#rockbox log for 2008-02-20

00:00:04amiconnBoost/unboost takes 250..500us on PP5022/5024, so it shouldn't be done too often
00:00:27hachiso I'm confused then
00:00:33hachiwith a known issue
00:00:35*amiconn wonders why his linux box doesn't automount the ipod
00:00:39hachinobody rolled back the changes that caused it?
00:00:47 Quit JdGordon|w ("http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client")
00:00:55gevaertsamiconn: a 128k transfer at full speed takes 100 ms, so in comparison boost/unboost is lightning fast
00:01:05hachiI mean, that seems like the perfect candidate for 'hey... maybe I shouldn't have committed this code'
00:01:25 Join JdGordon|w [0] (i=836b0049@gateway/web/ajax/mibbit.com/x-dd01ed3e44b8d762)
00:01:52n1shachi: we are in active development, sometimes things will remain broken until someone figures out the correct fix
00:02:43rasherThe correct fix not always being "revert"
00:03:11hachiwell, I'm a bit stuck because I don't have any decent clue on how to build toolchains for myself... I'll give it a shot
00:04:06n1shachi: you could try out some build from the unsupported builds section in the forum
00:04:59stripwaxn1s - is that suggestion because those builds are old (and unsupported..), or because some of the unsupported builds incorporate fixes for the problem?
00:05:36amiconngevaerts: Mini G2 mounts fine under Linux (debian-amd64). Full speed of course, and there are some differences in dmesg output
00:05:48amiconn(comared to when using apple diskmode)
00:05:49n1sstripwax: at least the ryan temp one is from r 156xx so it's old enough
00:05:50rasherDomonoky, bluebrother (for the logs): You might want to tag/branch rbspeex when tagging/branching rbutil releases
00:06:32jhMikeSwhy worry about running boosted if the device is powered externally?
00:06:43amiconnheat
00:06:49gevaertsamiconn: some differences are expected. Can you paste the dmesg output somewhere ?

00:07:07amiconnThe H10 gets quite warm when running constantly boosted, even when not charging in parallel
00:07:10hachin1s: I'd kinda be more interested in learning how to build toolchains... I've got a nokia tablet that's arm based, and a neo 1973... these things come with a built toolchain so you can just 'go'
00:07:23hachinobody talks about how to build these things properly
00:07:28hachiyou're just supposed to know it somehow
00:07:47stripwaxhachi - you can read the wiki page on rockbox which tells you how to use the prebuilt toolchains
00:07:55n1shachi: well, then I recommend a trip to the wiki :)
00:07:56amiconngevaerts: http://pastebin.ca/910438 First is apple diskmode, second is rockbox usb
00:08:04jhMikeSnothing I have gets very warm running boosted and the core sleeps more anyway
00:08:06hachiI was just up on the wiki, I don't see any section for it
00:08:17n1scheck the CrossCompiler page
00:08:21stripwaxhachi - keep looking, there's a VAST amount of developer info in the wiki..
00:09:20stripwaxstart at "DocsIndex" and then For Developers..
00:09:33gevaertsSpeed results including boosted at http://pastebin.ca/910442
00:09:51stripwaxbtw not necessarily necessary to actually build your own toolchain - ought to be able to use cygwin or vmware as appropriate
00:10:24rashergevaerts: nice speeds
00:10:29amiconngevaerts: How do you test speed?
00:10:50gevaertsamiconn: dd if=/dev/sdc of=/tmp/testfile bs=128k count=100

00:11:05gevaertsamiconn: and then back (so I don't destroy data)
00:11:57hachithat's funny... I figured the front page of the wiki would be the index :\
00:12:23amiconneh? That outputs several hundred MB/s here...
00:12:30scorche|windexes are usually at the end of books...not the beginning..
00:12:49amiconnHmm, no, only if I use the partition
00:13:06scorche|wthen again, it isnt a *true* index
00:13:12stripwaxhachi - no, the front page states "Some pages of interest". wiki is searchable, by the way..
00:13:26amiconn620kB/s without boosting and with whatever blocksize the patch defaults to
00:13:32amiconn(reading)
00:14:06gevaertsI defaults to 64k
00:14:31amiconnHaha, and the write test fails immediately
00:14:41amiconn...due to sector 0 protection in the ata driver
00:14:55amiconn*PANIC* Writing on sector 0
00:15:35gevaertsamiconn: maybe add skip=1 (or 2) to the dd line ?
00:15:43amiconnyeah
00:16:08*gevaerts values his ability to ruin a partition table easily
00:16:58*amiconn will try to skip the firmware partition, so he doesn't need to restore in case of (not too hard) failure
00:17:13gevaertsamiconn: or seek... I never can remember which one. Also probably best try to use matching skip and seek for read and write

