07:17:25 is there anyone run illumos on ARMv8/Aarch64 ? 08:40:51 tozhu - yes, there is an experimental aarch64 OmniOS distribution, and a few people are running that on Raspberry Pi 4s, and under qemu 08:42:07 andyf: Thanks for the information, is there installation os available? or had the source ? 08:42:11 Boot log: https://gist.github.com/citrus-it/4c672cee14dfdf91a76100fa36f4ba84 08:42:37 Images can be downloaded from https://downloads.omnios.org/media/braich/ 08:43:25 This is based on three repos: https://github.com/richlowe/illumos-gate; https://github.com/omniosorg/omnios-build/; https://github.com/omniosorg/omnios-extra/ 08:44:21 so, is the zfs available right now 08:44:44 there any docs guide it from source ? 08:45:24 andyf, Thank you very much 08:45:26 ZFS is working, yes, but this is still all a work in progress with lots to do. 08:45:34 If you want to build it from source, you should look at https://github.com/richlowe/arm64-gate/ 08:46:38 There is also a really easy way to get an image running under qemu on OmniOS bloody, using `zadm` - I hope to write some kind of blog post on that next week. 08:49:57 cool, I’m waiting for you blog post, Thank you Andyf 09:57:51 andyf: only rpi4 atm? i got a spare rpi3 laying around but no 4s 10:08:54 There is only a platform-specific module for rpi4 at present - https://github.com/richlowe/illumos-gate/tree/arm64-gate/usr/src/psm/stand/boot/aarch64/rpi4/ 10:23:07 I don't know off the top of my head how hard it would be to make an rpi3 one of those 10:47:09 not even sure how different trhy are aside from the cpu cores 10:49:42 ok A72 vs A52 Cortex core, DDR4 vs DDR 2 memory, ... lots of changes 10:50:17 i though it was way less difference 10:50:55 When others wake up they might have a better idea of how much work it would be, and if there's anything that makes it impractical. 10:51:09 there's not a vast amount of code in that directory 14:55:16 Hello, Is there a way to check/enable disk write cache in onpenindiana ?  I have a 4TB disk that speeds at 155MB/s on reads and crowls below 8MB/s on write. 15:47:05 i think running 'format -e' (ignore the omnious sounding name of the utility) 15:47:26 somewhere in there after you select the disk i believe is an option to show or set the write cache 15:47:46 normally though zfs will do that as long as it thinks it is using the entire disk 15:48:02 what type of disk is it? 15:48:37 like I think some of the WD SMR disks that try to pretend they're not SMR can have pretty bad write performance 18:52:49 rpi3 is probably a new mmc etc. 18:52:53 but I never looked 19:07:10 is it using the sdcard driver? 19:48:58 * tomww mentions that there is still the idea to record an episode of "friends of illumos" with stories about raspi-illumos 20:02:08 well, I'm not going to nominate anyone 'cos that'd be rude. 20:06:36 has anyone tried to run the arm stuff under ESX (apparently there's an ARM version)? 20:11:29 andyf: does the nic work on the rpi4 yet? 20:12:26 Yes 20:13:53 It's pretty nice, even though we're running DEBUG bits (although not all kmem flags are set, although they probably could be on the pi) 20:14:18 [illumos-gate] 15771 loader: remove traces of firewire -- Toomas Soome 20:16:42 andyf: yeah, probably should let them default in general now it's actually useful 20:18:13 I got a heap corruption panic just a few minutes ago, so they're doing their job. 20:18:52 Yes, it's defaulting to 0x6 which is everything useful at runtime, but no logging etc. 20:19:02 but now we have an mdb that logging is invaluable, rather than useless. 20:19:31 I guess I know what I am doing this weekend with my rpi4 20:20:50 andyf: and if you want to file github issues for panics and stuff, that's fine 20:21:03 if other people start doing stuff I'm going to have to finally get stuff moved into proper homes though. 20:24:44 papertigers - for quick start there are omnios images you can just dd onto a card. To boot the GPT partitioned one you need to have up-to-date firmware on there (on the pi 4 that's in SPI flash rather than read from the FAT partition on the card) 20:25:05 It's serial console only though, so you need some kind of uart 20:28:14 [illumos-gate] 15775 ps: 'lwpsinfo' may be used uninitialized -- Toomas Soome 20:33:14 [illumos-gate] 15738 SMB Sharing Violation with zombie open -- Gordon Ross 20:39:03 andyf: I grabbed the omnios zst image for the rpi4. 20:39:10 I will have to look up the other bits about booting 20:39:38 and I think I have a uart serial thing I can connect to the gpio headers 20:40:11 andyf: I also think I have instructions for using the emu brand from you saved. May try that first 20:55:38 [illumos-gate] 15783 loader: add stdint.h -- Toomas Soome 21:27:08 papertigers - if you have omnios bloody, it's really easy to boot an image under the emu brand - https://asciinema.org/a/595580 21:28:55 I suspect the "emu" brand will get backported to r46 at some point too. 21:42:16 when you find a million things wrong, a good thing to do is to tell me about it, or file bugs. 21:42:26 but file bugs in the arm64 illumos gate, not redmine (yet) 23:38:56 [illumos-gate] 15779 libuuid can produce invalid V4 UUIDs -- Robert Mustacchi
