StarFive VisionFive 2 - Fedora 37 external GPU ATI Radeon 5450 running Quake2

I wanted to compile and test a few programs on a RISC-V. I only ran into the problem of minimal support of the onboard GPU and custom build Debian from the StarFive Team.

So below you can see my “solution”. (Part I)

Hardware

StarFive VisionFive 2
BEYIMEI PCIE Riser-Ver010X GPU Riser, 1X tot 16X (4PIN/6PIN/MOLEX) PCIE-verlengkabel, M.2 naar PCI-E Riser Card Bitcoin Litecoin Ethereum. This is about 11 EURO on amazon, so no big deal… amazon-link
ATI Radeon 5450, Bought on a Dutch second-hand website, for 10 EURO.
An ATX power supply (was still lying around in the house)
For debugging a USB to TTL (was still lying around in the house), is about 5 EURO.

My first setup was with a too light power supply for the video card, you can still see it in the background (no longer connected). I always used this to connect a hard disk externally. If this also happens to you, you will see that the video card is recognized by the kernel, but that you see a lot of errors. [ 817.910347] pcie_plda 2c000000.pcie: AXI fetch error

Debugging

The longest I spent trying to get a working kernel that had the ATI video card and audio over HDMI working.

I have spent a lot of hours to get Kernel driver in use: radeon and Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel in my screen :)

The longest it take to findout I had to add firmwares to the kernel. I got the error’s with:

$ journalctl -b | grep radeon
$ journalctl -b | grep amdgpu
$ journalctl -b | grep firmware

After this it was only getting the Fedora root partition on my SD-card. The “Frankenstein” Debian-build-69 is fun if you want to see the board working with the onboard GPU, but those drivers are really unfinished and X11 was as fast as I could see completely custom build for this GPU. (No OpenGL, OpenGL ES 3 only).

DIY Step by step

Create SD-card

My machine has a SD-card reader on /dev/mmcblk0 this can of course be difference on your machine.

Download the Debian-Image-69 from StarFive VisionFive 2 Support page (I used the torrent in the google drive). Download the Fedora RISC-V image Fedora-Developer-37-20221130.n.0-nvme.raw.img.xz link and extract it to Fedora-Developer-37-20221130.n.0-nvme.raw.img

# create a loop device of image
$ sudo losetup -f -P ~/Downloads/Image-69/starfive-jh7110-VF2_515_v2.5.0-69.img
$ sudo losetup -f -P ~/Downloads/Fedora-Developer-37-20221130.n.0-nvme.raw.img
# find your loop device

Remove the SD-card and put it back in again.

Building the Linux Kernel

I build this on my own machine, otherwise it will take a very long time. so cross compile! Everything is neatly explained if you click through to the “linux” repo of all (yet) custom code for the SBC. link

$ mkdir ~/visionfive2
$ cd visionfive2
$ git clone https://github.com/starfive-tech/linux.git

Your branch is up to date with 'origin/JH7110_VisionFive2_devel'.

Now we have the modified kernel 5.15 that workes with VisionFive 2. We can use the instructions of the other branch link. Here and there I deviated a little from it

I am running Manjaro on got an error. I fixxed it in arch/riscv/Makefile on line +/- 56 (find this online).

The kernel is Done! Now copy it to the boot partition!

BOOT/ROOT Copy kernel

We have the SD-card inserted (again).

$ mkdir -p ~/visionfive2/boot
$ mkdir -p ~/visionfive2/root
# mount boot and root partition
$ sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 ~/visionfive2/boot
$ sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p3 ~/visionfive2/root
# copy the kernel
$ sudo cp ~/visionfive2/kernel/*dirty ~/visionfive2/boot/boot

BOOT/ROOT Add the boot option

$ sudo nano ~/visionfive2/boot/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

We have to change the kernel from /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-starfive to /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.0-dirty

BOOT/ROOT Fix the fstab of the root partition

We have to change the /boot mount point. The UUID and type are different. We have to findout the new UUID and change the type from ext4 to vfat. (Debian image works with vfat!)

$ blkid /dev/mmcblk0p2
/dev/mmcblk0p2: SEC_TYPE="msdos" UUID="9936-8B5F" BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="vfat" PARTUUID="9ba5bebd-7dd9-4a43-b352-3b197302ead9"

$ sudo nano ~/visionfive2/root/etc/fstab

change

BOOT/ROOT Yum repo’s

There is no real release yet of RISC-V of Fedora (mainline). So we need to disable alot of repo’s
