#rockbox log for 2010-02-12

00:01:41stripwaxwhat's the best way to svn sync a branch with trunk?
00:01:41checkeranyone here on ubuntu?
00:02:10JdGordon_pixelma: do you think the new tags all make sense? I'm happy to add/remove/change as needed, and we shold get them mostly good before commit
00:02:17kugelpamaury: sounds good
00:02:21stripwaxI'm thinking of just copying all the latest files from trunk over the top of the (stale) files in my branch and doing a massive svn commit. But, that won't handle any stale files in my branch that have since been deleted from trunk right?
00:02:49kugelpamaury: pictureflow has a similar problem, it uses fill_tags() but not find_index()
00:03:12JdGordon_has anyone asked ohloh to fix up their enlistment? B4gder ?
00:03:12kugelwould be nice if you could tell how much faster find_index() compared to get_metadata() is
00:03:21pamaurykugel: so it doesn't work when db is not in ram ?
00:03:37kugelpf calls get_metadata() if fill_tags fails
00:03:54pamauryok
00:04:37stripwaxchecker - is your WPS issue something to do with ubuntu? (I don't see the connection myself)
00:04:38kugelalthough find_index() also uses ramcache when it's enabled. if you need the index only I'd just use that in the first place
00:05:29checkeri added a file in to a .zip using the ubuntu archive manager, then unpacked the .zip onto my gigabeat, now i have problems :P
00:05:35stripwaxchecker - if your rockbox basically works fine, but shows 'BM6' on the screen, then maybe your wps contains just the text "BM6" perhaps? If on the other hand your rockbox is crashing, you probably need to tell us more info...

00:05:56stripwaxchecker - unfortunately this is #rockbox not #ubuntu-archive-manager-bugs .. :(
00:05:59pixelmaJdGordon_: haven't looked into detail. I first thought it was a bit much maybe they are all needed (thought I remembered a discussion about reusing artist etc. tags but at the same time I remember being unable to decide if e.g. a station name equals artist or album)

00:06:26pixelmais there a way to get the fmr name (without the full path)?
00:06:29stripwaxchecker - why didn't you just copy the file to your gigabeat? (why add it to the zip and then unpack the .zip onto your gigabeat?)
00:06:47stripwaxyou could just restore the original zip file, and then just copy your updated file over, no?
00:06:59checkerbecause luckily, i tested the .zip before uploading it to the theme site
00:07:16stripwaxah, theme zip. ok. (now we're getting somewhere :-)
00:07:22JdGordon_pixelma: the fmr is the presets file yeah? you want to display it on the skin or use it somewhere else?
00:07:24checkerwps...
00:08:04pixelmaJdGordon_: display it in the skin
00:08:22stripwaxchecker - so, um - you made a bad theme zip and now it doesn't work. how do we help?
00:08:36checker... you dont

00:09:01mtstripwax: sweet mdct ;)
00:09:07stripwaxmt - thanks! :)
00:09:16checkerwhat would a .zip to a file that would cause it to bug
00:09:25stripwaxmt - any ideas on how to sync the whole branch to trunk?
00:10:11CIA-88New commit by tomers (r24611): fft plugin: add touchscreen key-mapping and enable plugin for touchscreen targets
00:10:43stripwaxchecker - sorry, I can't understand the question... (was it missing a verb?)

00:10:55 Quit shaggy-h ()
00:11:03stripwaxah
00:11:03JdGordon_pixelma: I'll add it, it shuold be easy enough to get to
00:11:07mtstripwax: We're going to use this mdct from now onwards, right ? (i.e, the old one is going to be dropped now?)
00:11:24stripwaxchecker - well, you could always unzip it onto your ubuntu machine and see if the contents match what you thought they would be?
00:11:57stripwaxmt - there's at least one more thing to do - get rid of the awful fft initialisation (revtab)
00:12:27stripwaxchecker - e.g. using diff, etc.
00:12:46 Quit komputes (Quit: I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.)
00:13:31FlynDicemt: ping
00:13:39stripwaxor just rebuild the zip file from scratch and start again (making sure that the files you zip up are correct to begin with). I don't think there's inherently something bad about a .zip file that could corrupt a file and/or make rockbox freak out with a weird wps, unless the files in the zip are just faulty. (But I can't speak for ubuntu archive manager)
00:14:01kugeltomers: ping
00:14:10JdGordon_reply from ohloh staff was damn quick, we shuold be getting updated again
00:14:11checkerfile wasnt, the zipper somehow messed up the encoding on it, fixed now
00:14:27checkerencoding on the .wps file
00:14:40pixelmaJdGordon_: ugh sorry, I misspelled the actual file name of the fms. It loads now...
00:15:08checkerso BM6 means the encoding is incorrect on the .wps :P
00:15:17pixelmaJdGordon_: on the M5
00:15:27JdGordon_but ondio is totally blank?
00:15:37 Quit checker (Quit: CGI:IRC)
00:15:53stripwaxchecker - "BM6" isn't an error message. It probably means that the first printable characters in the wps are B, M, and 6.

