Linux Mainline - ayufan - 08-28-2017
I released a few new builds that fix a bunch of problems but also enables first initial headless compile of the mainline kernel: https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/releases.
You can find all patches added on top of u-boot and kernel here:
- https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-mainline-kernel
- https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-u-boot/tree/mainline-master
What does work?
- eMMC and SD,
- GbE ethernet, 100M ethernet,
- PXE and USB booting via U-boot,
- SPI accessible from U-boot and Kernel,
- Power/standby leds,
- Power key,
- Persistent eth0 and eth1 address,
What does not?
- Everything else probably, like HDMI, Mali, cpu scaling.
Usage?
This is suitable for testing and headless use.
How to install?
Code:
wget https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/releases/download/0.5.5/linux-image-4.13.0-rc1-rockchip-ayufan-93-ga1d4fc4_0.5.5_arm64.deb
dpkg -i linux-image-4.13.0-rc1-rockchip-ayufan-93-ga1d4fc4_0.5.5_arm64.deb^^ This will only work when running on one of my images. It will not work with Official images.
^^ In above you may want to look at https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/releases and get the latest archive.
How to uninstall?
Code:
dpkg -r linux-image-4.13.0-rc1-rockchip-ayufan-93-ga1d4fc4Remarks?
All my builds since 0.5.x do use mainline u-boot with some extra patches.
RE: Linux Mainline - jl_678 - 08-28-2017
This is amazing work. Thank you! However, it does raise a question. Is there/will there be a simple way to upgrade as these new fixes come out that does not require a complete re-flash? I apologize if this is an obvious question.
Thank you!
RE: Linux Mainline - ayufan - 08-29-2017
Yes. Just install a new kernel on top of my image. Use Debian package.

This is awesome! Thanks! I'll volunteer to test. So what do I do? Download the 3 Debian packages for 4.13.0-rc1 to /tmp then run sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-4.13*.deb linux-image-4.13*.deb ? In Grub machine, I have to run update-grub but what about this?

@rontant, it would be great if you could document the process. I would be happy to test the process on my 4GB Rock64 running the previous release of Debian Stretch minimal. There is nothing running on the board and so it will not be an issue if a reimage is required.

I installed from your Strech minimal 4.4.77. I can only report that after reboot into the new kernel, the ssh connection (via Bitvise SSH client) becomes very unstable (frequent disconnection and terminal keyboard becomes sluggish). Dmesg freezes half way and disconnect the SSH client.

Remarks?
All my builds since 0.5.x do use mainline u-boot with some extra patches.
Downloaded the "linux-build-rock-64-92" last night and ran it this evening. Then I realized there was already a "linux-build-rock-64-93". Can't keep up!
To test Build 92 I took the conservative approach of flashing a new microSD:
- I downloaded xenial-mate-rock64-0.5.4-92-arm64.img.xz
- extracted with 7-zip
- imaged a new microSD by selecting the downloaded and extracted .img file.
- booted a production Rock64 w/ 4 GB
Everything seems fine with one error notice.
Error: Sorry, Ubuntu 16.04 has experienced an internal error.
Executable path:
/usr/bin/Ubuntu-mate-welcome
Not sure when this showed up. I had selected the Welcome -> Software button and tried a few categories that were empty. After a reboot I haven't seen this again, but haven't played with the Welcome window.
Otherwise Ethernet, USB, etc. all seem fine and better than the previous release version, Build 83. Tested that Ethernet connects on boot and shows good throughput on Xfinity speed test. Connected an Adata USB3 flash drive to the USB3 port and transferred some files.
FYI, uname -a gives:
Linux rock64 4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-92 #1 SMP Mon Aug 28 19:38:29 UTC 2017 aarch64 (three times) GNU/Linux
Keep up the super excellent work! Many Thanks!

RE: Linux Mainline - Farley56 - 08-30-2017
Thanks for the info Ayufan. I was hoping I'd find commands to update to the most recent build. Unfortunately I think I bricked my Xenial Mate ROCK64 load. I ran the command line code you had in your last post. When I rebooted, I just got a flashing red light, never booted up. Oops. I don't think I was supposed to write it over my existing Xenial load. I probably now have a true headless (and boot-less) load! Oh well, no worries. Some day I'd like to figure out how to upgrade one of your builds to the newest build. For now, I'll pull down the newest Xenial Mate image and start over. Live and learn.
RE: Linux Mainline - jl_678 - 08-30-2017
Hi,
So I followed the upgrade instructions and something did not work.
I start with this: Linux rock64 4.4.70-rockchip-ayufan-89 #1 SMP Sun Aug 20 13:29:12 UTC 2017 aarch64 GNU/Linux
I then did the following:
1.) Downloaded latest image via wget: linux-firmware-image-4.13.0-rc1-rockchip-ayufan-96-gbacbee6_0.5.6_arm64.deb
2.) I followed the dpkg instructions as illustrated below.

What am I missing?
I also tried the following and received message below:

linux-rock64 is already the newest version (0.5.1).
Thank you.
