[13:50:04] <seb_kuzminsky> bummer
[13:50:38] <seb_kuzminsky> ok so the problem is with the internal usb tree, before it gets to the external ports on your computer

[14:00:32] <pcw_home> Unfortunately I overwrote the drive of my ubuntu 12.04 with
[14:00:34] <pcw_home> 2.6.32 kernel system so I was not able to test again
[14:00:35] <pcw_home> stock 10.04 with 2.6.32 RTAI definitely doesn't work
[14:05:03] badon_ is now known as badon
[14:06:35] <pcw_home> Even some older stock kernels dont work (the 3.2 that comes with 12.04 doesnt work)
[14:06:37] <pcw_home> It may be asking a lot to have RTAI support for the JXXXX CPUs since they are so new
[14:06:38] <pcw_home> (and need a >3.11.xx kernel for accelerated video)
[14:14:34] <CaptHindsight> after the RTAI scheduler gets fixed then 3.11 RTAI will be possible
[14:20:19] <pcw_home> Hmm wonder if anyone is actually working on that...

[14:37:40] <CaptHindsight> we're almost to the August shutdown of Europe, I don't know if he works on this during his break or avoids it further
[14:38:37] <CaptHindsight> this has been the hangup with RTAI since early May

[18:22:42] badon_ is now known as badon
[18:23:47] <CaptHindsight> I'll ask around
[18:24:28] <CaptHindsight> then the same might be true for preempt_rt

[18:25:58] <CaptHindsight> is RTAI really used for anything besides software stepping to save the ~$100 for an FPGA card?
[18:26:36] <CaptHindsight> maybe it makes more sense to make sure preempt_RT stays healthy and up to date
[18:27:51] <pcw_home> RTAI (or Xenomai) is important if you want higher thread rates even if its not for step generation
[18:29:01] <pcw_home> say for torque mode control at 10 KHZ or so in HAL
[18:29:36] <CaptHindsight> if the RTAI scheduler gets fixed then we'll be set for how long long until the kernel goes through some giant refactoring?
[18:31:03] -!- syyl has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[18:31:06] <CaptHindsight> what kernel version is xenomai up to?
[18:31:24] <pcw_home> 3.14 I think
[18:31:35] <CaptHindsight> on ARM and x86?
[18:31:40] <CaptHindsight> or just ARM?
[18:31:47] <pcw_home> both
[18:33:05] -!- WyrM has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[18:34:53] <seb_kuzminsky> jepler recently discovered that hal won't work in current arm processors, and can't easily be fixed
[18:35:34] <seb_kuzminsky> arm does not guarantee atomic updates of larger-than-32-bit variables, and hal uses 64-bit floating point numbers
[18:35:35] <CaptHindsight> last time we compared the 3 different RT kernels on the same hardware it was ~4x, 2x, 1x preempt_rt, xenomai, RTAI for latency
[18:36:12] <CaptHindsight> still the F###ing float problems on ARM
[18:36:46] -!- anarchos has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[18:37:23] <pcw_home> beware that the latency test does no hardware access so may give overly optimistic numbers.

[18:38:22] -!- lyzidiamond has quit [Remote host closed the connection]

[18:50:51] <CaptHindsight> the isolcpus= x x x is a temp workaround to fix the scheduler
[18:51:34] <CaptHindsight> the branch of RTAI at Shabbyx that worked with linuxcnc was deleted from that git last week for reasons unknown
[18:53:32] <CaptHindsight> 3.10, 3.12 and 3.14 kernels should work with the isolcpus=x x x (For example isolcpus=1,2,3 for a 4 core)

[19:19:46] <CaptHindsight> I think memleak decided to just keep his own repo going with what works and then pass that along to shabbyx and RTAI
[19:20:40] <CaptHindsight> if there was a buildbot for RTAI then it would be clear who broke what and when, but these isn't one

[19:41:38] <skunkworks_> seb_kuzminsky: the machine that has latency issue seems to be hardware somehow. We have the same motherboard on the k&t - it runs the latest weezy live image at around10us...
[19:43:04] <skunkworks_> (even though the latency is good with the 10.04 image...)
[19:45:18] <seb_kuzminsky> skunkworks_: i must have missed something - is there a computer that gets good latency with the 2.6.32 rtai kernel from 10.04 but bad latency with the 3.4.55 rtai kernel i just built?
[19:48:10] <skunkworks_> yes. 10.04 gets latency of 10us - new kernel is 50+us
[19:48:22] <seb_kuzminsky> bummer :-(
[19:49:12] <seb_kuzminsky> that should probably be a bug report to the rtai mailing list, but unfortunately the rtai/linux debs i built are of an old version that has since been removed from their repo :-(

