vup: anuejn: latest PR https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/naps/pull/28
01:42
tpw_rules
i discovered two things: the packet usually gets read from main RAM by dd at 4-6MB/s, but sometimes for no reason it's 70. can it be 70 all the time? is there something in the bus logic?
01:43
tpw_rules
the other: PR #24 made the stream writer pass timing yes, but it also broke it and parts of the stream get dropped. if i revert the changes then it does not pass timing but works properly. can you investigate and fix?
01:43
tpw_rules
also the third: did we come up with a good way to expose the HDMI output?

morning folks!

tpw_rules: nice

varying ram speed seems really wired
11:25
anuejn
do you know if it has something to do with the ram reads / writes from the fpga side?
11:25
anuejn
ouch #24 breaking it seems bad
11:26
anuejn
re HDMI I think there is no good way for me to expose it but Bertl said that he will have a working camera soon
11:26
anuejn
and his remote setup supports hdmi

vup
tpw_rules: the read speed is probably due to the sdcard?
12:19
vup
4-6MB/s seems like a reasonable speed for a normal sdcard
12:19
vup
and the 70MB/s might be, when the kernel caches it for a bit before syncing

vup: you were right, receiving to /dev/null is >300MB/s. i thought i tested that, but i guess i made a mistake
20:29
tpw_rules
i fixed the DRAM writer by adding a StreamBuffer on the data stream. not entirely sure why that is necessary. and unfortunately that stops it from passing timing again...
20:38
tpw_rules
it seems all the timing issues are input_dram_packet_ringbuffer_stream_writer/writer/burster/address_burster/last_address[N]
