlogic actually has some code out in the wild for their VPU, whereas Allwinner aren't putting anything out for their VPU. |

| 10:26.19 | lkcl | oliv3r: look at that source code more closely. you'll find it's just the standard kernel "shim" that interfaces some shared-memory to the userspace proprietary MALI400 opengl libraries. |
| 10:26.42 | lkcl | oliv3r: AMLogic cost us a lot of money and a client, thanks to their GPL-violating NDA. |
| 10:26.53 | lkcl | we gave them a chance to make amends... and they haven't taken it. |
| 10:28.02 | lkcl | we're not interested in fighting battles; we're interested in making money. as long as there's at least one SoC vendor willing to work with us and supply product, why should we fight with any others? |
| 10:28.11 | lkcl | this is a lesson that wookie taught me. |
| 10:29.07 | Triffid_Hunter | lkcl: is there one? |
| 10:29.09 | lkcl | so anyway, you're incorrect: *neither* allwinner *nor* amlogic are providing the source code of the userspace MALI400MP opengl library, because they are *not permitted* to, by ARM. it's proprietary. to ARM. |
| 10:29.28 | lkcl | Triffid_Hunter: sorry (meep!) - one what? lots of ambiguity here :) |
| 10:29.45 | Triffid_Hunter | lkcl: one SoC vendor who wants an open toolchain enough to actually do something about it |
| 10:30.03 | lkcl | Triffid_Hunter: yes - allwinner. |
| 10:30.19 | lkcl | ok: they all release the toolchains |
| 10:30.27 | lkcl | .... for the most part :) |
| 10:30.46 | Triffid_Hunter | I've been reading that even the binary blobs for the mali are fairly useless |
| 10:31.10 | lkcl | what they all *don't* do is require that you sign a GPL-violating NDA that entirely jeapordises the products built around them even before they're designed! |
| 10:31.42 | lkcl | Triffid_Hunter: yeah... that's a global problem not just isolated to one CPU, but to all SoCs that use MALI. |
| 10:32.00 | lkcl | hence the reason why libv started http://limaproject.org |
| 10:32.12 | Triffid_Hunter | nice, like nouveau? |

| 19:32.13 | penguin42 | libv: Indeed in Intel's knights corner presentation recently they highlighted the x86 specific logic was only 2% |
| 19:32.30 | penguin42 | libv: And there's something to be said for CISC keeping your icache utilisation high |
| 19:39.11 | oliv3r | lkcl: sorr for the late response, had to leave for the day; but that sucks that they have a GPL violating NDA. I don't know the current license of their code, it probably is 'just as bad' but its on githup, meaning atleast reverse engineering it is 'a' possibility. :) |
| 19:39.11 | oliv3r | But how is their VPU tech just a shim to the mali400 gpu? I was under the strong impression that they had an actual VPU. I know the A10 claims to have one? not to mention that ARM has their own VPU IP, seperate from the mali400. I didn't know mali, in fact, could encode/decode video. |
| 19:39.26 | specing | libv: I have a Geode, works good as a router |
| 19:40.57 | oliv3r | lkcl; as for the GPU bit, yes, the gpu is mali400 stuff, no question about it; they all use it. Lima is trying to fix that. And for fighting battles; I thought it was somewhat the mission goal of rhombus, get GPL software supported hardware. A10 is working with you, and that's great, That they can't help with the mali400 I get, but what about their 'home developped' VPU? |

| 20:27.42 | techn_ | I have to pay 39e for 20/1 adsl :( |
| 20:27.55 | specing | Im on 10/2 :( |
| 20:28.11 | RaYmAn | specing: problem is - only one plug :( |
| 20:29.03 | RaYmAn | Turl: so looks like ath9k, but only 4mb flash and 32mb ram - it's only like 25$ though |
| 20:29.04 | specing | RaYmAn: get a serious router then :) |
| 20:29.16 | Turl | I have http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd |
| 20:29.35 | RaYmAn | specing: router isn't the issue |
| 20:30.18 | RaYmAn | specing: It's fiber to the condo building, then spread out over ethernet to individual condos - and there's only one usable plug in each condo |
| 20:31.05 | rm | sooo, that's what routers are for, right |
| 20:31.18 | RaYmAn | use a core2duo mac mini (running linux) as a router |
| 20:31.37 | Turl | FTTB :P |
| 20:32.19 | RaYmAn | yeh - we're changing provider soon-ish though. They'll provide gigabit fiber to each condo - probably can't get more than 90mbit then though, but at least it'll be prepared for higher (and IP-TV won't affect download speeds :P) |
| 20:33.32 | oliv3r | they actually run dual fiber here, 1 is for internet (and internet related services, like voip and IPTV). the second line is purely for analog and dvb-c television |
| 20:33.44 | RaYmAn | interesting |
| 20:33.49 | oliv3r | they have some really small optical -> analog/dvb-c converter thingie |
| 20:33.57 | RaYmAn | I guess their boxes aren't capable of gigabit |
| 20:34.03 | oliv3r | what makes it nice is, they are 'ready' for dual optical i guess |
| 20:34.18 | oliv3r | no the modems and infrastructure in this part of town does not handle gigabit |
| 20:34.25 | oliv3r | but it will, soon-ish |
| 20:34.36 | oliv3r | the new stuff in our city is now being rolled out, capable of gbit |
| 20:34.44 | oliv3r | and our fiber is 'open' |
| 20:34.59 | oliv3r | meaning several ISP's can offer you their service |
| 20:35.11 | RaYmAn | that's cool |
| 20:35.13 | oliv3r | there is one ISP (not available to me yet) that offers gbit for 99E a montttth on said line |
| 20:35.21 | RaYmAn | wow |
| 20:45.26 | penguin42 | oliv3r: Is that GPON optical ? |
| 20:47.40 | oliv3r | GPON? the two fibers entering our home is optical yes as is the modem's input |
| 20:49.42 | rm | GPON is this super-tree topology where there's over 9000 people on the same shared 3-Gbit-something line |
| 20:50.00 | rm | with fully passive splitters along the way |
| 20:50.39 | oliv3r | oh, no idea how it all technically works beyond our home. I do know there's opticla switches at the other end, and that's it :p |
| 20:50.47 | specing | I see what you did there rm |
| 20:50.48 | rm | and they promote this as FIBER OPTICS TO THE HOME and GIGABIT |
| 20:51.05 | specing | "over 9000" |
| 20:51.14 | oliv3r | ah, nah; this is Eindhoven here, you know, smartest region in the world :D |
| 20:51.26 | oliv3r | they'd loose a lot of face i guess |
| 20:52.22 | RaYmAn | I suspect all ISP's over-subscribe to some level ;) |
| 20:52.42 | rm | and it also supports Cable TV natively |
| 20:52.46 | rm | i.e. not even over IP |
| 20:52.52 | rm | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPON |
| 20:53.07 | oliv3r | i'll go read that |
| 20:53.15 | rm | my ISP just runs normal gigabit (or more?) ethernet everywhere |
| 20:53.22 | oliv3r | maybe the secondary line does that? if that is cable (analog) and digital |
| 20:53.44 | rm | oliv3r, I believe it's on a different wavelength in the same fiber (O.o) |
| 20:54.13 | oliv3r | nah, i had a tech here, that even showed me both fibers :) |
| 20:54.26 | oliv3r | (I had some issues at the beginning so had a lot of techs over) |
| 20:55.30 | oliv3r | though I would not supprised at all, if the DVB-C/Cable is 'gponed' on the other end. probably cheaper and it's all downstream anyway |
