bodhi,

the fans are running fine now.
at uboot they lowered to low/normal speed. :)

no changes when booting into debian, still running normal/low speed after login.

NIC is physically connected at the promt.

not sure what I was suppose to look for regarding SPI behavior.

Cool!

Did you SSH in without problem? I saw the network is up, just want to confirm.

SPI envs still has the same problem we've been seeing. But using uEnv.txt we can live with that for now.

=======

The fan probing still failed in kernel, so we you cannot control the speed. I think I need to look at the DTS again. We know now for sure which GPIOs are for the fan in this board because the new u-boot successfully set it to medium speed.


=======

I forgot to mention the SATA test. It might work in u-boot without further change.

kwboot again, and interrupt countdown, and then

sata init
sata info
sata part

SSH is working without any issues

no sata partition table available
there are no led lights besides the power led chirping(fast blinking) blue. both under uboot and debian
when "sata init" command is issued the drive-leds are lit orange

Please try this test for fan alarm.

Kwboot the Oct 5 u-boot (if you have not flashed it). Interrupt the countdown and,

Poke to turn on alarm

mw.l 0xF1010100 0x00051000

Poke to turn off alarm

mw.l 0xF1010100 0x00011000

nothing happens when I issue the commands, no sound, no speed change, no output on the screen.

I'm glad I asked you to do this test. It is apparently broken. So I need to reconfigure this u-boot a bit to straighten this out before we can do further test for SATA.

Ok let's try this test in Debian.

Export
/bin/echo 18 > /sys/class/gpio/export
/bin/echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction
Set it
/bin/echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value

To stop the alarm (if it occured), clear it
/bin/echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value

Damn! how could I've missed this :) this might have explained a lot of the trouble we had getting the peripherals working.

It's a puzzle and bugging me, so I checked your stock bootlog again.

Stock boot log:
[    0.000000] Synology Hardware Version: DS411jv10-j

You have a different variation of DS41j, just like I had suspected but completely missed that good hint.

So an updated DTB is needed.

Let me explain how I do these hacks, and you can use the example to play with it.

The test above: Turn on GPIO 30 in addition to GPIOs 12 and 16 already in the bit mask 0x00011000.

The bit positions are from right to left (0 to 31). Each digit in the 8-byte bit mask is 4 bits. So

0001000 is bit 12.
0010000 is bit 16.


To turn on bit 30, 16 and 12:

0x40011000

And unfortunately GPIO 30 had no effect.

=======

The next candidates to turn on HDD1 and HDD2 power are bits 29 and 31 (each SATA slot has its own GPIO).

Bodhi,
do you mean to add 29 and then 31 in turns in addition to the 12 and 16?
I'm not sure how and what 12 and 16 do, are these generic to enable sata and then we need to add bit for drives?

so I tried 31 and 29 with no result:
mw.l 0xF1010100 0x80011000
mw.l 0xF1010100 0x20011000



not sure if I should stop sata and reinitialize again after each test-command

like this:
sata stop
mw.l 0xF1010100 0x80011000
sleep 3
sata init
sata info

Yes. Either individually or both at the same time is OK.

GPIO 16 is supposed to be fan on, medium speed. GPIO 12 is LED alarm (which is not that important). They should have nothing to do with SATA.

These 2 are currently set automaticaly when u-boot starts.

Yes. Ideally you should try 29, reboot and try 31. But in the same session is OK, too.

Don't do that. Run the standard shutdown procedure, so each device will received a proper shutdown.

shutdown -h now

I've uploaded the Oct 09 version in the first post.

Please try the SATA GPIO tests again. I would do GPIO 30 and capture the log (I want to see how the dm tree looks like).

And then do GPIO 29, and GPIO 31.

I'm almost certain that there are three wires for each fan.
black, red and white

Good to confirm that.

I also looked a bit in the GPL source, no sight of this ds411j.

The mainline DTSI is too clever, there is no hint of what variation of Synology NAS is applicable to certain gpio fan definition :)

==============

Can you still boot to Synology DSM? there might be a fan control script in the DSM rootfs.

found an interesting page which I guess you already seen:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/52F48EC8.9020306@killerwolves.net/

The Ricoh RTC seems to be only used in the pre-2010 units.  Everything
else uses the Seiko RTC.

Most of the 1-bay and 2-bay units use the GPIOs that are multiplexed
with the built-in SATA interface activity/presence pins on mpp 20-23,
while the 4-bay units use ge01 and a PCIe SATA controller, and put the
software controlled HDD leds on mpp 36-43.

Most of the 6281 units with HDD power controls use mpp 29 and 31, while
most of the 6282 units with HDD power controls use mpp 30, 34, 44 and 45
and provide a model ID on mpp 28, 29, 46 and 47.  Pre-2012 units and
4-bay units didn't have a separate power control for HDD1.  These power
controls are presumably to limit startup current from the 12V brick
power supply.

I guess the CPU for this unit is 6281:
DS411j	Marvell Kirkwood 88F6281	1	1	✗	88f628x	DDR2 128MB

I was just trying to check if the leds would react by disabling 4th nibble in the row which did nothing
I then just activated its corresponding values and fan reacted but not the leds.
so lucky I would say.

still cannot understand why and how sata should react.

have seen that if I issue "sata info" just grows to new and higher numbers like seen here:

Cool! I saw that you tried GPIO 15,16,17.

OK so I think the next step is to modify the DTS to ignore the fan alarm for now.

That's good thinking! how we hack these things while lacking documentation.

We are posting at the same time, so make sure you reread the posts today :)

So to get the fan working in Linux I think we'll work around it (modify the DTS). Also try the Rico RTC chip.

That's a bad behavior, not sure if there is bug in the driver.

=============

The fact that we have all 4 SATA drives in Linux, it is a good hint. We'll need to figure out which GPIOs are the power up GPIOs. There are many "blocks" in the mainline DTSI. I'm hoping to find out if the 1st one is hardwire, and why it was not powered up.


Please try SATA test with GPIO 34 and 35. It's far fetch, even wrong, but worth a try.
