02:26:26preglowhaha
02:26:26preglowwell
02:26:34preglowit didn't work at first
02:26:37preglowi had to hack the x config file

02:27:03ashridahby hack, i presume you mean 'enter sane values for the vert and horizontal refreshes' ?
02:27:06ashridahah.
02:27:08preglowno
02:27:12preglowa nvidia driver option
02:27:18ashridahyeah, that can be a little more fun.
02:27:25preglowbesides, it's an lcd panel
02:27:28preglowno refresh values ;)

10:47:10*rasher debugs fwpatcher.exe
10:49:42rashersomething's wrong..
10:49:51rasherit rejects a properly patched file..
10:49:52rashero.O
10:52:23rasheruh.. the code seems wrong.. it checks the md5sums one by one, and aborts as soon as it sees one that doesn't match, or am I reading it wrong?

10:57:50Bagderit should rather do the opposite ;-)
10:58:08rasherthat's what I thought
10:58:18rasherstill, one of my tests should have turned out successesful
10:58:47rasheroh, no
10:59:00rasherit would just try the next, and error there
10:59:03rashert/hee
10:59:14rasherI think I may be able to handle this..

11:14:01amiconnLinusN: Did you read about Jörg's proposal for mutexes in the logs? (A mutex should not block if it is already owned by the same thread)
11:14:20amiconnWhat do you think? Would this be a good idea, or promote sloppy coding?
11:14:54amiconnImplementation should be simple, provided that the mutex functions are moved to thread.c (where they belong anyway imho)
11:18:33rasherfwpatcher worked!
11:19:05rasherexcept not
11:19:51rasheroh, it does
11:20:17rasherdidn't expect patching an already firmware would be succesful, but I can see why
11:21:49t0masamiconn: imo making that mutex non blocking for the thread that locked it would promote very sloppy thread coding...
11:22:19t0masbut maybe there is a good use for it... that I missed
11:22:31rashera compromise would be to detect the condition, and yell at the developer doing it :)
11:22:49t0masyes
11:23:24*rasher commits fwpatcher bugfix
11:23:57rashertested it on all 1.65/1.63 firmwares, and it produced sane md5sums
11:24:05t0masnice
11:25:19rasherI should probably test if it detects errors as well.. :-S
11:26:09LinusNamiconn: i'm not sure i want that
11:26:22LinusNlet me think about it
11:26:44rasherexcellent, it detected a corrupt file

11:34:56LinusNhow do i build fwpatcher?
11:35:07*[IDC]Dragon read in the log about mutexes
11:35:09rasheryou need mingw
11:35:17LinusNaha
11:35:20rasherand then it's just a case of running make in the dir
11:35:46LinusNafter copying bootloader.bin there...
11:35:52rasherright :)
11:36:16rasherthe 2005-02-11 bootloader.bin that is
11:36:21amiconnLinusN, t0mas: This is the way ordinary windows mutexes work, and pthread mutexes do also know this operating mode (recursive)
11:36:37[IDC]Dragonin order to not promote sloppy coding, we could instead panic if the thread already owns the mutex
11:36:39amiconnCurrently, rockbox mutexes work like 'fast' mutexes
11:37:23*LinusN goes to lunch
11:37:27amiconn[IDC]Dragon: The pthread_mutex_lock manpage is very interesting
11:39:26[IDC]DragonI've seen more interesting reading... ;-)
11:43:35[IDC]Dragonamiconn: on a different subject, I never reviewed you 2GB MMC changes, but it looked like less than I suspected
11:43:59[IDC]Dragondid something work in favour of you?
11:44:17[IDC]Dragonlike, partial block access or so
11:46:18*[IDC]Dragon wonders if there is a MMC to CF adapter
11:46:48[IDC]Dragonso I could use me MMC in my cameras' CF slot
11:46:55[IDC]Dragons/me/my
11:49:02amiconnThere are quite some changes, but I streamlined the driver as well
11:49:16amiconnThere is a block cache function now
11:49:54amiconnMost MMCs can do partial block access on read. If they can, it's also enabled by default.
11:50:27amiconnHowever, there are not many cards that can do partial block access on write.
11:50:52amiconnMy guess is that the 2 GB card can, but it's not enabled by default
11:51:20amiconnEnabling it would require programming the CSD, which in turn requires a CRC7 routine
11:52:49amiconnSo my solution to cache whole blocks when dealing with partial block data is not necessarily the fastest, but it's simpler and more compatible