00:16:39*stripwax could be wrong, but usually rockbox error messages have words in them, and has never seen a wps error like that. JdGordon can probably confirm .. ?
00:17:10JdGordon_yea, BM6 is a error in the wps text
00:17:15JdGordon_or mistake
00:17:57mtFlynDice: pong
00:18:17FlynDicemt: did you see my forum reply?
00:18:23stripwaxJdGordon - as in, rockbox shows "BM6" if your wps is garbaged? are there any other "BM" error messages?
00:18:28*stripwax learns something new
00:18:40 Quit anewuser (Quit: Another edition of chiptune gig WinterChip5! :O http://xrl.us/WinterChipV =ooo)
00:18:54JdGordon_no, the wps text has an error which doesnt break the parser but displays that as text
00:19:03pixelmaJdGordon_: yes, Ondio shows a blank screen (there was no file name error on that one, I just checked again) and it also showed a blank screen with the default while no fms was set
00:19:06mtstripwax: What's the problem with syncing ? (I'm thinking of just copying what we did and apply the changes by hand then commit, if so, I can do that tomorrow)
00:19:13mtFlynDice: I'll check
00:19:50stripwaxmt - syncing FROM trunk TO branch. how do we make branch less-stale
00:20:00tomerskugel: pong
00:20:10JdGordon_pixelma: ok, thats wierd, I cant tihnk why nothing shows, except if the skin load is inside a !HWCODEC block, which would be bloody stupid :p
00:20:16 Quit kramer3d (Quit: Leaving)
00:20:20stripwaxmt - including deleting files from branch that are no longer in trunk
00:20:52stripwaxJdGordon - as in the .wps file probably has some garbage in it including a string that looks like BM6 - right?
00:20:59JdGordon_yes
00:21:08stripwaxJdGordon - phew, cool.
00:21:10pixelmaJdGordon_: uhm, no comment :P

00:30:25pixelmadon't know, haven't used it so far. How do I do that?
00:30:58JdGordon_ok, new plan
00:31:43JdGordon_ok.. build checkwps (its one of the configure options for the target)
00:31:57JdGordon_then just ./checkwps.ondio filename.fms
00:32:04JdGordon_the first past is correct, not the second
00:32:21pixelmacan you have %pm in a conditional?
00:32:32pixelmaI thought it had to be on its own line
00:32:58kugelwhy are the colons in the language strings?
00:34:10pixelmayou could still get the same effect with conditional viewports (the %pm/prerecord info)
00:34:19kugelthat's nasty!
00:34:29kugel(the colon thing I mean)
00:35:27pixelmayeah, unnecessary
00:35:48pixelmaand might hurt if you want to use it in a different way
00:36:02pixelma(the colons)

00:36:22JdGordon_iirc anyway
00:36:59JdGordon_pixelma: oh, it doesnt like %pm? ok hmm
00:37:16JdGordon_and we cant use conditional viewports here because it should work inside the ui viewport
00:37:19JdGordon_wherever that is
00:37:25pixelmahaven't checked but that's what I always thought
00:37:32kugelfor RTL? really?

00:48:44stripwaxhrm, svn merge sounds easy but I imagine it would cause a few problems here. I'll just wait until branch mdct is "finished" and port it back into trunk
00:49:16kugelyou need to merge in trunk anyway
00:49:19stripwaxmt - one thing, then, to do is to move the remaining codecs to using the newmdct if they're currently using the old tremor mdct. Would you have time to look at that
00:49:32kugelotherwise you mess up trunk
00:49:39stripwaxkugel - true, or could make the (small handful of) changes manually no?
00:49:57kugelsure, but that means losing versioning
00:50:08kugelI can't imagine which problem svn merge would cause
00:50:10stripwaxah. true
00:51:07stripwaxkugel - well, it seems like svn doesn't track the merges, and that you have to manually tell it which revisions to merge diffs from. which sounds like a bit of a manual headache if a) the merge goes wrong or b) I specify the wrong revisions
00:51:16pixelmabuilding checkwps fails in firmware/export/debug.h for me. Since the patch doesn't seem to touch this file, my guess is "maybe cygwin?"
00:51:26stripwaxI'm not a hardcore svn user, so if it's easy I'll happily let someone else do it :)
00:51:28mtstripwax: Sure. will look at that tomorrow.
00:51:30kugeldepends on the version. newer svn tracks merges
00:51:37stripwaxoh, neat-o
00:51:41kugelnewer = >1.5 I think
00:51:42stripwaxmt - cool!
00:52:25kugelit's possible that you need to specifiy the revision for the first merge, but I doubt you need it after then
00:52:28stripwaxkugel - so I could just "svn merge trunk branches/mdctexp" with no other args and it would know what it is supposed to merge with what?
00:52:42***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:53:01kugelyou could just try. you do the merge locally so nothing really bad can happen anyway

