[13:42:27] <wortley> I am trying to clean up my act and export a function that will allow me to get a pointer to my spibuffers. When I call that function from the kernel, I assume it knows nothing about where the spibus.comp __comp_first_inst is. Is there a data structure of names I can traverse to find the __comp_first_inst that I am interested in by name?

[16:34:17] <seb_kuzminsky> archivist: sure he's confused
[16:34:22] <seb_kuzminsky> he's made commits before:
http://git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a=commitdiff;h=155171ceadcb63d1322107a5c72b311c8235e845
[16:36:36] <seb_kuzminsky> i object to his claim that he did the task and was ignored, that's now what happened. he started it, got feedback, didn't do the indicated work, and now is claiming that he was ignored and the only thing needed is to push it to master
[16:37:45] <seb_kuzminsky> slavko wants the feature, and it is welcome in linuxcnc, but the patch to add it is not ready
[16:38:06] <seb_kuzminsky> if slavko's not going to do it, i feel like it's a favor to him to ask a GSoC student to finish it for him...

[16:44:05] <pcw_home> I didn't submit a patch
[16:44:07] <pcw_home> so why is it not there
[16:45:38] <archivist> I can see that, I can also see some language confusion and some impatience, first comment(his) is only after a couple of days
[16:46:22] <seb_kuzminsky> yeap, for sure
[16:47:42] <seb_kuzminsky> i bet everyone thinks the time-to-review-patch-submissions is too long in the linuxcnc project

[16:49:00] <seb_kuzminsky> we all do what we can, what we feel like, and if that's not good enough that's just the way it is

