Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

Updated last post with devuan image boot. Check it out.

thanks,

It seems the same for both images,
I believe that is the bootloader part only..

I am compiling a kernel with 'arasan mmc' driver..

In the devuan image you still don't pass the rainbow, right?

Yes.

humm,
The idea of a mainline kernel would be very nice, but it seems we need something more..

And if you change in 'config.txt'
kernel parameter to:
kernel=vmlinuz

You still get stuck at the rainbow?

Thanks in Advance for your help on this

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

That's correct. Do you want kernel=vmlinuz boot dump also?

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

hello uther,

when you don't have sdcard inserted it indeed complains about 'arasan-emmc0'..
but I built the driver for it in the last beta..

What is strange to me is that it indeed starts 'start4cd.elf', which is a cut down version of start4.elf..

Which means memory for GPU is low..
On previous rpi's it would work, running the bootloader and it then loading vmlinuz..
By some reason is here doesn't work..

try to encrise 'gpu_mem' in config.txt to 64.
gpu_mem=64

And see if something goes different..
I am still actively trying to find a way to boot it with mainline kernel..

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

Here's the log. We still don't have proper boot.
I'm thinking, maybe I should try with different SD card just for the sake of it?
Yeah, mainline kernel would be indeed very nice.

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

humm, yeah something is missing..

FM81, made a Image for RPi4..

tough I don't know the quality of it, nor the binaries in it..

It would be nice to test, and check if its booting, probably is, because he used a lot of raspberrypi stuff..

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

I assume the default kernel that comes in Raspbian is the '4.19.75-v7l+' ?

v8+ started shipping with 4.19.75. 4.19.93 came out for Raspbian/sid mid January. If you also have a Pi 3, i updated my guide elsewhere how to slap it on top of Ascii for Pi 3 and get it running on a Pi 4.

What is your purpose with this? Getting kernel 5.5 running? Tell me how i can help and what i need to set up.

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

hello therion23,
The idea would be to have mainline kernel running on raspberryPI4..

Initial support landed recently, now in kernel 5.6 comes thermal driver,
I just saw the commits to mainline
create mode 100644 drivers/thermal/broadcom/bcm2711_thermal.c
delete mode 100644 drivers/thermal/cpu_cooling.c
create mode 100644 drivers/thermal/cpufreq_cooling.c
create mode 100644 drivers/thermal/cpuidle_cooling.c
create mode 100644 drivers/thermal/sun8i_thermal.c

yes, also thermal driver for Allwiner H6( but I have a patch for it, in the meantime, and its applied so, no hurry )

Long Story short,
we( me and uther ), have been trying to have a server Image for RPi4, with mainline support, and trying to avoid the blob madness with RaspberryPi firmware/kernel trees..

The Last image is in this NetWork Share:
The Image is 'devuan-ascii-rpi4-arm64-0.2-beta.img.xz'

'Kernel/headers/Libc-dev' deb packages for '5.5.0' is also in the share( in the event of Success, can be copied to sdcard and installed via 'dpkg -i' )..

'/etc/default/rng-tools'
Point automatically to  '/dev/urandom'( just in case.. when we managed to boot it, we will see if a driver exists, we will change to it.. ), in the meantime..
HRNGDEVICE=/dev/urandom

'config.txt'
arm_64bit=1
kernel=bootloader.bin
total_mem=3072

'bootloader.bin':
Is the u-boot that then will load the 'vmlinuz'

'boot.cmd'
The same content as 'boot.scr', but is a text human readable file

'boot.scr'
Is the binary file uboot( 'bootloader.bin' ) will load with all the instructions to start the Linux Kernel for Raspberry Pi4( now..if it just worked would be nice )

'vmlinuz'
Is the Linux Kernel... the name contains a 'z'( vmlinuz ), but the Image is not compressed, so its a 'vmlinux' binary file (  in ARM64 is impossible to boot compressed Kernels, at least for now.. ).
So even tough the name suggests compression its a uncompressed kernel..

