Yes.by WarheadsSE - uBoot
Re: Kirkwood U-boot - Getting all supported Kirkwoods on-board - 9 years ago
There is actually a command that can be scripted into the stock u-boot that will disable the watchdog. I'll have to go digging, but it should ONLY be used with the Debian kernel, since the ALARM kernel still trips the watchdog off.by WarheadsSE - uBoot
Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible! - 9 years ago
Right. What I am saying is We either need to be determinate that - when booting we disable it - before starting the kernel (bootm xxxx) we re-enable it -- unless we're told not to (aka, a kernel doesn't know to turn it off) Reasoning being: if your kernel hangs, you might wish the system would reboot. If it takes 30 seconds to get to the kernel board bring up (early system init,by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible! - 9 years ago
Need to get that sorted, and merged. However, due to this "behavior" of the watchdog, it has to be very well documented. I still think that with the NSA325's implementation, we should disable it once uboot has loaded, and then enable it prior to boot. This might even be best to leave as the enable/disable via a well documented environment(!!) command to use with runby WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible! - 9 years ago
@bodhi The problem is you can not probe for the state of the hardware watchdog.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible! - 9 years ago
I think something might make sense here: u-boot disables watchdog when it starts, then, we re-enable it just before starting the kernel. Why? In case the kernel hangs. Obviously, for we'd do this via a memory write, instead of in c code for u-boot. Why? Because then that bit can be flipped on/off :)by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: NSA 325 V2 Debian Is Possible! - 9 years ago
@addy75 Right. What we're saying is that the uboot on the box might be the problem, and not the kernel.by WarheadsSE - Debian

Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
<0x45900000,0x45910000} That } is a problem. And we still need it to truly understand it is _one_ controller with _two_ ports. This really needs to be handled @ the driver code, and then only the difference adjusted @ the dts would be nr-ports.by WarheadsSE - Debian

Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
@bodhi - yes, PLUS additions to the driver to be able to address the second port.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
Except, the vendors sata driver will 99% likely not work with the newer kernel. I have seen that pile of steaming crap.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
I am saying it needs added.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
Yes.. because it is attempting to treat it as 2 separate PHY. There is only 1.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
It would probably be est to get the sata@ so that it doesn't think there are actually 2 entries, but that you can specify nr-ports 2, and it uses the second port @ +0x10000by WarheadsSE - Debian

Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
>> printenv >> help My immediate thought is that your recompiled uboot doesn't have the necessary options to enable the power lines? Does the drive spin up? If not, that is a possibility. I have also seen vendor variants the the GPL tarball doesn't have features enabled, and it takes a small amount of digging to find the necessary items to enable.by WarheadsSE - Debian

@bodhi Perhaps what is happening is that the uboot is tripping it off. Then the kernel is tripping it back on? Consider it like a momentary push button. Trip on, Trip off, repeat. Can you test against a kernel _without_ the logic to trip it?by WarheadsSE - uBoot
Re: Linux Kernel 3.16.0 Pogo V3 (Oxnas OX820) package and rootfs (Flattened Device Tree) - 9 years ago
The OXNAS 8720 series uses the same SATA PHY block as the ox810 because they both use a separate piece of silicon on die, but that's about where it ends.by WarheadsSE - Debian

It's just as likely that you have only temporarily disabled it with that mashing of the GPIO.by WarheadsSE - uBoot
Re: Linux Kernel 3.16.0 Pogo V3 (Oxnas OX820) package and rootfs (Flattened Device Tree) - 9 years ago
The ox810 and plx oxnas 8720 are different enough that they are not compatible. You will need to make the necessary forward ports.by WarheadsSE - Debian

Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
Best to take the settings from the old uboot, and work them into the new uboot. I did plenty of work in that old u-boot pile of trash. Ouch.by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Debian on Shuttle KD20 (PLX OXNAS 7821) - 9 years ago
QuotePeacemaker The next is u-Boot only activates 128mb Ram and not the full 256mb. Again, this are things that are board specific. These are things that you can only really get if you get the GPL tarballs from the manufacturer and we can recompile with these settings!by WarheadsSE - Debian
Re: Zyxel NSA320S with Debian from USB-stick - 9 years ago
There may be some pinmux differences, and we'd need to know these things first for the kernel. Otherwise, it is possible that you could take the route I designed prior for being able to flip back and forth.by WarheadsSE - Debian