[21:06:40] <pcw_home> you have a IDC type flat cable from the header to the DB25?
[21:07:59] <adam3999_> yes
[21:08:09] <adam3999_> idc26 --> db25f
[21:08:22] <adam3999_> i don't see how all of the inputs and outputs would line up just fine if the cable was wrong
[21:08:54] <adam3999_> when i run ParallelPortTest, i can drive my XYZ step pins by clicking rapidly
[21:09:13] <adam3999_> and i can see my limit switches on pins 10-12, and e-stop on 15
[21:09:46] <adam3999_> i can't see how having all of those pins lined up correctly could occur if it was mis-wired
[21:10:48] <pcw_home> OK so it looks to be wired properly
[21:10:50] <pcw_home> when you look at the inputs with hal watch are the (non-working) inputs high or low?
[21:13:00] <adam3999_> they're false
[21:13:05] <adam3999_> in hal meter
[21:13:06] -!- TTN has quit [Changing host]
[21:13:09] <adam3999_> ptest.hal shows them all red
[21:14:15] <pcw_home> Thats a bit odd, have you tried pulling them up externally?
[21:14:25] <adam3999_> yep
[21:14:39] <adam3999_> that is what leads me to believe it's a low level parport/hal issue tied to my HW
[21:14:47] <adam3999_> i can boot up this PC with nothing even attached to the motherboard lpt header
[21:14:55] <adam3999_> and when i run the ptest.hal app, all inputs are red
[21:15:09] <skunkworks> micges: I think the planner still stops..
[21:15:14] <adam3999_> i've tried that same thing on 2 other PCs i have, and each time the input pins 10-15 show up as green immediately
[21:15:19] <pcw_home> Thats assuming the inputs have pullups
[21:15:20] <skunkworks> at end of each segment
[21:15:27] <adam3999_> and then if i show, say pin 10 for example, they will go from red to green
[21:16:02] <adam3999_> s/show/short/
[21:16:11] <pcw_home> if you measure the input pins with a voltmeter are they at a high level?
[21:16:30] <adam3999_> 0 VDC
[21:16:45] <adam3999_> i can watch my outputs go from 0 to 3.3V when i activate a pin via HAL
[21:16:46] <adam3999_> inputs do nothing
[21:17:08] <adam3999_> let me put the multimeter on one more time just to confirm for you
[21:18:57] -!- akex2 has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
[21:19:38] <adam3999_> ok multimeter V+ lead is on pin 3 and GND is on pin 22
[21:19:45] <adam3999_> i have ptest.hal open and when i click on pin 3, i go from 0V --> 3.3V
[21:20:41] <adam3999_> when i move the V+ loead over to pin 10, the multimeter moves from 0.00 to 0.01V
[21:20:58] -!- syyl_ has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[21:21:03] <adam3999_> if i then short the two multimeter leads together, to drive pin 3 straiaght into pin 22gnd, nothing happens in ptest
[21:21:06] <adam3999_> everything stays red
[21:21:15] -!- swingley has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[21:21:21] <pcw_home> OK so that indicates either that the port is not in the expected mode or has no input pullups
[21:21:54] <pcw_home> so now try pulling the input high with a say 1K resistor
[21:22:09] <pcw_home> (connected to +5V)
[21:22:16] <adam3999_> ok no prob, but before i do, i should mention again that this works just fine with the ParallelPortTest app
[21:22:41] <adam3999_> when i short pin 10 to 22, i can see the green light in that app bouncing on/off each time to indicate the inputs are being seen
[21:23:23] <adam3999_> and that same pathway works all the way through my MX3660, i can toggle the e-stop (Which drives pin 15) and i can see pin 15 toggle green/off/green/off in that other app
[21:24:26] <adam3999_> i've got a 1.8K ohm 1/4W resistor, will that work ok?
[21:24:37] <pcw_home> Yes
[21:25:33] <adam3999_> ok, i put the 1.8K between 10 and 22 and no change on ptest.hal
[21:25:36] <adam3999_> was red, still red..
[21:26:02] <pcw_home> 10 and +5 not gnd
[21:26:12] <adam3999_> oh sorry
[21:26:25] <adam3999_> can you let me know a good spot to get +5V?
[21:26:31] <adam3999_> my pins appear to all be 3.3V
[21:26:36] <micges> skunkworks: what do you mean?
[21:26:49] <adam3999_> i can wire off of a 5V rail on the ATX power supply?
[21:26:55] <adam3999_> that should have a common ground with the parallel port
[21:26:58] <pcw_home> safest is usually a cut USB cable
[21:27:19] <adam3999_> or perhaps a PS2 keyboard/mouse pin?
[21:27:29] -!- zeitue has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[21:27:45] <pcw_home> if you use the ATX 5V be careful you dont short the 5V out (>50A current possible)
[21:28:40] <adam3999_> ok give me a moment maybe i can tap a usb pin without cutting my cable
[21:28:43] <micges> skunkworks: heh I've missed deadline with jerk code so I needed to show him CAB planner
[21:28:52] <adam3999_> so +5V - 1.8K -- lpt pin 10
[21:29:16] <adam3999_> i'm assuming this lpt port is 5V tolerant, even though it outputs 3.3v ....? :)
[21:29:54] <pcw_home> Yes by spec (and even if it was not the 1.8K will protect it)
[21:35:13] <adam3999_> ok
[21:35:16] <adam3999_> after i put the fire out
[21:35:19] <adam3999_> haha jk
[21:35:27] <adam3999_> no input, still red on ptest.hal
[21:35:47] <adam3999_> i drove 5V from a usb cable attached to the linuxcnc PC through the resistor into pin 10
[21:37:37] <adam3999_> is it possible that the parallel port isnt being initialized by HAL or the other linuxcnc components somehow
[21:37:47] <adam3999_> but that the ParallelPortTest app does do something correctly to initialize it?
[21:38:30] <adam3999_> i saw some forum traffic about folks using a piece of software to set the mode of their parallel port, but i think that was because they didn't have an easy way to set EPP in their bios. mine is set EPP-1.9 via BIOS (has surprisingly a lot of parallel port options in there)
[21:39:39] <pcw_home> What does pin 10 read when pulled up?
[21:40:31] <adam3999_> would you like me to put the multimeter between pin 10 and the lpt ground pin 22 while i pull it up via the 5V and resistor?

[21:45:30] <adam3999_> hm that is strange, nothing there
[21:45:56] <adam3999_> either this usb 5v is not present (unlikely) or perhaps the lpt ground and usb ground are not shared
[21:46:01] -!- zeitue has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[21:46:49] <pcw_home> They are shared so if you connect the voltmeter to the 1.8K resistor it should read roughly 5V

[21:50:35] <adam3999_> hm
[21:50:45] <adam3999_> ok so i just knocked some cables out and rebooted my cnc pc
[21:51:09] <adam3999_> and happened to notice that when POSTing, the multimeter read 3.3V from pin 10 to pin 22
[21:51:20] <adam3999_> then it went into an intermediate state around 1.4-1.5V during boot
[21:51:28] <adam3999_> and when i ran halrun -I -f ptest.hal, it dropped to 0
[21:52:34] <pcw_home> looks like something puts it into a bogus mode (ECP?)
[21:52:46] <adam3999_> yeah that's what im starting to think
[21:52:52] <adam3999_> something sw related is putting it in a bad mode
[21:53:05] <adam3999_> are there any OS tools that can force it into a specific mode?