02:00:21UnhelpfulJdGordon: shoot :D
02:00:45JdGordonis there anything in playback which would cause things to break if you try getting an AA in the fm screen, so audio is stopped?
02:00:54JdGordonit looks like it shouldnt, but its apparently causing problems

02:02:13JdGordonbah, ok
02:04:32Unhelpfulbut, no, i can't imagine why it ought to break, surely this is similar to wps while playing a track with no AA?
02:05:02Unhelpfuli guess the first question is, "how does it know what the buffer handle for the AA is?"

02:19:58kugelstrangely the update function didn't work
02:28:29perfectdrugkugel: what is the cross icon for it is always on and looking at your wps it is for crossfade, but you just declare 4 modes and not 5
02:29:32Unhelpfulamiconn: if we made the audio buffer a buflib (with some extensions), and we wanted to use buflib for a more flexible glyph cache, i imagine that would have its own buffer and allocator?
02:31:29Unhelpfulmy idea regarding dynamic plugin buffer was that the plugin buffer would still have a fixed start or end address, and would be allocated by moving one end or the other of the main buffer
02:31:31kugelperfectdrug: is there a new mode?
02:32:00perfectdrugi don't know I'm looking at the customwps site
02:32:06kugelit's off here
02:32:27kugelit should be for crossfade yes
02:32:46amiconnUnhelpful: No own allocator
02:33:18Unhelpfulhrm? so each glyph would be a buffer object also?
02:33:19kugelit doesn't seem to go on actually
02:34:06perfectdrug"Automatic Track Skip Only" is new according to customwps history
02:34:23kugelyea, blue_dude added it some weeks ago
02:34:38Unhelpfulalthough perhaps buflib-as-buffer ought to be proven on its own before any worry is given to buflib glyph cache and plugin buffer
02:35:15 Quit DerPapst (Quit: Leaving.)
02:37:22Unhelpfuli guess i was mainly thinking that the glyph-cache buffer will fragment much more quickly than the main buffer, and need compaction far more frequently.
02:37:38kugelUnhelpful: as I understand: buflib would only provide the audio buffer, the buffering within that buffer would still be managed by buffering.c?
02:38:05Unhelpfulkugel: *something* like that, maybe? ;)
02:38:38Unhelpfuli don't think we're able, now, to move the buffer of the currently-playing track, are we?

04:21:40CIA-88New commit by mt (r24615): Add support for Sony OMA file format. Currently only supports ATRAC3 (without DRM), and seeks. Tested on sansa ...
04:22:10Unhelpfulradially is "better"?
04:22:39checkeryeah id say so
04:22:44checkerlooks cooler at least :P
04:23:46Unhelpfulby radially you mean what, an arc? a pie-chart sort of circle thing? either is wasting rather a lot of space :/
04:24:33checkercircle, can surround a button
04:24:54checkerbut vertical is more practical
04:25:44checker.gif support would be best :D
04:27:21Unhelpfulnot really, with a bar we can easily show as much resolution on the progress bar as the space allows. with a gif we only have X frames.
04:27:50checkera gif that loads the same as the .bmp currently does
04:28:50checkerit'd add a little life to it
04:29:16Unhelpfuli'm not even sure what you mean by that. :)
04:29:50Unhelpfulsurely "loads the same as a bmp does" would not give you any new options
04:29:50checkerfor the progress bar, basically imagine a .gif file loading the same way as they do now.
04:30:08checkerby load, i mean how it loads the image as the time progresses
04:30:15mtNow we beat VLC in OMA playback. B)
04:30:40Unhelpfulso, you'd get what, the ability to *animate* the completed portion of the progress bar?
04:30:57checkerno, it would be animated as it loads
04:31:49checkeryou could make a vista-like shine shoot across it for example
04:32:38checkerhttp://www.romanw.com/progress_bar.gif check that out,
04:32:40Unhelpful... i'm still not really sure what you mean. so we'd load an animated gif, and draw a *portion* of it based on the amount played, and that portion would cycle through the frames of the animation?
04:33:05 Quit mt (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.86 [Firefox 3.5.7/20091221164558])
04:33:19checkeryes cycle through all frames of animation, but only the correct portion (based on time), is visible...
04:34:18Unhelpfulwell, good luck convincing anybody that we need that :)
04:34:45checkerlol, im just saying its better than a radial progress bar :P
04:36:32Unhelpful...yes, but the progress bar we have now is also better than radial. it presents information. and you can make it a color or graphic. also updating the LCD repeatedly to run an animation will kill batteries.
04:37:24checkerfor some people, action on the screen is more desirable than excess battery life
04:37:45checkerthe .gif would also present the same information
04:37:59checkerand you could make it a color or graphic :P
04:38:52Unhelpfulthen go ahead and write a gif loader and progress bar animator :)

