Logged on 2018-05-15 19:51 diana_coman: ave1, if I want to test your gnat-building script what steps should I follow so that I have at the end of it maximum info re what works/doesn't and in what context exactly? |
| 00:18 |
ave1 |
note that the script creates cross-compilers first |
| 00:18 |
ave1 |
so, 'aarch64-musl-linux' is x86_64 exe and created aarch64 static bins |
| 00:18 |
ave1 |
the static binaries, being static, run on all linuxes be it glibc or musl |
| 00:18 |
ave1 |
the cross-compilers are then used to make 'native' compilers |
| 00:19 |
ave1 |
so the aarch64-...-native run on aarch64 and are static |
| 00:19 |
ave1 |
it does not matter if the linux is glibc or musl, I tested also on a clean ubuntu arm64 image |
| |
↖ |
| 00:20 |

But ofcourse only for the statically compiled binaries |

we'll have to fabricate more ; which is in the early stages. |

ben_vulpes |
right right well knowing that we booughtcha out i'm asking for a quote hoping (since confirmed) that a new run was in the works or to get one underway |
| 00:37 |
mircea_popescu |
mind also that 100 fgs are somewhat expensive ; and you're cash starved. neither for time nor for money do you want to marry the rockchip pile to fgs |
| 00:37 |
asciilifeform |
iirc dpb still has some in stock |
| 00:37 |
ben_vulpes |
scratch that; because we need fg i'm asking for 'em. |

asciilifeform: those were running at a what 4x markup or something stiff last i saw? |

basically the non-native was not arm; the native at least ran but then the script failed anyway |
| 04:20 |
diana_coman |
I did not investigate further but I can do that |

ave1 |
yes, the non-native is a cross compiler, so run on x86_64 and compile for aarch64 |

aaa, so it's x86_64_for_aarch64 |

got it |

ave1 |
yes, the original scripts only produced cross compilers, and the new ones now also create "real/native" compilers |
| 04:25 |
ave1 |
I will update the directory names as this is now confusing |
| 04:25 |

btw, I've not tried running the scripts with the generated native compilers, I always start with the binary from adacore |

as for the error, can you go to build/build-bootstrap/binutils-2.25.1/build1 and paste the config.log? |
| 04:54 |
ave1 |
this seems to be the very first "real" step, compile the binutils for your own system. it may be a CFLAGS problem |
| 04:56 |
ave1 |
oh wait, you are running the scripts on the rockchip? |
| 04:56 |
diana_coman |
ave1, yes, that was on the rockchip |
| 04:56 |
ave1 |
then the ada-build.sh needs adaptation |
| 04:56 |

so far I only ran these starting on x86_64 |
| 04:57 |
ave1 |
one sec |
| 04:58 |
diana_coman |
kk |
| 04:58 |
ave1 |
it's the 'build-ada.sh' script |
| 04:58 |
ave1 |
it's last line is now: ../extra/build-tarballs.sh $PREFIX musl ada x86_64 aarch64 |
| 04:58 |
ave1 |
for starting on aarch64 it should be |
| 04:58 |
ave1 |
../extra/build-tarballs.sh $PREFIX musl ada aarch64 x86_64 |
| 04:59 |
ave1 |
i.e. aarch64 first |
| 04:59 |
diana_coman |
ah, let me change that and try it again then |
| 04:59 |
ave1 |
also you can drop the x86_64, as you will probably not be cross compiling to x86_64 |
| 04:59 |
ave1 |
from aarch64 |
| 05:00 |
diana_coman |
well, I'd rather cross compile too if it works because then I can use the rockchip as launchpad for everything else, why not |
| |

| 05:00 |
diana_coman |
anyways, might as well try it now |
| 05:00 |
ave1 |
cool idea! |
| 05:02 |
ave1 |
btw the build process is not small, (nothing is cleaned during the run, to get partial build running) |

ave1 |
so 14G for build |
| 05:02 |
ave1 |
and 4.1G for install |

note also, that a lot of it is disk bound, the run takes longer with slow disks |

incidentally asciilifeform is still in active search for a suitable chassis : general-purpose atx units that i've found, are unsuitable, they lose ~40% of the internal space to nonremovable drive cages, which do NO good in rockchiptron . additionally, a good half of the chassis on the market, are ( for no reason known to me ) not full depth, these can be rejected right away |

to drive it into the dirt : a) suppose you want reliable addition, for which purpose you comission rockchip machines 1 through 6. b) you pass along the string "5+6". the answers come 11 11 11 65524 11 11. c) machine 3 notices it is the only one with that result via its distributed n-of-m magick module, and returns "op fail" instead. |

suppose instead c'. machine failed to so notice, returned 65524 : step d. the other machines return "reject 3." |

when you last flew over (on nsa dime) we sold them servers an' nobody died. |

no particular problem, aside from the stark contrast between the 100% repeatability and hygiene of , e.g., FG, and the possibly nsa-laden ( i don't design arm crystal, or the pcb, or the switches, etc ) server |
| 11:33 |
mircea_popescu |
okay, but the larger concern seems to be that you'd rather put all your fabrication under nsa than have to explain to shareholders why not and wherefore in the future. |
| 11:33 |
mircea_popescu |
there's not some rule that all nsa products must be available to the general public. |