00:19:41gevaertsamiconn: about the dmesg output, the differences that I see are the disk model and version (we get them from ata identify), Mode sense where I'm still not sure which pages we actually need, so it outputs none, and ANSI:, which specifies the SCSI spec version we follow (4=spc-2), Apple denies having read the spec, we don't
00:19:42JdGordon|wskip is read seek is write iirc

00:22:10amiconnHmm, writing doesn't seem to work...
00:22:45gevaertsWhat happens ?
00:22:47 Quit MethoS- ("Konversation terminated!")
00:23:16 Quit roxfan (Connection timed out)
00:23:45amiconndd finishes after ~50ms, and claims 231MB/s write speed
00:23:59amiconnEmulated disk led icon stays on
00:24:13*gevaerts wants a disk like that
00:24:22amiconnThere seems to be no further problem
00:24:41amiconnFor read accesses, the disk led icon properly follows activity
00:24:45gevaertsDoes the disk have a write cache ?
00:25:14amiconnThat would certainly not cache 13MB
00:25:21gevaertsForget that. USB speed should still slow it down
00:25:44*amiconn didn't use a repeat count either, but transferred a larger block instead

00:27:36*amiconn now tried to write an actual file
00:28:14pixelmarobin0800: the front page lists all commits, including the ones for the manual and rbutil which don't trigger a build round (no code changes for the targets). But I can't see what r16355 and 16356 should have been, even svn log doesn't tell me...
00:29:38rasherpixelma: domonoky tagging a rbutil release
00:29:39amiconnFilesystem is still okay (checked with apple diskmode and windows chkdsk)
00:30:05gevaertsThat's good news at least
00:30:40amiconnWindows mounts it fine via rockbox usb as well
00:32:08cheetah65i had a rockbox related question, whenever i play a song with album art enabled, it hangs up for a second or two. ive tried clearing settings, the whole 9 yards. any ideas?
00:32:17pixelmarasher: thanks, I just don't know what that involves but I would have expected that this also shows up somewhere in the history
00:32:21cheetah65nothing on forums
00:32:30scorche|wpixelma: it doesnt track branches
00:33:29pixelmaah hmm... vague idea now :)
00:33:33amiconn...and writing works there too.
00:33:54*amiconn is now playing an album on his mini which he copied from windows using rockbox usb mode :)
00:34:24stripwaxcheetah65 - what device do you have, which build of rockbox are you running?
00:34:46cheetah65h10 20gb, latest daily build
00:34:53scorche|wpixelma: in other words, it will only monitor "trunk" and not "branches", "songdbj", "tags" or "www"
00:34:56gevaertsHow does boost work ? Do I just call cpu_boost(true) when I need speed, and cpu_boost(false) when I don't ?
00:35:02amiconngevaerts: Does the patch use 64 byte packets, or still 16?
00:35:09gevaertsamiconn: 64
00:35:09amiconnyes
00:35:43stripwaxgevaerts - oh, what was the fix for the corruption when using >=32 byte packets?
00:35:55*stripwax missed that
00:35:58jhMikeSgevaerts: you can use trigger_cpu_boost/cancel_cpu_boost which don't accumulate counts and are thread local
00:35:58amiconncpu_boost(true) increments a counter, cpu_boost(false) decrements it. Rockbox will boost when the counter becomes > 0 and unboost if it becomes == 0
00:36:21 Quit kugel ("ChatZilla 0.9.81 [Firefox 2.0.0.11/2007112718]")
00:36:23amiconnSo multiple threads can boost/unboost as needed, and we don't loose track
00:36:32gevaertsstripwax: good question. I guess it was a caching problem, which got fixed somewhere on the way, but I don't know exactly when
00:36:44stripwax:)
00:36:46markunamiconn: do you think it's likely that this 380HN chip is the UDA1380HN? http://www.soomal.com/xdoc/miniplayer/18a.jpg
00:36:48rasherThis boosting system always appeared elegantly simple to me.
00:37:09pixelmascorche|w: yes, understood now. Thanks :)
00:38:07stripwaxcheetah65 - did this problem start occurring for you recently, or has it always happened for you? and by 'hangs up', do you mean that the audio doesn't come out more-or-less immediately −− or that it *does* start playing audio but the screen doesn't refresh until later?
00:38:11gevaertsamiconn: The problem will be to unboost exactly once if I only boost on actual I/O. If some I/O fails the usb_storage code might not get called again properly. I could add a flag somewhere to keep track of this, but that somehow seems wrong
00:38:46cheetah65stripwax: it started occuring after AA was implemented
00:38:53jhMikeSgevaerts: the trigger/cancel functions track for you
00:39:06cheetah65im going to try a fresh install right now
00:39:14stripwaxcheetah65 - are you album art bitmaps particularly large?
00:39:37 Quit ender` (" I was in the grocery store. I saw a sign that said "pet supplies." So I did. Then I went outside and saw a sign that said "")
00:39:37amiconnmarkun: For sure.
00:39:39cheetah65i have a few different sizes
00:40:02Nico_PjhMikeS: aliask said he had gotten the SPI driver to work
00:40:14stripwaxActually I meant large in filesize rather than necessarily dimension. e.g. if these are all 24 or 32-bit bmps, try reducing colour depth and saving as e.g. 256 color bitmaps
00:40:17jhMikeSgevaerts: iow calling trigger/cancel repeatedly is ok as calling the opposite function of the previous call does the change
00:40:38gevaertsjhMikeS: Thanks. That sounds easier
00:41:31***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:42:16gevaertsNow the question is if this heat problem when boosted will not come back if you copy lots of files...

