ewenCarlFK[m]: mithro: FTR, "rm ./build/arty_net_or1k.linux/software/linux/.cache.mk" and then running scripts/build-linux.sh works properly.  I guess this is a side effect of starting with an older buildenv.00:18
ewenFTR, successfully built or1k linux and booted, via TFTP in QEMU (about to try on the Arty itself).00:22
ewenmithro: Success.  Can build/boot Linux on Arty as well.00:29

ewenWhile following https://github.com/timvideos/litex-buildenv/wiki/HowTo-FuPy-on-iCE40-Boards it appears that I've managed to (partially?) brick one of my TinyFPGA BX boards.  The "tinyprog --program-image" returned Failure (2-3 times), and after unplugging/plugging in BX board it's no longer finding the bootloader for programming :-(01:37

mithroewen: I think having the wrong version of tinyprog and overriding the warning might do that?01:38
ewenThere was no warning, AFAICT.01:39

mithroewen: Are you using a VM?01:39
ewenNo, native on Ubuntu 16.04 VM01:39

mithroewen: Hrm....01:41
ewenmithro: Not 100% bricked.  After leaving it plugged in for a while, *then* pressing reset, I did manage to re-upload the blink example.01:41
ewenI'll see if I can find another USB cable to try...01:41
ewenmithro: Looks like there's two things going on: 1. bootloader is only active for a wee while after reset, and 2. for some reason I'm having trouble programming BX from within litex-buildenv.01:44
ewen(Latter problem persists with a different USB cable.)01:44
mithroewen: If you are seeing (1) then it sounds like the bootloader is not detecting that your system has working USB01:45
mithrodo you have output in dmesg about xhci being all confused?01:45
ewenmithro: Not from xhci itself, now.  Seem to have usb-1.2 / cdc_acm messages only. Including failed to set dtr/rts01:47

ewenOf note, my working "blink" example window is using tinyprog 1.0.18, and the litex-buildenv one is using tinyprog 1.0.22b101:55

ewen1.0.22b1 is a beta pre-release; there's a 1.0.23 at https://pypi.org/project/tinyprog/#history, although there's still apparently no Python3 wheel (https://github.com/tinyfpga/TinyFPGA-Bootloader/issues/25)02:01
tpbTitle: tinyprog · PyPI (at pypi.org)02:01
ewenIn theory since https://github.com/timvideos/litex-buildenv/pull/119 we're installing tinyprog from github (not PyPI)02:02

ewenmithro: Looks like it might be file length related.  If I do "make image-flash" then it successfully programs.  If I do "make gateware-flash" then it fails on every attempt.02:06
ewenmithro: As best I can tell from TinyFPGA discourse thread that bug is supposed to be fixed in Oct 2018, possibly by 1.0.23. (But for some reason we're still installing 1.0.22b1 as best I can tell.)02:06

ewenmithro: Seems like TinyProg has 1.0.22b1 version in the *git* version: https://github.com/tinyfpga/TinyFPGA-Bootloader/blob/0b70c51b8a3fa6b4b2ce4f8d31435ec80d0c8a3f/programmer/setup.py#L1402:56

ewenYet https://pypi.org/project/tinyprog/#history has a 1.0.23 (but apparently only for Python 2).02:57
tpbTitle: tinyprog · PyPI (at pypi.org)02:57
ewenFTR, I've tried to encourage tinyfpga to release 1.0.23 in a way it can be installed on Python 3 (see, https://discourse.tinyfpga.com/t/issues-with-tinyprog-u-on-bx/628/16 and https://github.com/tinyfpga/TinyFPGA-Bootloader/issues/25#issuecomment-452556842)03:23
