**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Mar 05 02:59:57 2020 Mar 05 07:38:08 ldir: it has been noted in the forum that 2.81rc1 does not crash, and it had some dnssec related segfault fixes Mar 05 07:38:26 ldir: so likely a good idea to jump to rc1 Mar 05 08:12:11 jow: ping Mar 05 08:27:14 I'm just wondering how `Package kmod-hwmon-sch5627 is missing dependencies for the following libraries: watchdog.ko` could survive for such a long time, it is broken since kernel v3.5 or so Mar 05 08:27:44 Hauke: better get rid of our kernel backports directories then ;-) Mar 05 08:28:05 it popped up while building malta/be on 5.4 Mar 05 08:28:12 build #315 of sunxi/cortexa53 is complete: Success [build successful] Build details are at http://buildbot.openwrt.org/master/images/builders/sunxi%2Fcortexa53/builds/315 Mar 05 08:31:54 jow: I'm hoping that nothing too nasty turns up with the rc and that 2.81 final is quick out of the blocks Mar 05 08:55:05 jow: I refactored the luci-app-attendedsysupgrade https://github.com/openwrt/luci/pull/3723 It works within my docker container Mar 05 08:59:47 ynezz: do you got a minute to talk about JSON? Mar 05 09:07:22 yes Mar 05 12:58:00 can anybody take care of announcing 19.07.2 and 18.06.8 ? I won't get around to it before tomorrow or sunday Mar 05 15:11:45 jow: I can try Mar 05 15:12:04 jow: I just generated the changelogs https://openwrt.org/releases/19.07/changelog-19.07.2 and https://openwrt.org/releases/18.06/changelog-18.06.8 Mar 05 15:12:43 jow: but it looks like the changelog script is not up-to-date in the openwrt-maintainer-tools git repo? it still references LEDE vs OpenWrt, etc Mar 05 18:20:18 hello - could anyone give me a hand? I'm trying to add a support for a new device but a device doesn't boot and I need some help :) Device is Asus RT-AC5300 and here is its bootlog: https://pastebin.com/EJX6qKq0 Mar 05 18:30:40 RobertP: my first idea would be to check that the method to store bad blocks (bbt vs. OOB) and compute ECC is the same in the bootloader and the kernel you run. Mar 05 18:31:25 And probably some other NAND parameters. Mar 05 18:36:03 PaulFertser: thanks for your hint ... looks like I will need to learn it first though :D Mar 05 18:39:37 RobertP: my hint might be incorrect in this specific case but in general when treating NAND one really needs those operational parameters to match. Mar 05 18:55:04 PaulFertser: even if so, I might learn a new thing :) Unless someone else has another idea ... Mar 05 19:49:53 does the ImageBuilder actually need ncurses? Isn't it only a requirement for SDK and the full build system? Mar 05 20:00:01 aparcar[m]: make menuconfig is ncurses based Mar 05 20:00:20 ldir: which is not used by the imagebuilder right? Mar 05 20:00:55 I'm not sure - i thought the IB was menu based Mar 05 20:01:26 I think I used it once years ago so I may well be confused Mar 05 20:01:59 :) Mar 05 22:29:50 ynezz: I sent version 4 of the JSON patch Mar 06 00:45:14 hmmm just under 200KB increase from 4.19 to 5.4 with ath79 Mar 06 00:45:24 I might be able to pull this off :) Mar 06 00:46:27 now I should really put some effort in porting DAP-2695 to ath79 Mar 06 00:47:24 put it on my whiteboard, that should somewhat speed up that process :P Mar 06 00:52:38 stintel: What device is that? Both of my ath79 devices are bricked with 5.4. Mar 06 00:53:06 mamarley: I just looked at the image size. my unifi ap ac pro also did not come back after flashing that image Mar 06 00:54:13 but size-wise it should be doable. image is just under 7.5MB which is close to the limit of having working jffs2 Mar 06 00:54:37 Yep, same as here. Turned it into a big bowl of Boot-Loops®. Mar 06 00:54:38 also note to self: don't buy 8MB flash devices Mar 06 00:54:50 just don Mar 06 00:56:11 derp. disable the testing kernel version and build fails Mar 06 00:56:53 I don't