05:09:50JdGordonpixelma: oh crap, the rec sim shows the fms which means its a target problem :<
05:16:02JdGordonUnhelpful: so whats the current issues with buflib? did you read the logs before? is buflib in a state where we could do what we want?
05:16:59UnhelpfulJdGordon: well, i suspect there are one or two places where its bufer gets corrupted. it currently lives in pluginlib. and i have no idea how we'd let a codec know that its buffer has moved.
05:18:01Unhelpfulalso buflib doesn't currently support the "give me all available space, i'll give back what i don't use" usage, but could do so fairly easily
05:18:25JdGordonif it can shrink blocks then thats not really an issue
05:18:34JdGordoneven then we can work around it
05:18:51JdGordonreplacing every alloc system with a single one would be sweet though
05:21:39Unhelpfulfor buffer_alloc we'd want to add support for a group of contiguous, rarely-moved allocations at the start of the buffer, and specifically for collecting free space between those and other allocations in order to place a new allocation *there* instead of wherever it can fit
05:22:08*Unhelpful is pretty sure that no allocation resizing is implemented
05:23:25Unhelpfulresizable buffer_alloc would also need a callback mechanism - if a buffer_alloc user generally assumes the buffer won't move, then a callback can be used when it *does* move, to fix up any pointers etc.
05:26:15JdGordonnot automagic behind the scenes resizing, but being able to explicitly say resize this handle to size X
05:26:28Unhelpfuland there's the whole issue of moving the currently-playing file's buffer. on single-core this could be done just like buffer_alloc allocations, a callback in which the codec fixes all of its pointers. for multi-core the COP *must* be stopped and forced to update any of *its* pointers.
05:27:38UnhelpfulJdGordon: i wasn't suggesting anything automagic... but if you have a stack of "static" buffers and the one on the bottom requests a resize, you can either move all of the others, or re-allocate that buffer somewhere else and create fragmentation (which you wouldn't be able to fix without moving those buffers around)
05:27:55Unhelpfulright now buflib has no concept of a buffer you can't/shouldn't move

07:38:30JdGordonactually, have you got time to play now
07:38:31JdGordon?
07:39:40pixelmano, got to get ready for work. I can let my computer compiling in the meantime but testing would need more attention
07:39:47JdGordoncan you change apps/recorder/radio.c line 984 to just "if (1)" and try again
07:40:45JdGordonthats the only line which could cause problems on target and not sim
07:40:57pixelmamultifont also has only seen testers on Sansas and Ipods, right? Nothing with an lcd remote even?
07:41:27pixelmaand no other architecture
07:41:42JdGordonI just tried on h300+remote
07:42:15JdGordonand i did the font for screen submenu thingy
07:47:26pixelmahmm... the radio screen works in the OndioFM sim but I first got crashes when going to the radio - with "bitmap too large for buffer: 45 bytes", unfortunately I haven't looked which theme was set before (built on top of a very old sim)
07:47:40 Quit liar (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
07:48:04JdGordonthen its probaly not an issue

07:50:18pixelmawhat do you mean with "it" there?
07:50:54JdGordonyour whole comment there. if you copied ontop of a very old sim who knows what could have caused that
07:51:40pixelmaok
07:52:14*Unhelpful still likes the idea of flags/types of some sort for a "core" buflib, which may introduce other bits into the buffer header that the buflib "knows" about, and perhaps does something with
07:52:58 Join einhirn [0] (~Miranda@bsod.rz.tu-clausthal.de)
07:53:01Unhelpfulfor example there could be flags for things loaded from files, and for things with dimensions, and if either of those is set the buflib would check for an existing buffer object that matches :)
07:53:03pixelmaof the shipped themes on the Archoses, iCatcher is the biggest wrt skin RAM usage and even if I load that, the radio screen shows now and doesn't crash the sim
07:53:50JdGordonok cool, so its only on target :/
07:56:12Unhelpfulthis could lead to AA loading once per album and per size
07:57:26JdGordoncool
08:00
08:01:05Unhelpfulbut... it would also require somewhere to *store* the flags field, although we could do something funny like limit length to 2^24 blocks and store flags in the low 8 bits of the size... otherwise every allocation would cost another 4B :/
08:01:49JdGordon2^24 should be enough blocks...
08:02:10JdGordonand do some sort of hash on the filenames and store that as extradata?
08:02:51Unhelpfulwell, we already store full filenames in the current buffer, don't we? i think they're part of the linked-list entry header :)
08:03:28JdGordonwe do?

