hello everyone,

I have pandaboard ES REV B1.

on the board runs Linux PB 3.4.0-1491-omap4.

I face this problem, that the mouse and browser not correctly responsive, even if I open a trailer on youtube I will just a black window.

on the way to find out the problem, I find in /var/log/syslog this message:

 omap_sr_disable: omap_sr struct for sr_wakeup not found

my question what is th omap_sr? which role play the sr_wakeup? how I can resolve this issue?

the bootarg for my system is:

setenv bootargs quiet rw fixrtc mem=1G@0x80000000 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 console=ttyO2,115200n8 omapdss.def_disp=dvi rootwait ip=dhcp cgroup_disable=memory


thanks in advance for any help2364.syslog.txt

    Hello Kmrish,

    The answers on your questions:

    #Q1: what is the omap_sr?

    - omap_sr comes from SmartReflex, which is a power-management technique used for controlling the operating voltage of a device to reduce its active power consumption.

     omap_sr is a structure defined in /arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c

    struct omap_sr {
        struct list_head        node;
        struct platform_device        *pdev;
        struct omap_sr_nvalue_table    *nvalue_table;
        struct voltagedomain        *voltdm;
        struct dentry            *dbg_dir;
        unsigned int            irq;
        int                srid;
        int                ip_type;
        int                nvalue_count;
        bool                autocomp_active; /* current state  */
        bool                autocomp_state;  /*for suspend/resume*/
        int                lvt_nvalue_count;
        bool                lvt_sensor;
        u32                clk_length;
        u32                err_weight;
        u32                err_minlimit;
        u32                err_maxlimit;
        u32                accum_data;
        u32                senn_avgweight;
        u32                senp_avgweight;
        u32                senp_mod;
        u32                senn_mod;
        void __iomem            *base;
        struct omap_sr_nvalue_table    *lvt_nvalue_table;
    };

    All of the elements in this structure correspond to settings in SmartReflex registers - see section 3.13.2.1 SR Register Summary in OMAP4460 TRM

    The Smartreflex provides options for achieving optimal performance/power and voltage control. For more information about Smartreflex refer to section 3.1.1.3.3 AVS Overview in OMAP4460 TRM.

    #Q2: which role play the sr_wakeup?

    The sr_wakeup is used to wake-up the SmartReflex modules, for example from OFF state to ON state.  

    Setup the wakeup voltage to allow immediate going to OFF and on - Pending twl and voltage layer cleanups.
    This is necessary, as this is not done as part of regular DVFS flow. vc_setup_on_voltage(voltdm, volt_data->volt_calibrated);

    void voltdm_pwrdm_enable(struct voltagedomain *voltdm)
    {
        if (atomic_inc_return(&voltdm->usecount) == 1) {
            if (voltdm->wakeup)
                voltdm->wakeup(voltdm);
            omap_sr_enable(voltdm);
        }
    }

    See the following link with description of Smartreflex, voltage control software.

    http://omappedia.org/wiki/SR_Voltage_Control_Migration

    The register SRn.ERRCONFIG[26] WAKEUPENABLE - enables/disables wake-up feature of SmartReflex modules.

    #Q3: how I can resolve this issue?

    I also have the message [    0.000000] omap_sr_disable: omap_sr struct for sr_wakeup not found, however my Pandaboard runs correctly.

    I assume that your problem with youtube trailer doesn't caused by Smartreflex driver.
    Check your implemented codecs in your SW.

    Check the settings of following registers:

    PRM_VOLTSETUP_CORE_OFF
    PRM_VOLTSETUP_MPU_OFF
    PRM_VOLTSETUP_IVA_OFF
    PRM_VOLTSETUP_CORE_RET_SLEEP
    PRM_VOLTSETUP_MPU_RET_SLEEP
    PRM_VOLTSETUP_IVA_RET_SLEEP

    And configure them for your use case.

