Hi Kevin,

      I want to have a test with my board, I can get the Image and dtb
from the link for the job,

but how can I get the randisk which is named initrd-SDbyy2.cpio.gz?
The ramdisk images are here:

   https://storage.kernelci.org/images/rootfs/buildroot/kci-2019.02/arm64/base/

in the kernelCI logs the ramdisk is slightly modified because the kernel
modules have been inserted into the cpio archive.

However, for the purposes of this test, you can just test with the
unmodified rootfs.cpio.gz above.


I try with this ramdisk, and it hangs at fan53555 init, but not get into cpufreq.

Any suggestion?

I'm struggling to see anything relevant in the diff from yesterday, the
unlisted frequency warnings were there in the logs yesterday but no oops
and I'm not seeing any changes in cpufreq, clk or anything relevant
looking.

Full bootlog and other info can be found here:

I confirm that disabling CPUfreq in the defconfig (CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n)
makes the firefly board start working again.

Note that the default defconfig enables the "performance" CPUfreq
governor as the default governor, so during kernel boot, it will always
switch to the max frequency.

For fun, I set the default governor to "userspace" so the kernel
wouldn't make any OPP changes, and that leads to a slightly more
informative splat[1]

There is still an OPP change happening because the detected OPP is not
one that's listed in the table, so it tries to change to a listed OPP
and fails in the bowels of clk_set_rate()
Though I think that might only be a symptom as well.
Both the PLL setting code as well as the actual cpu-clock implementation
is unchanged since 2017 (and runs just fine on all boards in my farm).

One source for these issues is often the regulator supplying the cpu
going haywire - aka the voltage not matching the opp.

As in this error-case it's CPU4 being set, this would mean it might
be the big cluster supplied by the external syr825 (fan5355 clone)
that might act up. In the Firefly-rk3399 case this is even stranger.

There is a discrepancy between the "fcs,suspend-voltage-selector"
between different bootloader versions (how the selection-pin is set up),
so the kernel might actually write his requested voltage to the wrong
register (not the one for actual voltage, but the second set used for
the suspend voltage).

Did you by chance swap bootloaders at some point in recent past?
No, haven't touched bootloader since I initially setup the board.
The CPU voltage does not affect by bootloader for kernel should have its
own opp-table,

the bootloader may only affect the center/logic power supply.

I'd assume [2] might actually be the same issue last year, though
the CI-logs are not available anymore it seems.

Could you try to set the vdd_cpu_b regulator to disabled, so that
cpufreq for this cluster defers and see what happens?
Yes, this change[1] definitely makes things boot reliably again, so
there's defintiely something a bit unstable with this regulator, at
least on this firefly.
Is it possible to target which patch introduce this bug? This board
should have work correctly for a long time with upstream source code.
Unfortunately, it seems to be a regular, but intermittent failure, so
bisection is not producing anything reliable.

You can see that both in mainline[1] and in linux-next[2] there are
periodic failures, but it's hard to see any patterns.
Even worse, I (re)tested mainline for versions that were previously
passing (v5.2, v5.3-rc5) and they are also failing now.

They work again if I disable that regulator as suggested by Heiko.

So this is increasingly pointing to failing hardware.