08:11:28pixelmaJdGordon: just realised that there is a big difference between this sim FMS and the target FMS (or how it should be). The sim doesn't show peakmeter or pre-recording. The info for drawing %pm is pulled from the MAS afaik , so not a big surprise it cam ne drawn correctly in the sim. There is a fake %pm for the WPS though but I don't know if there are differences between how radio/recording or playback draws the peakmeter and gets the info for doing
08:11:28pixelma so
08:12:02JdGordonyou got cut off, but yes, I know there is a difference
08:12:18JdGordonwhich is why I've been nagging to get real testing on target
08:13:34UnhelpfulJdGordon: so then the buffering code would be responsible for uniquifying files, if we want to do that later? and the extradata could hopefully be made optional somehow?
08:13:54*pixelma wonders how a %pm works in an sbs when in the radio or recording screen but has to postpone testing until later

08:15:04TheSevenis that a build system fluke?
08:15:28TheSevenit doesn't look like one at the first glance, but i can't explain how it could happen otherwise either
08:15:37JdGordonUnhelpful: we could do something like find_handle(callback) where the callback return true if the current handle is the one it wants?
08:16:13JdGordonsince when do we build the database as a lib?
08:16:20JdGordonor binary even
08:16:52UnhelpfulJdGordon: but then we would not only be walking the whole buffer to find a matching handle, but *also* calling a callback for each. :/
08:17:26JdGordonnot if handles are given a user id or something, then only those are sent to the callback
08:17:26Unhelpfulthe target appears to *be* the standalone database tool?
08:18:22UnhelpfulJdGordon: and that's even more data that might potentially be stored in *every* handle header :/
08:19:01JdGordonextradata is 4 bytes? 3 for a handle id, 1 for user id
08:19:04Unhelpfulstuff like this makes me think even more that a buflib-glyph-cache ought to have its own buffer... so that every buffer walk doesn't hit a few hundred glyphs in the buffer, etc.
08:20:05JdGordonwe could even keep a linked list of a "users" handles
08:20:11JdGordonor the user could
08:20:29JdGordonhow complicated do we want to make this? :D
08:22:19*Unhelpful hands JdGordon the Gloves. (http://thedailywtf.com/Articles/The_Complicator_0x27_s_Gloves.aspx)
08:23:58Unhelpfulactually, buffering could initially allocate a list of handles-it-owns, and use that to do its own deduplication. and anything else that wants to could do the same.
08:25:06Unhelpfulif we make allocations resizable there is no good reason that this list needs to be a linked-list, it can be a simple array :)
08:25:10JdGordonhehe
08:25:41JdGordonI only care about shriking, growing could be difficult

08:49:30Unhelpfuland growing wouldn't be terribly harder than shrinking - it should be very similar to compaction, as it's still a matter of moving existing allocations around.

08:52:26*Unhelpful thinks the hardest problems will be mostly in doing this at all - making buffer_alloc allocations movable so that we can usefully clear or shrink them, making the currently playing track movable so that we can compact, and not just compact around, it.