00:42:24jhMikeSNico_P: I had it working awhile ago but I want to have a new driver model for interrupt wakeup style (not spin/yield). we want this processor asleep as much as possible and to let the peripherals do the work since whatever it gets done it gets done quickly and it can spend most time doing absolutely nothing
00:43:00cheetah65my h10 is refusing to connect right now, i'll come back at a later time
00:43:22jhMikeSI guess the rockbox USB stack works that way though I have a new kernel object optimized for that purpose.
00:43:41Nico_PjhMikeS: I agree completely. IIUC aliask didn't manage to make it interrupt based

00:47:55pixelmagevaerts: could it be that it is even faster than using USB with the c200 firmware (I mean including the wait for the database refresh)? ;)
00:48:04gevaertsIt would be useful to know if boost is really needed everywhere, or just on sansa.
00:48:08rasherDomonoky/bluebrother: And an option to avoid all the static linking
00:48:23 Quit homielowe (Remote closed the connection)
00:48:33amiconngevaerts: Given what transfer speed I get for reading, boosting should be useful on all PP502x targets
00:49:28gevaertspixelma: On OF I get 4.5MB/s reading or writing. That's still 5x as fast, so I guess it depends on how many files you have for the database refresh to look at.

00:50:16 Quit Nico_P (Remote closed the connection)
00:50:17jhMikeSgevaerts: I wondered about just buffering a bunch of data into the audio buffer that will be available and leaking it to disk as fast as possible. I think retailos does that.
00:50:26gevaertsamiconn: OK. I'll try adding that. I probably won't finish it today though (I don't like posting a new patch without having copied at least a few hundred megabytes with it both ways, which still takes time)
00:51:13 Quit JdGordon|w ("http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client")
00:52:40jhMikeSare transfers done in parallel with disk read/write?
00:52:42gevaertsjhMikeS: That's certainly possible, but if we want to do that cleanly we have to de deferred SCSI error reporting (as well as letting the OS know that we do write caching). That adds some more complexity again.
00:52:48pixelmagevaerts: could imagine, the data transfer seem to be quite fast in the OF but then all the waiting... btw. is the patch safe to test on WinXP now?
00:53:17gevaertsjhMikeS: no. Everything is still purely sequential
00:53:58gevaertspixelma: it should be safe. Plugging and unplugging the sd card while connected will probably not work correctly, but everything else should be fine.
00:54:00jhMikeSso no new transfer is initiated until the previous data is fully read or written?
00:54:01amiconngevaerts: Similar differences in dmesg output for H10 (OF vs. rockbox) as for mini

00:55:49amiconnH10 is a bit slower on reading (as I expected - that disk is quite crappy)
00:56:23gevaertsjhMikeS: exactly. I would like to add a buffer so we can do that in parallel, but it probably won't be worth it on high speed (if/when we get that working), and it needs some of the same complexity as a big write cache (if we want to do it properly)

01:02:12LloreanDoes it work well enough, other than being slow, to go into SVN?
01:03:20jhMikeSgevearts: have a header for each block and you can give it instructions to execute and return code field to store for each one and only involve the thread occasionally

01:04:46gevaertsLlorean: I can get it to crash more easily than the version currently in svn (v7). On the other hand I think it requires doing things a "normal" user doesn't do (run lsusb -v in a loop), and this also crashes the one in svn after a while (but it takes longer)
01:05:57gevaertsLlorean: Once the boosting code is added it will be about twice as fast as the one in svn, and I haven't heard anything about lost data recently.

