| 00:24.32 | lundman | but then I'm working with zfs right now :) |
| 00:24.42 | ManoftheSea | that sounds... incorrect |
| 00:25.08 | lundman | spl is the thing with uboot and early code |
| 00:25.30 | mnemoc | stands for Second Program Loader |

| 06:54.09 | lundman | zfs create -V 1G -o compression=on -o dedup=on pool/swap :) |
| 06:54.31 | Turl | swap dedupe? o.O |
| 06:54.57 | lundman | you know you'll be the cool kid! |
| 06:55.24 | Turl | lundman: how stable is that thing for everyday usage? |
| 06:55.34 | Turl | with IO heavy loads? |
| 06:55.38 | lundman | I fixed the ARM port 2 days ago |
| 06:55.50 | lundman | so, since then I've compiled the kernel 9 times :) |
| 06:55.58 | Turl | amd64, nothing too fancy |
| 06:56.02 | lundman | so, about '9 time kernel compile' stable |
| 06:56.13 | lundman | if you are talking the 64bit? yeah its stable |
| 06:56.24 | lundman | most of my colleagues have changed home NAS to use ZOL |
| 06:57.00 | lundman | largest computer in the world run ZOL, of course, they ported zfs because ext4 can't go that large:) |
| 06:57.11 | Turl | lundman: my 'unit of load' is equivalent to ~30 kernel recompilations though :) |
| 06:57.40 | lundman | yeah on intel 64, i wouldnt hesitate to use it |
| 06:57.51 | lundman | on ARM, I only just got it running smooth |
| 06:58.11 | lundman | actually, a lot of distros have it now, you can apt-get |
| 06:58.38 | Turl | is it a FUSE fs or "native"? |
| 06:59.08 | lundman | native |
| 06:59.17 | lundman | http://zfsonlinux.org/ |
| 06:59.36 | lundman | they made SPL (solaris porting layer) first, then the zfs are the same as Suns |
| 06:59.37 | jelly-home | it'd have to be distributed as source, built by dkms on similar on the fly |
| 06:59.37 | Turl | might need to move my OS to it when I move disks then |
| 06:59.40 | lundman | really really good way to do it |
| 06:59.43 | Turl | shouldn't be too far in the future |
| 06:59.50 | lundman | jelly: nah |
| 07:00.27 | jelly-home | lundman: which distro has the opinion that licensing is not an issue? |
| 07:00.39 | Turl | The result of this will be two source rpm packages... Yes, source rpm packages. Currently, deb style packages are built by first creating rpm packages and then converting them to deb packages using alien. |
| 07:00.41 | Turl | bwahaha |
| 07:00.46 | Turl | seriously? :| |
| 07:00.50 | lundman | you can't ship the kernel with it, true. but as extra module? none of them have issues |
| 07:01.04 | Turl | licensing issue? what's it? |
| 07:01.12 | lundman | CDDL vs GNU |
| 07:01.23 | Turl | CCwhat? |
| 07:01.28 | lundman | i love how many people go "oh zfs, licensing issues" and then run binary puke from nvidia |
| 07:01.31 | lundman | sighs |
| 07:01.46 | Turl | I don't :P all my stuff is intel |
| 07:01.53 | jelly-home | run is less important than distribute |
| 07:02.07 | jelly-home | lundman: and nvidia explicitely allows redistribution |
| 07:02.37 | lundman | aaanyhoo, its there, its native, it runs very well, and debian ubuntu etc has it in repo |
| 07:02.47 | jelly-home | lundman: debian does not |
| 07:02.55 | jelly-home | just looked |
| 07:03.08 | lundman | brian mentioned it in the zfsday speech |
| 07:03.23 | lundman | ah, ok debian users just need to point the repo to them and say install |
| 07:03.25 | lundman | ok, not quite the same |
| 07:03.32 | lundman | but just as easy |
| 07:04.28 | Turl | lundman: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?item=linux_kqzfs_benchmarks&num=4&page=article slow? :P |
| 07:04.47 | lundman | 2010? |
| 07:04.51 | jelly-home | phoronix? |
| 07:04.53 | lundman | it wasnt even out in 2010? |
| 07:05.11 | lundman | also, that is fuse version |
| 07:05.12 | Turl | yeah, phoronix :P doesn't mean much really |
| 07:05.14 | lundman | of course that is slow |
| 07:05.24 | Turl | lundman: nah, it's the native one |
| 07:05.31 | Turl | lundman: fuse one is benchmarked too and obviously slow |
| 07:05.41 | Turl | 20 vs 100MB/s |
| 07:06.31 | lundman | odd, the posix layer was ported to zfs in feb 2011 |
| 07:07.07 | jelly-home | Turl: kq zfs was a different kernel port |
| 07:07.08 | lundman | but either way, it wouldnt surprise me if it is still slower than ext4. only just been ported, tweaking is next |
| 07:08.25 | lundman | http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_zfs_june2012&num=1 |
| 07:08.28 | lundman | maybe that one> |
| 07:09.42 | Turl | maybe I'll install Debian GNU/kFreeBSD |
| 07:10.53 | lundman | anyway, I'm still aiming for my target of Android on mele running on ZFS :) |
| 07:10.59 | lundman | be nice if it was JB |
| 07:22.41 | Turl | lundman: so much hype but it doesn't even build :x http://paste.debian.net/199363/ |

