Issues with am33x-v3.7 #8

Closed JoseGoncalves closed 4 years ago

JoseGoncalves commented 11 years ago

I've compiled a 3.7 kernel for my beaglebone and found the following issues:

  1. On reboot the kernel causes a segmentation fault somewhere at USB shutdown.
  2. There is some issue with eth0 MAC config, because I'm getting a random MAC instead of the fixed one set by udev rule with 3.2.
  3. There is no support for AM3359 built-in RTC. I've tried to add the RTC patches from https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.7/patches/rtc but they cause a segfault when booting the kernel.
  4. The cape discovery process on a capeless board is causing about 7 seconds delay on a capeless board booting (this delay was not visible in 3.2).
  5. Only UART0 (console) is working. The others are not initialized (can't see them on /proc/iomem).

Best regards, José Gonçalves

So far, Issues 2: MAC 4: Slow Cape discovery are resolved in the am33x-v3.8 branch.. The reboot lockup is still the most annoying problem..