01:07:28amiconngevaerts: It seems to work properly on H10 (small) as well
01:07:30gevaertsjhMikeS: I guess it would be something like that. I vote we stabilize a bit first though.
01:07:43amiconnThat's interesting as H10 is PP5020, not PP5022
01:07:45LloreanI'd just like to see a relatively stable, normal-user-usable USB mode, even if it's slow. So that we can get past the "why does it ask for drivers" stage of questions.
01:08:18amiconnUnzipped a whole build and did chkdsk afterwards
01:08:27gevaertsamiconn: great. So it has now been tested on nearly all pp502x devices (I'm not sure if we've had all types of ipod).

01:08:58 Quit ompaul (Client Quit)
01:10:01jhMikeSgevaerts: of course it should be stable first. concurrency and some read/write behind will max it out ultimately (/me always wears the concurrency hat :)

01:12:43LloreanJust stating that in my opinion, even if it's slower than disk mode, it'd be nice to have for people once it's solid enough. :)
01:15:24gevaertsjhMikeS: I agree we do need concurrency. The nice thing about this is that I can keep tweaking it and cleaning it up without some boss telling me that the budget for this project is now all used up, so as far as I am concerned it will get faster, better, and cleaner.
01:16:19amiconnOkay. Boosting makes rockbox usb almost as fast as OF on H10
01:17:02amiconnUnzipping a rockbox build from windows: OF 2:43 min, Rockbox boosted: 3:14 min, uboosted: 5:03 min
01:19:28*amiconn observed no data corruption so far
01:19:37gevaertsI think I'm going to experiment a bit tomorrow with using 20kb USB transfers (the maximum for one transfer descriptor), and 64k or 128k buffer for disk IO. That should bring a lot of simplicity back in the driver, while not being too expensive in speed terms
01:20:19*jhMikeS tells gevaerts to get to work and to stop lying around or you'll work through your lunchbreak :p

08:33:04*amiconn partially disagrees with soap ...
08:35:03LloreanLinusN: Re the sleep timer thing, I absolutely don't think it should always be persistent. It'd be frustrating for my device to turn off 15 minutes into a 4 hour car trip, and I have to either pull over or fiddle with the menus while driving to unset the sleep timer.
08:35:25LloreanBut the solution I offered was more as what I thought might be easier for him to accomplish, than for what I thought would be a suitable SVN solution to the problem
08:36:03LinusNLlorean: come on, do you really think i want the sleep timer to start *counting*?
08:36:32LloreanWell if you have to restart it counting manually, why does it need to be persistent?
08:37:16LloreanIt seems there's not a real benefit to saving it if it doesn't start counting, at least to me.
08:37:17LinusNbecause it can be handy to have a default value when you set it
08:38:27LloreanIt might save a few seconds, but if there was a way to start it counting, I think that'd be more useful. And I *think* that's what he wanted, since he said 90% of the time he needs the timer set
08:38:29LinusNthe benefit is to make it easier to start it, since you won't have to edit the counter starting from 0
08:38:57LinusNand you often use the same value, like 1 or 2 hours
08:39:17LinusNso you only have to press Select to set it
08:39:30LinusNi'd say it's much more convenient than today
08:39:37LloreanWell, I can certainly agree that saving the position isn't bad. But there should be a way to have it start counting from every boot too, I think.
08:39:50LinusNnah
08:39:52LloreanAnd I *think* but am not sure that's what he was requesting.
08:40:52*amiconn thinks that the current behaviour is perfectly fine (not remembering the sleep timer at all)
08:41:32LinusNi think saving the last entered value would be very convenient for those who use the sleep timer often
08:41:36***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
08:41:38LloreanYeah
08:41:40LinusNbut not start counting
08:41:59LloreanI don't see why you couldn't have a "start timer from boot: yes/no" option to go with it.
08:43:59LinusNi can go with that, but i'm not sure it would be equally convenient, since you may easily forget to turn it off when you don't want a countdown
08:44:14LinusNand then you will be annoyed and stop using that option
08:44:34amiconnWhat would be the actual benefit of those extra things? I'd expect that if someone uses the sleep timer, the set time will often differ from previous invocation
08:44:45LinusNamiconn: why would it?
08:44:48LloreanLinusN: For people who mainly use the sleep timer.
08:44:52GodEateron the contrary, I think it'd be always the same
08:45:09LinusNamiconn: the sleep timer is a delay, not an absolute time
08:45:15LloreanThe last dozen or so times i've used my gigabeat, it's on the dock and I've been in bed. having it default to a timer of a couple hours would've been lovely. Turn it on, auto-resume, and not worry about it.
08:45:15amiconnI know
08:46:05amiconnThe only reason for me to (rarely) use the sleep timer is when I want the thing to switch off after a certain, well defined time. And that time will be different each time I use that feature
08:46:22GodEaterI think a lot of people actually use it when going to sleep
08:46:25LloreanSee, for me, it's "I don't want the noise to last past my first REM cycle"
08:46:37amiconnI never actually used it as a _sleep_ timer though; for that case I just used end-of-album + idle poweroff
08:46:59 Quit andrew_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
08:47:45LinusNamiconn: when you use it as a sleep timer, i believe you are likely to use the same value every time