| 07:24.45 | lundman | although, who turned on Werror |
| 07:25.56 | Turl | lundman: apparently it broke on .39 |

| 07:27.37 | lundman | you run 3.6.1 |
| 07:27.50 | Turl | the build error happened first on .39 |
| 07:29.23 | lundman | never tried with package system, I get kernel sources to build my kernel, then download and build spl/zfs myself |
| 07:29.29 | lundman | actually from github, since I do patches |
| 07:30.06 | lundman | I have 3.4.6 3.0.36 2.6.32.9 kernels |

| 11:47.07 | mnemoc | ZaEarl: reference? |
| 11:47.17 | ZaEarl | several factories |
| 11:47.39 | mnemoc | nothing url-able? |

| 11:48.31 | lundman | any kind of details? model? name? cores? |
| 11:48.38 | mnemoc | sun6i :p |
| 11:48.45 | ZaEarl | very few details, but it sounds like it will put Allwinner back on top. |
| 11:49.05 | ZaEarl | 4 cpu/8 gpu |
| 11:49.18 | mnemoc | the previous rumor I saw pointed to a quad core cortex-a7 |
| 11:49.22 | lundman | that would be enough for mediaplayer |
| 11:49.39 | ZaEarl | yes quad a7 |
| 11:50.02 | mnemoc | still mali? |
| 11:50.15 | ZaEarl | didnt see |
| 11:50.24 | mnemoc | it would suck if they switch |
| 11:50.30 | ZaEarl | is there an 8 core mali? |
| 11:50.36 | lundman | it would suck if they stayed :) |
| 11:51.25 | mnemoc | mali is currently the less closed GPU |
| 11:51.43 | mnemoc | iirc in the mali600 family there are such beasts |
| 11:53.08 | mnemoc | also there was a sightly related post in arm's blog about their collaboration while the mali600s were been announced |
| 11:53.23 | mnemoc | not explicit connection but the same week |

| 11:54.10 | ZaEarl | or t628 http://www.arm.com/products/multimedia/mali-graphics-hardware/mali-t628.php |
| 11:54.40 | lundman | yep, we'll wait for more info from you :) |
| 11:54.46 | mnemoc | if they pick cortex-a7 they'll also go for a more mobile/less power consumption gpu |
| 11:55.20 | lundman | I'm hoping for JB so we can get real audio |
| 11:55.27 | lundman | otherwise its not a mediaplayer :) |
| 11:55.40 | ZaEarl | they said eta end of the month, but that's probably optimistic. |
| 11:55.41 | mnemoc | tried Turl's CM10? |
| 11:55.51 | lundman | have not, he's not sharing |
| 11:56.27 | mnemoc | not sharing? https://github.com/allwinner-dev-team |