[19:52:10] <seb_kuzminsky> i chose that version of rtai not because i'm a jerk, but because that was the only one i could find that would actually compile :-(
[19:52:50] <seb_kuzminsky> i think shabby didn't know his rtai didn't work, because they dont have a buildbot to test their branches for them
[19:53:34] <CaptHindsight> the Linuxcnc test system I was building managed to get a combo of cpu and chipset that has poor latency..
[19:53:48] <seb_kuzminsky> shabby has since re-re-re-re-rebased his repo, but i've run out of enthusiasm for being their buildbot, for the moment
[19:53:55] <seb_kuzminsky> maybe after 2.6 gets out...
[19:53:59] <CaptHindsight> I bring up a new one while waiting for some other new cpu's
[19:54:25] <skunkworks_> well - hold on. could it be the video? the live images uses nouveau - the 10.04 says nvidiafb, nouveau
[19:54:26] <CaptHindsight> I'll keep this dedicated to testing any new linuxcnc patches and kernels
[19:54:57] <skunkworks_> it seems to be related to video - you pull the latency test over glxgears - latency jumps
[19:55:08] <seb_kuzminsky> nvidia *is* known to make latency suck....
[19:55:32] <CaptHindsight> it'll have 10.04, precise and mint in both ubuntu and debian flavors, probably wheezy as well since it's become popular here
[19:56:55] <seb_kuzminsky> CaptHindsight: sounds like a useful test rig
[19:58:45] <skunkworks_> let me see what is on the k&t - it has a radion card in it
[19:59:26] <skunkworks_> so - maybe the wheezy nouveau driver has issues?
[19:59:52] -!- ink has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[20:00:45] <skunkworks_> can you change the driver to something more generic on the livecd easy?

[20:02:13] -!- kfoltman has quit [Quit: Ex-Chat]
[20:03:46] <skunkworks_> so - the systems that have bad latency (but good with the 10.04) are asus motherboards with some form of ati/amd video that use the nouveau kernel driver
[20:04:37] <skunkworks_> the one that works great has a radeon using the radeon kernel driver
[20:06:52] <seb_kuzminsky> skunkworks_: the only reason i said that is this:
[20:07:05] <seb_kuzminsky> (i was going to link to the wiki page, but the wiki seems to be down)
[20:07:12] <seb_kuzminsky> all of linuxcnc.org seems to be down for me
[20:07:55] <jepler> seb_kuzminsky: looks like the shared machine hosting most l.o webservices just rebooted, it has an uptime of 1 minute
[20:08:05] <seb_kuzminsky> i can get to git.linuxcnc.org but not www.linuxcnc.org
[20:08:08] <seb_kuzminsky> ah, ok
[20:08:12] <jepler> that machine hosts www.l.o and wiki.l.o
[20:08:16] <jepler> but yes, not git.l.o
[20:08:23] <seb_kuzminsky> right
[20:08:27] <jepler> hopefully it'll be back up soon
[20:09:16] <seb_kuzminsky> jepler: you found that arm doesn't do atomic 64-bit updates, right? only 32-bit updates are atomic?

[21:12:10] -!- skunkworks_ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[21:12:58] <jepler> seb_kuzminsky: my findding is that gcc generates volatile double stores into instructions that are not atomic. I don't know what appropriate 64 bit store exists, but it seems likely there is one.
[21:17:17] <jepler> http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-07/msg02234.html
[21:18:04] <seb_kuzminsky> Note: the only way to get atomic 64-bit memory accesses on ARM is to use ldrex/strex with a loop (ldrd and strd instructions are not guaranteed to appear atomic).
[21:18:08] <jepler> some arms have atomic 64 bit ops (strexd) but are unlikely to generate them for mere stores to volatile doubles.
[21:18:08] <seb_kuzminsky> http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pes20/cpp/cpp0xmappings.html

[21:21:32] <jepler> strexd can fail, apparently (has a register output for success/fail). so it's more complicated than 'emit strexd as store insn'