have serial on either device though. I guess I need to bite the bullet and crack it open. Mar 06 00:57:18 can't tftp recover it? Mar 06 00:57:37 my DAP-2695 has an RJ45 serial console, but it's not ported to ath79 yet Mar 06 00:58:18 Those are easy to recover with TFTP, but that doesn't help to figure out what went wrong. Mar 06 00:58:42 ah yes, gotcha Mar 06 00:58:46 target/linux/ath79/dts/qca9558_dlink_dap-2695-a1.dts Mar 06 00:59:03 maybe I should recover my unifi and then try this dts on my dap Mar 06 01:00:58 but as this bloody image refuses to build after simply disabling testing kernel in the config that's probably for another time Mar 06 01:05:05 my Asus MAP-AC2200 (ipq4019) didn't survive the upgrade to kernel 5.4 either - and so far the tftp recovery hasn't worked either (will need a quiet evening to open it up and attach a serial console) Mar 06 01:06:25 pkgadd: Did yours bootloop too or something else? Mar 06 01:07:13 mamarley: without serial console access, I can't really tell what happened - but it's not accessible (nothing on ethernet, no wlan) Mar 06 01:08:13 gpio-button-hotplug fails with FATAL: parse error in symbol dump file Mar 06 01:08:14 wtf Mar 06 01:10:01 mamarley: just a single fancy multi-coloured LED, which (at least when running OpenWrt) doesn't distinguish between modes of operation (just going through all the colours, wether it's booting or fully booted up) Mar 06 01:15:15 I'll see if I can get a chance to open up my UAP-LR this weekend. Mar 06 01:16:16 I have very little as far as means of attaching the leads. Mar 06 01:16:45 yep, I hope to find time over the weekend as well - hopefully, if not I might have to post-pone looking into it for longer Mar 06 01:23:49 meh, is there no factory image for unifi ap ac pro :/ Mar 06 01:34:31 stintel: The sysupgrade image works fine (at least for flashing from the stock ROM). Mar 06 01:34:45 I haven't been able to TFTP recover directly to OpenWRT. Mar 06 01:41:38 mamarley: slightly annoying ;) Mar 06 01:42:11 newest stock is lede 17.01 based, cannot install ipk. fortunately you can unpack ipk's easily and copy the mtd binary Mar 06 01:43:20 stintel: I've got an image of 3.7.58, which contains mtd already and can be used to install OpenWRT. Mar 06 01:45:33 But it is definitely good to know that mtd can be copied in, in case I ever lose that image. Mar 06 01:47:40 mamarley: I don't have any stock ubnt images. they're behind an eula-wall which I refused to accept Mar 06 01:48:04 so I googled the filename instead Mar 06 01:48:18 not the most secure thing to do, I know Mar 06 01:48:34 Hmm, interesting. I don't seem to remember accepting a EULA, but it has been a very long time since I downloaded those images, so who knows. Mar 06 01:49:39 they have since some time. I remember asking for some sources, they redirected me to their community to ask a staff member there, signing up there also requires you to accept some crap Mar 06 01:50:22 I'm not a lawyer and I don't want to pay one either just to understand whatever crap I can possibly get myself into by accepting their junk Mar 06 01:51:14 finally recovered the unifi, time for bed now as it's almost 4AM Mar 06 02:18:10 One tiny problem: I can't find my dang serial adapter… Mar 06 02:20:54 no rpi or similar at hand? Mar 06 02:25:03 I've got one of those, but it is in "production" and I can't just start soldering on it willynilly. Mar 06 02:25:03 Luckily, I did just find my adapter though. And even more luckily, both it and the UAP-LR have nice header connectors that will fit floppy drive power connectors, so by wiring three of those together I should be able to make it work without soldering. Mar 06 02:25:11 Which is good, because I both hate and suck at soldering. Mar 06 02:28:28 decent soldering station helps ;) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 06 03:00:02 2020
