Qt5 AM3359 + SGX + eglfs problem

I am aware of this, please use -platform minimalegl till this is analysed more. I have patchset for input support on minimalegl if needed for you.

Hi Prabindh

Thanks for your response. I'm glad to hear from you.

I tested the analogclock example using the minimalegl plugin and it worked fine. Next, with this working plugin I continued my testing on an own Qt5 application, more complex than analogclock and using Qt3D but the performance was very poor. Only I could reach 2fps when before I reached 30fps and 40fps using Qt4.8.4. I hope this can help you.

Could you give me some patch to improve the minimalegl plugin?

And, of course you feel free to ask me for any other test.

Thank you!

- Can you possibly share code that you are running to check performance - on both Qt 4.8 and Qt 5 ?

- In Qt5 Alpha (from http://releases.qt-project.org/qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.tar.gz),  can you please check the performance with eglfs (I did confirm eglfs works in that version) ?

Yes, I will prepare a test application I have in QT5 and other for Qt4 coming soon.

Meanwhile, I am preparing to test the application on QT5 Alpha.

Thanks again!

Maxi

Hi Prabindh

I'm back, I can confirm that Qt5 Alpha has the eglfs plugin working. I tested that feature on the analogclock example. But the Qt3D module is a little different and it is missing some features I need for my custom application.

So now I'm trying to modify the Qt3D module that is included with QT5 alpha in order to test my custom application.

Thanks!

Maxi

That is great. Please confirm the performance with eglfs compared to minimal ?

Hi Prabindh

Good news, I can also confirm that eglfs plugin is working and running on 20fps in Qt5 Alpha + Qt3D (qt5alpha). The performance is very good because I have a lot of code running and several threads too. Now, I'am going to clean and debug my custom application because I lose the OpenGL context many times due to many overpainting using Qt4 code styles. Next I'm going to try to figure out what is the problem on eglfs plugin in the Qt5 release version.

If you have any idea about this issue, please let me know.

Thanks!

Maxi

Hi Prabindh,

Can you please share your QT5 patch set for input support on minimalegl?

Thanks!

Martin

Hi Prabindh,

I'm running into the same issue as originally posted by Maximiliano - I'm unable to use "-platform eglfs" for any qt5 example application. Example: 

./analogclock -platform eglfs -plugin tslib
evdevtouch: Using device /dev/input/event1
min X: 0 max X: 0
min Y: 0 max Y: 0
min pressure: 0 max pressure: 4095
device name: ti-tsc
Protocol type A 
EGL Error : Could not create the egl surface: error = 0x3003

Aborted (core dumped)

Using "-platform minimalegl" works but then touch input does not. I'm running the offical QT 5.0.0 release with latest TI Graphics SDK on the TMDSSK3358 board.

From this forum thread it seems you guys went from using minimalegl to using eglfs but it is not clear how you did so - I assume some sort of fix was involved?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Br, Martin

Anyone know what the fix was for this issue?  I'm encountering the same problem.

This is fixed, atleast temporarily.  Check below link,

https://github.com/prabindh/qt-configs/tree/master/qt5_1.0_Feb13

Martin - sorry for the delay. Please check the below link for the fix for the eglfs, that includes input support and cursor. I am working with Qt5 team to get mainline,

https://github.com/prabindh/qt-configs/tree/master/qt5_1.0_Feb13

Hi Prabindh

I'm glad to hear from you again.

I will check the patch in coming days.

Thanks!

Best regards,

Maxi

Hi Prabindh,

Thank you very much for the patch - I can confirm that it works with QT 5.0.1.

Running QT5's examples/opengl/hellogl_es2 I'm getting about 100 fps on the TMDSSK3358 at 480x272. I'm running a fully optimized GNU/Linux stack using hardfloat / neon enabled gcc 4.7.2 and glibc 2.17.

Also, as expected, all the input plugins work in combination with "-platform eglfs".

Good stuff! :)

Br, Martin

Glad it worked Martin. Please continue testing and get back if there are issues,

regards

Prabindh

Hi Prabindh,

when I run the hellogl_es2 example apps i only get 58 fps and has the error below, can you point me to where to debug this?  I am using eglfs as the default qpa.

Thanks,

Johny.

Animation is limited by LCD refresh rate ~ 60 fps. Do you see rotating logo on the screen ?

Hi Prabindh,

thanks for your reply.  The logo is rotating and I was able to run other app as well.. Like calculator .  I was just curious on the frame rate because on the same system the hellogl_es2 run at 100 fps with qt 4.7 and powervr driver.  Just want to make sure that I am not missing anything because of the eglError it throw.

another question, when using qmlscene it segfault in the QMLEngine intialization.  How do I go about debugging this problem?

Thanks again,

Johny.

QMLScene works fine for me. What platform (eglfs?) are you using ?  A backtrace would show where it crashes.

>> using qmlscene it segfault in the QMLEngine intialization

Hi Prabindh,

It segfault during this call: QQmlEngine engine;

I don't really know what to look for, I am running eglfs on dm814x board with Graphic SDK 4.06.

Thanks a lot for you help.

Johny.

I meant a gdb backtrace.  Also, what toolchain is being used, and what root filesystem ?

Hi Prabindh,

Cannot get a back trace with gdb.  When it get the segfault, gdb program just exit.  I produce a core dump but cannot get anything out of it either.

I am using the  arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi.bin toolchain, this is code sourcery with gcc 4.3.  It running on our own rootfs with kernel 2.67 build with OE.

What can I do?

Johny.

Your kernel, and toolchain are really outdated. Can you possibly try with gcc4.6, and with a later kernel ?

Hi Prabindh,

Some of the component in OE won't build with the linaro toolchain (arm-linux-gnueabi) the one you are using to compile qt5 on your blog.

I tried to use ti-sdk-am335x-evm which use gcc 4.5.3 but it still segfault.  

I am going to try to compile pyqt against qt5 to see if our apps will run or not since we use pyqt.  Have you tried compile pyqt 4.10 with qt5?

Thanks,

Johny.

Hi Prabindh,

I hope you can help me narrow the problem with this new information.

qmlscene segfault in this file: src//qml/qml/v8/qv8engine.cpp

 m_context = (ownership == CreateNewContext) ? v8::Context::New() : v8::Persistent<v8::Context>::New(v8::Context::GetCurrent());

specifically in the v8::Context::New()

Can you help?

Thanks,

Johny.

Hi Prabindh,

I finally got gdb working and has a back trace, wonder if you could explain what is happening.  I am no familiar with the code so any help would be great.

thanks, Johny.
