#rockbox log for 2013-01-26

00:02:21benj007I have to go, byee
00:02:25benj007and thanks
00:02:35 Quit benj007 (Quit: Leaving...)
00:03:58 Part eckoit
00:05:08Marexpamaury: hey, interesting
00:05:36Marexpamaury: if I write the GRAM by hand (using writereg(0x22, value) in a loop), the smartLCD displays the stuff
00:06:44pamaurythat means you have a problem with dma setup
00:07:08pamaurycan you try without bypass ? just send N pixels and stop
00:07:23Marexyah
00:08:11pamauryat least the lcd setup is correct, that's a good thing
00:08:16Marexpamaury: yep
00:08:26Marexpamaury: it seems it's really this OTM2201A
00:08:37Marexbtw no luck on "that" stmp datashit
00:09:01pamauryI don't remember how I find out this was a OTM2201A. Any reason ?
00:10:05Marexpamaury: it just matches well with the datasheet
00:10:24pamauryyeah but do you know how many controllers there are out there ?! :)
00:13:38Marexpamaury: yea well if it's a clone, it's a good one
00:14:23pamauryanyway, those lcd datasheet are close to useless for us
00:16:27pamauryso what about the dma without bypass ?
00:22:55Marexsame thing, lemme poke into it for a bit
00:24:00MarexI think there's an issue when it's receiving data via RGB IF
00:25:35pamauryif it words with writereg but not with dma that clearing means something is wrong with the dma, that's exactly the same protocol. Stupid question but are you sure that xres is a multiple of 2 ?
00:25:59Marexhm, let's see
00:26:06pamauryor even that xres and yres are nonzero ?!
00:26:25Marexpamaury: they're \mathbb{N} for sure :p
00:26:39pamaury^^
00:27:09Marexnah ... I ate too much today, I'm not getting into such a discussion :
00:27:10Marex:)
00:27:39Marexsomething is clearly wrong, but something is also clearly written
00:27:58Marexsince I see two black stripes emerging from the bottom of the screen with a white stripe inbetween
00:28:06pamaurywith dma ?
00:28:21Marexyea
00:28:33pamaurybypass count ?
00:29:04Marexbut I also have 0xc of the smartLCD set to 0x111 (RGBIF, RGBIF, 16bpp)
00:29:46pamauryhum, do whatever you want but I told you, with the OF value (0) it works, if you put something else, I don't know what will happen
00:29:54pamauryi'll have to read the datasheet because of you !
00:30:15Marexpamaury: I can read it myself too, you know :p
00:30:34pamauryyeah but some terms might not refer to what you think
00:31:03pamauryI get suspicous when I see RGBIF
00:31:51Marexoh
00:31:53Marexwait up (!)
00:32:03pamauryok, so you *don't* want to set 0xc to 0x111, that's a bad idea, the lcdif is setup in system mode, not RGB
00:33:35Marexpamaury: yep, you were right
00:33:42MarexI think now I managed to get _some_ output
00:33:45Marexlet's see
00:33:54pamauryyou can try with 0x11
00:34:42pamauryexternal clock is useful only for RGB interface when sending moving pictures
00:34:50pamauryso 0x1 would suffice
00:35:02pamauryand about 16 vs 18 bit, I must says I'm confused
00:35:54pamaurybecause the OF set it to 0x0 so 18-bit, but I'm pretty my driver set databus to 16-bit
00:36:35pamaury*sure
00:36:39Marexpamaury: yep
00:36:40 Join ender` [0] (~ender@foo.eternallybored.org)
00:36:45Marexpamaury: it's weird
00:36:48pamaurythat *might* mean that they wired the bus in a weird way
00:37:46pamaurythey probably wire lcdif_{0-7} to lcd_{1-8} and lcdif_{8-15} to lcd_{10-17}, I don't see another explaination
00:38:22pamauryanyway, setting reg 0xc to 0x0 or 0x1 is safe, at worse you'll get bad colours
00:38:25Marexpamaury: check PM please

00:54:44Tornewell this ipod problem is really entertaining. :)
00:55:13Torneipodvideo with ssd, the bootloader can access the disk just fine but rockbox fails to see it in RDY state during ata_init
01:00
01:04:44pamauryMarex: so, any success when setting reg 0xc to 1 or 0 ?
01:04:58 Quit ender` (Quit: Punch a psychic today: ask them if they saw it coming.)