09:24:44mrkikoLlorean: so that if we save it, we start counting; else we not.
09:25:12LinusNi think just remembering the last value is enough

14:20:38gevaertsI now get 970 kB/s writes and 950 kB/s reads. I think it will be nearly impossible to do better on full speed
14:20:45LinusNimpressive
14:21:14gevaertsAt the same time, the transfer buffer got smaller
14:22:09markungevaerts: how much did you get with the OF again?
14:22:41gevaertsmarkun: 4.5 MB/s, but they cheat by using high speed.
14:23:16markunis it difficult to add high speed support?
14:23:17GodEaterheh - I like that that's considered cheating ;)
14:23:27GodEatermarkun: yes - it doesnt' work !

14:24:11GodEaterlucky you
14:24:12GodEater:)
14:27:28gevaertsI might steal some performance back to go to 2x16k buffers (current patch uses 2x32k). That costs about 2% but allows a lot more simplicity in the USB driver, which might improve stability.
14:28:16markunGodEater: I'll read the patch tracker comments

14:32:33gevaertsmarkun: high speed support will most probably require reverse engineering the OF. As far as I understand the hardware it should already work, but it still doesn't for unknown reasons.
14:37:00*amiconn wonders whether LinusN might have found something USB related in his appe OF RE endeavour
14:37:09amiconns/appe/apple/
14:37:32LinusNi have only disassembled the bootloader so far
14:37:42LinusNwhich uses full speed iirc
14:38:30amiconnIt uses high speed, even though it's fairly slow on G5
14:38:33GodEaterI didn't know the bootloader had any usb support at all
14:38:35LinusNoh
14:38:44amiconnBut ~2MB/s can't be fullspeed
14:38:47 Quit BitTorment_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
14:38:48LinusNthen i should perhaps work a little more on that
14:38:52GodEateroh - we're talking disk mode ?
14:38:56amiconnyes
14:39:24amiconnOn Mini G2, diskmode is as fast as OF - maybe that would be a better choice for disassembly
14:39:48LinusNnah, all i want to know is how to do high speed
14:40:12LinusNdoes the mini have the same pp chip?
14:41:22gevaertsI think the missing bits might well be some DMA setup issue outside of the USB controller address range.
14:41:34gevaertsSo it might be hard to find
14:41:43***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
14:42:50amiconnThe mini ROM code seems to be designed to be run both on Mini G1 and G2, i.e. PP5020 and PP5022

14:48:25LambdaCalculus37Morning, all!
14:48:59GodEatergood afternoon
14:49:32jhMikeSgood aeon
14:52:05gevaertsjhMikeS: I don't disagree. I also would like to get the USB connect screen triggering out of there, and only show it when really needed (i.e. when the host is actively accessing the disk). I guess we mainly want the thread creation gone. The rest doesn't do much (just some variable setting).
14:53:27jhMikeStrue. just using the existing usb thread itself would be better because I can name at least one plugin where connecting usb will fail to create the thread anyway (uses all the slots up)
14:56:14amiconnThe USB screen should be shown during the whole duration of the connection
14:56:30GodEaternot if you're only charging
14:57:00amiconnYes, but that's something different, as it's not an MSD connection
14:58:07gevaertsamiconn: the use case I have in mind is that you plug the player in, copy some files, choose "eject" or "safe remove hardware", after which Windows (at least) doesn't access the device at all any more. I can imagine someone wanting to play some music then while the battery is still charging.
15:00
15:00:16gevaertsamiconn: I have to test this some more, but I think we get a nice SCSI command to tell us that sort of stuff (either vSTART_STOP_UNIT or SCSI_ALLOW_MEDIUM_REMOVAL)
15:03:23preglowgevaerts: that'll work as you intend also on linux, i think
15:05:33gevaertspreglow: it should. We just have to test on some more exotic/outdated systems as well (MacOS 9, Windows98,...)
15:06:20jhMikeShow about having usb_enable just take a parameter that says "for_what_reason" USB_POWERED, etc. etc.
15:08:32amiconnusb_enable is actually ums_enable as I see it

