After speaking with Milk-V about some of their RISC-V boards, they wanted to send over a Jupiter for me to test. I plan on running it through my usual tests, and also seeing how the board behaves as a regular ol' PC ITX board, testing front panel connectors, USB 3.0 and other IO. It also comes with a heatsink/fan (a pretty small one, mind you), and an IO shield. I haven't unboxed it fully but will hopefully do that tomorrow or Monday!

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

First test round will be with https://github.com/milkv-jupiter/jupiter-ubuntu-build/releases - Ubuntu 23.10 desktop release 1.0.8. I will flash it to a microSD card first.

First challenge: I can't determine what pins to use for a front panel power button connection on the F_PANEL header, so I opened the linked issue to see if someone can help with that.

I assume the board will just power on like a typical SBC when I apply DC_IN or PD power via the Type C port (according to their documentation. I will probably power the board with 12VDC for now, but may attach an ATX power supply to test that out too. [Edit: The board doesn't power on automatically, so I will need to figure out how to press the power button on the F_PANEL header I think.]

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

Apparently there's some amount of standardization in the world... got this from Milk-V:

XCQ92pg- jpg-small

It does seem to boot up immediately upon getting power. To hard-power-off, hold down the power button for 5 seconds (or maybe 6 or so). To boot up again, press the power button for 1-2s.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I can boot and log in via serial console; it also has an Ethernet connection, at 1 Gbps, and I can access it via UART or SSH, but so far I don't have an HDMI output working. xrandr gives me 'Couldn't open display'. I will try another HDMI monitor and see if that works. For some reason a lot of RISC-V boards don't seem to like my HP EliteDisplay E231.

The docs for the Jupiter describe using gparted to expand the SD partition, but I elected to use the RVSpace guide Extend Partition on SD Card or eMMC.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I was originally wondering if the fan or fan connector was dead, but no—just the heatsink seems to be good enough for 99% of the time—the fan will only spin up deep into a multicore test, and briefly at that. It's noticeable but not annoying the few times it does spin up.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I'm able to get the HDMI output to feed into OBS through my CamLink 4K, so it's probably an incompatibility with that HP monitor:

So far I'm unable to activate Bluetooth or see any WiFi settings, and I'm wondering if that's due to the Ubuntu image not including drivers or something. Need to do a little more exploration there.

I just noticed there's a newer release of the 23.10 desktop: https://github.com/milkv-jupiter/jupiter-ubuntu-build/releases/tag/v1.0.9

(As well as Bianbu). Fedora also has a RISC-V task force building images for the Jupiter—see the downloadable images here: https://mirror.iscas.ac.cn/fedora-riscv/dl/Milk-V/Jupiter/images/latest/

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

Notes on Bianbu OS minimal install:

As with the Ubuntu image, I'm not seeing the WiFi device, just the two Ethernet ports and a sit0 interface (something to do with IPv6 I think):

root@milkv-jupiter:~# nmcli d
DEVICE  TYPE      STATE      CONNECTION 
end0    ethernet  unmanaged  --         
end1    ethernet  unmanaged  --         
sit0    iptunnel  unmanaged  --         
lo      loopback  unmanaged  --   

Bluetooth looks to be present, at least:

root@milkv-jupiter:~# rfkill
ID TYPE      DEVICE         SOFT      HARD
 0 bluetooth spacemit-bt blocked unblocked

I opened the issue on the Milk-V community forum WiFi under Ubuntu not working.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I'm also re-running Geekbench 6 under the Bianbu minimal install to see if there's any difference between it and the Ubuntu release.

[Edit: Heh, identical result, 78/356.]

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I've also asked on the Community forum about the SATAPWR1 and 2 headers, which look like 4-pin ATX fan connectors, but I'm scared to plug in a fan to one of them in case the pinout is incorrect :)

It would be nice to provide a couple fan headers so I can run a case fan off the ITX board, but I'm not sure if those are wired up to any PWM controls.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

Fedora 40 with Gnome runs stable, if slow. No GPU drivers present in that build, it seems—everything goes to the CPU and runs a bit slowish. YouTube can kinda play back at 240p, whereas on Bianbu and Ubuntu I can hit 720p passably.

Screenshot 2024-07-22 at 1 52 22 PM

I'm also not able to enable Bluetooth (which seems to be present) or WiFi (which is not, like on the other OSes).

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I don't seem to be getting any GPU acceleration under Ubuntu or Bianbu, at least not by default... it seems like they should both be able to render a lot better using the built-in GPU (see Banana Pi BPI-F3 here).

Testing my 32GB eMMC module that I used before with Rock 5 B:

Adding the results for that and NVMe up in the OP.

I also tested Docker on this board, since that's something called out in the Jupiter's documentation. Installing was easy (install docker.io and that's it!). The hello-world image runs successfully, and there are a few hundred risc-v supporting images on Docker Hub already. I was able to run Debian and Alpine easy enough, though httpd (Apache) doesn't have a riscv64 build yet.

