00:03:14JdGordonis the lang order in not english .langs important?
00:03:21amiconnIt doesn't always fail. All Player builds in the build table except 2 were built on his box
00:03:48 Join dany_21a [0] (n=dan@84-119-27-113.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at)
00:04:23BagderI'll disable sh builds there for now
00:04:30planetbeingCould anyone refer me to someone who has familiarity with Rockbox's NAND flash driver? (ata_flash.c). I was wondering about its compatibility with Samsung's FTL systems like Whimory, etc.
00:04:59*mcuelenaere likes to know that too
00:06:05 Quit bmbl ("Woah!")
00:06:21planetbeingI'm reverse engineering some of iPhone's firmware, with an eye on porting Linux to it. I'm now able to read and write raw NAND data, but I'm wondering if there's any prior work on the Whimory FTL.
00:06:55gevaertsI'd be surprised if you could use ata_flash.c for help with that
00:07:19amiconnata_flash.c is used by the (stalled) iFP port only.
00:07:33planetbeingI see.
00:07:36mcuelenaereplanetbeing: AFAIK there are only 2 (?) FTL in Rockbox now
00:07:41gevaertsIt's written for ifp7xx, which as far as I know uses a pnx101 chip, and it doesn't do writing yet so I assume the mapping isn't complete yet
00:07:52amiconnI think the only one who really knows how it works would be tomal. I've not seen him around for a long time :\
00:07:52mcuelenaereata_flash.c and the TCC one
00:08:05planetbeingAh. I've only started looking at it. Googling for "Whimory" led me to Rockbox (which is why I am here).
00:08:31n1samiconn: making the midi plugin a codec would not enable any more optimizations but would make for a nicer user experience all over
00:09:29rasherJdGordon: it's not important, no
00:09:44*amiconn is confused by the r19022 APE performance figures on coldfire and the beast
00:10:01rasherJdGordon: some translators like to keep English order to help them compare, but the code doesn't care
00:10:11n1sLambdaCalculus37: I would be happy to take your c200 to try making midi work better on it but it would have to be with the standard disclaimer of not guaranteeing any worthwhile results
00:10:13funmanlcd_init() calls scroll_init() calls create_thread(), what is needed for threads to run ?
00:10:52n1slcd scrolling runs in a separate thread
00:10:55planetbeingSome of the exact strings that are here (http://130.89.160.166/rockbox/e10strings.txt) are in the iPhone firmware, which is why I was curious.
00:11:07JdGordonrasher: ok
00:11:15funmann1s: i didn't care about threads in the sansav2 bootloader (no thread_init or whatever)
00:11:52funmani suppose some initialisation is needed
00:11:52mcuelenaereplanetbeing: that's probably due too they use the same Samsung SDK
00:12:01n1sfunman: i misread your question :/
00:12:03mcuelenaeredue too the fact that*
00:12:16 Quit tvelocity ("Αποχώρησε")
00:12:32planetbeingYes.
00:12:40*funman hands n1s a funman-decoder
00:12:57funmanother bootloaders call kernel_init()
00:13:24funmanI suppose I'll have to do some work to use this function
00:13:35planetbeingI'm not sure whether to start reverse engineering anything above the LLD level.
00:13:49planetbeingBecause reversing all of Samsung's SDK would not really be that fun.
00:13:54planetbeingAnd perhaps legally problematic.
00:14:55Bagderreverse engineering really isn't that problematic in most areas
00:15:34funmanI used this diff http://paste.ubuntu.com/68108/ to understand where the problem came from, do you think something cleaner could be useful in the UIE() ? (i believe undefined instruction exception)
00:16:00planetbeingRight, except I think they're trying to sell the exact thing that I would publish equivalent source code to, so.

00:17:21planetbeingThough it would really be nice, or else any sort of dual-booting between iPhone OS and Linux would be out. Is there any interest in the Rockbox community that this be done? Is there anyone willing to work on this together?
00:17:24Bagderplanetbeing: still you're entitled to do so
00:17:46Bagderplanetbeing: rockbox is an OS of its own
00:17:47 Quit dany_21a_ (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:17:58Bagderwe don't run linux on devices, we run rockbox on tem
00:18:01Bagderthem
00:18:04planetbeingI understand that.
00:18:13funmanin fact i was hoping to not need threads in the bootloader
00:18:23planetbeingBut if you wanted to read/write to Samsung FTLs, this would still be useful as a piece.
00:18:26Bagderbut there might be someone interested in running rockbox on an iphone or ipod touch

00:20:29amiconnfunman: UIE is short for "unexpected interrupt or exception"
00:20:42soapHonestly, ever since I gave the space to redbreva, I haven't really though twice about it. I do agree the consequences of its existence are probably undesirable, but I never discussed the removal of it with anyone, so I didn't [remove it].