11:46:51Unhelpfulgevaerts: you know that one of the proposed buflib uses is lots of small allocations/deallocations (glyph cache), right? ;)
11:48:48gevaertsUnhelpful: yes, and I don't think that's a good idea :)
11:49:22gevaertsalthough I might be wrong of course
11:49:39 Join GeekShadow [0] (~Antoine@reactos/tester/GeekShadow)
11:49:46Unhelpfulah. reasons? the main problems i see are that lots of objects in buffer means possibly a long walk to find free space
11:50:21gevaertsThe problem I see is that basically we want as much RAM as possible for the audio buffer, so in a trivial naive implementation, each allocation means that another one has to go/shrink
11:50:24Unhelpfuli don't think we'd see a horrible number of compactions happening if the glyph cache has its *own* buflib.
11:52:48Unhelpfulthe narrower the distribution in size of allocations, the more likely a recent free will fit a new allocation. otoh the audio buffer being fragmented by glyph cache abuse could mean quite a lot of compaction when a space can't be found for audio data and lots of tiny holes get squished together.
11:52:54 Join kramer3d [0] (~kramer@unaffiliated/kramer3d)
11:56:14gevaertsof course the glyph cache will never be very big in total, so compaction should be reaonably fast if those bits are the only issue
11:58:15 Join teru [0] (~teru@KD059133108225.ppp.dion.ne.jp)
11:58:41Unhelpfulyes, but in the best case compaction is one call to memmove per hole, worst case one per allocation above the lowest hole. i think the latter is how buflib currently does it, and to be honest i'm not sure the former is an improvement - it would require a second walk through each segment of contiguous allocations to fix up all of their handles, and that would probably be less cache-friendly than moving each buffer and then fixing its handle,
11:58:41Unhelpful since that way we're always moving up the buffer.
12:00
12:00:26Unhelpfuland i'm still not entirely sure how we will handle moving buffers that the COP accesses. although "COP never accesses buffer directly" might be feasible, if the COP threads can always be processing data that has come from some earlier calculation done on main core.
12:03:19gevaertsI'd actually handle glyph cache using a two-layer system, i.e. give it its own pool
12:04:36Unhelpfulthat's pretty much what i'm suggesting, buffer_alloc some space for glyph cache, and run an allocator there.
12:06:02gevaertsfor codec COP use, I'm pretty sure that we can probably get away with "don't move the buffer that the codec is currently working with"
12:09:34Unhelpfulif we make it a bit more flexible about how it finds space, i'd say definitely. things might get tricky in places - part of what i want to do is things like the ability to resize buffers that currently use buffer_alloc and can only be sized at startup, or to carve the plugin buffer out of the audio buffer on plugin startup and leave it for audio buffering when no plugin is running. these are both tricky and may *require* moving the
12:09:34Unhelpful currently-playing buffer, so i think we may need a method for that, but if it's called infrequently it won't be a big performance hit, and if it's usually the result of a user interaction, any skipping it might cause will likely go unnoticed. "oh, i made that happen" pretty much.
12:10:24 Join bmbl [0] (~Miranda@unaffiliated/bmbl)
12:11:13Unhelpfulwe already see this if WPS AA size changes during playback... but right now it forces a rebuffer to do that, and that's much worse than possibly having to stall the codec briefly.
12:12:57gevaertsresizing buffers doesn't have to mean moving a locked buffer, as long as you don't resize the locked one, and you assume that no buffer is larger than 1/3 of RAM
12:14:31gevaertsat least I think it's 1/3. Maybe my numbers are wrong and it's 1/4, but I don't think that matters right now
12:15:21gevaertsthat doesn't help with the plugin buffer of course. I don't really see a good solution for that one
12:16:37Unhelpfulgevaerts: i don't see how that would get you out of moving any specific buffer. the plugin buffer will be particularly tricky because unless we implement a relocating loader, it needs a fixed address.
12:17:58*gevaerts sees it, but he finds these things hard to explain :\

12:19:10gevaertshm
12:19:23*gevaerts thinks that maybe it's hard to explain because it's not entirely correct
12:19:44gevaertsCan I pile on more assumptions?
12:20:41Unhelpfulthe plugin buffer case i think makes it impossible to *always* avoid moving the current file buffer... since it could happen to overlap that fixed space. but a relocating loader has also been proposed, and would have other benefits (plugins could potentially short-call core functions, and at least would not have to load core function addresses from a table, among other things)
12:20:45Unhelpfulare they reasonable?
12:21:05gevaertsI don't know :)
12:21:23gevaertsI'm not going to solve the plugin buffer right now, but I'll have a go at the others
12:23:25 Join MethoS- [0] (~clemens@134.102.106.250)
12:23:27gevaertsIf (a) you never resize the currently-playing buffer, (b) no single buffer is larger than half of the RAM that's used for audio (*including* buffers used for audio), and (c) you're allowed to drop (or shrink) not-actively-used audio buffers, I think you can do it
12:27:28gevaerts(a) is only a requirement because obviously you can't resize the buffer that's at the end of the heap without moving it, and (b) and (c) together allow you to always find room for your resized buffer
12:28:30gevaertsI think (c) is reasonable because without that you have to reserve space for non-audio allocations which defeats the point of the entire exercise
12:28:44gevaertsI don't know how realistic (b) is
12:30:50Unhelpfulby "resize" you mean "grow"?
12:31:27gevaertsyes. Shrinking isn't very interesting :)
12:33:30Unhelpful(c) is a basic assumption of this whole plan, isn't it? the whole idea is that we can fill the buffer completely and then dump some audio when we load a bigger skin, or run a plugin that wants to grab some extra memory, or something like that.