11:54:34Shagnarhiho guys
11:57:31rashermorning
12:00
12:16:23Shagnaris it possible to copy files on the H1x0 with rockbox ?
12:16:48rashernot afaik
12:17:04rasherWhy would you?
12:17:17rasher(not opposing the idea, just wondering)
12:17:43Shagnarbecause
12:18:30Shagnarin holidays... i could fill my ifp795 (512mb) with my H without a pc (i don't have a pc for the two weeks)
12:18:47Shagnaralso i could organize the songs on my H
12:19:11rasherhow would that work?
12:23:01ashridahShagnar: the H1xx don't have usb-host mode capabilities.
12:23:07ashridahso unless the ifp-795 does...
12:23:11Shagnarit works
12:23:20Shagnarwith a so known "usb-on-the-go-copy-box"
12:23:33ashridahyes.
12:23:37Shagnare.g. i can transfer files from my cam on to my H
12:23:44Shagnarthat works, that is not the problem
12:23:44ashridahexcept that requires extra hardware
12:23:44ashridahthe H3xx has it
12:23:46ashridahH1xx's do not
12:24:10Shagnarbut the host function of the H3xx is not as compataible as a copybox
12:24:25Shagnarmy cam isn't supportet by the h3xx, but by the copybox
12:25:08 Join preglow [0] (thomj@s183a.studby.ntnu.no)
12:25:28ashridahwell, usb<->harddrive support is pretty much completely controlled by a hardware chip inside the iriver hardware. rockbox just flips a few bits to enable it, and goes to sleep.
12:25:33ashridahso rockbox can't really do anything about it
12:25:47preglowhahahha
12:25:57preglowthat's one of my nicer bugs, no doubt
12:26:03rasherIndeed :)
12:26:23rasherI guess it worked when you had only one md5sum in the list?
12:26:28preglowBagder: i got dead pixels on my 2001fp :/
12:26:41Shagnarthe copybox manages the usb<>hdd support
12:26:46Shagnarthat all works
12:27:05Shagnarmy problem is that i can't copy files on my H
12:27:42rasherwhy do you need to copy?
12:27:52rasherisn't rename(/move) what you want?
12:29:54ashridahpreglow: already? bugger
12:30:19Shagnarrasher its like that:
12:30:48Shagnarby creating a dir named "copybox" in the /root i can also copy vom H140 to any other usb device
12:31:09Shagnarso i oculd copy the songs i want to have on the target in this directory and then copy these files
12:31:26Shagnari hope you understand, my englisch isn't the best ;o)
12:31:50rasherAh, I understand now
12:32:00***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
12:32:03rasherdoes copybox remove the contents of this dir+
12:36:11Shagnarno
12:36:17Shagnarjust copies
12:36:48rasherin theory you could move the files there, then back again :)
12:36:48Shagnarwhy? is rockbox able to move files?
12:37:02Shagnarwow!
12:37:04rasherI forget..
12:37:07Shagnarbut how?
12:37:10rasherhang on.. I'm unsure :)
12:37:54rasherit seems not :)
12:38:47rasheroh, it is
12:38:59rasherrename to '/root/copybox/filename'
12:39:07rasherit's not exactly convenient
12:39:09 Part LinusN
12:39:55amiconnrasher: Someone should write a norton commander plugin...
12:40:00rasherHaha
12:40:34Shagnarrasher what do u mean? didn't undertand really... how can i move files?
12:40:55rasherif you rename a file to something including a path, it will be moved as well
12:41:54Shagnarah
12:42:01Shagnarnow i did understand
12:42:09rasherBut as I said, it's not very practical
12:42:25rasherespecially not when you have to move a lot of files
12:42:40Shagnaryes it isn't. but the files don't get lost or something?
12:43:39rasherno, but I'm not sure how it handles if the path doesn't exist
12:44:35rasherAh, 'rename failed'.. that's fine
12:44:44Shagnaryeah
12:44:49Shagnar:-(
12:45:04rasherwhy :(?
12:45:26Shagnartried it but didn't work... hmm encore une fois
12:45:58rasheroh, you shouldn't include /root/
12:46:00rasherjust /
12:46:30rashersorry about that :)
12:46:51Shagnarah fine
12:46:55Shagnarnow it works
12:47:12Shagnarwell, not very practical but it works :) can i also move directories like that?
12:47:19rasherno idea
12:48:13amiconnShagnar: Should work too, just try it
12:48:24Shagnarkk :)
12:48:26rasherfailed..
12:48:35amiconnHmm
12:48:41Shagnar...
12:48:57rasherdoesn't look like that's worknig
12:49:33Shagnarwell, the most important thing is moving files, and that's working altough
12:51:00Shagnarthanks a lot

