RPI4 Raspbian 64 bit & LinuxCNC

Is that good or bad or meh? Sorry, I have no frame of reference for this.

You're using this on an actual machine in production? Or at least would you trust it to run a milling job for any length of time?

Taking into account the recent update (24/8/2020) of the RaspiOS_arm64,

RaspioOS_64

I redone the Raspbian 64bit RT-Preempt kernel (vers. 5.4.61_rt37) downloadable to this link

64bit RT-Preempt kernel (vers. 5.4.61_rt37

and also the arm64 versions of LinuxCNC (2.8.0 e 2.9.0pre0) downloadable at this link.

LinuxCNC 2.8.0 arm64

LinuxCNC 2.9.0.pre0 arm64

For installation the instructions are the same as those in the my first message of this thread.

Hi elovalvo,
thanks a lot for your work! I tried your release from today morning.

Without any glxgears running it look quite good (still not so good as phillc54's):


But as soon as I start 10 glx gears it look much worse:


I installed according to your description
Linux raspberrypi 5.4.61-rt37-v8+ #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Wed Sep 9 18:58:22 CEST 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux

cat /boot/cmdline.txt
console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=60687991-02 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles processor.max_cstate=1 isolcpus=2,3

any ideas?

Anyone have latency test results with the above 64b kernel with a browser open and playing back a youtube video?

We found that the integrated GPU is the real time killer. We might try using a USB GPU and see how it effects the jitter.

Hello ,

i built on u amd64 linuxcnc 2.9pre with switch kin branch. It works very well.

Now i want to make it all work on raspberry pi4

I'm trying to install a 64-bit Kernel Preemt-rt on my RaspPi4.

: www.instructables.com/64bit-RT-Kernel-Co...or-Raspberry-Pi-4B-/

works well, until the moment when it no longer happens on a simple file copy.


Can you help me please because I am not very easy in the matter.

thank you so much