| 12:00.36 | mnemoc | until tom left AW I hoped I would be able to buy a sun6i devkit eventually :< |
| 12:00.49 | ozone | It takes a little bit more time than expected. We are not familiar with xbmc and the community is not familiar with our chipset. Please kindly wait and you shall be satisfied one day. Sorry for keeping the community wait. |
| 12:00.58 | mnemoc | a major contributor who doesn't care to share |
| 12:01.05 | mnemoc | or work in public |
| 12:01.19 | ozone | and why cedarX is so closed : |
| 12:01.29 | ozone | Cedarx is one of the most outstanding self-developed technology of Allwinner and we prefer to open it in lib but not source code due to commercial reason. |
| 12:01.33 | mnemoc | i understand AW, I don't understnad gimli |
| 12:01.44 | mnemoc | </rant> |

| 12:20.26 | mnemoc | so i assume it true |

| 12:30.59 | oliv3r | oh, that is amazing, but I guess the 'building' part is almost done then |
| 12:31.10 | mnemoc | the second would cost 100k rmb so unlike to build it farther :p |
| 12:31.22 | mnemoc | unlikely* |
| 12:32.01 | oliv3r | ffs, stupid device won't boot into CWM :S |
| 12:32.36 | mnemoc | be sure to use the right u-boot/spl and right script.bin |
| 12:33.09 | oliv3r | i flashed a recovery.img into nang. the thing is, sometimes it appears to work, sometimes not |
| 12:33.10 | ZaEarl | booting to recovery is dependant on the right script.bin |
| 12:33.16 | oliv3r | it just refuses to boot CWM and boots normally |
| 12:33.34 | oliv3r | but then other times, it just boots fine |
| 12:33.38 | oliv3r | (into CWM)* |
| 12:34.57 | hno | oliv3r, the "button at boot for recovery" is Allwinner u-boot. |
| 12:35.00 | ZaEarl | I'd say make sure no cables/charger are attached |
| 12:35.41 | oliv3r | now that is a golden tip |
| 12:35.57 | oliv3r | i think that may be it |
| 12:36.11 | oliv3r | but, adb reboot recovery fails the same way (but has worked fine earlier today) |
| 12:36.22 | hno | actually there is something in allwinner boot1 as well, but only used for older android. |
| 12:36.46 | oliv3r | zaearl you are my hero :p |
| 12:37.49 | ZaEarl | yw |
| 12:38.02 | oliv3r | i do press volume+ and - cause i dont' know which one it is :p its supposed to be volume-; but they swapped volume keys. when I use the original stock firmware 4.0.3, vol- is vol-, but in 4.0.4 it is swapped. (they supply livesuit images as 'updates'); |
| 12:39.56 | ZaEarl | find the script.bin you like, and keep it around for when the new livesuit image has a bad one. |
| 12:41.01 | ZaEarl | whoever builds those script.bins is pretty sloppy. |
| 12:42.41 | oliv3r | i'm not that far into a10 hacking yet |
| 12:42.54 | oliv3r | ideally, i should make my own! :p |
| 12:43.30 | ZaEarl | easy to do |

| 14:10.18 | oliv3r | FEL = DFU? |
| 14:10.41 | oliv3r | just wondering cause the pc didn't recoginze the PC |
| 14:11.01 | mnemoc | FEL is a low level usb recovery mode. if you plug it to a computer you'll see a device listed |
| 14:11.28 | oliv3r | hmm, livesuit didn't detect it |
| 14:12.25 | oliv3r | anyway, lots to learn even still :D |
| 14:12.59 | mnemoc | :) |
| 14:13.44 | oliv3r | so FEL is used to write live images right? |
| 14:14.06 | oliv3r | i did try to put it into livesuite writ emode (vol- + power button smashing), but only got some device error USB errors |
| 14:14.08 | mnemoc | to read, write and call memory |
| 14:14.24 | oliv3r | ah, so FEL is even lower then livesuit image writing? |
| 14:14.47 | mnemoc | livesuit uses it to push it's install and the data for it |
| 14:14.52 | mnemoc | installer* |
| 14:15.03 | oliv3r | ah, strange that livesuit didn't detect it |
| 14:16.24 | mnemoc | try with `./fel ver` |