[22:04:27] <pcw_home> well thats a good sign

[22:04:50] <adam3999_> with the
[22:05:10] <adam3999_> with the factory BIOS as well as the v1.5 latest update
[22:05:40] <pcw_home> does the pp related part of dmesg change when you change modes?
[22:06:08] <pcw_home> maybe the BIOS isn't really doing anything
[22:06:32] <adam3999_> well, it says PCSPP right now, and i know it's set to EPP-1.9
[22:06:42] <adam3999_> so that's an issue right there IMO
[22:06:55] <adam3999_> i can reboot and set it to like bidirectional or normal and see if the PCSPP string changes

[22:35:32] <adam3999_> ok yep, went from 1.14V--> 3.57V
[22:35:49] <adam3999_> not sure why we didn't get a good voltage on the usb cable, but it looked fine from the ATX connector
[22:36:41] <pcw_home> so does halmeter/whatever change now?
[22:37:55] <adam3999_> ok so running halrun -I -f ptest.hal drops the multimeter down to 0.01V
[22:38:01] <adam3999_> and i have nothing but red pins
[22:38:09] <adam3999_> want to try and pull it up with 5VDC again?
[22:38:45] <pcw_home> Yes read when pulled up (via hal and meter)
[22:39:24] <adam3999_> oh my my
[22:39:36] <adam3999_> yep, multimeter goes 0-->3.xV and i can finally frickin see a green dot on ptest.hal
[22:40:20] <adam3999_> 0.01-->3.14VDC on pin 10
[22:40:48] <adam3999_> getting somewhere... woot
[22:41:14] -!- rob_h [rob_h!~robh@90.212.252.1] has joined #linuxcnc-devel
[22:42:44] <adam3999_> so is this a linux parport mode issue
[22:43:15] <adam3999_> or do i need to put some type of db25 adapter in-line with my parport and MX3660 that pulls up the input pins to 5V?
[22:44:09] <pcw_home> Probably a mode issue
[22:45:05] -!- nerdfiles has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[22:45:47] <adam3999_> any thoughts on how to track it down further?
[22:46:04] <adam3999_> thanks very much for the help so far, btw
[22:47:49] <pcw_home> maybe finding the pp mode read/set utility would help
[22:47:50] <pcw_home> or read up on ieee-1284 registers and see what the source is doing
[22:52:34] <pcw_home> wonder whats different with the MBs I have?
[22:52:50] <adam3999_> yeah dunno
[22:53:01] <pcw_home> different SuperIO chip? I though they were all ITE
[22:53:48] <adam3999_> what can i show you
[22:53:50] <adam3999_> lspci -vvv ?
[22:56:19] <pcw_home> its not PCI, probably best to look at board
[22:58:25] <adam3999_> bingo
[22:58:26] <adam3999_> http://www.nuvoton.com/hq/products/cloud-computing/i-o/super-i-o-series/nct6776d/?__locale=en
[22:58:28] <adam3999_> not ITE
[22:58:53] <adam3999_> The NCT6776D is a member of Nuvoton’s Super I/O series capable of monitoring critical parameters in PC hardware including power supply voltages, fan speeds and temperatures. The NCT6776D supports both high accuracy current mode sensing and low cost thermistor mode sensing. The NCT6776D also supports the Nuvoton SMART FAN™ I and SMART FAN™ IV algorithms for fan speed control.
[22:58:53] <adam3999_> The NCT6776D supports Printer Port, KBC, 2 UART and GPI/O.
[22:59:31] -!- Praesmeodymium has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[23:00:18] <pcw_home> also has low power mode... hmmm
[23:02:33] <pcw_home> like how those are listed under "cloud computing"
[23:03:11] <adam3999_> ha
[23:06:20] <pcw_home> I'm signing up for an account...
[23:07:18] <adam3999_> i see lots of linux hw monitoring tools that have support for that chip
[23:07:31] <adam3999_> they are readinh/writing addresses that talk to it
[23:07:51] <adam3999_> i wonder if we could strip some of that code and talk to that chip and manually set some of its parallel port functionality
[23:07:52] Praesmeodymium|2 is now known as Praesmeodymium
[23:08:09] <adam3999_> instead of fan speeds and temps
[23:08:27] <pcw_home> that part _should_ be independent and IEEE-1284 compatible
[23:08:45] <adam3999_> and yet, here we are :)

