<Fl1tzi[m]> Hey did not really look in the development stage of asahi recently but after about a month now I still don't see any kind of updates on my issue on gh. Is currently anyone online who knows why no one is wanting to fix it? https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/issues/21

<richardburleigh> Is the lack of eGPU support on M1 Macs at the hardware or software level? Yeah they have terrible bandwidth, but would be great for prototyping ML code with a hard CUDA dependency
<bvaa[m]> i heard some people install debian from asahi? how does that work? doesn't m1 need a custom kernel etc?
<AdryzzOLEDEdition[m]> <richardburleigh> "Is the lack of eGPU support on M..." <- if it supports TB4 then it has to support PCIe => eGPU
Ry_Darcy has joined #asahi
<richardburleigh> Thanks Adryzz, good call!
<sven> It’s not true though
<sven> there might be some limitations on that pcie bus that breaks eGPus
<sven> we don’t know yet but I wouldn’t get my hopes up
<sven> we already know that we can likely only make that pcie memory with a specific type and that the gpu drivers want a different memory type
bpye has joined #asahi
<bvaa[m]> richardburleigh: thx
<AdryzzOLEDEdition[m]> i mean that as theoretical support, just like how the CM4 supports any PCIe device but then a lot of them just refuse to work

<chadmed> the problem with GPUs is that the PCIe spec calls for a 64-bit DMA window
<chadmed> now youd _think_ that multi billion dollar companies would be capable of following this spec
<chadmed> but theyre not
<chadmed> because Intel decided that a 40 bit DMA controller was plenty
<chadmed> so of course all the GPU AIBs just use 40-bit controllers on their cards, because who would ever want to use a PCIe card in something other than an x86 PC

<chadmed> basically YMMV with GPUs if we can get them working at all
<chadmed> most AMD reference models and workstation cards will probably work fine
<chadmed> you have no real chance with nvidia cards of course since their drivers are amd64 blobs

<sven> oh, was it just for the sd card reader? I thought every non-aligned read didn’t work
<maz> device mappings don't allow non-aligned accesses. as for non-32bit accesses, it isn't clear to me whether that's a specific device problem, or something more general. Does USB or TG3 use any sub-32bit access?

<sven> note that usb 3 != thunderbolt or usb4
<sven> what these ports can’t do in usb 3 mode seems to be lane bonding which is required for 20 Gbps
<sven> and that blog post is already confused by the usb naming at the beginning. you can have 3.2 ports than can only do 10 Gbps just fine.

<TheLink> is lane bonding a hardware or a firmware feature?
<sven> usb 3 mode doesn’t require any firmware to be loaded. there might be some internal ROMs but those are unchangable anyway
<sven> and usb4 mode uses both lanes anyway
<sven> (this only applies to the actual usb4/tbt ports. some macs (iMac and Mac studio I think) also have usb 3 ports that are different)
<TheLink> ok

<neggles> hmm. the author of this article has been confused by USB-IF, and has also managed to make the overwhelming majority of their results entirely moot.
<neggles> > A range of different external SSDs was used, using Crucial and Samsung SATA SSDs. In personal testing, these were mounted in basic UGREEN and similar cases claimed to be compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 2.
<neggles> if all the SSDs you test with are in SATA drive enclosures, you're never going to see north of 5Gbps throughput regardless of how much bandwidth the port has
<neggles> and hidden towards the end is an admission of the problem and that their results are invalid... > However, a Sabrent+Samsung NVMe conforming to USB 3.2 was found to connect at 10 Gb/s, and returned a read rate of 911 MB/s and write of 973 MB/s.
<neggles> IOW, "connecting a 6Gbps-at-best-but-not-really SATA SSD to a 10Gbps USB port doesn't make it faster"...
<sven> one of the results also sounds like a bad cable because it falls back to what suspiciously is usb 2 speed
<neggles> yeah, the ~200mbps from the front USB-C port
<neggles> that's either a bad cable/bad connection, or a bug in the driver for the M1 Max studio's front USB-only ports
<sven> yeah
<sven> m1 max should have USB ports at the front that are connected via a third party controller attached over pcie iirc
<sven> so my money is in a bad cable