| 14:42.00 | mnemoc | it's not a buildroot-only thing |
| 14:43.26 | hipboi | ok |
| 14:43.32 | xxiao | ubuntu, debian, oe, now buildroot, really good |
| 14:43.53 | hipboi | i was confused of [[livesuite]] [[livesuite image]] |
| 14:44.20 | mnemoc | the first is about the app the second about the image format |
| 14:44.22 | xxiao | only missing one is openwrt |

| 14:45.43 | mnemoc | yes, sorry. forgot |
| 14:46.27 | xxiao | android-debian-ubuntu-buildroot-oe, openwrt is nice but i don't think A10 is for network appliance anyway |
| 14:46.39 | xxiao | using oe daily is a pain, build is still very slow |
| 14:46.51 | xxiao | even slower than android |
| 14:48.05 | xxiao | hipboi: will next allwinner chip carry pcie? |
| 14:48.12 | mnemoc | xxiao: can you try to convince cnxsoft to give us access to the monster build server he got for building the nightlies? we can then automate buildroot and oe images too |

| 14:53.44 | mnemoc | *cough* |
| 14:54.13 | Turl | xxiao: yeah, i7s cost quite a while :x wallet is now dry-ish :p |
| 14:54.40 | mnemoc | has a humble amd e350 and doesn't need more |
| 14:54.44 | xxiao | actually if someone can estimate the montly build cost on aws i can try to set up a build machine |
| 14:54.55 | xxiao | if it's not too expensive, my free tier ends this month |
| 14:55.12 | Turl | xxiao: it costs quite a bit from what I heard |
| 14:56.00 | Turl | it was discussed once for CM, but it ended being a huge bill nobody was going to be able to pay |
| 14:56.04 | xxiao | it's easy for me to build on my i7 actually, but push the binaries upstream is slow, cable modem, 200kbps-ish |
| 14:56.22 | Turl | I can up at .75Mb/s |
| 14:57.03 | ZaEarl | that's plenty for a nightly |
| 14:57.36 | Turl | (notice the period) |
| 14:57.46 | mnemoc | Turl: for sharing the images you can also use linux-sunxi.org's server |
| 14:57.48 | ZaEarl | as long as you have somewhere to push them to |
| 14:57.56 | mnemoc | Turl: but build them somewhere else |
| 14:58.03 | Turl | mnemoc: yeah |
| 14:59.06 | xxiao | tested again, 100KB, 800kbps |
| 14:59.25 | mnemoc | xxiao: rsync rules :p |
| 14:59.48 | Turl | +1 |
| 14:59.49 | xxiao | but if you push a few new binaries nightly, i don't think rsync helps |
| 14:59.51 | ZaEarl | that's what, a 20 minute upload? |
| 15:00.30 | Turl | ZaEarl: for android? yeah (130 MB) / (0.75 (Mb / s)) = 23.1111111 minutes |
| 15:00.43 | mnemoc | sounds affordable ;-) |
| 15:01.13 | xxiao | let me explore it |
| 15:01.49 | xxiao | kick it off before going to bed, init 0 after the upload is done, should be fine |
| 15:02.11 | mnemoc | having now livesuit for linux the idea of having JB images is even more interesting |
| 15:02.17 | specing | echo mem > /sys/power/state |
| 15:02.52 | ZaEarl | how's acceleration for JB? is cedar working? |
| 15:03.50 | mnemoc | decoding yes, encoding no |
| 15:03.58 | mnemoc | thanks to Quarx |
| 15:04.24 | ZaEarl | excellent, decoding is by far more important |
| 15:04.39 | mnemoc | no encoding means no camera |
| 15:04.47 | mnemoc | but who cares about crappy cameras anywya |
| 15:05.41 | ZaEarl | cedar does the encoding even for still photos? |
| 15:06.03 | xxiao | mnemoc: just curious if cnxsoft is doing nightly build, what else do we need other than its stuff? |
| 15:06.03 | mnemoc | don't know |
| 15:06.35 | ZaEarl | I would like to take photos. |
| 15:06.43 | mnemoc | ZaEarl: Turl knows |
| 15:07.17 | mnemoc | xxiao: problem is cnxsoft isn't active here so he doesn't know when to fix his scripts. and also doesn't use the donated machine "enough" :) |
| 15:07.49 | mnemoc | xxiao: currently all "nightly"s are broken, but of outdated generation scripts |
| 15:07.58 | mnemoc | s/but/because/ |
| 15:08.16 | xxiao | mnemoc: i see |
| 15:08.36 | mnemoc | we need someone active here to take control over that |
| 15:08.53 | xxiao | that is you :) |
| 15:08.55 | mnemoc | or at least someone to take care of updating the scripts and sending pull requests |
| 15:08.58 | mnemoc | nah |
| 15:09.29 | mnemoc | I'm already overwelmed by my current sunxi "responsibilities" to add more :< |

