16:19:25 <pbrobinson> yes! 16:19:27 <hrw> 32-on-64 was on list 16:19:28 <pbrobinson> Cookies! 16:19:46 <hrw> cookies with salmiak! 16:19:54 <pbrobinson> hrw: I have 32-on-64 working, it's not pretty, December is when I get time to clean it up 16:20:07 <pwhalen> 32 on 64 is working pretty good, ive been using a beefy 8 core 12G vm on the mustang 16:20:11 <pbrobinson> docker and qemu ( cloud) images are also on my list 16:20:18 <hrw> wow! 16:20:23 <pwhalen> its pretty 16:20:56 <hrw> by hand or via libvirt tools? 16:21:11 <pbrobinson> hrw: I'm working so we have have a u-boot "firmware" (like x86/aarch64) so there doesn't need to be kernels/initrds copied around 16:21:24 <pbrobinson> hrw: it's libvirt with a bunch of ugly 16:21:42 <hrw> pbrobinson: u-boot instead of uefi to get properly licensed firmware? 16:21:45 <hrw> nice 16:21:50 <pwhalen> pbrobinson, im thinking theres limitations with that.. as it seems anyways in my testing 16:21:57 <pbrobinson> hrw: no uEFI on 32bit at the moment, we support u-boot well there 16:22:11 <hrw> ah, right. my fault 16:22:18 <pbrobinson> pwhalen: I have ideas about your limitations.... we're thinking this out wrong IMO 16:22:43 <pbrobinson> pwhalen: I think we need to use a vexpress 64 bit u-boot and use it to boot the 32 bit kernel 16:22:55 <pbrobinson> not a A9 or A15 u-boot 16:23:00 <pwhalen> interesting.. ok.. i can try that 16:23:33 <pbrobinson> we don't need to emulate 32 bit from that perspective I believe 16:23:50 <pbrobinson> I might well be wrong but this meeting isn't the spot to discuss details 16:24:02 <pwhalen> i think i see what youre saying, worth a shot anyways 16:24:31 <pwhalen> any other features we'd like to see ? 16:25:05 <hrw> other than those from 2 weeks ago? 16:25:25 <pbrobinson> I've got on my list 16:25:30 <pbrobinson> 1) 32on64 16:25:36 <hrw> I wonder how NVidia TX1 looks when it comes to support 16:25:37 <pbrobinson> 2) docker/qemu on aarch64 16:25:44 <pbrobinson> 3) CHIIP device support 16:25:57 <pbrobinson> 4) hopeful Xorg acceleration improvemenets 16:26:20 <pwhalen> the tx1 looks very nice, but.. that price 16:26:23 <mgalgoci> cursory look seemed to indicate TX1 was uboot based 16:26:24 <pbrobinson> 5) the new systemd usb stuff for things like serial/net over usb OTG ports 16:26:37 <pbrobinson> mgalogci: it is 16:26:39 <hrw> 6) Moonshot M400, 7) raspberry/pi2? 16:27:05 <pbrobinson> hrw@ 6 is already in motion with a bunch of people working on it and we know the time frame etc 16:27:57 <pbrobinson> the 7) will depend on upstream support. I know there's been a bunch of "OMG a drm driver has landed upstream" shit on sites this week but it's of no fucking use if you can' actually boot the fucker 16:29:15 <pbrobinson> also new devices enablement of of various kinds and solidifying the support we have 16:29:33 <pbrobinson> oh and sensors support..... lots and lots of sensors 16:30:22 <pbrobinson> any one with anything else? 16:30:36 <hrw> nothing came to mind 16:31:15 <pwhalen> youve covered most of them..i think anyways. increased remixes for hw we cant support 16:32:09 <hrw> but let not add 'remix builder tool' ;D 16:32:14 <pbrobinson> oh and a general "96boards" improved support if reasonably possible 16:32:44 <pwhalen> hrw, your blog was great, led to some good discussion on their list 16:32:56 <pbrobinson> I'd like to add "u-boot on aarch64 support" but I'd need someone to run with that, I really don't have the cycles to commit 16:32:57 <hrw> pwhalen: which one? 16:33:12 <pbrobinson> on the 96boards public list 16:33:16 <hrw> will look 16:34:14 <pwhalen> https://lists.96boards.org/pipermail/dev/2015-November/000524.html 16:35:31 <pwhalen> ok, anything else for f24? 16:35:48 <pbrobinson> not from me 16:36:17 <pwhalen> #topic 5) == Open Floor == 16:37:52 <hrw> I got roseapple/pi board. 16:38:03 <hrw> plan to get it booted with some remix and then complain on blog 16:38:12 <pbrobinson> hrw: cool, does it boot anything? 16:38:20 <hrw> pbrobinson: there is f21 remix 16:38:21 <pwhalen> same, ive not played with it yet.. well, i tried that f21 image but it didnt boot.. 16:38:31 <hrw> 3.10.37 kernel ;( 16:38:51 <hrw> diff was ~60MB size 16:39:11 <pbrobinson> hrw: do you have it booted? can you send me a dmesg/lsmod? 16:39:39 <hrw> pbrobinson: not yet 16:40:03 <pbrobinson> hrw: ping me when you do, there is a little upstream support for that vendor/SoC 16:40:13 <hrw> ok 16:40:33 <pbrobinson> pwhalen: anything else on the agenda? 16:40:48 <pwhalen> nope, was abhout to close it out.. last call... 16:41:24 <pwhalen> #endmeeting