For many images, like Redis, they say riscv64 is in the supported architectures, but that's not on the main image. You have to instead use riscv64/redis, and there's no latest tag on that repo, so you have to dig around and find a tag you like, for example:

root@milkv-jupiter:~# docker run --name some-redis -d redis
Unable to find image 'redis:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/redis
docker: no matching manifest for linux/riscv64 in the manifest list entries.
See 'docker run --help'.
root@milkv-jupiter:~# docker run --name some-redis -d riscv64/redis
Unable to find image 'riscv64/redis:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: manifest for riscv64/redis:latest not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown.
See 'docker run --help'.

It feels like the armv7/arm64 situation 5-8 years ago currently; if you do a lot with containers, expect to have to build your own on top of the primitives for a while, yet. And some software compiles, some doesn't (without some tweaking), so it's not for the 'driveby sysadmin' yet, you have to actually know the basics to be productive.

Wrote up a blog post on it: The state of Docker on popular RISC-V platforms.

Testing an old AMD R5 230 2GB GPU, I plugged it into the board while powered off, and was surprised to see the fan spin up—thus I opened PCIe slot powered even when Jupiter is powered off.

The system boots with the card installed, and dmesg shows:

I am going to try this k1-gpu branch to see if I can get the AMD GPU to work in Bianbu Linux. That's a fork of Bianbu Linux 6.1, and the patch seems to perform a few of the write-combining hacks that we had to do for radeon/amdgpu for Arm as well.

For GPU testing, the command provided by SpaceMIT is as follows:

sudo apt install glmark2-es2-wayland
glmark2-es2-wayland --run-forever
hokamilkv commented 1 month ago

I was originally wondering if the fan or fan connector was dead, but no—just the heatsink seems to be good enough for 99% of the time—the fan will only spin up deep into a multicore test, and briefly at that. It's noticeable but not annoying the few times it does spin up.

Our default logic is to turn on the fan when the core temperature reaches above 60 degrees. We will update to PWM speed regulation in later versions.

You can also watch the gpu status:

@carbonfix - Thanks! I was able to get a much more reasonable score of 459 with that!

Regarding WiFi, under Bianbu I'm seeing the following in dmesg:

Memory performance (especially latency) is not that great (well, bad). Are the Milk-V guys aware of this and might provide 'better' DRAM initialization code?

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

@ThomasKaiser - They are watching this thread, would be good to hear their thoughts—not sure if this is the first board they're using the Spacemit SoC with, but I wonder if it's an issue with Spacemit's controller or with something more under their control.

ThomasKaiser commented 1 month ago

I'm also re-running Geekbench 6

Just why? By looking at https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/compare/6979805?baseline=5769184 it's 100% obvious that Geekbench on RISC-V is not capable to generate any meaningful numbers that would represent anything 'real-world performance'. It's just nonsense.

Icenowy commented 1 month ago

@geerlingguy Currently it's needed to replace Mesa with a genuine copy from a generic distro to use external GPU (because the Mesa shipped with Bianbu is polluted by PowerVR driver, and its non-PowerVR-driver part seems to be broken). I didn't try this (because I just replaced the whole distro rootfs to test GPU support).

ThomasKaiser commented 1 month ago

@geerlingguy it should be under their control since we can compare with another K1 equipped thingy limited to 1.6 GHz though. When looking at memory latency accesses at 1M or above are lower on the Jupiter than on the BPi F3 while below it's the other way around (internal cache and higher clockspeeds).

Because people will ask regardless, and I like having the data, regardless of the fitness of Geekbench 6 as a universal benchmarking tool :)

The reason I run a few dozen other tests too is because:

  1. Having one simple benchmark is fun for giggles, but having an array of more real-world examples like real code compilation, glmark, memory test, MP3/MP4 transcoding, etc. is better.
  2. Different tests show differences in architecture differently :D

To that point, I still can't run a few common benchmarks (like PTS tests) because they aren't set up for RISC-V. Whether that reflects real-world performance ('0' vs some metric that is above '0') is immaterial—instead, it reflects reality: if you buy one of these boards today, the performance might as well be 0 if you can't compile or run software the same as you can on x86 and Arm currently. At least, if you're not willing to roll up your sleeves and patch makefiles, compile newer versions than are available in repositories, build your own containers, etc.

geerlingguy commented 1 month ago

I have a new board today, and here are a few notes:

First, idle power draw as tested with a USB-C power adapter is slightly higher from the wall (maybe slightly less efficient supply), measuring 5W idle, 10W under stress-ng all cores:

Second, WiFi works (yay!), so now I can run my network performance tests with WiFi instead of wired.

Try this benchmark on your systems. https://github.com/PlummersSoftwareLLC/Primes/tree/drag-race/PrimeCPP/solution_2 Just tried it on my Risc-v VisionFive 2 It scores better than the PI 4 in this test. See Below

I got the idea to run it on my system after watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lYX0Eo4cbE&t=1s