| 19:17.05 | oliv3r | i have 2 livesuit images, one for 4.0.3 and one for 4.0.4; both from manufacturer |
| 19:17.20 | oliv3r | both work fine |
| 19:17.42 | hno | mnemoc, a default branch with only a README telling the repository have moved ought to get most peoples attention. |
| 19:18.06 | mnemoc | hno: good idea |
| 19:18.24 | oliv3r | i've downloaded christian troy's CM10 (and 9 too) archives |
| 19:18.50 | mnemoc | oliv3r: prefer Turl's repo |
| 19:18.56 | oliv3r | 4and installed them. both work fine when using 4.0.3 as 'base' (but wiping everything in CWM), but not in 4.0.4 |
| 19:19.11 | oliv3r | deff gonna try that |
| 19:19.30 | hno | dont's understand a squat of what oliv3r is doing. |
| 19:19.49 | oliv3r | i flashed the 4.0.4 full image |
| 19:20.00 | oliv3r | then installed CWM and CM10 |
| 19:20.25 | oliv3r | but it won't 'boot', bootanimation keeps looping, i can login, but the rom doesn't have root at that stage, so can't even do a dmesg to debug |
| 19:20.47 | Turl | forgot to wipe data? :P |
| 19:20.55 | oliv3r | what I don't get, even though i use the stock images as base, then format and reinstall CM10 (or 9) what can be IN the stock image to cause errors |
| 19:20.58 | oliv3r | lol i'll double check |
| 19:21.33 | hno | mnemoc, I should probably push stable u-boot version there, when there is one.. |
| 19:21.34 | oliv3r | i wipe data, cache, dalvik cache |
| 19:22.02 | Turl | "wipe data/factory reset" does all that on one hit :) |
| 19:22.30 | oliv3r | then i deffo didi that |
| 19:22.42 | hno | Slighlty disappointed howver. Not a single board submission response to my arm-netbook mail. |
| 19:22.44 | oliv3r | can you link me your repo/zip? |
| 19:22.47 | Turl | oliv3r: tried 'adb logcat' to see why isn't it booting? |

| 19:23.41 | oliv3r | still, when wiping /system /data and the caches, install CWM; what could else cause boot failures? |
| 19:23.48 | mnemoc | at least you didn't paste one of your tabs with pr0n |

| 19:24.53 | Turl | it's pretty obvious to see what's wrong when running logcat |
| 19:25.00 | oliv3r | oh yeah |
| 19:25.44 | hno | mnemoc, didn't you have some A10 tablet? |
| 19:26.31 | mnemoc | hno: 3. but none is "mine" and I kind of forgot about them |
| 19:27.11 | hno | and they are sufficiently old so script.bin should have the data we need. |
| 19:27.30 | mnemoc | yes, very likely |
| 19:28.06 | hno | the change came with release of a13. |
| 19:29.08 | mnemoc | getting boot1 from a tablet is not a trivial thing |
| 19:29.21 | mnemoc | i suppose it scares people |
| 19:29.33 | mnemoc | (it scares me) |
| 19:29.35 | techn | hno: MID A10 tablet .fex config dram params are same as for mele_a1000.. MID A13 tablet's .fex file showed sligtly different params that olinuxo_a13.. I applied them and A13 tablet is booting with quite good success rate |
| 19:29.35 | oliv3r | 123what about etxracting it from a liveimage? |
| 19:30.10 | hno | ol1ver, livesuit detects the parameters while flashing the NAND. |
| 19:30.18 | oliv3r | :S |
| 19:30.48 | mnemoc | hno: having u-boot stable for the "supported devices" it might be a good idea to get a `fel` based tool to extract it |