15:09:56gevaertsCurrently it's mainly that, yes. If I get serial working at the same time as ums it will be more.
15:10:54gevaertsI think we have to differentiate between "plugged in", "usb protocol running", and "mass storage active". Only the last one requires disk lock-out.
15:10:58*jhMikeS just needs the queasy feeling to go away of seeing certain kernel calls done in interrupt context that will trash it :)
15:11:26*gevaerts only wants queue_post in interrupt context
15:13:28jhMikeSthat's about the only one intended for it (+ a few misc other queue functions)
15:15:03*gevaerts points out that he only inherited that part of the code, and that the current code already runs a lot less in interrupt context than it used to.
15:16:09gevaertsI guess most of this code was written to quickly get things working, and when that didn't happen it wasn't cleaned up.
15:16:50gevaertsNow that it actually works, it's worth spending time to make it work cleanly
15:22:10jhMikeSI'm guessing a number of FS bugs have the context issue at the root (unit responsive after plugging, etc.)
15:24:23*gevaerts volunteers to try and clean this up

18:47:36gevaertsI just changed the usb driver to only use one transfer descriptor, and not support chaining. This limits transfer sizes to 16k (actually 20k if we really want). It seems to be much more stable. I have now been running badblocks -w with a lsusb -v loop for 5 minutes without any problem. The svn version stops bulk transfers after a few seconds of this, and usully recovers after a bus reset. Recent patches usually don't recover. This one do
18:47:50gevaerts...doesn't even stop.

18:49:31gevaertsThat means the version I am running now is probably the most stable one yet. The "cost" is bein limited to 16k transfers, which means a 2% slowdown.

19:56:04amiconngevaerts: Btw, those hex[] arrays are actually const, so they should be declared const. That'll save some init code gcc otherwise adds
19:56:55amiconnAnd I found the culprit - struct usb_string_iSerial is unaligned. Is there a reason why all those structs are declared packed?
19:58:30gevaertsamiconn: yes. They go over the wire as-is, so if they are not packed it won't work. Th other alternative would be to copy them all to a temporary buffer.
19:59:20preglowalmost preferable, with arm...
19:59:34gevaertsamiconn: usb_string_iSerial should probably also be cache aligned to work properly.

20:01:10gevaertspreglow: only seven of the fields actually ever need to be changed, and three of those are chars. Otherwise I would agree
20:01:23amiconnOkay, understood. However, declaring them packed also makes them unaligned (another gcc glitch? Afaiu they shouldn't be unaligned unless also explicitly declared unaligned)

20:01:51*petur is amazed by the default kick message :)
20:02:29amiconnWould it work to declare alignment in usb_ch9.h together with the 'packed' attribute?
20:02:51preglowamiconn: of the entire struct or members? packed structs should definitely break member alignment if necessary
20:02:53amiconnThen all incarnations would be sutably aligned in memory...
20:03:05amiconnThe entire struct is obviously unaligned
20:03:19amiconnHave a look at e.g. struct usb_string_descriptor
20:04:05amiconnIt consists of 2 8-bit-members, then an array of 16 bit elements. So the whole struct needs to be 16 bit aligned in memory in order to not crash arm
20:04:26 Part at0m|c ("Clear Channel Event")
20:04:32amiconnBut by default it isn't.
20:06:04preglowweird, i wouldn't expect packedness to affect alignment of the entire thing at all...
20:07:29gevaertsamiconn: struct usb_string_iSerial is the only struct usb_string_descriptor that needs to be modified, and it isn't part of a bigger struct. The config_data struct needs to be packed, but we could assemble it by hand in a buffer, or declare four nearly-identical copies of it.
20:08:12amiconnThis is just by chance
20:08:47amiconnAny in-ram struct usb_string_decsriptor has a 50% chance to be misaligned to access its 16 bit members
20:09:58gevaertsamiconn: true, but they are (or should be) const, so the gcc initialisation code needs to write them. After that the rockbox code treats them as an opaque buffer to send over the wire if the host asks for them
20:10:06amiconnImho we have 3 options. (1) Explicitly align every such struct (as you did for sansa, but not for ipod). (2) declare alignment along with packedness in usb_ch9.h
20:10:25preglowwhich sounds good
20:10:38preglowthe latter should be the best, if gcc has it work...
20:10:40amiconn(3) use 'unaligned' pointers to access the 16 bit members
20:10:58amiconnThis last option causes bigger and slower code though
20:11:23 Join spiorf [0] (n=spiorf@79.20.211.254)
20:11:46gevaertsThese members are only accessed very rarely, and only in very few places, so that shouldn't be a big problem.