13:13:27preglowLinusN: would you happen to know how the emac unit does pipelining? i can't find it mentioned in any of the docs
13:13:50LinusNin what respect?
13:15:31preglowi know it pipelines the partial multiplies if i do several mac instructions on the same accumulator
13:15:43preglowbut does it work the same if i work with different accumulators in each instruction?
13:16:36preglowright now i do the latter in windowing, so i can better avoid the accumulator fetch stalling, BUT on the assumption that pipelining works the way i hope
13:17:34LinusNi'm not sure how it works
13:17:52preglowno, and motorola has not seen the need to mention it
13:19:12LinusNhttp://www.freescale.com/files/dsp/doc/white_paper/MCF5XXXDSPWP.pdf
13:19:48preglowread it, and it's on the mac arch, not emac
13:19:54LinusNah
13:20:02preglowso no multiple accumulators
13:22:24preglowbut i see no reason for the pipelining not working with different accumulators, from how the emac unit internals are described
13:22:59LinusNme neither
13:25:09preglowthought i'm starting to think the long multiplies doesn't pipeline the way i thought at all
13:25:34preglow32 bit multiplies reuse the 16 bit multipliers iteratively to produce a 64 bit result
13:25:49LinusNouch
13:25:53preglowi don't see how that can pipeline at all to get a 1 cycle/mac throughput
13:26:05preglowbut that's what motorola claims is possible
13:32:39LinusNso interleaving accumulator usage is pointless then
13:33:31preglowi should do some timing tests
13:36:18preglowgod damn, this monitor makes viewing pdfs even more of a pleasuer
13:36:20preglowpleasure, even
13:37:20LinusN2001fp with dvi...aaaaahh
13:37:42preglowutilized the dvi immediately, yes
13:37:58t0mas*pling*
13:38:05t0masI still have to buy a DVI cable
13:38:13rasherhow does one create an .ico?
13:38:58LinusNi once heard about this: http://www.axiomx.com/PixelToolbox/
13:39:31ashridahrasher: grab kiconedit or himp
13:39:32ashridahgimp even
13:39:47rasherah, gimp
13:39:52rasherthat works
13:40:11ashridahhmm. actually, kiconedit doesn't actually do .ico
13:40:17ashridahuseless thing
13:40:25preglowno, their emac propaganda brochure seems to say the 32x32 bit mul is fully pipelined
13:40:45preglowcoffeecoffeecoffee
13:40:56rasherblack power :D
13:43:07preglowhahah
13:51:20rasherfun, now my rockbox isn't shutting down
13:54:03preglowrasher: mine doesn't either
13:54:09preglowi had it on for eight hours without knowing it
13:54:23rasherit does some times.. I think
13:54:55preglowThe EMAC has a single-clock issue for 32x32-bit multiplication instructions and implements a four-stage execution pipeline.
13:56:22preglowanother source again says the issue rate is 3 clocks for 32x32 bit muls, but that doc is for the mac unit, i suppose it is possible they also did these kinds of enhancements when designing emac
14:00

