 Tristan Ross | I was thinking about asking some people at Ampere since I do have an Ampere CPU and the performance team has done a lot of testing as I've heard. | 22:46:13 |
 dramforever | lld should be faster than ld.bfd at processing linker relaxations... maybe | 22:48:05 |
| dramforever | i'm not sure how you would go about profiling this though | 22:48:21 |
| dramforever | oh nevermind it's not really building a riscv kernel | 22:48:42 |

i'm not sure how you would go about profiling this though IIRC there is a function for "just change the linker" for use with replaceStdenv, so the two can be compared in isolation. | 22:49:19 |

 Alyssa Ross | Has anyone looked into why nodejs tests fail, or why git tests hang? | 15:40:27 |

I guess I can just pull the older nixos-hardware before this was added part of a module | 17:51:50 |
| dramforever | do you have a config | 17:52:50 |
| dramforever | like, already built image or something | 17:53:00 |
| rosssmyth | Yeah I built the image and used dd to put it on my sd card, but it's not booting so I assume I need to update the fimware over spi or something | 17:53:45 |
| rosssmyth | At least that is what the readme and wiki seem to imply | 17:53:58 |
| dramforever | what does the serial port say when it's "not booting" | 17:54:35 |