it can do consultancy / custom jobs for isps/dcs, why the hell not. |
| 11:34 |

i will admit however that i dun particularly like the endgame i see in this, where let's say s.nsa sponsors, produces, and sells to pizarro the iron for shares, ends up owning ~100% of pizarro, and asciilifeform doesn't see a dime of profit until ( merely for starters ) he can even afford mpex acct ( which is a major if, rather than a when, it is quite possibly that neither i nor anyone else will ever actually earn 50 btc , and this |

it doesn't ~have to~ sell for shares. can sell for cash, why not ? |
| 11:35 |
mircea_popescu |
we were doing that as an easement, but it's evidently our option neh ? |

cuz it doesn't have much in the way of cash. |

if you do it as "myself" you get whatever chassis cost in btc in your pocket. if you do it as s.nsa you don't, is the logic ? |

except you do, iirc materials get paid anyway ? what am i missing here ? |
| 11:38 |

this isn't actually the problem, pizarro ( and other l1 folx ! thank you ! ) supplied asciilifeform in recent times with 100% of the btc-buying opportunities he can digest |
| 11:38 |
asciilifeform |
the 'i dun like the endgame' observation was specifically in re the scenario where s.nsa ends up swallowing pizarro. |

i don't think there's any intention of that. i certainly would vote against the measure. |
| 11:39 |

and one step down, nsa doesn't even have to permit equity buys, can insist on being paid cash. i was permitting it because i thought it's desirable, but if you don't like it evidently won't happen. |

( in case it isn't clear, asciilifeform views s.nsa as in effect a scientific collaboration / partizan front , with mircea_popescu , as asciilifeform does not expect to see any coin from it, i would like to be proven wrong about this, but i don't see selling >50 btc's profit worth of anything, esp not if the climb carries on ) |

mircea_popescu |
afaik nsa always was exactly what phf is quoted above as having understood it is : the umbrella org for your manufactory. |
| 11:42 |
mircea_popescu |
practically the situation here is this : we can either live in universe 1, whereby chassis for pizarro is produced by you for nsa, and sold by nsa to pizarro. in this world nsa stays what it always was, as above, and pizarro can (at practically your option, as i can go either way) pay with undiscounted bonds for cash-equivalent mateirals ; |
| 11:43 |
mircea_popescu |
or else universe 2, whereby chassis for pizarro is produced by you as free agent. in this world we have to now explain what nsa actually is, which becomes a rather difficult task, and pizarro will have to sell its bonds on market, to whatever discount. |
| 11:43 |

asciilifeform, anyway, an' ftr, if your concern is that you're underweight pizarro, you can just as well do a second round. see if mod6 wants to either a) give it more btc or else b) move into a minority position. pizarro would certainly benefit from a larger piggy giving it more solidity etc, so you can do another 10-20 round either by yourself if mod6 is agreeable or else match together or any which old way. this isn't an u |

asciilifeform |
mod6: was thinking 5 ( and that'll be most of asciilifeform's coin ... ) |

the fact that pizarro is actually well supported is the principal part, for its commercial credit. otherwise, it can't well spend even the 10 it has so far, 1.5 or so go to the rockchips, then it's all "get sales going". |

mod6 |
But, yeah, we're trying to figure out what makes sense here. |
| 12:35 |
mircea_popescu |
so agree that you'll each add another 5btc as circumstances merit ; then pizarro has all the backing it needs and a clear path to success. and if the circumstances "merit" in the sense that it needs rescuing rather than it's expanding, you can fire the management and get someone else or w/e. |

from wikipedoia: "TransferWise routes payments not by transferring the sender's money directly to the recipient, but by redirecting them to the recipient of an equivalent transfer going in the opposite direction. Likewise, the recipient of the transfer receives a payment not from the sender initiating the transfer, but from the sender of the equivalent transfer.

asciilifeform: Tracking information updated. Looks like a trip in la lata miserable will be avoided |
| 17:51 |
asciilifeform |
oh hey. |
| 18:00 |
asciilifeform |
in other noose, phuctor frontend updated; e.g. in http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/factors , formatting of individual factor pages , and a few other minor things |
| 18:03 |
asciilifeform |
( the other change, is not interesting to anyone but asciilifeform , but i will put it on the record : the thing has a 'json' api nao ) |
| 18:04 |
asciilifeform |
( ^ this permits decoupling of the front- and back- ends, theoretically 'anyone' can offer a valid factor for a particular modulus, and the db will Do The Right Thing . but currently only used in-house ) |
| 18:06 |
asciilifeform |
( in re 'minor changes' , nao we indicate if a mod is Fully Phuctored, e.g. http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/ABF23DE303BE1C82869D7925F0ACF7A8F54B420469D851530FC4121CBEC0B356 ) |