-------------------------------------------
The Idea..
config.txt -> bootloader.bin->uboot.scr->vmlinuz init=/sbin/init

The problem,
I don't have a RPi4,
Uther have been doing all the testing( which I am also grateful to him, for helping out on this ).

We tried to reach more colleagues( to increase the probability of Success ), but some say they cannot download the Image, other doesn't stepped in..

For what it seems the Image doesn't boot, it stops in the Rainbow( initially when hdmi is connected to monitor )..
It his needed further testing, getting the Serial uart console data to see what is happening..
Or even changing something, that we were unable to figure out..

If you, can help us out, it would be very nice
We know that the boot process in RPi4 changed, and maybe we are stuck there

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

Right - that and the talk on freenode gave me a clear view of what you are trying to do

Normally i have three day weekends, and this one starts tomorrow afternoon European time, so as soon as i get the TTL adapter playing nice with macOS, i will test and we will talk again.

Will try to be on freenode when i am actually at the desk, ok? Easier that way.

Right, sorry for being late, but let's test that over the weekend. Getting the image now, as soon as i wake up i will catch you and talk to you, ok?

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

hi tuxd3v, therion. I hope, since therion23 joined, the work wil go much faster
I've found some time and done the following on stock Raspbian:

Things that would be interesting would be,
a) If you have a serial debugger, connect to the uart, and get all the information about bootloader/boot process.
b) Find if thermal zones do exist, what temps system have..if something really out of what to be expected..
find /sys/class/thermal -name thermal_\* -exec ls -l {} \; -exec cat {}/temp \;
c) Get information about cpuinfo, and if it is correct..
'cat /proc/cpuinfo'
d) get information about swap, and system memory:
swapon -a && free -m
e) check swap quantity and algos( it should be 'lz4' )
swapon --show
find /sys/class/block -name zram\* -exec cat {}/comp_algorithm \;
f) List Loaded Modules:
lsmod

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ find /sys/class/thermal -name thermal_\* -exec ls -l {} \; -exec cat {}/temp \;
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb  8 12:04 /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0 -> ../../devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

Hey, no, for some reason i still do not get notification mails - but we will see! this time tomorrow i might have some news, had to go to a concert last night and i keep missing tux on freenode - we should work on that! hahaha

Anyway, talk soon - come on freenode if you are bored!

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

hi tuxd3v, therion. I hope, since therion23 joined, the work wil go much faster
I've found some time and done the following on stock Raspbian:

hi uther,
thanks, so they don't use zram as swap, on raspbian
they have a lot of modules that could be interesting to match with something similar in mainline

I am on freenode
some issues with my machine prevented me from 2 days, but I am recovering now

Indeed uther,
The Future of SBCs is clearly opensource and the other vendors products are aspiring to get mainline kernel support..

Lets hope that official 5.7 Kernel will bring this pach's( more than 80 patch's.. ).
In Fact this should have happened already last year( don't know why RaspberryPi Foundation is taking so long.. or why is holding back.. ).

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

Quick question: Instead of messing around with USB-to-TTL adapters with dodgy drivers, isn't it possible to just connect pins 3, 4 and 5 to 3, 5 and 4 (crossing RX and TX but keeping GND) of another Pi, using standard dupont wires?

don't know why RaspberryPi Foundation is taking so long.. or why is holding back..

They are way behind schedule, when it was released it was supposed to be able to boot from USB3, now, 7 months later, & we still don't have USB booting!

Re: Is any work planned for devuan on the raspberry pi 4?

I've managed to build an image using beowulf and kernel 4.19, which gives:

Linux devuan 4.19.108-v8+ #1298 SMP PREEMPT Fri Mar 6 18:15:51 GMT 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Used linaro 7.5.0-2019.12 and u-boot v2020.01 plus tweaked arm-sdk settings to get 4 GB.
Getting total memory (with free -b): 3937673216

Available at
http://devuan.metatem.net/dist/raspi4/k … img.xz.sha
(Remove .sha at the end for the actual image. Home server, so be kind...)
Enjoy!

I hope someone with a rpi4 tests your build
