10:04 <Hypfer> Are there any newer allwinner kernel sources than linux 4.x somewhere on the internet? https://github.com/qiaoweibiao/T507_Kernel/ is the newest I found so far

15:37 <apritzel> Hypfer: for which SoC, specifically? I think for the newer SoCs (like H616/T507) AW provided some v6.x sources?

15:38 <apritzel> Hypfer: but keep in mind that "more recent kernel version" does not mean too much, it's still mostly the same hideous hacks, just rebased

16:25 <Hypfer> apritzel To resolve the x/y question: What i'm actually looking for are the nand parameters for SkyHigh S34ML02G3 nand, which seems to be fairly recent and thus unsupported by the kernel used

16:26 <Hypfer> The linked repo contains those for the S34ML02G2 but not G3 in the nand_id2.c

16:29 <Hypfer> Someone who actually has a clue about this could probably also deduce them from the spec pdf I suppose

16:30 <Hypfer> What I did find is that it apparently comes with internal ECC that can't be disabled but no clue what to make out of that information

17:07 <apritzel> Hypfer: I have no practical experience with NAND, just know enough to stay away from it. From what I know, we don't really support raw NAND on sunxi in mainline, in general, especially not on halfway modern SoCs and with non-SLC chips.

17:30 <Hypfer> apritzel Understandable. I'd want to stay as far away as possible from non-self-managing flash too

17:32 <apritzel> I think other people in here have much knowledge about it. AFAIK what works is the SLC flash on the CHIP board (https://linux-sunxi.org/NextThingCo_CHIP), which is an almost 9 year old board with an A13 SoC.

17:34 <apritzel> We don't even have the DT nodes for the NAND controller in recent SoCs, though this might be the least of our problems

19:56 <BroderTuck> mainline linux uses a different layout than theAllwinner stuff anyway, so it can avoid being usable as a rescue system...