14:37:58B4gderthat sounds like speculation to me ;-)
14:38:31kugelbut I'm fairly sure actually :)
14:38:45B4gderwhy would it do worse just because it does it many times?
14:38:49gevaertsit is spec-ulation in the sense that the spec guarantees that :)
14:39:27gevaertshm does it? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the exact issue
14:39:36kugelB4gder: because it's better to do an addition only once instead of thrice
14:40:14B4gderproves the compiler is still pretty stupid I guess
14:40:41rasherI think we can all agree gcc isn't exactly superhuman
14:41:03kugel(((p)+(v))<buffer_len ? (p)+(v) : (p)+(v)-buffer_len): v is used thrice. if v is an expression it's possible evaluated thrice, in an inline it's only evaluated once
14:41:24B4gderright, but it wasn't _because_ you made it inline
14:41:29B4gderit was because you changed the logic
14:41:31B4gderto be fair
14:41:39kugelno
14:41:42B4gderyes
14:41:50kugelI checked binsize with plain converting

14:47:37kugelthe same
14:47:59B4gderso then your explanation about the "less additions" is wrong?
14:48:28B4gderthis isn't very important, it just puzzles my curiosity
14:48:41kugelno, it shows that my explaination is right :)
14:49:05B4gderif that pastebin saved binsize, and it uses the same amount of operations, how can that then be?
14:49:36B4gderit would rather show that gcc is better to "collect" expressions within the scope of a function than within the scope where the macros were used
14:49:54kugelthe additions are evaluated before "calling" the inline functions. that doesn't happen in macros. since there's no other code change it must be the less additiopns
14:50:34B4gderin your pastebin they are not evaluated before calling them
14:51:00kugelsure, due to the fact that it's an inline function (what gevaerts noted)
14:51:14B4gderbut so is a macro
14:51:26B4gdermore or less
14:51:58kugela macro is text insertion. the parameters are inserted as they're written

14:53:26gevaertsan inline function should still be a function, which has guarantees about multiple evaluation of argunments
14:53:32kugelnah, inline functions work more like compiling the function as is, and then inserting that binary code where it would've been called. so in the callers all computations for arguments would happen
14:54:33B4gderthat's not exactly how inline functions work though

17:13:23HontoniLinuxHeya, earlier today I got a sansa e280 so I figured I'd install rockbox on it now. In linux it showed up as the device "sg0" which it wouldn't let me mount with the error "not a block device".

17:18:48stavrobhi everyone, i am using rockbox 3.5 with the latest bootloader on an ipod 5.5g 80GB. I am trying to get the HID working but whenever I plug in a usb cable it just immediately boots into the ipod firmware
17:19:04Tornestavrob: the release builds don't use our usb mode
17:19:12Torneinstall a current development build
17:19:16GodEaterstavrob: which means there is no HID
17:19:24Tornenote that usb file transfers may be slower, and charging may nt work properly
17:19:26wojtek1991Does anybody know how to make dictionary file for rb?
17:19:33stavrobTorne: someone might want to change the 3.5 release notes in that case i think then

17:42:32AlexPIpods don't charge properly under Rockbox, so can actually slowly discharge when being used over USB

17:56:39funmani think locking the same mutex several times in the same thread is allowed

18:01:30kugelarchivator: nice
18:02:12funmanranmachan: hm perhaps usb detection is called from the kernel tick, where mutexes can't work

18:06:58ranmachanAh and also in firmware/usb.c
18:07:31funmanranmachan: usb.c is the usb tick, so perhaps we have a problem there
18:08:14ranmachanYep, it's called from usb_tick
18:08:54wojtek1991Icanr get setup.ini.sig from rockbox.org
18:10:27funmanif the tick isr happens in the middle of an ascodec operation we can't use ascodec_*() in the isr
18:10:51funmanand we can't use mutex_lock() since the operation can't finish before the isr has returned

18:14:15kugelmutexes can't be used in isrs afaik
18:15:27funmanwe could use a status bit and do not run ascodec_*() if an operation is in progress
18:17:01ranmachanOr just check if the i2c_lock is taken and use a nonlocking i2c_read?
18:17:34funmanthere's no "nonlocking" i2c read
18:17:45funmanyou can only have one operation active at a time
18:17:50ranmachanOr maybe add a thread for the usb detection and
18:18:25funmani would add a bool ascodec_active(void); and use the previous state if it returns true
18:19:50ranmachanThat won't work since you still would have to use the lock-taking ascodec_read from within interrupt context if it's not active if I'm not mistaken?
18:19:51kugelcouldn't you just post to a thread from the usb tick; the thread would then read and change a variable which is read by the next usb tick?