wouter has quit [Quit: leaving]
<marcan> my only ideas are either 1) apple is using cheap old stock of those chips with a bug or something, or missing an EEPROM with a fix, or some similar cost cutting reason, or 2) the chips are buggy and report completions for <32bit in a noncompliant way that *some* root ports accept but M1 doesn't, or 3) M1 does request TLPs for <32bit in a different (hopefully still compliant) way that these chips hate
yuyichao has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<marcan> richardburleigh: also, if you want CUDA, that means you'll be using the nvidia proprietary driver, and there is a ~0% chance nvidia cares about issues specific to these ARM64 platforms (e.g. 16K pages), and a good chance they will happen, and ~no chance of fixing them in their blob driver
<marcan> so even if eGPUs can be made to work with open drivers (nouveau/amdgpu), chances are even slimmer for nvidia blobs, and most people here don't care about them and won't spend any time on them either
<tpw_rules> does nvidia publish amd64 drivers for anything other than jetsons anyway?
<tpw_rules> arm64*
<marcan> yes
<jannau> iirc the driver restricts afaik the supported CPU's though: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/aarch64/450.51/README/minimumrequirements.html lists just x-gene and thunderx but that might be outdated. does aws offer gravitron2 instances with nvidia cards?
<jannau> the binary driver refuses work on the cortex-a72 based honeycomb lx2
<marcan> oh, it actually has a whitelist?
<marcan> well, no chance then
<jannau> as far as I know yes

<Cy8aer[m]> Lucy: But this should be very transparent then.
<Cy8aer[m]> As Glanzmann says: The only package which is "special" is the kernel. All other debian stuff can simply be used.
<sven> give it another few months and we'll hopefully have most things upstream and then even the kernel won't be special anymore

<j`ey> Glanzmann: sorry to hear that
<Glanzmann> opticron: About the distroboot_cmd that probably means the stub is to old. I have cherry picked the patch that patch. https://tg.st/u/102777230b057efa00fe39c7e545e13ddead1177.patch
<Glanzmann> j`ey: Thank you. We miss him a lot. https://www.glanzmann.de/
<Glanzmann> opticron: My stub was also too old. Since most people run probably Debian alone, maybe I should undo the patch for now and add it later.
<bluetail[m]> Glanzmann: my condolences. I didnt knew Peter but one thing is for sure - I think both of you are contributing for the better. I don't have contact to my own father due to corruption. I hope you had a good time with him and could enjoy it. When I think of you, I often adore your capability/intellect. Perhaps I'm someday a bit more like you.

<JohnAntoine> Did any one manage to get LXD and linux containers running? I know about the 16k page size problem, but I'm not sure if there's a workaround
<j`ey> lxd has issues with page sizes?
<JohnAntoine> It's mentioned that it affects "general containerization" or something like that
<j`ey> where?
<mps> last time I tested something with docker it worked
<JohnAntoine> I tried LXD and it didn't initialize the daemon, so I assumed it's because of that issue
<j`ey> JohnAntoine: theres no issue with containers/VMs, not sure where you read that
<JohnAntoine> "There is a category of software that will likely never support 16K page sizes: certain emulators and compatibility layers, including FEX. Android is also affected, in case someone wants to try running it natively some day. For users of these tools, we will provide 4K page size kernels in the future, once the kernel changes that make this possible are ready for upstreaming."
<JohnAntoine> that's the source of my assumption
<j`ey> emulator, not container
<JohnAntoine> I lumped LXD with the category of emulation
<j`ey> its not in that category!
<JohnAntoine> Well, I wanted to see it anyone managed to get LXD working
<JohnAntoine> either in container mode or in VM mode
<mps> JohnAntoine: fyi qemu works
<mps> if that could be ok for you
<JohnAntoine> I could try pure QEMU, but it is much easier to manage things through LXD
<JohnAntoine> I'll try again sometime today and get back here with results