20:18:26amiconnThen you can remove the explicit attribute for usb_string_iSerial on sansa in usb_core.c
20:19:40amiconnIs there a reason why this is declared different for sansa than for the rest?
20:20:09gevaertsamiconn: I probably forgot to change both after fixing it for sansa.
20:20:32amiconnI mean in general, not just the attribute
20:23:40gevaertsOh ok. The OF for sansa and ipod have different length serial number strings, and we started out trying to get exactly the same. I guess we could just take the largest one and leave the extra zeroes, since we decided to not follow the OF exactly here.
20:24:12amiconnHmm, ok
20:24:25amiconnI also notice that there is no serial number (yet) for H10
20:24:45amiconnIt probably needs figuring out where the OF gets this number from?
20:25:37gevaertsYes.
20:25:55*amiconn also wonders whether the code should be checked for endian issues
20:26:16amiconnRight now it's only used on little endian targets, but that might change
20:26:58gevaertsActually it doesn't really work properly on c200 either (i.e. I don't get the same as the OF). For some reason e200 and c200 don't get their serial from the same place
20:30:21gevaertsI think those same usb descriptors will be the hardest to get endian-clean. SCSI should be mostly there (SCSI is big endian...), except for one or two magic numbers.

21:05:09amiconnWe'd also need to find out how to shut down various other components (lcd, audio codec...), and put the ram into low-power self refresh mode

21:06:00amiconnindigo_: Using crossdev isn't recommended.

21:06:16indigo_scorche|sh: ok, sorry
21:06:53bluebrotherindigo_: what version of arm-elf-gcc do you have?
21:07:03indigo_amiconn: but on http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CrossCompiler#Gentoo_Gentoo_Crossdev it's recommended for gentoo users
21:07:12indigo_3.4.6
21:07:23n1sindigo_: you should probably try using our rocboxdev.sh script to build your crosscompiler
21:07:26bluebrotherthat's too old.
21:07:27indigo_as 4.* seems not to work properly atm
21:07:43n1s4.0.3 is recomended for arm
21:07:44bluebrotheras you also see on that page 4.0 is _required_ for arm targets.
21:07:47indigo_as sayd somewhere in the wiki
21:08:11Lloreanindigo_: 3.4.6 is for Coldfire targets, 4.0.3 is for ARM
21:09:02*amiconn seems to remember that people using crossdev had all sorts of problems
21:09:08amiconnAm I remembering wrong?

21:13:01Lloreanindigo_: The problem is, "Coldfire" is for the iRiver H100 and H300, and the iAudio X5 and M5. Not any other players. It's an entirely different compiler, which you seem to have confused.

21:29:19bluebrotherno.
21:29:37bluebrotherbut I guess libusb is common enough to assume it present.
21:29:51rasherbluebrother: except it might be 64-bit
21:30:01rasherAlso, any chance of getting an install target in the makefile? And an option to avoid the static linking
21:30:44bluebrotherrasher: dang, good point.
21:31:06rasheramiconn ran into that yesterday
21:31:10bluebrotherrbutil will only get linked statically if you use -config static when running qmake

21:32:03 Quit Domonoky (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
21:32:18bluebrotherI can look into adding an install target. Not sure what exactly is needed though (as the makefile is generated by qmake)
21:32:33*bluebrother puts a note on the todo-list
21:33:04rasherI guess "manually" copying isn't much of a problem (I was having a go at debian packaging last night)
21:33:36bluebrotheryep. Of course it would be nice to use the usual "make install"
21:33:49LloreanIs it usual that RButil downloads Rockbox much more slowly than downloading it yourself, or am I just unlucky?
21:35:15bluebrotherI haven't done speed tests, but for the older versions (when I had a good internet connection, not this stupid thing I use right now) I hadn't noticed a huge difference.
21:35:53LloreanI've been downloading rockbox.zip for several minutes now, and I'm on a fairly fast connection here. I don't remember it taking this long in the past, but then, usually I just compile my own builds, so it's been a while
21:37:24preglowi don't notice much of a difference
21:37:34LloreanOkay
21:43:35LloreanWhat needs to be true for rbutil to create a voice for me?

21:55:53amiconnIsn't Anna a German voice?

22:31:07JdGordon|winteresting logic
22:31:22preglowbut valid
22:31:22preglowheh
22:31:40gevaertsI can't figure out how to make Windows handle this removable slot correctly. It tries reading a partition table, and gets an error back. This is new in the latest patch (it used to just send back random garbage).
22:32:12LloreanDomonoky_: Yes, I tried it. Windows Vista, nothing special installed. It recognized the one voice I seem to have, but created a 5k file. Talk clip generation doesn't seem to output wavs (I don't seem them anywhere), or at the very least, it errors when trying to encode the wavs.
22:32:13n1shamdiya: looks correct to me, maybe you should try with a sim using the −−debugwps switch
22:32:23pixelmahamdiya: yes, I read that but never used it myself so all I can say I'd probably try the same
22:32:26gevaertsI can work around this by only letting the host know about the slot if there is a card present, and find a real solution later. Any thoughts on that ?
22:32:42hamdiyathe −−debugwps switch
22:32:43hamdiya:D
22:32:45hamdiyanoob here