14:25:55t0masLynx_: and there is a dutch law, all organisations collecting personal info (like name, email, ip etc..) must send you all they have about you on request
14:25:58t0mas(within 4 weeks)
14:26:07Lynx_ah, ok
14:26:25t0masso everybody sends a letter to the dutch equivalent of the RIAA, and they have to respond in 4 weeks
14:26:27Lynx_maybe we have that in germany too
14:26:38t0mascheck it ;)
14:26:40HCl :P
14:26:51Lynx_what info do you assume they have?
14:26:52HClthis'll be fun.
14:26:56HClthats not the point
14:26:57HClthe point is
14:27:07HClthey have to process 10000's of letters
14:27:09HClin 4 weeks
14:27:14HClor they'll get sued
14:27:14HCl :P
14:27:20Lynx_by whom?
14:27:27HClby us, who're sending the letters :)
14:27:34t0masHCl: no, dutch: "Kanton rechter procedure, met een dwangsom van 1000 euro per week telaat."
14:27:41Lynx_HCl: would you really go throught the trouble of sueing them?
14:27:42rasherhttp://rasher.dk/rockbox/icon/

14:27:59HClLynx_: yes, actually, since it would pay me 1000 euro per week, and my dads a lawyer :)
14:28:11t0masLOL
14:28:17Lynx_HCl: hehe. Can germans send a letter, too?
14:28:21HClno :P
14:28:24preglowrasher: where is the source material you use?
14:28:30t0masHCl: if they don't respond... post your dads e-mail address somewhere
14:28:34Lynx_it's like DDOSing by mail...
14:28:38HClit is :P

14:43:19HClI have an H140 and it was a "snug" fit to say the least but it eventually fitted.

14:45:24HClthere have been 3 people who've confirmed that it fits (snugly) into the h140
14:45:25HCl :)
14:45:59ashridahmm. fortunately the li-polys tend to be relatively flexible, since they don't have to worry about going up in flames if they're cut (iirc)

15:57:38LinusNit's a bdm port
15:57:46ripnetukso thats a different standard to jtag?

15:59:19Bagdernot really "worked with", just used
15:59:22preglowi've used it a couple of times

16:00:53preglowi sure as hell wouldn't know any other way

16:01:25ripnetuki guess it wouldnt :)
16:01:54ripnetukthe reason i ask is because I have a shiny new sony PSP that is dying to run some homebrew apps, but its locked (code signing etc)
16:02:12rasherdidn't the psp get cracked recently=
16:02:23LinusNthe japanese version iirc
16:02:33ripnetukthey found an explit on the version 1.0 firmware, but the newer firmware is locked down
16:03:23ripnetukdammit - if they allowed (small) unsigned binaries to run, it would be much less likely that people would try and break the protection
16:05:04preglowit would also make it far easier to break the protection

20:45:11preglowyes, as long as you know it won't be usable
20:45:21preglowunless you make some math routines, that is
20:48:02HClmmm?
20:48:07HClyea yea.. :/
20:48:16HClat least the other day i came across a way to do sqrt()
20:48:35HCli'll start by converting the floats.

20:52:45HClno typedefs in rockbox, right?
20:58:58preglowoh, there are plenty of ways
20:59:23preglowdon't know about typedefs
21:00
21:00:27preglowthe stupid way about doing the float->int conversion first, is that you don't know if the code worked in the first place
21:01:48amiconnIt should be possible to test that. Before doing the conversion, write the test plugin and build on the simulator (with math support)
21:02:36HClpreglow: i tested the code with a linux compile, it worked.
21:02:53HCli'm planning to make a fixed point linux version first.
21:03:02HClit should be fairly trivial to port that to rockbox then.