01:13:06pamaurycan you upload your new code ?
01:14:13pamauryMarex: is it normal that it is rotated ?
01:17:05pamauryotherwise the output looks good, except for the colour inversion
01:17:46Marexpamaury: the color is ok, where is it inverted ?
01:18:00Marexpamaury: it's rotated because I set up the LCD controller to do so
01:18:03pamauryah ok, strange colour then :p
01:18:15Marexit's the bloody camera on my gaylaxy nexus junker
01:18:34pamauryso this is working picture then, and dma doesn't work yet
01:18:34Marexstill, automated refresh doesn't work, which sux
01:18:46MarexI can trigger refresh manually ... no good
01:18:48Marextime to hack on DMA

16:55:40pamauryyou wouldn't want to write a FTL
16:55:47MarexI understood from the rockbox website they did something horrible
16:55:57Marexpamaury: we have all the NAND stuff for MX28 in U-Boot for a while now :)
16:56:21pamauryyeah but I'm not quite sure that the FTL is same for all stmps
16:56:40pamaurybeside, vendors sometimes introduce subtle modifications ^^
16:56:44Marexpamaury: it doesn't matter to me, I'll wipe it clean anyway and put UBI/UBIFS on it
16:57:08pamauryok ^^, anyway with sd you don't have to worry. What do you mean by something horrible ?
16:57:28pamauryif you are adventurous, I could suggest something for continuous lcd refresh but I have no idea if it will work, I need to test on my xfi3 before
17:00
17:00:59Marexpamaury: let's just discard the LCD for a while now
17:01:11Marexpamaury: I got it working enough to be able to use it to debug stuff :)
17:01:40Marexpamaury: my understanding was that the Phison 8007 chip was somehow converting SD interface to NAND interface
17:01:45Marexpamaury: which would be really awkward
17:01:48pamauryok, but i want to test a theory
17:02:00pamauryyes it does, why would that be awkard ?
17:02:34Marexpamaury: how is SD connected over SSP then?
17:02:43Marexam I missing some essential part there ?
17:03:07Marexconnecting SD on GPMI bus is awkward ;-)

17:04:26Marexthat is the only thing I fail to understand
17:04:40Marexerr ... s/SD-GPMI/SD-NAND/
17:05:10pamaurythe Phison 8007 provides you with a SD interface and does the low-level nand stuff by itself so you don't have do care
17:05:54pamauryyou don't even have to program it
17:05:57Marexpamaury: so the SD is really connected to the GPMI bus through this chip ?
17:06:12pamauryno, the sd is connected to the ssp
17:06:37Marexso it's the other way around then? NAND is connected through this chip to SSP bus ?
17:07:06pamaurySOC (ssp2) <=> (SD) Phison (NAND) <=> NAND
17:07:36Marexso you dont use GPMI for NAND ... I see
17:07:48pamaurythe imx is connect to the Phison on the ssp (sd) bus, and the phison is connected to the nand on a nand bus which is not connected to the soc
17:08:00pamauryyou just can't use the gpmi
17:08:09pamauryexcept if they wired both but I really doubt it
17:08:22Marexok, so GPMI block is not used in the CPU
17:08:28pamauryno
17:08:30Marexpamaury: the external SD is wired to where ?
17:08:37pamauryssp1
17:08:45Marexoh, good :)
17:08:47Marexnow I get it
17:08:49Marexthanks
17:09:06Marexlooks like I can boot Linux with ease now
17:09:07pamaurysee my sdmmc-imx233 driver for the boring details about power pin
17:09:24Marexpamaury: helpful, thanks
17:10:01pamauryiirc the internal sd just works (TM) but the microsd slot has a power pin and need a power up delay
17:10:04Marexpamaury: btw ad LCD, so far I put update() call after getc() handler for the fb console driver ... does what is needed ;-)
17:10:14Marexpamaury: that's ok, thanks :)
17:10:56pamaurywhat is funny is that on the three imx233 targets, none of them use the same convention for power and insertion detect, some use active low, some active high
17:12:09pamaurynow, let's test my lcd theory

