ARM64 mfpu=neon-fp-armv8 and unrecognized command line option

Posted by on 2020/03/20 No comments

又學到一個小知識

原因是因為 -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8 是 arm32 compiler option ARM64 使用 Linux ABI 那邊就規範要支援 Floatpoint 和 ASIMD(也就是 neon 的 64bit 版 )

不要用 -mfpu 指令就可以了

It’s easy. it needs to install helm first and just run following command

Posted by on 2019/11/01 No comments

My original target purpose is very simple, build deploy several webserver and assigned a external ip for internet to access it.

Most kubernetes newbie install guide won’t mention how to do that. actually that’s very simple, for external ip, it needs a load balance controller like metallb for create a external ip address to access web server. and an Ingress contoller like Traefik for http/https route to right pods .

Raspberry 4 Pi + Kubuntu

Posted by on 2019/11/01 No comments

買了二塊 Raspberry 4 Pi 回來，本來是準備裝 K8s 的，但是在這之前要先跑個 ubuntu image 才對.

我買 Raspberry 4 Pi 的時候知道他要用 5V3A 的電源，但是我沒有想到我自己沒有 5V3A 的 USB 變壓器，手機用的含 Apple 87W USB-C 變壓器都不足瓦
Apple 87W 只能輸出 5V 2.4A
最後找了一個 Sony 可以輸出 5V 2.7A 才可以用，所以如果要買 Raspberry Pi 4 的人請注意一下

另外這一塊的外接是 Micro-HDMI，我也忘了買，記得還要加買 SD Card

Python 取得 PM2.5 和天氣資訊

Posted by on 2019/10/17 No comments

最近終於將很久之前就說要架的室內 PM 2.5 偵測弄起來，上一版是用 Cacti 做的，但是有點過時了，這一版是用 Grafana + Prometheus 做的，看起來就漂亮多了

不過架上去之後的問題是，想比較數值，但是又不想再組一套系統出來，畢竟感測器也是成本，不如就用現成的氣象和環保局的數據吧，反正都只是參考用的，看個大概就好了

QEMU Network Problem When Run With Docker

Posted by on 2019/10/16 No comments

如果 Docker 和 QEMU 同時執行時，QEMU 內部透過 tap interface bridge 到 host network 的網路會出不去

這個問題的原因是 Docker 起來之後，會將 iptables 的 packet forward 預設變成 DROP

這時可以在 Docker 起來的時候將 bridge interface 加到 iptables 規則內即可，首先編輯 systemd docker service
