also curious if theres a wider riscv64 matrix room There is also #riscv-main:matrix.org | 09:09:45 |

 colemickens | Any idea if uboot riscv cross-compiles? I'm close to something neat, if so. | 23:57:20 |
| colemickens | I'll play with the nixpkgs branch after a bit, gotta do a call | 23:57:29 |

Any idea if uboot riscv cross-compiles? I'm close to something neat, if so. Yes it does | 00:04:50 |
| colemickens | hm, I'm trying to boot qemu with an opensbi build with the kernel as a FW_PAYLOAD and then directly loading kernel but it's not going super well so far -_- | 01:45:00 |
| Zhaofeng Li | What's your command line? Which OpenSBI build are you using? | 01:45:45 |
| colemickens | Zhaofeng Li: https://github.com/colemickens/nixcfg/blob/main/modules/other-arch-vm.nix#L13-L15 | 01:46:55 |
| colemickens | I'm using your riscv-cached brach, override-ing opensbi to set a payload, and then the bottom has the qemu invocation, but it looks like this | 01:47:26 |
| colemickens | qemu-system-riscv64 \

| colemickens | going off of : https://github.com/riscv-software-src/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/qemu_virt.md | 01:48:40 |
| colemickens | oh, maybe I'm doing it wrong | 01:49:15 |
| colemickens | the example there doesn't have a kernel line... so it is embedding it into the opensbi, which I guess is what I was originally looking for | 01:49:38 |
| Zhaofeng Li | Usually you can just skip the -bios flag and use qemu's built-in opensbi | 01:52:43 |
| Zhaofeng Li | If you don't care which version is being used | 01:52:55 |
| colemickens | which I guess implies the fw_jump.elf, which I think should be pretty close to what I have here... :/ hm | 01:54:16 |
| colemickens | (since I see now that it seems that I could either fw_jump+kernel or embed into opensbi and use fw_payload (though not sure why, that seems like extra steps and builds) | 01:55:01 |
| colemickens | Oh, s/fw_jump.elf/fw_jump.bin/g and removing a arm kernel conf tweak and let's see how it goes | 02:01:10 |
| colemickens | there we go, a kernel panic at least | 02:01:52 |
| colemickens | ah maybe initrd doesn't work this way though: Initramfs unpacking failed: write error | 02:02:29 |
| colemickens | and sure enough the default bios gets me to the same place, thanks for saying ;) | 02:04:11 |
| colemickens | there we go, some more memory and it seems to be going | 02:08:10 |
| colemickens | alright, looks like I'm bumping into some stuff since riscv-cached is "old", I might try to rebase it | 03:10:26 |
| colemickens | wow this is basically all upstream in nixos-unstable already, fantastic Zhaofeng Li. it's so cool to get this board and have so much ready to go | 03:43:21 |

| colemickens | I don't have it all polished up yet, I'm going to make it more efficient and use virtiofsd, but I have a nixos module that will build a cross-compiled qemu with an ssh port forwarded for use as a native builder. | 01:39:37 |

Have you seen thefloweringash's module for more or less that? | 13:24:56 |