<AndyzzstuMak[m]> Hi, I just started downloading asahi on my 2020 Macbook Pro. How long does it take to create a partition? My computer has been frozen on Mission Control for over an hour and I can't get out of it. Is there anyway I can resolve this? Thanks.
<nicolas17> it's normal (and Apple's fault) that resizing partitions freezes the system
<nicolas17> I don't know how long it takes, it might depend on how much data you have, or even on how much data was physically located "later" in the disk so it needs to be moved
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> I think it said it was freeing up 200GB. I don't think it should take 2 hours tho.
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> I can't see an update on the terminal window either, as it's been stuck on the same screen as well.
<neggles> yeah it definitely shouldn’t take 2 hours
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> I don't know what could unfreeze it besides powering off, which im not supposed to do
<tpw_rules> i think it can take that long in some cases
<nicolas17> if it is indeed still resizing the filesystem, powering it off is almost guaranteed data corruption
<tpw_rules> apple's stuff warns "minutes or hours"
<neggles> i’m afraid I don’t really know either, but yeah turning it off during a resize has a nonzero chance of going horribly wrong
<neggles> s/nonzero/significant
<tpw_rules> did it tell you if it completed the filesystem check? or can you not see the terminal?
<neggles> tpw_rules: hours if you’re unfortunate enough to be running it on an Intel mac with a HDD :P
<neggles> doesn’t mean it can’t still be doing it though
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> So when i first went into mission control, it was at 15%. But since it's been frozen, it hasn't changed at all in the past 2 hours.
<tpw_rules> touching it was your mistake
<neggles> ^
<tpw_rules> but yeah, i really wouldn't power it off.
<nicolas17> while it's resizing the partition, nothing else can access the disk, opening mission control probably caused a disk read and made everything freeze until the resize finishes
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> welp, we'll see what happens, but i don't think it's going anywhere
<neggles> maybe a race condition of sorts, MC trying to do a read/write which won’t complete but is also blocking resize completion
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> im going to let it sit for at least another 30ish mins
<neggles> and now for the words everyone hates to hear: do you have a backup?
user982492 has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> no, but i had nothing important on it, as i had just deleted like 300gb worth of stuff before trying to install asahi
<tpw_rules> do you have another computer if it gets really screwed and you have to DFU restore it?
<neggles> welp. leave it as long as you feel is reasonable then hard poweroff
<neggles> the recovery volumes should all be fine in theory
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> sleep wouldn't do anything rright?
<neggles> sleep would, if anything, make it worse
<neggles> i doubt it would actually go to sleep
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> yeah, that makes sense
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> right now im on my school chromebook, so i dont think it can restore anything
<neggles> at this point it’s “wait as long as you feel is justified, then cross your fingers and reboot it”
<nicolas17> tpw_rules: recoveryOS *should* be fine right? so it shouldn't need DFU
<tpw_rules> i think so but someone came in the other day where it didn't seem to be, or at least they didn't know how to access it
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> if i shutdown, do i let it go into recovery mode?
<neggles> AndyzzstuMak[m]: I’d just smother it with a pillow (hold power till off) then turn it back on and see what it does
<neggles> if it goes back into recovery and the volume still exists you’ll want to run first aid on it probably
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> ok yeah, so i held power and it shutdown and turned back on again by itself
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> i think its fine
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> im going to run disk utility first aid on it right now
<tpw_rules> you might as well run the resize, the first stage is to do a first aid
<tpw_rules> you might not have even made it past that
<tpw_rules> but this time close all your apps and don't touch it and it won't freeze
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> alright
<neggles> I would've thought doing the resize from recovery would've been the way to go? but I still don't actually have an AS machine heh
<neggles> (i.e. the instructions definitely know better than me)
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> I think it's all set. Restarted the installer and it's now at 50% after like 3 mins.
<AndyzzstuMak[m]> Thanks everyone!