22:33:08JdGordon|wgevaerts: you could do what my phone does and use a folder for the sd card instead of allowing it to be a seperate drive?
22:33:22hamdiyaimagine making a wps withouth one :O
22:33:24Lloreangevaerts: I agree with JdGordon|w
22:33:33JdGordon|wnot really nice though
22:33:34LloreanSince we present the SD card as a folder in Rockbox, why don't we do that too?
22:33:41gevaertsJdGordon|w: no. UMS exports block devices, not filesystems.
22:33:56LloreanBasically, present windows with the exact same file tree as we present the user. (Or at least, similar, since the folder name may be invalid)
22:34:03n1shamdiya: start it with −−debugwps from a command line
22:34:04LloreanAh, nevermind then. =/
22:34:27Domonoky_Llorean: rbutil puts those temporary files in the temp folder (for voice generation)
22:34:52LloreanDomonoky_: Ah, well when doing .talk generation, the path it mentioned in the error was on the device, when looking for the .wav
22:34:58hamdiyak, lemm try
22:35:01Domonoky_and it deletes it again... for talk generation you can tell it, to keep the wav files..
22:35:13LloreanWhere is the temp folder?
22:35:27n1shamdiya: if you are using a lot of images it might be failing because the buffer is full
22:35:36Domonoky_for talk generation the wav files will be on the device... this is different from voice..
22:35:54LloreanDomonoky_: I tried both talk and vioce.
22:35:57JdGordon|wgevaerts: in that case.. yeah, just ignore the slot if no card is present.. or maybe even ignore the slot completly for the time being
22:36:04preglowJdGordon|w: i bet your phone doesn't use ums
22:36:09LloreanDomonoky_: With talk, the .wav never showed up, and it errored when it tried to encode the .wav that wasn't present.

23:04:29Domonoky_we could either loop over all voices and comparing the description while selecting the voice, (ie not using the selectstring for voice selection) or change the listvoices code, to give the real voice names..
23:04:55Domonoky_(i dont know how todo the second..) :-)
23:07:27amiconnShould be rather simple
23:07:40amiconnBtw, I'm currently fiddling with sapi_voice.vbs
23:07:50amiconnFound a sapi4 bug already

23:10:45amiconnToo slow... I just committed a fix :\
23:14:09Soap_what is the best way to remove the Rockbox dev environment? I don't need arm-elf, sh-elf, and m68k-elf on this tiny machine anymore.

23:15:49gevaertsI am testing if my patch still gives a working system if USE_ROCKBOX_USB is not defined, and I get an interesting result : when I plug in my c250, the backlight immediately turns off and all blue leds turn on, so it looks exactly like manufacturer mode. After this, I have to power it off the hard way. Any hints ?
23:16:33preglowamiconn: i assume there are no better ways to load an address on coldfire than use move.l?
23:16:58amiconnDepends on whether the address is relative to something
23:17:22amiconnSometimes you can use pc relative lea.l
23:17:44*gevaerts thanks petur and gives him a beer
23:18:36preglowamiconn: is there a way to construct a lea.l sequence from a label?
23:19:06pixelmagevaerts: if you hold the sansa close to a lamp in this case, do you see the Rockbox USB screen? If it's that then it's /probably/ the usual hang when it's trying to reboot into OF that's there in some builds...
23:20:41pixelmae.g. I have that just now with my self-compiled build without the USB patch (built on r16350)
23:23:30gevaertspixelma: it is indeed showing the USB screen.

23:42:52gevaertsI uploaded ums_v23. I think it is a clear improvement on current svn, so I'd like to commit it. It shouldn't influence anything else. Any thoughts ?
23:43:05*gevaerts would like his first commit not to have to be reverted immediately
23:43:25peturhehe but maybe you can earn some points ;)
23:43:37amiconnIs it enabled or disabled by default?
23:43:50gevaertsamiconn: still disabled.
23:43:52amiconnI noticed that the code spits several warnings when enabled
23:44:27gevaertsI'll check

23:47:12*petur is seriously stuck in this CF business... two changes that contradict the datasheet (powermanagement and soft reset)
23:48:49preglowgevaerts: if it's an improvement and doesn't affect anything else, i'd say go ahead
23:48:59preglowgevaerts: just make sure to not commit that rockboxdev.sh change that is in your patch :)
23:49:02gevaertsamiconn: I fixed the warnings here.
23:49:27preglowgevaerts: no biggie if there are warnings anyway, as long as you're around after the first build to check out if it went ok
23:49:57gevaertspreglow: I noticed that as well. I try to always run diffstat on it first, but I forgot this time...