    Check if your SmartReflex modules are enable by registers:

    CM_ALWON_SR_CORE_CLKCTRL[1:0] MODULEMODE
    CM_ALWON_SR_IVA_CLKCTRL[1:0] MODULEMODE
    CM_ALWON_SR_MPU_CLKCTRL[1:0] MODULEMODE
    CM_ALWON_CLKSTCTRL

    Best regards,

    Yanko

    Thank for your Answer!

    Now I am sure that my problem isn't the opam-sr.

    I am a beginner therefor excuse me to ask you how I can check the implemented codecs?.

    I ask me, how can it be that the omap4 processor (which is one of the best processor) so slowly?

    I can't image that my Panda Board freeze constantly about 5 sec, whenever I move the mouse.

    If I open the iTunes Movie trailers and go to play any trailer  I will dont see  anything except a black window. and sometime crash the system when I click on play-button.

    I need help to eliminate these issues.

    Could you tell me please where and how can I find solution.?

    Thanks

    Hello Kmrish,

    Would you explain what is the operating systems running on your panda board?

    Android (4AJ.2.2_OMAP4_Jelly_Bean_Panda_Notes) or Ubuntu?

    Could you give more information about the player, which we use to play trailer?

    Which browser you use on your board? 

    I recommend following:

    1. For hardware accelerated video playback and camera usage you have to use proper Ducati binary. Found here ducati-m3.bin Download the ducati-m3.bin for the 4AJ.2.2 release and place binary in system/vendor/firmware/ :

    cp <location-of-downloaded-ducati-bin>/4AJ.2.2_Blaze_ducati-m3.bin ${MYDROID}/out/target/product/panda/system/vendor/firmware/ducati-m3.bin3

    2. Check your codecs in /mydroid/frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/codecs, if use Android

    3. Check your OMX integration as use information in this link http://www.omappedia.com/wiki/Gstreamer_overview

    4. Have a look in this thread: http://e2e.ti.com/support/omap/f/849/t/202017.aspx

    Best regards,

    Yanko

    Hello  Yanko!

    Thank you for your consideration
    .1)Would you explain what is the operating systems running on your panda board?

    on my Pandaboard (ES REV B1) runs

    "Linux PB 3.4.0-1491-omap4 #3-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Fri Dec 6 10:13:20 UTC 2013 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux" -> uname -a

    Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l -> Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l

    2)Could you give more information about the player, which we use to play trailer?

    At the beginning I couldn't play any videos ; neither from Youtube.con nor from iTunes Movie Trailers(trailer.apple.com).

    Later I have installed "browser-plugin-gnash", which enables me to play a video just from youtube.com. Nevertheless I still not able to see the video. when I go to Play-button to run the trailer/video it seems so, that the video runs normally (I can see that the time-counter of the Video-duration counts down) however the window still black.

    If I want to run any trailer from iTunes Movie, I will just see a black window without any evidence.

    Anyway that is the list of : dpkg -l |grep player

    3)Which browser you use on your board? 

    I use the Browser : Mozilla Firefox 28.0


    Again I thank you very much for your interesting to help me.

    your recommendations are very important for me and I will perform every point of theirs.

    I let you to know what is the effect after that.

    Hello Yanko Again,

    about the first one of your recommendation I don't find any ducati.m3.bin for Panda-board, moreover there is an attention message:

    (Please note that this is a totally OUTDATED, OBSOLETE and UNSUPPORTED Android 2.2 Froyo build for the Panda-board, proceed on your own risk and do not assume to get any further support!)

    However I found another share on TI.com. where the asker asked: where I can get the Panda board's ducati-m3.bin version? The answer of his question was: You can use the ducati binary from Blaze in same release, in this case 4AI.1.4.

    My question for you is: can I use the ducati binary from Blaze, If on my PandaBoard runs Ubuntu.12.04LTS? if yes then in which release should I use for  Pandaboard, which has Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5?

    Hello Kmrish,

    I have made an investigation about your question.

    I think that you must install only OMAP additional packages, which include graphic drivers.

    Try to apply the steps described in this link: http://omapedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_PPA

    Enable Universe and Multiverse Repositories on your PandaBoard

    Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the deb lines which contain reference to universe and multiverse.

