**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Jul 25 02:59:57 2019 Jul 25 10:33:33 julieng: I think that xen doesn't use interrupt-parent property for gic, but Linux uses it find the root intc parent Jul 25 10:43:25 I am a bit confused. The GIC controller should be the root intc, no? Jul 25 10:43:28 sstabellini: drhunter[m] ^ Jul 25 11:22:50 julieng: yes, so, and it has itself as a parent Jul 25 11:23:53 so, in Linux if they see that a gic has itself as a parent they understand that this is a root node Jul 25 11:31:44 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/of/irq.c#L511 Jul 25 11:39:08 embden_new[m]: What does the host DT node for the GIC looks like. Does it contain an "interrupt-parent" property? Jul 25 11:42:41 yes julieng Jul 25 11:51:54 So, I added the interrupt-parent node and Linux boots way much further with some mistakes. And it seems that interrupt controller inheritance now wokrs right julieng Jul 25 11:51:56 Jul 25 11:52:30 This is the dom0 output: https://pastebin.com/FXPuxQ1t Jul 25 11:54:35 I need to work with some local OS stuff - somehow it is not that easy to work with a direct intrernet connection to bb-x15 (some avahi daemon kills it). I will be back to the issue a bit later. Jul 25 12:56:46 embden_new[m]: How do you access the console today? Is it via serial? Jul 25 14:32:26 https://youtu.be/MuZQJMEVmpw Jul 25 16:27:29 julieng: yes, setial Jul 25 16:27:38 serial Jul 25 16:29:03 And uart3 is enabled Jul 25 16:29:26 (its softreset fails in the log) Jul 25 16:57:24 embden_new[m]: So what's the network connection you mention? Are you accessing the board remotely? Jul 25 17:00:44 julieng: I am using tftpboot so I connect to the host via ethernet. And time-to-time this ethernet connection doesn't work because NetworkManager for some reason disables it automatically. Jul 25 17:07:08 do you mean that your Host PC is disabling tftp access from time to time? Jul 25 17:34:44 drhunter: no, host pc just close an ethernet connection. Because NetworkManager automates network activity Jul 25 17:53:57 embden_new[m]: are you serving DHCP? Jul 25 17:54:13 NetworkManager will get upset if it doesn't receive a DHCP reply. Jul 25 17:54:22 alternatively, disable and use static addresses Jul 25 17:55:47 ds2: no, I use static addresses. it just takes some time to establish connection (NM turn on/off connection several times before tftp data send) Jul 25 17:58:48 embden_new[m]: you will need to disable network manager then... I have the same problem when I do that Jul 25 18:02:41 ds2: it was so much easier 10 years ago...but I can do this with the NM but I can't use wi-fi at the same time. I think it's ok Jul 25 18:14:43 embden_new[m}:I am in total and complete agreement. It was so simple - a few ifconfig lines plus iwconfig and everything is good. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Jul 26 02:59:59 2019
