| 12:26.25 | Alex1269 | I found in documentation that 32 gpios can be used as interrupt sources by default and another 32 using pin mode=6. But there is no information what happens with default eint0 pin after switching another eint0 source to mode=6 |
| 12:30.26 | mnemoc | but... do we really need sunxi_gpio_to_irq() to export predeclared input and output pins on /sys/class/gpio ? |
| 12:32.30 | Alex1269 | this function adds "edge" attribut into gpio sysfs directory. Then you can echo "rising" into it and poll on value attribut. |
| 12:32.52 | mnemoc | ok |
| 12:32.56 | mnemoc | fair enough :) |
| 12:34.26 | Alex1269 | I think sun4i and sun3i eint enabled gpios differs |
| 12:34.41 | mnemoc | ignore sun3i for now |
| 12:34.48 | mnemoc | but sun5i is critical |
| 12:35.54 | mnemoc | (sun3i code is too incomplete to be usable, and no one here has hardware to test) |
| 12:36.22 | mnemoc | sun5i is more complicated as there are 2+ SoCs implementing it |
| 12:36.47 | mnemoc | maybe sunxi_gpio_to_irq() itself should be sun4i-only for now |
| 12:36.49 | Alex1269 | so I added a table(s) :) but not sure about muxed eint gpios... It looks like they work as interrupt enabled inputs in mode=6 (http://linux-sunxi.org/A10/PIO) and defaults became non-interrupt enabled. |
| 12:37.31 | mnemoc | Alex1269: saw http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/A10/A10%20User%20Manual%20-%20v1.20%20%282012-04-09%2c%20DECRYPTED%29.pdf ? |
| 12:39.16 | Alex1269 | :) For non sun4i platforms currently I have "static structgpio_eint_data gpio_eint_list[] = { {-1,-1,-1} }" so gpio_to_irq will allways return -EINVAL for non sun4i |

| 13:10.44 | slapin | they all tell me mutt caches mail, but i simply can't see where it does it, bith regular mutt and mutt-patched from Debian. |
| 13:11.57 | aholler | you have to enable it, e.g. with set header_cache=~/.mutt/tmp/.mutt |
| 13:12.15 | aholler | upps, should be ~/.mutt only |
| 13:13.36 | aholler | there is also a message_cachedir, just see man muttrc |

| 13:17.16 | slapin | set header_cache is here from beginning, the directory is empty |
| 13:20.47 | aholler | maybe because it doesn't make much sense with mbox or maildir |

| 13:24.33 | aholler | I don't know how mutt works internally, but when using imap the headers will be cached. |

| 20:15.03 | ssvb | thanks for reporting |
| 20:16.11 | techn_ | oh.. I propaby should run ./configure --prefix=/usr separetly |
| 20:17.07 | techn_ | that didnt help |
| 20:21.44 | ssvb | techn_: I guess something DRM/DRI related needs to be added to configure.ac into PKG_CHECK_MODULES and/or XORG_DRIVER_CHECK_EXT |
| 20:23.24 | ssvb | techn_: is it debian/ubuntu? |
| 20:23.36 | techn_ | linaro |
| 20:24.16 | ssvb | do they have rootfs tarballs somewhere nowadays? |
| 20:25.32 | techn_ | http://releases.linaro.org/12.11/ubuntu/precise-images/alip ? |

| 20:29.18 | techn_ | glxgears fives 10fps fullscreen :( |
| 20:29.36 | techn_ | 240fps in small default screen |
| 20:29.38 | ssvb | techn_: with what kernel? |
| 20:30.11 | techn_ | ssvb: 3.0.. but I have some clock modifications which could effect this |
| 20:30.21 | ssvb | techn_: and does it report any problems in /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? |
| 20:31.43 | ssvb | techn_: defining DEBUG in sunxi_mali_ump_dri2.c should make it rather verbose |
| 20:31.44 | techn_ | ssvb: the normal ones [ 91952.204] (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering |
| 20:32.55 | ssvb | anything like [175357.239] (II) SUNXIFB(0): enabled display controller hardware overlays for DRI2 ? |
| 20:33.59 | ssvb | or "GET_UMP_SECURE_ID_SUNXI_FB ioctl failed, overlays can't be used"? |
| 20:34.23 | techn_ | yes.. I have it there.. but now I remember.. I have scaler layer enabled in my script bin |
| 20:34.42 | techn_ | which causes that it wont get layer with scaling ability? |
| 20:35.34 | ssvb | no, scaler layer should just cause some funky effects like the layers at wrong positions or misplaced cursor |
| 20:35.45 | ssvb | but it should not affect performance |
| 20:35.56 | techn_ | lol |
| 20:36.22 | techn_ | I got jumping screen when I scaled es_gears window :D |
| 20:36.46 | ssvb | what is the screen resolution? |
| 20:36.56 | techn_ | 1080p |
| 20:37.48 | ssvb | it seems to be having troubles sending data over HDMI at this resolution, when something is heavily using memory at the same time |
| 20:38.22 | ssvb | reducing the framerate from 60Hz to 50Hz helps, but does not eliminate it completely |
| 20:39.20 | ssvb | techn_: just to clarify, did you get "GET_UMP_SECURE_ID_SUNXI_FB ioctl failed" message? |
| 20:40.02 | techn_ | no.. I'll get 0x3 id when I rescale window |
| 20:40.15 | techn_ | everytime |
| 20:40.35 | ssvb | it is normal |
| 20:41.42 | ssvb | how much FPS did you get with xf86-video-mali? |
| 20:41.51 | techn_ | ssvb: I send you email |
| 20:42.32 | techn_ | ssvb: Not much more ~30fps in fullscreen :/ |
| 20:42.42 | techn_ | or even less |
| 20:43.08 | techn_ | but in smaller screen I got much less than with yours |
| 20:43.39 | techn_ | I can rebenchmark |
| 20:52.51 | techn_ | another observation.. when I move window top of gles window.. fps drop ie. from 190fps to 35fps |
| 20:53.19 | ssvb | techn_: I'm more worried about the fullscreen performance, seems like it just does not want to enable disp layer for it. The debugging output with DEBUG define in sunxi_mali_ump_dri2.c can help to identify the root cause |
| 20:53.48 | techn_ | ok.. I'll enable that |
| 20:54.45 | ssvb | techn_: for the another observation, it is normal, the driver just disables overlay and fallbacks to doing memory copy if something is on top of the window |
| 20:55.47 | ssvb | techn_: and because fbdev driver uses shadow framebuffer (for faster 2D), it is actually doing more memory copies than xf86-video-mali in the case of overlapped window |
| 20:56.47 | techn_ | hmm.. what if you enable alphablending for that hwlayer?? |
| 20:57.03 | techn_ | and then just move that layer back.. or how it works :p |
| 20:57.09 | techn_ | otherway around |
| 20:58.39 | ssvb | techn_: it's not so easy, but can be tried later |
| 20:59.26 | ssvb | in any case, I would guess that the users normally don't want to have some other windows on top |
| 21:01.06 | ssvb | and if the other windows are on top, the users are likely to be interacting with these other windows, so the FPS drop should not bother them too much |
| 21:03.19 | techn_ | thats true.. trying to learn how things work :) |

| 21:29.03 | ssvb | techn_: no, it looks like A10 just can't handle 1080p reliably |
| 21:29.59 | ssvb | techn_: I suspect that display controller can't fetch data from memory in time and substitutes it with some kind of padding, which causes this screen shaking effect |
| 21:31.30 | ssvb | techn_: it could also be that the display controller is misconfigured and has lower priority than mali with the regards to memory access |
