06:12 <bauen1> apritzel: thanks, seems i'm getting around 27MB/s sequential read from the usb, so not perfect ; so it's probably encryption

07:49 <cyrozap> apritzel: SD boot with the old U-Boot compiled with GCC 12.1.0 works fine. FEL boot with that same binary fails.

07:51 <cyrozap> Also, for what it's worth, the latest U-Boot compiled with GCC 12.1.0 also works fine from SD.

07:54 <cyrozap> And using the DTB from U-Boot, I can even boot a mainline kernel.

08:03 <jernej> Kernel should be always able to boot with old DT (backward compatibility). Other direction is not guaranteed (forward compatibility).

08:55 <cyrozap> jernej: Right, I just meant that I was able to boot the kernel, since there's no DTS for my board (or the H616 SoC) in mainline yet.

08:57 <cyrozap> apritzel: I think you were offline when I sent my last messages, but to summarize them: yes, booting from SD works with all the versions of U-Boot/GCC I've tried, it's just FEL that for some reason isn't working.

13:55 <apritzel> cyrozap: thanks for the update. I am about to compile a GCC 12 here to reproduce that

20:28 <apritzel> cyrozap: so I tried, but can't reproduce it

20:28 <apritzel> I took GCC 12.1.0 from kernel.org, and compiled U-Boot and TF-A with that, for the H616 X96 Mate TV box

20:29 <apritzel> and FEL boot into the U-Boot prompt worked fine there

22:18 <cyrozap> apritzel: Thank you for trying to reproduce the issue. Want me to send you the working and non-working U-Boot binaries I built? Maybe it's my hardware setup that's causing problems with one binary but not the other.

22:20 <cyrozap> I'm thinking that if both binaries work for you, then the issue is with my hardware, and if the new one fails, then the issue is with my toolchain.

22:22 <cyrozap> I'm doing this on the Orange Pi Zero2, btw.

22:22 <cyrozap> Not sure if that might make a difference.

23:10 <apritzel> cyrozap: does it already break in the SPL, before it returns? So when you do "sunxi-fel spl spl/sunxi-spl.bin", does it return cleanly?

23:11 <apritzel> my OpiZero2 seems broken, unfortunately, so I am using some H616 TV box

23:17 <cyrozap> apritzel: No, that command results in the same error. Building U-Boot with DEBUG=1, the last line printed on the UART is "Returning to FEL sp=53a18, lr=53ad8".

23:21 <apritzel> cyrozap: can you send me just that SPL file?

23:22 <apritzel> I can also send you mine ...

23:24 <apritzel> cyrozap: try with one, with just the "spl" command: https://paste.c-net.org/RawdonPhoney
