Raspberry Pi 3B+ problems: no audio, no multimedia

[Thomas Klausner <wiz%NetBSD.org@localhost>]

Hi!

I have a Raspberry Pi 3B+ and tried running NetBSD-current on it,
using the arm7hf distribution.

NetBSD armv7 9.99.92 NetBSD 9.99.92 (GENERIC) #0: Sat Nov 20 01:52:51 UTC 2021  mkrepro%mkrepro.NetBSD.org@localhost:/usr/src/sys/arch/evbarm/compile/GENERIC evbarm

1. audio does not seem to work. From dmesg:

vchiq0: interrupting on icu irq 66
vchiq: vchiq_init_state: slot_zero = 0xbc140000, is_master = 0
vchiq: local ver 8 (min 3), remote ver 8.
vcaudio0 at vchiq0: auds
audio0 at vcaudio0: playback
audio0: slinear_le:16 -> slinear_le:16 2ch 48000Hz, blk 7680 bytes (40ms) for playback
spkr0 at audio0: PC Speaker (synthesized)

it looks good, but when I 'audioplay' a file that works fine on an amd64 machine

foo.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz

audioplay runs for the appropriate amount of time, but I hear nothing.

2. ld0 throws a lot of errors

The SD card came new with the Pi. Is it already dying?

3. omxplayer does not work

I first tried installing a 9.0 binary package, which didn't work, then
I built it myself (from pkgsrc, from scratch, in a sandbox on an
external SSD drive).  The symptoms are that it plays the mp4 file for
a some seconds and then either hangs or segfaults. Backtrace for the
segfault is

(gdb) bt
#0  0x7598be84 in _lwp_kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12
#1  0x7598a9e4 in abort () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12

Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)


4. mpv does not work

Also tried 9.0 binary package first, then built it myself.
It segfaults before it plays anything. The backtrace is

Does any of these work for anyone else?

I used armv7hf because I thought omxplayer would be useful due to the
hardware acceleration, but perhaps aarch64 is better?

Thanks,
