Re: Arndale Linux Linaro Test Result (phungte@gmail.com)

by Botao Sun

+ Linaro Dev mailing list Hi Phung-Te, I don't have Samsung Arndale Octa board on my hand, haven't started testing on it. @Fathi, do you know anything about the u-boot source code for Arndale Octa? Thanks. Best Regards Botao Sun Hello Botao, I am looking for the source of u-boot for arndale-octa and couldn't find it. Your u-boot git, both stable and next only have support for arndale, not arndale-octa. I could get to the binary which worked fine: arndale-octa-saucy_server_20140323-616.img.gz Can you please point me to the source of that build. Thank you.

why is the the smp_mb() in arm64's barrier.h "dmb ish"?

by KelvinKLi＠via-alliance.com

Hi All, In arch/arm64/include/asm/barrier.h, there is the definition of smp_mb()/smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() for arm64. I noticed that all the 3 macors are using "dmb ishxx", which is only affect the cluster of the CPU executing the instruction. But in the big.LITTLE system, there will be 2 cluster. So the smp_mb()/smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() cannot affect all the CPU in the system. Is there other considerations so that smp_mb()/smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() are implemented to "only affecting inner sharable cores"? Best Regards, Kelvin K.

Fedora for AArch64 now available

by Al Stone

FYI: for those interested in Fedora, I thought I would pass on an announcement from Paul Whalen recently sent to the fedora-arm mailing list...you can now pick a remix image using the links highlighted below... Good afternoon folks, David Marlin has posted a new Aarch64 Fedora Rawhide Remix for those interested in upgrading from the F19 bootstrap image. The remix includes a lookaside repository[1] to provide a patched kernel and packages not yet built for aarch64. Instructions for downloading and using the remix have been added to the Quickstart[2] page.

[PATCH] Output format of powerdebug is messed up on Samsung Arndale Board

by Mohammad Merajul Islam Molla

Hello, This is for launchpad bug 1307896 ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-powerdebug/+bug/1307896). While displaying information about "Regulators" output becomes really messy (zig zag) on Samsung Arndale Board (Exynos 5250, Cortex A-15). It looks like the output field size "11" for printing regulator name is not enough. Some regulators have longer names. Hence proposing to increase this field size to a higher value, i.e. 25. Patch goes here - ---------------------------- diff --git a/regulator.c b/regulator.c index 9cd89fd..045cceb 100644 --- a/regulator.c +++ b/regulator.c @@ -127,7 +127,7 @@ static int regulator_display_cb(struct tree *t, void *data) if (!strlen(reg->name)) return 0; - if (asprintf(&buf, "%-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11d %-11d %-11d %-12d", + if (asprintf(&buf, "%-25s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11d %-11d %-11d %-12d", reg->name, reg->status, reg->state, reg->type, reg->num_users, reg->microvolts, reg->min_microvolts, reg->max_microvolts) < 0) @@ -147,7 +147,7 @@ static int regulator_print_header(void) char *buf; int ret; - if (asprintf(&buf, "%-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-12s", + if (asprintf(&buf, "%-25s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-11s %-12s", "Name", "Status", "State", "Type", "Users", "Microvolts", "Min u-volts", "Max u-volts") < 0) return -1; -- Thanks, -Meraj