    Use with caution:

    sudo sed --in-place=.bak -e 's/^# \(deb.*\)/\1/' /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
    Install the OMAP4 development PPA
    sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiomap-dev/release
sudo apt-get update
    Installing OMAP4 addons
    sudo apt-get install ubuntu-omap4-extras

    Make it two. It's going to be a while.

    Restart when done
    The video output shall now be available on the HDMI out port.
    Yes, you can use Ducati binary from Blaze board it is PPA for Linux  - OMAP additional packages.
    The packets which you need are:
    • OpenGLES 1.x & 2.x Graphics Driver Binaries
    • Binary files for OMAP4 that enable you to playback upto 1080p MPEG4/H263 or H.264 videos (pls. play the videos with full resolution)

    Best regards,

    Yanko

    Hello,

    I have found that the additional drivers made attention.

    The PowerVR SGX Prorietary graphiics driver for OMAP4.

    then I click on activate afterwards I got a error message: "sorry, installation of this driver failed"

    Hello Kmrish,

    Please reflash your panda board with Ubuntu image. Don't forget to plug LAN cable in Panda Board Ethernet connector.

    After that follow the steps described in in this link: http://omapedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_PPA

    You only must enable the support for MPEG4/H263 or H.264 videos.

    Best regards,

    Yanko

    Hello Kmrish,

    It appears that their broken packets in your Ubuntu release.

    Try to execute following steps:

    When the message that “your system is running in low-graphics mode” appears, press Ctrl+Alt+F1, then login with your credentials. And then, run the following commands:

    sudo apt-get install –reinstall ubuntu-desktop
    sudo reboot

    The greeter is invalid
    Run the following command in a terminal:

    sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

    and change the line

    greeter-session=unity-greeter

    SGX Binary releases - https://launchpad.net/~tiomap-dev/+archive/release

    After applying of the steps above try to use gdm - GNOME Display Manager

    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -d install --reinstall gdm
sudo apt-get remove --purge gdm
sudo apt-get install gdm
    sudo reboot

    More information about gdm at - http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man8/gdm.8.html

    Best regards,

    Hello Yanko and thank you very much for your support!

    once I wrote :sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop

    I got this answer:  anew Installation of ubuntu-desktop isn't possible

                                    It cann't be downloded

                                    0 updated, 0 new installl, 0 to remove und 35 not updated

    I attempted:

    1)sudo apt-get update

    2)sudo apt-get -f install

     came back as Answer:
    0 updated, 0 new install, 0 to remove and 35 not updated

    2)sudo apt-get autoremove

    The replay was the same : 0 updated, 0 new install, 0 to remove and 35 not updated

    3)sudo apt-get autoclean

    The answer was normal (Package-list, dependency and status information they were read)


    Afterthat I typed sudo apt-get upgrade, this command replies that some Package are reserved (like compiz                 compiz-core compiz-gnome compiz-plugins-default  unity unity-common unity service and some more)

    and the following Package will be updated (upgradet):

    compiz-plugins-main-default; flash-kernel; gstreamer0.10-gconf gstreamer0.10-pluins-good , u-boot-linaro-omap4-panda, totem-mozilla, xserver-common, xserver-xorg-core and some more)

    25 updated, 0 new installed, 0 to remove and 10 are not update

    Now it asked me whether I would to do its proposal.

    I answered the question with J

    The process of upgrading was well done.

    Then I made sudo apt-get update and finally reboot

    Now I have a desktop :)

    before loge-in I switch to ubuntu-2D 

    After a view minute It appeared a error-message, this message says that a problem with system application was noticed. And it asked me if I want to report this problem?

    My answer was: Problem report 

    after a view minute appears again the same message and freeze now my system. I can't now do anything; the mouse shows no reaction my keyboard doesn't response. the only thing that I can now do is that I pressure the button of restart on the Pandaboard.

    Please help me to find out what is the reason for this problem?!

    best regards

    Hello Kmrish

    Apply following commands:

    Open a terminal and remove all old crash-reports that might exist in the crash -report directory:
    sudo rm /var/crash/*

    After a reboot the popups are gone.