08:04:23OwnerI have a question about Rockbox and I figured you guys could help me out
08:04:56B4gderask away
08:05:14OwnerI have a Sandisk and I can navigate and play songs from my MicroSD and from my internal memory
08:05:32Owneryet once I figured out how to combine the 2 so I could play songs from both in a playlist...
08:05:34Ownerhow do I do that
08:06:36B4gderI believe the microsd appears as a "fake" dir in the root dir, as shown by the dir browser
08:06:42massiveHare you creating the playlist on the sansa, or on your PC?
08:06:58OwnerI did it through my PC with window media player
08:07:33massiveHcreate it on the player and it will work fine, I don't know how it saves the SD location on the playlist
08:07:52massiveHbut it appears rockbox's handling of the SD location and your media player's is differnet
08:08:20Ownerwell I combined the playlists once so I could listen to all of my music on shuffle mode once
08:08:28Ownerso I know it's possible
08:08:45Ownerbut as of now I can either chose to shuffle through all my internal memory of 300 songs
08:08:59Owneror go shuffle through my SD of like 1000
08:09:13massiveHyou can select the playlist and hit "insert" and it will combine them
08:09:18massiveHthen you could save that list out...

08:12:56Ownerturn on -> database -> all tracks -> play
08:13:03Ownerthat gives me the shuffle for my internal memory
08:13:09Ownerand then for my micro sd
08:13:25*massiveH does not use database mode, and does not know how playlist handling differs from file tree mode
08:13:33Ownerturn on -> files -> micro sd -chose song
08:13:43Ownerthen I shuffle through all my songs on micro sd
08:13:55Ownerany way to shuffle through both at once?
08:14:40Tuplanollaif the songs are in the database they will be in the whole shuffle list
08:15:09Ownerbut the only songs in the database are the ones in the internal memory
08:15:14Tuplanollaput the card in, then initialize the database
08:15:18Ownerhow do I put my micro sd songs in the database

20:22:28planetbeingHah!
20:22:30planetbeingI just PM'ed you. =P
20:22:39planetbeingOn that meizume forum.
20:22:48planetbeingI'm working on the same stuff for the iPhone.
20:22:58planetbeingWe have pretty much those same Whimory strings.
20:23:07denes_gevaerts: yes, I don't think samsung will divulge the specifics of the alorithm. but let us not underestimate the chinese support :)
20:23:29planetbeingI'm making a raw dump of iPhone NAND as we speak, actually.
20:23:57planetbeingI only reversed the LLD, as they call it, in Samsung nonmenclature, but that's sufficient to give me raw reads.
20:24:26denes_planetbeing: raw reads work on the meizu also
20:24:39planetbeingCool.
20:24:51planetbeingI was thinking we could work together on reversing it.
20:24:57denes_planetbeing: I am slowly reverse engineereing the VFL_Init, FTL_Init functions - these are done, just a few mallocs
20:24:59planetbeingSince it's so big.
20:25:04planetbeingReally?
20:25:05planetbeingWow.
20:25:16denes_planetbeing: then I have reverse engineered the vfl_open hopefully
20:25:32planetbeingAny idea how they're storing the BBT yet?
20:25:34denes_planetbeing: now it's the ftl_open's turn - that's more difficult
20:25:42denes_planetbeing: what is "bbt"?
20:25:47planetbeingBad Block Table.
20:25:52planetbeingI've got a VFL_ReadBBT function.
20:26:06denes_planetbeing: cool, I don't have such a thing :|
20:26:20planetbeingHmm.
20:26:25planetbeingLet me find where it's called.
20:26:27denes_planetbeing: it's not entirely sure, that the iphone and this meizu uses the exact same algorithm
20:26:42planetbeingThat's true.
20:26:42denes_planetbeing: just my rough guess, from thesame name (whimory)
20:27:12planetbeingiPhone has fewer strings in general than a strings dump that I've seen.
20:27:53denes_planetbeing: so to rev.eng. FTL_open i will have to first reverse engineer vfl_read, and the raw nand reader (I only looked at some tricks init, not the whole stuff, i.e. what parameter does execlty what, etc.)
20:27:56planetbeingI've tried reading whatever public docs Samsung has on this stuff; they're likely to use close to the same thing for everything.
20:28:27planetbeingI thought you already had the raw NAND reader?
20:28:34denes_planetbeing: after FTL_open (and vfl:read) only ftl_read is left, and it should be done - read only that is of course
20:28:48planetbeingHah, yeah.
20:28:50denes_planetbeing: i have the raw nand reader, but only a small part is from reverse engineereing
20:28:56planetbeingAh.
20:29:08planetbeingAll of mine is from reverse engineering, heh.
20:29:30planetbeingMine works by init'ing the "FIL", which boils down to a table of function pointers.
20:29:41planetbeingThen later functions, like VFL_Read, calls functions from that function table.
20:29:48denes_planetbeing: some things are not clear, like the meizu seems to claim there are 4 banks, when there is only two chips in the package - so that's why I need the specifics from the their raw nand reader
20:30:02denes_planetbeing: yes, exactly
20:30:30denes_planetbeing: so have you found the nand init part, when it calculates the number of blocks, banks, user sectors, etc. ?
20:30:42planetbeingYeah.
20:30:50planetbeingI've reversed that.
20:30:56planetbeingIt just looks them up from a table.
20:30:59planetbeingIt reads a NAND ID.

