Describe the bug | 问题描述

Hi all, I have a FunTV box which seems to be a X96W S905W variant. https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=886489

Mine has AP6255 wifi + H1621SR ethernet NIC

The Wi-Fi doesn't seem to be detected. I think I need a dtb suitable for my device. Any help is appreciated!

Thank you!

WiFi & BT combo module AMPAK AP6255: try bcm4329-fmac

Which dtb are you using now, can it start normally, is the wired network normal?

daniyo27 · 2023-02-10T09:07:08Z

I am using meson-gxl-s905w-x96-mini.dtb

wired network is normal (10/100mbps) and the box does start normally.

I don't know how to add bcm4329-fmac to a dtb. Can you please help?

Thanks!

Test whether this u-boot can be used.

I am stuck here now after running this ^^

ophub · 2023-02-10T09:52:11Z

Insert the U disk into the computer, you can open the /boot partition, and delete the two files added by copying.

u-boot does not support, you can only use the 5.15/5.4 kernel in the future, do not update 6.1

daniyo27 · 2023-02-10T18:37:05Z

@ophub I decompiled X96-Mini.dtb and added

wifi@1 { reg = <0x01>; compatible = "brcm,bcm4329-fmac"; };

at the end of mmc@70000 and was able to get Wi-Fi working. Can this be added as a dtb file to be built for future images? The box should be called FunTV3 or X96W

Additionally, I was able to run armbian-install and can boot from eMMC.

ophub · 2023-02-11T01:08:11Z

meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb.zip

Download, decompress into a dtb file, upload it to the /boot/dtb/amlogic directory, and modify the name of dtb in /boot/uEnv.txt to: meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb

Save, restart, and test whether the wired, wireless, and Bluetooth are working properly. Bluetooth Go to armbian-config and add the Bluetooth support module.

daniyo27 · 2023-02-11T06:28:42Z

Thank you! I tested wired and wireless and both are working.

Bluetooth is NOT working. I ran bluetoothctl with list command and it is not showing any available controllers. I did add the Bluetooth support module.

Almost there for getting everything working!

This is the current test dts, you can continue to try

bluetooth: 
compatible = "brcm,bcm4345c5";
compatible = "bcm4329-fmac";

These two Bluetooth codes have cases in the current dts, but you can't use them for testing. Perhaps the bluetooth firmware is not working for you?

daniyo27 · 2023-02-12T00:13:45Z

I don't think we are doing this correctly. AP6255 should be using brcm,bcm4345c5 as bt binding.

I cannot compile dtb from source and so I cannot compile stuff with &gpio

I believe I am missing the interrupt pins and using the right variables such as shutdown-gpios instead of enable-gpios.

Also, host-wakeup-gpios is deprecated and the message inside says This is deprecated and replaced by interrupts and "host-wakeup" interrupt-names

Can you try and help me compile this with the gpio/interrupt settings?

broadcom-bluetooth.yaml

daniyo27 · 2023-02-12T00:17:58Z

Attached is current dmesg of brcm with

bluetooth {
	compatible = "brcm,bcm4345c5";
	brcm,bt-pcm-int-params = [01 02 00 01 01];

The s905w series of TV Boxes only support the use of the 5.4.y/5.15.y kernel.

I submit to the kernel source repository of unifreq.

Thank you for your time and persistence to get this device to work! Hopefully this is of use to other X96W / FunTV owners!

At present, several other devices of s905w, such as X96-Mini, TX3-Mini and W95, can use u-boot-s905x-s912.bin to start the 6.1.y kernel.

You test again, use USB to start the firmware of 5.15.y of s905w, and modify the dtb in /boot/uEnv.txt to: meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb

Copy u-boot-s905x-s912.bin to u-boot.ext

Then start USB to see if it can start to the welcome interface normally.

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T07:39:45Z

I am trying to boot from USB but it seems to keep booting off of eMMC. I have a reset button on the back, but it is not doing anything. Any ideas?

ophub · 2023-02-15T08:11:26Z

cd /boot
mv boot.cmd boot.cmd.bak
mv boot.src boot.src.bak

After you start from USB, you can mount emmc into USB, modify it back, and then you can restart from EMMC after unplugging USB.

cd /mnt
mkdir emmc_boot
mount /dev/mmcblk2p1 emmc_boot
cd emmc_boot
mv boot.cmd.bak boot.cmd
mv boot.src.bak boot.src

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T08:17:41Z

Very interesting... it is booting indeed with the uboot!

cd /boot
cp u-boot-s905x-s912.bin u-boot.ext
cp u-boot-s905x-s912.bin u-boot.emmc
chmod +x u-boot.emmc u-boot.ext
sync && reboot

Test whether this u-boot can be used.

I believe this earlier test did not work because I was booting off a SD card.

On another note, is there any reason why the kernel config build has CONFIG_WIREGUARD=m? Can we have this enabled by default so users can use Wireguard properly?

I am happy to test a 6.1 kernel release if you want with the wireguard and the uboot if it can be compiled!

ophub · 2023-02-15T08:38:33Z

Just operate in USB

vi /etc/ophub-releases

Modify the following 3 content

FDTFILE='meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb'
UBOOT_OVERLOAD='u-boot-s905x-s912.bin'
KERNEL_VERSION='stable'

Update the script first, then update the kernel

armbian-sync
armbian-update -k 6.1.12

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T09:11:28Z

I did the update but after rebooting and running uname -r it is still 5.15.91
I also had to change KERNEL_BRANCH to stable for it to do install

I will retry install again!

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T09:15:45Z

I tried again, this is the result now.

ophub · 2023-02-15T09:31:37Z

FDTFILE error

You don't have the update script and the 6.1.12 kernel

Are you on a USB? What did you do after you added U-BOOT to boot successfully? The command to execute?

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T09:36:44Z

Yes I am on USB. I did the modification on ophub-release and also changed current branch to stable.

then I ran
‘armbian-sync’
‘armbian-update -k 6.1.12’

And it auto rebooted to what you see above

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T09:37:14Z

Maybe it’s best to have a compiled img of kernel 6.1 for our board for me to test?

ophub · 2023-02-15T09:43:27Z

https://github.com/ophub/amlogic-s9xxx-armbian/actions

It is being repackaged and should be completed within half an hour. You can download the firmware in 6.1.12 of s905w from Releases.

Modify the dtb of /boot/uEnv.txt to meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb

u-boot has been added by default.

After you write the firmware in 6.1.12 to usb, in addition to modifying the uEnv.txt file, put the meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb in 5.15 into the same directory in 6.1.12: /boot/dtb/amlogic

Then start from USB to test whether it can start to the welcome interface normally.

ophub · 2023-02-15T10:17:47Z

Your meson-gxl-s905w-x96w.dtb is not added to the 6.1.y source code. I only add your dtb to the upstream 5.4 and 5.15 kernel source code repository, because you have previously reported that u-boot cannot be used.

daniyo27 · 2023-02-15T18:30:49Z

I managed to boot kernel 6.1.12 with the new images.
I had to rename the FDTFILE to my dtb and all is good except that the SSH server is failing?

I never had any SSH issues until trying the 6.1.12 kernel!

ophub · 2023-02-15T23:23:38Z

Thank you for your feedback. It seems that the s905w can also use the 6.x.y series kernel. I will cancel the restrictions on it.
