This is a non issue if the OS image in question has the latest fixes applied since we did some extensive work to improve thermal throttling behaviour. So best advice is to update kernel and u-boot as follows:
Code:
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_update_uboot.sh)
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_update_kernel.sh)
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_fix_whatever.sh)In case the stress utility can be installed by running 'apt-get install stress' then checking for undervoltage is easy: 'stress -m 2 -c 2'. If the board powers off it's undervoltage.