21:19:14HClmerf.
21:19:20HClit shouldn't have compiled already, why did it >.<
21:22:03HClwth..
21:22:44preglowwoot
21:23:36preglowfixed point linux port first might be a good idea
21:23:53preglowif you're particularily clever, you'll write a set of macros that closely mimic the emac unit, and try to work with those
21:26:27*HCl spots pi
21:26:32HCli don't know the emac unit, sorry
21:27:34HClour approximation of pi is gonna be horrid though.
21:27:59preglowwhy?
21:28:00HCldunno how much quality loss that'll cause.
21:28:11HClnot many bits for behind the fixed point dot.
21:28:30HClit'll be something like 3.141 :/
21:28:31preglowwell, that depends on the range you'll use
21:28:48preglowyou don't HAVE to use the same fixed point format everywhere
21:28:54preglowas long as you scale stuff correctly
21:29:07HCldoubling the amount of bits would still give 3.14159 :/
21:29:09HClmk..
21:29:14HClwe might get away with it anyways.
21:30:36preglowyou should review the code completely to see where the largest scale is
21:30:52preglowand use that for deciding how many bits to use
21:31:23preglowbut yeah, i sincerely doubt you'll end up using pi in fixed point code anyway
21:31:40preglowfunctions like log, exp should be implemented as lookup tables
21:31:51preglowpossibly with interpolation
21:34:45HClmk
21:35:30preglowforget what i said about scaling, i suck
21:36:03*amiconn spotted an easy-to-fix bug in the tracker
21:36:07preglowbut anyway, emac can do both 32x32 bit muls giving the lower and the higher 32 bits
21:36:10amiconnStill a quite old one :/
21:36:45preglowit actually gives you the higher bits of x*y << 1
21:36:54preglowand operands are signed
21:38:18amiconnuergh
21:47:52*HCl screams at the horrible floats

22:00:36amiconnI don't like them that much
22:01:07amiconn...and in fact, I like it that rockbox style is to not use them
22:01:10HCli use them for what they are meant for, - single lines :/
22:01:12HClbut yea
22:01:16HCli need to convert mine too.
22:01:18amiconnThat way I can use them as debug comments
22:02:02amiconnThey look so C++ish to me....

22:20:34HCli use oo when speed isn't very important.
22:21:12preglowthere's nothing that says oo is slow
22:22:17HCli know from experience that it often is :)
22:22:37HClsimply due to more functions getting called cause of the oo structure
22:23:46preglowreally?
22:23:58HClyes.
22:24:05preglowif you inline the accessors and stuff, you shouldn't fare too bad
22:24:19HClyea, i guess you're right about that
22:24:22HClinlining would help
22:24:33preglowoo depends heavily on inlinging
22:24:40HCl*nods*
22:24:44preglowfor stuff like overloaded operators and accessors
22:24:58preglowgcc 3.4 bugged on me and stopped inlining operator[] for vectors once
22:25:09preglowi believe you can imagine what a performance hit that gave
22:25:15HClhehe.
22:25:47HClconverting dumb to fixed point is making me want to scream.
22:25:55preglowjust ask if there's some difficulties
22:26:00HCli think there are gonna be soooooooooooooooooo many bugs due to places i've overlooked
22:26:05preglowof course
22:26:07HCli'm going off http://members.aol.com/form1/fixed.htm
22:26:09preglowdo it in pieces
22:26:13preglowand verify each stage
22:26:24preglowas long as that is possible
22:26:28HClnot very :/
22:26:39preglowif i don't remember incorrectly, the only things that are float are volume and delteas
22:26:47preglowvolume is a no-effort port
22:26:48HCli don't know whether functions return an int or a float, a float needs conversion where an int doesn't if its just multiplication..
22:26:51preglowso you're stuck with delta
22:27:08HClvolume is a no effort port?
22:27:13HClthen can you do that for me first? heh.
22:27:15preglowvolume is just a multiply
22:27:21HClmost of what i've done so far is volume and delta, yea.
22:27:39preglowwhat range is volume intended to have?
22:28:03 Quit TCK (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
22:29:24HClno idea.
22:29:26HCloh wait
22:29:27HClno i know.
22:29:34HCl0.0 - 1.0
22:29:46preglowthen simple
22:30:01preglowthe emac units native format is +/-0.31 fixed point
22:30:03preglowwhich is what that is
22:30:54preglowso whenever you need to scale by volume, you just do a simple mac.l data, volume, acc0
22:31:03preglowand the answer will be ready to be used in acc0
22:32:13***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
22:32:18HClum.
22:32:22HCli'll leave that to you :X :X :X
22:32:26preglowhaha
22:32:41preglowbut to make that job simple on me, you really need to consider it now
22:33:04preglowit's really quite simple, you just need to know what operations the emac can do, and stick to that
22:36:44HClmmm...
22:36:45HClwell
22:36:49HCli think i finished.
22:37:22preglowand all the emac unit can do is accx += a*b, if it's in integer mode
22:37:31preglowor accx += a*b << 1, if it's in fractional mode
22:37:54preglowin integer mode you can only fetch the lower 32 bit of the accumulator
22:38:01preglowand in fractional mode you can only get the upper 32 bits
22:39:01preglowyou'll probably mostly be interested in the upper bits, so you'll probably need fractional mode
22:39:21preglowoh, it can also do accx -= a*b (<< 1) in both modes
22:40:33HClo.o.
22:40:40*HCl smiles and nods, having no clue what preglow is trying to say
22:41:29preglowwhat, what's incomprehensible?
22:42:33HCldon't know how to apply that to the existing code :/
22:44:04preglowthen you're going to have a hard time :P
22:44:22HCli'll leave that to you :(
22:44:35preglowbut no, it's of course possible to port it fixed point knowing nothing of that
22:44:37HCli'll be happy if it still plays recognisable sounds after the conversion to fixed point
22:44:57preglowbut then parts of the job will have to be done again when trying to use the emac unit
22:45:03preglowheh
22:45:12preglowbut sure
22:45:22preglowif it's a first attempt at fixed point porting, don't worry about anything