[23:10:33] <adam3999_> superiotool r6637
[23:10:33] <adam3999_> Found Nuvoton NCT6776F (C) (id=0xc333) at 0x2e
[23:10:33] <adam3999_> root@linuxcnc:~#
[23:10:37] <adam3999_> i can dump registers and such with this tool
[23:11:22] <adam3999_> LDN 0x01 (Parallel Port)
[23:11:23] <adam3999_> idx 30 60 61 70 74 f0
[23:11:23] <adam3999_> val ff ff ff ff ff ff
[23:11:23] <adam3999_> def 01 03 78 07 04 3f
[23:11:32] <adam3999_> those are the parport registers, whatever the heck they represent...
[23:12:36] <pcw_home> well data sheet might help
[23:17:17] <pcw_home> I wonder if linuxcnc's mode setting stuff preserves what it thinks are dont-care mode register bits
[23:18:30] <adam3999_> http://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20Sheets/Nuvoton%20PDFs/NCT6776F,D.pdf
[23:18:47] <adam3999_> not sure
[23:19:00] <adam3999_> i do think it's interesting that after boot, the parport inputs are floating around 1.15V
[23:19:02] -!- gonzo_nb has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[23:19:29] <adam3999_> and when i run that separate ParallelPortTest utility, it will move up to 2.xVDC when in input mode, then when it exits it leaves it again in an intermediate state
[23:19:45] <adam3999_> as soon as i run anything HAL related, inputs rop to 0.01VDC
[23:19:56] <adam3999_> so those tools are definitely doing different things wrt/ mode setting

[23:24:30] -!- nerdfiles has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[23:26:22] <adam3999_> ok so i see on pg 229 a table showing available parport modes
[23:26:42] <adam3999_> and they can be changed by setting 3 bits in a register
[23:31:42] <pcw_home> With pullup, inputs should be ~3.3V.
[23:32:48] <pcw_home> now you just need a utility to read/write the config regs
[23:33:47] <pcw_home> out 0x778 7
[23:33:48] <pcw_home> etc
[23:34:17] <adam3999_> this superiotool has a regwrite() function in it...
[23:34:38] <adam3999_> void regwrite(uint16_t port, uint8_t reg, uint8_t val)
[23:34:38] <adam3999_> {
[23:34:38] <adam3999_> OUTB(reg, port);
[23:34:38] <adam3999_> OUTB(val, port + 1);
[23:34:38] <adam3999_> }
[23:34:44] <adam3999_> not sure if that is going to actually achieve what we want
[23:35:26] <adam3999_> can you explain what you mean by 0x778 7 ?
[23:37:46] <pcw_home> ECR register is base +0x402
[23:37:48] <pcw_home> so actually 0x77A
[23:38:42] <adam3999_> ah, above the 0x378 base, roger
[23:39:34] <adam3999_> and 0x7 is 100, which is the EPP mode setting?
[23:40:45] <pcw_home> oops that wrong mode is in top 3 bits
[23:41:21] <adam3999_> yeah i was gonna ask, i think we need a mask or something
[23:41:27] <adam3999_> just to manipulate those top bits 5-7 and leave 0-4 alone
[23:41:47] <pcw_home> probably leave alone
[23:43:52] <pcw_home> well actually last bits could be 0x14 (disable DMA and IRQs)
[23:52:12] <adam3999_> whoops, sorry wifi dead
[23:52:29] <adam3999_> so i'm trying to think how i could use the regwrite command
[23:53:11] <adam3999_> if port is 0x378, reg is 0x402, and then the value parameter is a string that will turn on EPP
[23:54:26] <pcw_home> ECR is base (0x378) + 0x402 = 0x77A
[23:54:50] <adam3999_> correct, but if you look at the regwrite function above, it's got a port then register argument
[23:55:00] <adam3999_> so i was thinking port would be the 0x378 base addr
[23:55:21] <pcw_home> doesnt apply to parallel port
[23:55:31] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[23:55:45] <adam3999_> ok so regwrite( 0x77A, ??, ?? );
[23:55:59] <adam3999_> or we can just OUTB() and forget regwrite()
[23:56:00] <pcw_home> ox77a is direct read/write I/O access
[23:56:46] <pcw_home> INB might be more informative (at least to see whats gone wrong)
[23:57:44] <pcw_home> since I/O is protected it might be easier to dig up the PP mode utility