20:32:10planetbeingAnd it just counts up the good matches.

21:18:07denes_everybody is using ida for disassembly. i am using objdump :) maybe ida is more powerful...
21:18:27amiconnThe current solution in udiv32_armv4.S (copied from libgcc code; lines 65..83) needs 13 instructions (13 cycles)

21:19:22amiconnUsing the ffs() code instead only needs 5 instructions (7 cycles) and a lookup table
21:19:55planetbeingdenes_: I used to use objdump too (well, otool actually). Once you're used to IDA, it makes you a lot more efficient.
21:20:09amiconnThis is possible here because it's known that only a single bit is set. so clz(val) = 31 - ffs(val)

21:51:57bertrikkugel, nice
21:52:29bertrikkugel, maybe I can whip up something this weekend to read the mystery i2c bus on the fuze
21:53:03bertrikI couldn't really find much references to the i2c code, maybe it's used for the buttons, or maybe for the radio
21:53:39saratogan1s: regarding midi optimization on armv4, you get one cycle of pipeline stall for each 8 bits in the multiplier
21:54:01saratogaif you can prescale some of your values, you can often save CPU time
21:54:54amiconnThis only applies to arm < v6 afaik
21:55:30saratogamost of the ARMv5 chips have single cycle muls too, though maybe not all
21:55:56amiconn(which most of our arm targets are though, and the one that is v6 doesn't suffer from performance problems)
21:57:10amiconnMultiply instructions on arm1136 are single cycle, but only with proper pipelining (latency is several cycles)
21:57:35amiconnProper pipelining seems to be rather important on armv6
21:57:56*amiconn already knows that kind of pipeline interlocks from the SH1

21:59:48bertrikkugel, looking at the fuze disassembly on abi it looks like there are a lot of traces going to the front part of the player (with the buttons, leds, etc.). If it were done over i2c, I would expect a lot less traces.
22:00
22:00:05amiconnEven ldmia and stmia with multiple registers are single cycle, if the registers aren't (re)used too early. The loads and stores then effectively happen in the background

22:07:14funmanbertrik: kugel, fdinel told me he found the code for the buttons in the fuze but it's rather complex. appears to use interrupts, just like the e200v1
22:09:06bertrikok thanks, IIRC I noticed some GPIOs set up for interrupt too
22:09:53bertrikso that increases the chance for the GPIO i2c bus to be there to control the fm chip
22:10:24bertrikor it could be more stray driver code ...
22:11:40bertrikgetting the radio to work could be a quick hack to get "first sound" on a sansa v2 :)
22:12:08denes_planetbeing: interesting. than it's different from the meizu...
22:13:26saratogaamiconn: looking at the arm9tdmi datasheet, the load time is a single cycle per word, both for single and multiple loads
22:13:39saratogais there any advantage to doing ldm aside from reduced code size?
22:14:47amiconnNo. The reduced code size can help indirectly though (better cache usage)
22:15:36planetbeingdenes_: It also seems to use a different ECC format for those pages.
22:16:40amiconnAnd of course another advantage is to not have different code than for arm7tdmi (where ldm is n+2 cycles while ldr needs 3 cycles, hence loading n words individually would need 3*n cycles), and arm11 (where ldm is one single cycle vs. n cycles for individual loads)
22:17:11denes_planetbeing: I haven't looked at the ECC myself
22:17:28denes_planetbeing: I see you have coded that too. nice work btw.

22:53:47saratogaare function arguements in specific registers or on the stack?
22:54:04amiconnDepends on the architecture and on the number of arguments
22:54:53amiconnBoth ARM and SH1 use regparms for functions with <= 4 arguments (ARM uses r0..r3 and SH1 uses r4..r7)
22:55:32amiconnColdfire always uses the stack, as does SH1 for functions with > 4 arguments (or variadic functions)
22:55:58saratogaah so "str r0, [r13, #12] " is putting the first function argument onto the stack?
22:56:31amiconnI'm not sure whether ARM uses only the stack for > 4 arguments, or whether it passes the first 4 in registers as well
22:56:56funmanFrom what I read in the SansaV2 OF, the first 4 arguments are always in r0-r3
22:57:08amiconn#12 should be the 4th argument

22:59:21amiconnSH1 puts everything on the stack if there are > 4 arguments. That means it's very helpful to try and keep the argument count <= 4 (smaller code)