22:49:34HCli give up x.x;
22:49:35preglowthen you're missing out
22:49:41preglowHCl: that was quick
22:49:42HCl"warning: division by 0"
22:49:57HClyea, well. i don't have enough fixed point stuff to prevent divisions by 0
22:50:02HCland i don't want to have to deal with that u.u
22:50:12HCl :(
22:50:14preglowyou do of course have to have an if around divs
22:50:19preglowunless you know they'll never be zero
22:50:24HClno.
22:50:30HCli KNOW this will ALWAYS be 0
22:50:36HClbecause its simply too small
22:50:38HClto represent
22:50:39preglowthen you're doing something wwrong
22:50:44HCl :(
22:50:49preglowuse more frac bits
22:50:58preglowwhere is this, btw?
22:51:03HClthen i'll get trouble when multiplying them..
22:51:12HCl playing->delta = DIVFX(FTOFX(1.0/65536.0),playing->delta);
22:51:17preglowyou need to shift before multiplying
22:51:27HCli can't, then i lose precision.
22:51:31preglowof course
22:51:32preglowbut that's ok
22:51:37HClugh :(
22:51:39HCli give up :(
22:51:41preglowthere's nothing that says you can never lose precision
22:51:51HClyou can look at what i got so far if you want :/
22:51:54HClshall i put it online? :(

22:52:09HClokay.
22:52:10HClx.x
22:52:14HCl :(
22:52:19preglowthe problem being i can't do this until late in the summer
22:52:26preglowi need to concentrate on my master's stuff right now
22:52:42preglowwhich i am already having a hard time in doing
22:52:56HClmhm.
22:53:03HClyea, i don't blame you.
22:53:08HCli'm just not very good at math :/
22:53:23preglowdoing fixed point is really more like being good with bits
22:53:29HClmhm.
22:53:44preglowthe math is the same, you just need to make sure there is always enough precision to represent what you want
22:54:02HClwell, this delta is gonna become 0, there's no way i'll have enough precision for it..
22:54:43preglowwhat's going on in that code, btw? you're going to divide playing->delta by 1.0/65536 ?
22:54:57HClno, we divide 1.0/65536 by delta
22:55:00HCland store it in delta
22:55:13HCle.e
22:55:30preglowahh, yes, i meant that :-)
22:55:48preglowwhy is that being done?
