[BPI-R4 Pro] General questions & Mainline

@frank-w

I hope andrew picks up my changes in his PR.

It looks like he doesn’t have enough time — he hasn’t made any changes for quite a while. I really hope he grants access to this PR or merges your changes so we can finally have a usable snapshot

[frank-w]

I do not want to hijack his PR,just help to move forward. He added mxl dt node patch in last week,maybe he had not much time last days. Keep calm the mxl driver is also not yet merged which is currently a requirement for r4pro PR.

@frank-w

Both sfp were working in my short test (as you can see in the comment i’ve linked). As i said not only muxing is missing…also driver for aeonsemi phy needs change to work with r4pro.

But yes, we have now a usable base where only the 2 phy-ports not yet usable.

But i have no response yet from dev who is my contact for the aeonsemi phy and i’m stuck there after some debugging.

edit: made a rebase to have less commits

lan ports(2.5g) work only in cooldboot, restart make it down. power off → boot → ports up and working. Restart → ports flaps toons of times and down

[frank-w]

Thank you for the report,the driver i try to add is for such tests…it will be replaced by mainline driver where such reports will improve this mainline driver.

[frank-w]

Are you able to add a line to bpi-r4pro dtsi file for mxl switch?

It looks like chads driver i use for openwrt uses different reset than i use for debian.

reset-gpios = <&pio 4 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

To the mxl properties

Press the [f] key and hit [enter] to enter failsafe mode

[frank-w]

yes,i know…you are fast with testing

already reverted it (pushed because other user wanted to try out )…currently try if it has to be active low

edit: active-low seems to work, also after reboot (reproduced your issue before)…only get vlan-error while bootup…not sure if it is critical…updated my tree with new patch

[frank-w]

After adding additional delay after the reset it looks stable so far,lower delay seems not working.

[frank-w]

Daniel told me that downstream driver should not merged to openwrt and he should finish upstream driver soon to add this to openwrt instead.

In the meantime i try to get R4Pro working with 7.0 where i experienced some issues (mxl switch detected,but no traffic,ethmux broken+reverted for now,phy not tested yet).

kernel: add DSA driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches by dangowrt · Pull Request #22612 · openwrt/openwrt

@frank-w what is the plan for the 1.0.78 firmware… it is not clear to me if it will be released or buildt completely from dango?

[frank-w]

I still use 1.0.70 and not yet done a firmware update yet (other firmwares are currently under nda),only got some information from daniel about this. We can only wait till maxlinear releases an offical firmware ot test with current installed version. Latest patches work so far (7.0-mxl branch in my repo),only noticed an issue with software bridge which could be caused by my outdated firnware. But i have not done extenaive tests yet,only bootup basic ip assignment on sw bridge (which does not get traffic),removed bridge and put ip on interface directly (worked so far). No iperf,vlan or similar yet.

[pameruoso (Pietro Ameruoso)]

now that the driver is merged and the statement from Daniel is very clear… at least the 1.0.78 is needed… I am wondering if @sinovoip as vendor of the rourter itself is in charge/available to provide the 1.0.78 firmware for ppl that bought the board. @sinovoip1

[jsaiko]

@sinovoip @sinovoip1 what is the status on firmware 1.0.78. I have a router sitting here that I purchased from you and it is essentially useless without the firmware.

[andrewjlamarche (Andrew LaMarche)]

Also looking for the latest firmware version for the MXL 2.5g switch.

[abs1ck (Sergey)]

Dear Manufacturer,

As a customer, we require a new version for the switch. We kindly ask you to provide it.

I believe ethmux has been merged into the kernel according to this article. Does this mean we are getting closer?

https://bootlin.com/blog/linux-7-0-released-bootlin-contributions-inside/

[frank-w]

No it is only the base for mux patches which are not yet sent (only 2 series between)

[Pavarell]

I’d appreciate your honest opinion. I bought a BPI-R4 Pro 8X (and then read the forum—very “insightful”), and I’ve already received it (version 1.0 board); I have 90 days to return it. My question is: is there any hope that this will be a stable device? Did I just buy a very expensive paperweight? I’m wondering whether to return it and order again or just wait.

I know it’s called a “development” board, but I think we all expect to be able to use this as a primary device and for it to be stable. I’ve been following the discussions on Maxilinear v1.0.78, and I have enormous respect for everyone working on GitHub in the OpenWRT context for your work. However, I’m not an expert in this field, so I’d like to ask you what you think.

[pameruoso (Pietro Ameruoso)]

let’s say that maxlinear releases the new firmware(who knows that). You would have a half good working board supported with main openwrt.

Half, because ATM there is no support for muxing the sfp/lan/wan ports at runtime. This means that if the pull request your are talking about on openwrt gets merged (again with the new firmware, who knows when it will come) you will only be able to use the SFPs + the 2.5 switch ports.

can you live with it for an indefinite amount of time? This series is stuck, and this is not even the final one to have muxing working. Netdev + BPF - Patchwork

Also somewhere i read there were issues with the 2 aeonsemi… so no-one knows when the aeonsemi and hot-muxing will be “stable” enough.

If you can live with all of this you keep it.
