Introduce ROCK 5B - ARM Desktop level SBC

#922

Thank you for the reply. I appreciate the clarification.

#923

wow cool,
i didnt think i will get my email in october
and thankyou for the reply

#924

sorry but it has no lane information

#925

What I pasted is what I got :man_shrugging:

Are there any other commands I can try?

#926

maybe this could work: sudo lspci -nv
i think the rock 5b doesnt support accesing these infos

#927

Ameridroid said in an email to me. shipping will be starting anywhere from the 20th - 31th of october.
but i still haven’t received an email with tracking info yet…

#928

We are waiting to find out if the factory is sending the emails with the tracking information or if they will send the tracking information to us so we can contact our customers.

#929

Successifully started Debian 11 from eMMC. Intel AX210NGW WIFI 6E m.2 adapter started after sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, NVME disk detected. I connected 4k signal to HDMI input and try to output signal with QT V4L2 test utility but it show’s black screen over OpenGL. Seem’s like video acceleration doesn’t work:
rock@rock-5b:~$ glxgears
libGL error: failed to create dri screen
libGL error: failed to load driver: rockchip
libGL error: failed to create dri screen

1383 frames in 5.0 seconds = 276.496 FPS

#930

Is it es2gears you need as the mali blob is only opengl-es2?
mesa-utils-extra

#931

I forgot about vblank_mode=0 glxgears. ~300fps, es2gears given 52 fps. I compire with raspberry p4 - more than 850 fps in two cases.

#932

glmark2-es2 is in the repo and think already installed as forgot if I did or not.

The FPS & glmark2 with the current mali blob seems fairly stinky to be honest and guess is still work in progress.
The Mesa drivers for the G52mp4 glmark2-es2 are quite a bit faster than what we currently have and the A311D implementation was supposed to be sub par, so dunno.
The Linux results don’t seem to correlate to what they where posting with Android which might not anyway, but same glmark2-es2 slower than the G52mp4 glmark2-es2 is a bit of a !?!
The Hardware design of the G610 much favors Vulcan so maybe we are using the wrong benches.

#933

In this case, it’s less the hardware design than the software design.

Android seems to prefer explicit sync for inter-process synchronisation, whereas Xorg and some Wayland compositors rely only on implicit sync. kbase had some support for implicit sync with older GPUs, but for CSF GPUs like the Mali-G610 it’s completely gone, so only explicit synchronisation through passing sync FDs is possible.

What that means is that compositors have no idea when they can start using a surface passed from an application, and so immediately start rendering. If the application is still rendering then that causes problems, but drivers work around that by effectively doing a glFinish and waiting for rendering to finish before passing the frame on to the compositor. This means that the CPU and GPU cannot work in parallel, which hurts performance a lot.

I think the Wayland blob might work around this problem somehow, but I’m not entirely sure.

(IIRC non-free nvidia drivers also use explicit sync exclusively, which causes a lot of problems.)

#934

I noticed the basics of the rk3588 have been pushed to Linux Next so it will boot and expecting or at least hoping Alyssa & co might be having a look also.
I have seen your posts and great work but much past my knowledge.

I eventually got ArmNN delegate working with their Wav2Letter example which with CpuAcc gets all cores going at about 55%, with the GpuAcc I was sort of confused as maybe a tad faster but all it seemed to do was drop all cores by about 5%, which I found rather underwhelming but maybe my misunderstanding of the G610s ML capability or the manner ArmNN works, but its OpenCl based and maybe that also is lack lustre.
Command Stream Frontend which is a new part of Valhall…
Now I get what the csffw.bin binary is as was wondering why an additional binary to the mali but does that not mean CFS & Driver now run in separate processes?

I just remember the Arm sales blurb that often repeated CSF was to align with Vulkan more hence why that stuck in my head.

It does seem like we are seeing the true capability on Android but so far its just not plumbed in right on Linux… ?

#935

That binary is firmware for a Cortex-M7 MCU that is inside the GPU. It handles a bunch of tasks that the kernel cannot do because of the latency, as it is quite difficult to access GPU memory from the CPU—the memory first needs to be mapped into the kernel address space with the correct attributes, and then every access is slow because there is no coherency with the GPU.

The MCU solves this by sharing an L2 cache with the GPU to get coherency, and including a mechanism for mapping GPU memory into its own address space in just a few nanoseconds. This makes it quite easy to access GPU memory, and is what makes the Command Stream Frontend possible.

Tasks that were previously done on the CPU before job submission can now be handled by the command stream processor, but that processor frequently has to interrupt the MCU to get assistance with handling an instruction. If it had to go all the way to the kernel, then the end result would be worse than the old “Job Manager” GPUs.

(I think that early prototypes of CSF might have used shader cores to try to run the firmware, but I am not very sure. But if that was tried, I bet Arm found out pretty quickly that debugging was too hard. RK3588 actually exposes a standard MCU debugger interface for the GPU, but from the Rock 5 schematics I don’t think it’s very easily accessible. Self-hosted debug works anyhow.)

#936

Why exactly? See here for example… If you ask people for lspci output you should mention sudo and/or root as well :slight_smile:

#937

yes i messed up you need to run it with sudo or as root this command should work (and please post the output):

sudo lspci -vv

and sorry

#938

I am not really sure, all I know is that currently the implementation has a 3rd gen Valhall running slower than a 2nd gen Bifrost on a SoC that got criticism of the GPU being quite slow for spec.
Currently the driver in terms of performance is bad as it runs and works, but results are really bad to the levels we should be expecting .
That is with a 1000 Mhz clock rate that must be at the absolute max this thing can run, and 4 generations of increment of some big claims by Arm but it runs slower than a G52mp4 and that is wow bad.

https://developer.arm.com/documentation/102812/0102/GPU-activity?lang=en

I used Armbian in the below due to ppa:liujianfeng1994/panfork-mesa

It means Wayland and is a touch faster now than a g52mp4 but prob still quite a way off what I expected and not exactly sure what driver its using does that use libEGL.so.1 or libEGL_mesa.so.0?
I might have a go with ArmNN again but may end up in dependency hell as dunno if they stopped with 20.04

Doesn’t seem all that stable though.

#939

Good to know, pre-ordered mine from allnet on 20th April and still waiting to place my order (for delivery to France too).
This is going to replace my current setup which urgently needs an upgrade and serve as an all purpose machine:

  • 4G + Wifi router
  • server (development, …)

Just wondering if 8GB version I took will be enough. Are we able to change RAM quantity at ordering time?

#940

you cant change the ram quantity at ordering time if the coupon should be still valid
but you can upgrade the ram by soldering on a new set of ram chips WARNING thats very dificoult and could destroy your rock 5b

#941

ok will probably avoid upgrading ram for now. but good to know in case I need it in future
