09:10 < j`ey> Glanzmann: `git rev-list 6f59bc24287..smc/work` that might work, not sure how it deals with merges. git rebase is the better way. but if you do that youre on your own!
09:19 < _jannau_> Glanzmann: git rebase --onto 5.17-rc3 6f59bc24287
09:23 < j`ey> if you add -p it can also preserve the merges

19:13 < j`ey> but there's also CONFIG_OF_DMA_DEFAULT_COHERENT, which makes of_dma_is_coherent always return true

21:02 < jannau> mps: you need https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20220208210215.8612-1-j@jannau.net/ for extlinux

ARCH: 23:29 < ah-[m]> yep, exactly. I had to grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and move my Image.gz to /boot, otherwise it was just what was on the wiki page

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20211011165707.138157-1-marcan@marcan.st/
19:02 < jannau> I think based on this branch https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/tree/cpufreq/v1

23:41 < kov> Glanzmann, hmm interesting, I'll try upgrading libinput firs then, see if that fixes it
23:42 < kov> it's weird because I remember the trackpad working a while ago
23:45 -!- mtjzh (~mtjzh@2a02:8388:1742:9b80:658f:93d3:ec68:d60e) has joined #asahi
23:46 < kov> yep, just upgrading to testing's libinput makes it work heh thanks Glanzmann!

Chromium 16KB patch: https://tg.st/u/Set-kernal-page-size-to-16K-on-loongson-MIPS-archtec.patch
10:10 < jannau> see the commit message for 64k on ppc64 https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/445c099c6486b8e5ff8dafaefcd812a7ea4bdfff%5E%21/
15:26 < tpw_rules> Glanzmann: https://pastebin.com/NzJEQJDW - https://tg.st/u/NzJEQJDW
15:26 < tpw_rules> last i checked the built chromium only worked with the flags --in-process-gpu --no-sandbox --no-zygote but that may have been a kernel config problem
Upstream BUG: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=236564

22:39 < jannau> `dtc -I fs -O dts -o - /proc/device-tree` will output the device-tree as seen by linux

19:11 < Glanzmann> axboe: Could you explain how to mark a device as write-through? Does that mean if I issue a sync in Linux that no flush will happen. Because this would be helpful for the m1 notebook owners to improve performance.
19:11 < axboe> I just do: `echo "write through" > /sys/block/nvme0n1/queue/write_cache"` for now...
19:11 < axboe> Glanzmann: ^^
19:12 < axboe> Glanzmann: and yes, that's what it means
19:12 < Glanzmann> axboe: Thanks.
19:12 < axboe> Glanzmann: it'll bump your test case from 56 iops to 14k or something like that :)
19:12 < axboe> alternatively, some sort of time based hack might make sense
19:13 < axboe> "only issue flush if X seconds has passed since last issue"
19:13 < axboe> kinda nasty, but safer

15:50 < mps> axboe: Glanzmann: `libinput Disable While Typing Enabled (268):    1` is set in my case and it works fine
15:51 < mps> though I built latest beta of libinput and rebuilt xf86-input-libinput with it
15:52 < mps> i.e. libinput-1.19.901
15:52 < axboe> mps: promising
15:53 < mps> but still didn't got it to detect thumb
16:07 < mps> Glanzmann: `libinput quirks list /dev/input/event1` will show you features of input device
16:09 < mps> and `libinput quirks list /dev/input/event1` will show quirks from libinput database

From mps:
#!/bin/sh
echo 2 > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/fnmode
echo 1 > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/swap_fn_leftctrl
echo 1 > /sys/module/hid_apple/parameters/swap_opt_cmd

19:19 < Glanzmann> sven: Do you know why axboe set the admin queue to 2 instead of 8?
19:19 < sven> yes
19:19 < sven> almost all commands go through the io queue, no need to waste that space for the admin queue

# j`ey on deleting efi and Linux partitions from the gui in macos
20:46 < j`ey> Glanzmann: I didnt figure it out at the diskutil cli, but I managed to do it from the GUI, I think you have to erase/reformat as APFS before you can delete the volumes
10:53 < j`ey> Glanzmann: for your notes: < tpw_rules> you can delete a non-apfs partition with: diskutil eraseVolume free n disk0sX
21:07 < tpw_rules> you can delete a non-apfs partition with: diskutil eraseVolume free n disk0sX

08:54 < mixi> Glanzmann: the command you're looking for should be "dtc -I dtb -O dts /sys/firmware/fdt"
08:57 < jannau> Glanzmann: dtc -I fs -O dts -o - /proc/device-tree

# j`ey on hack to hookup lid close/open
23:19 < j`ey> apple_smc_event_received in drivers/platform/apple/smc_core.c is a good place to start looking

# kettenis on the same issue using existing infrastructure
23:20 < kettenis> so the lid is hooked up to gP01
23:24 < kettenis> looks like you could try hooking that up using gpio-keys-polled
23:27 < Glanzmann> kettenis: So gpio-keys-polled would poll gP01 and send a key event and than I could use my window manager to do something when that key event is received?
23:29 < kettenis> look at arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6q-novena.dts

# How to subscribe to smc events
23:45 < j`ey> Glanzmann: if youre still interested in looking: drivers/power/supply/macsmc_power.c apple_smc_register_notifier(power->smc, &power->nb);
23:46 < j`ey> so this driver gets called, when an SMC notification happens. looks like all registered handlers would be called and its up to the callback to figure out if it needs to do something

# More background
23:54 < kettenis> if the interrupts are hooked up correctly for thise SMC gpios, gpio-keys instead of gpio-keys-polled should work
23:54 < j`ey> no irq_chip in the current driver

17:34 <marcan> the image as built will have a real grub config with static UUIDs
17:35 <marcan> well, a systemd early unit but yes

cloud-initramfs-growroot
16:00 < Glanzmann> So applying a new uuid to the rootfs needs to be done in the initrd.