19:27:27pamauryhum, mine doesn't match, interesting
19:27:32pamaurywhat is the name of the updater ?
19:27:40pamaurymine is ZENX-FiStyle_PCFW_L22_1_03_04e.exe

19:29:15mtZENX-FiStyle_PCFW_L22_1_03_04.exe
19:29:19mtno 'e'
19:30:17pamauryok, probably europe vs rest of the world
19:30:19mtDo they have different fw for different 'zones'? like eu, us, etc.?
19:30:26mtAlright then.
19:30:45pamauryhum, so yours might not have the same size, did you try to extract it or not ?
19:32:39mtNo I didn't.
19:33:46pamauryok, i'll commit it and it the number is not right, you'll change it ^^
19:37:26mtFine. :)
19:37:54pamaurymt: done
19:38:21pamauryso update to lastest git, compile rbutilq/mkimxboot/ (just make)

19:40:17pamauryusually the first file is called firmware.sb

20:40:24Marexlol :)
20:40:51pamauryfirst, why would creative release a player in 2012 with a stmp3770 while it used a stmp3780 previously ?
20:41:02pamaurysecond, why does the chipid of the stmp3770 is 0x37b0 ??
20:41:05Marexmanagers :)
20:41:11Marexsave money on the dram chip
20:41:27Marexmaybe its a custom design by fsl
20:41:44Marexwhy does it have sgtl branching, I dunno
20:42:14pamauryall other stmp37xx use chipid 0x3700, so this chip seems strange, maybe we don't know everything about it. Otoh, some sigmatel documents found on the internet show the stmp3770 as a normal chip
20:42:50Marexmaybe it was supposed to be the next one in the line before they were acquired
20:43:02pamauryanyway, for sure it has 512Kb of sram and apparently no dram
20:43:15Marexwoohoo

21:20:07pamauryis uses the apbh dma
21:20:11pamaury*it
21:20:31pamaurywhile the apbh is not documented as being capable of driving the LCDIF, it is capable of it in fact
21:20:37pamauryit's device 0
21:20:45Marexso you pump junk into the register 22 :D
21:20:59Marexusing the "PIO write" mode
21:21:00MarexI see
21:21:03pamauryand it can write a single PIO word as part of the dma command: CTRL.
21:21:18Marexit can write up to 16 PIO words :)
21:21:28pamauryThere are two very important details though !
21:21:30Marexcan you configure it to write to certain offset though ?
21:21:44pamauryit will automatically write to the good location
21:22:17pamaurydo you know how the dma bridge of the mx23 works ?
21:23:36pamauryanyway, here is a working example on my zenxfi3: http://pastebin.com/uCiYvjMe
21:24:33pamauryyou must setup several dma commands, chain them together in circle. The first one writes a single PIO word: CTRL which must set the RUN bit, and the last one must have the WAIT4ENDCMD bit set to wait for the LCDIF to finish the transfer
21:24:52Marexpamaury: the DMA is horrible
21:25:12Marexpamaury: I didn't figure out if it's possible to program it to write to register offset (like ... write to the DATA register only)
21:25:14pamauryI find it very nice actually, it's complicated but useful
21:25:57Marexoh, it pumps the stuff to DATA register via the DMA part of the transfer
21:25:59MarexI see, nice :)
21:26:06pamaurythat's implicit: a dma commands always write to the DATA register, but you can setup additional PIO writes starting at register 0, that's optional though
21:26:14Marexpamaury: yep
21:26:26Marexpamaury: had my fun with this junk both in uboot and linux already :)
21:26:58pamaurybeware: if you use the dma that way, the dma command CANNOT write any other regiter that HW_LCDIF_CTRL using the PIO command words

21:38:41Marexpamaury: how did you figure that out anyway ?
21:39:16pamauryit has a DRI interface too (documented in the STMP3600 datasheet) and it has a colorspace converter in the DCP (undocumented anywhere). Sigmatel linux port + registers + reverse engineering
21:40:21pamauryit's also possible that the stmp3780 has ATA support, it didn't test
