| lkcl | cesar, your talk's gone live on fosdem https://video.fosdem.org/2022/D.open-hardware/gtkwavecss.webm | 14:34 |
|---|---|---|
| lkcl | should be on here soon https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/event/gtkwavecss/ | 14:34 |
| lkcl | today's meeting, we've been invited to consider adapting the NLnet Grants so that they can complete by October 2021 on immediate tasks | 20:34 |
| lkcl | toshywoshy, markos, sadoon_albader[m : for example some could go towards EABI and SFFS compliant bring-up | 20:34 |
| lkcl | ghostmansd[m], lxo: some will stay on binutils but possibly more could | 20:35 |
| lkcl | programmerjake, i'd love for some of the 3D and Video opcodes to stay in, do you think you could handle them? | 20:36 |
| lkcl | ghostmansd[m], kylel, also the test API, i'd really like to do auto-generating of Makefiles to create mini unit tests | 20:37 |
| lkcl | and we do need linux kernel and u-boot drivers for peripherals | 20:38 |
| lkcl | cesar, we'll keep going on the simple core then progress that to SVP64? | 20:39 |
| lkcl | programmerjake: oh, and the nmigen DynamicSIMD, that definitely needs completing | 20:40 |
| lkcl | mikolajw, you good to carry on the c-based back-end in nmigen? that's quite an important piece for doing the cavatools simulator port | 20:41 |
| lkcl | correction: we've been invited to adapt the NLnet milestones that are expiring by Oct 1st. the ones under NGI Assure stay as they are | 20:42 |
| lkcl | meeting's in 1h15m, quite a lot to discuss | 20:47 |
| mikolajw | lkcl: I'm currently working on another, quite large, project that has a high priority for me. So if you need any work on a short notice, please don't wait and feel free to reassign it to someone else | 21:01 |
| programmerjake | definitely will need additional discussion at the meeting of what exactly you meant, lkcl | 21:02 |
| mikolajw | and feel free to move anything that I wrote to the Nmigen repository if you need it | 21:05 |
| mikolajw | anything that I wrote for Libre-SoC* | 21:06 |
| mikolajw | And, I should say this openly, I'm still not sure if I do want to contribute to Nmigen (for the concerns I expressed earlier, but please let's not discuss that in this channel), so please consider me tentative | 21:12 |
| markos | lkcl, when you say adapt? timewise? | 21:14 |
| lkcl | timewise no, deadline does not move | 21:39 |
| lkcl | toshywoshy, meeting | 22:05 |
| lkcl | if you'd like to join | 22:06 |
| markos | lkcl, I'll ping you within the week to arrange a call for the video stuff | 23:32 |
| markos | o/ | 23:32 |
| programmerjake | lkcl we finished the meeting | 23:32 |
| * lkcl still having connectivity issues, i missed the messages from you both (programmerjake, markos) but can see them in the logs at least https://libre-soc.org/irclog/%23libre-soc.2022-02-08.log.html#t2022-02-08T20:34:08 | 23:43 | |
| sadoon_albader[m | Slight bummer, it looks like linux itself may have vsx/altivec in it and so our options are slimmed down to building a chroot of gentoo and going from there | 23:46 |
| sadoon_albader[m | I booted on power5 which has altivec and it still failed which tells me it's at least vsx1 | 23:46 |
| lkcl | sadoon_albader[m, this is where the microwatt linux-5.7 kernel comes in. that definitely doesn't have vsx. | 23:47 |
| sadoon_albader[m | ah good thinking! | 23:47 |
| lkcl | https://libre-soc.org/HDL_workflow/microwatt/ | 23:47 |
| sadoon_albader[m | yes we can inject that kernel and test | 23:47 |
| lkcl | https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joel/microwatt.git | 23:47 |
| sadoon_albader[m | but I'm worried other components might have vsx anyways so rebuilding it all from source is a safer and saner option | 23:48 |
| lkcl | yehyeh | 23:48 |
| sadoon_albader[m | Also qemu doesn't have the same "disabling extensions" capabilities on ppc as it does on x86 | 23:48 |
| sadoon_albader[m | You can pick a model but you can't cherry pick the enabled instructions | 23:49 |
| sadoon_albader[m | Anyways I'll report on progress later | 23:49 |