    If you don't want to reboot, you can close all open popups with:

    killall system-crash-notification

    Best regards,

    Yanko

    Hello Yanko

    I have removed the crash-report directory.

    I'm sorry to tell you that the removing of crash-report directory hasn't solve the problem completely.

    The system will still ok also I mean will not crash as long as I don't open the Firefox.

    After opening the Firefox, exactly after ca. one minute, the system hangs completely even CTRL+ALT+F1.


    I can't do anything more.

    I suspect that the problem resides in firefox browser!

    I open the directory /var/log and something strikes me that in this directory there are many files which are similar like:

    Xorg.0.log

    Xorg.0.log.old

    Xorg.100.log

    Xorg.100.log.old

    Xorg.101.log

    Xorg.101.log.old

         .

          .

           .

           .

    Xorg.109.log

    Xorg.109.log.old

    Xorg.10.log

    Xorg.10.log.old

    Xorg.110.log

    Xorg.110.log.old

    Xorg.111.log

    Xorg.111.log.old

              .

              .

              .

    Xorg.119.log

    Xorg.119.log.old

    Xorg.11.log

    Xorg.11.log.old

    Xorg.120log

    Xorg.120.log.old

    Xorg.121.log

    Xorg.121.log.old

             .

              .

              .

    Xorg.250.log

    Xorg.250.log.old

    That is surely not normal.

    cat it be the reason?

    should I remove all of them until Xorg.0.log?

    My originally Problem that I couldn't play any video trailer of you tube or of iTunes. and Now I can't open the Firefox.

    I done something wrong, but what is exactly?

    best regards.

    Kmrish,

    #Q: My originally Problem that I couldn't play any video trailer of you tube or of iTunes. and Now I can't open the Firefox.

    I done something wrong, but what is exactly?

    I don't know what causes your problem with Firefox. Try to instal a new version of Firefox.

    Then apply the new procedure for OMAP4 video support.

    New installation procedure:

      1- Add TI OMAP release PPA:
        $ sudo su -
        # export http_proxy=<your proxy if any>
        # export https_proxy=<your proxy if any>
        # add-apt-repository ppa:tiomap-dev/release
      2- Perform the upgrade:
        $ sudo apt-get update
        $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
        $ sudo apt-get install ubuntu-omap4-extras
      3- You can re-run a dist-upgrade for safety at the end, then reboot
    Post Installation Important Information:
    * It is advised to use Ubuntu 2D instead of Ubuntu (3D) default UI.
    * You need to configure gstreamer settings in a way to be able to use totem, proceed as follow:
        - open a terminal and start "gstreamer-properties"
        - open tab "Video"
        - In section "Default Output", set "Plugin" as "Custom" and set "Pipeline" to "dri2videosink".
        - Test shall be working at this stage
      In a future update it will be done automatically
    * New pvr dkms package requires new Headers in linux-headers packages that are available in TI kernel. As a consequence, dkms compilation will fail on the default Ubuntu kernel. apport will then complain on first re-boot, please ignore, no need to send a report.
    Best regards,
    Yanko

    hello Yanko

    can you please tell me what means the  following lines:

    [451.374298] omap_abb_post_scale: mpu: no RBB! (SR not converged yet)

    [451.430755] do_calibrate: mpu: Calibration complete: voltage Nominal=1317000Calib=1090000 margin=0

    [451.449157] abb_check: mpu: late enable of RBB ok!

    I think my problems reside in this lines.

    Kmrish,
    Your problem is not in SmartReflex configuration.

    Your problems are caused by unsupported features in your Linux release. Try to run on your Panda Board an older version of Ubuntu release or try to apply the steps described at link - http://pharos.ece.utexas.edu/wiki/index.php/How_to_Install_Ubuntu_on_the_Panda_Board

    To understand what RBB/ABB/SmartReflex mean,  please see sections OMAP4460 TRM:

    3.1.1.3.2 Voltage Domain Management
    3.1.2.5 Adaptive Body Bias
    3.8.4 Internal LDOs Control