18:21:04ranmachanI'd have suggested adding a thread which polls less often than usb tick, set the global from there and just return the variable state.
18:21:42ranmachanWhat's the tick frequency?
18:21:54kugelfunman: it will simply freeze
18:22:29kugelif a thread owns the mutex, then the isr will wait for the mutex being released. that can't happen in interrupt context so it will wait forever
18:22:41kugelranmachan: 100Hz
18:23:31funmankugel: but in this scenario we could only take the lock if it's not taken yet
18:23:40ranmachanI'd assume 10Hz would be sufficiently fast for usb presence polling :)

18:25:30funmanaddikt1ve: you can't afaik
18:25:53addikt1veand that's EXACTLY why I'm asking my question once again: what shall I do? :)
18:26:08topikfind someone with itunes
18:26:09funmanfind a computer running windows and install itunes
18:26:28addikt1vedo I really need to do such a thing?
18:26:56topikif you want it working again, kinda yes
18:26:57wojtek1991is there any rss channel with Subversion posts?
18:27:05addikt1vecan gtkpod restore an iPod?
18:27:21kugelwojtek1991: you mean wihch announces commits to the rockbox source?
18:27:22funmanwojtek1991: i don't think so but there is http://www.rockbox.org/recent.shtml#svn
18:27:39funmanaddikt1ve: ask gtkpod people but i don't think so
18:27:46kugelwojtek1991: there's a mailing list which is effectively the same
18:28:00addikt1vegonna take a look
18:28:13wojtek1991ok but I would like to add it to my webpage
18:28:19ranmachanOk, I've whipped something up, let's see if it works...
18:28:29addikt1vewell
18:28:35addikt1veactually my iPod isnt showing up
18:28:38wojtek1991I know how to do it with rss but what about mail list?
18:29:12kugelwojtek1991: you can look at svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/www/ in our page does it

18:29:39topikaddikt1ve: google has a couple of hits on 'restore ipod without itunes'
18:29:49ranmachanfunman: BTW how about using an interrupt instead? After all the hardware can generated one on usb status change...
18:30:24funmani don't know how to use interrupts with as3514
18:30:29addikt1vetopik: that's what I was looking for
18:30:33funmanthe i2c module isn't documented

18:30:43addikt1veplease forgive my english
18:30:53funmanthe registers names are in the datasheet but not their content (bits)
18:30:57kugelranmachan: you mean using the gpio change to initiate a i2c read?
18:31:06topikTheSeven would probably say it can be done by writing some of his special voodoo to the ipod directly
18:31:21topikit would still have to show up as an usb device though

18:33:28ranmachankugel: Well the problem is I couldn't find a gpio for usb status on my device.
18:34:12ranmachankugel: But as3525 datasheet says the as3514 part can generate an interrupt if the usb_status in irq_enrd_0 changes.
18:34:54funmanif you find how to setup interrupts with i2c, fine
18:35:34funmani think it's doable with a bit of reverse engineering

18:36:18ranmachankugel: No, I tried debug view I/O ports as is.
18:36:33kugelthe old button driver of the fuze/e200v2 needed to write a 0 to all relevant pins before reading, otherwise it just wouldnt work
18:37:05 Part topik
18:37:16 Join topik [0] (awesome@213.203.214.114)
18:37:30kugelit's possible that a pin is 1 after reset or just changes to 1 after some time even if 1 would indicate usb, so I would try writing a 0 just before reading
18:37:44kugel(that can even be different from unit to unit)
18:39:22kugelJdGordon: does fs#11004 contain insufficient info?
18:39:23JdGordonUnhelpful: gevaerts: to avoid heaps of unallocs/rallocs for the glyphcache I thought the fonts would stay the same as now and just do a big allocation for each, the size of that block would vary with the font size, but average aroun 25K or something
18:40:16JdGordonoh, ok thats cool

18:41:21kugelwhat is cool?
18:41:36ranmachankugel: dualboot.S doesn't do that though.
18:41:57JdGordonI didnt see the task yet
18:41:59ranmachanIt only writes 0 to the direction register and then reads the port status.
18:42:10kugelthat could very well be because the c200v2s we had so far didn't need it
18:42:26ranmachanAnd it works fine for the right button that way
18:42:52kugelwe have like 3 c200v2s, so it's possible we simply missed it
18:44:16ranmachankugel: So you mean switch to output, write 0, switch to input and read the port status?
18:44:22kugeland, as I said already, the c200v2 is under unusable so we don't garuantee any correctness in the current code :)
18:44:41archivatorCould someone please take a look at http://pastie.org/822084 and commit it if it's good enough? It's a little blurb in the manual about fft..
18:44:41JdGordonwe dont ever guarentee code correctness
18:45:06kugelranmachan: yes, you might need additional micro delays inbetween (like "volatile int i = 10; while (i−−);")
18:45:18archivatorThe touchscreen keymaps are not added but I am not sure how those work so I opted not to include them atm

19:11:40archivatorIf anyone's interested, this is the current incarnation of the python ifdef-to-latex conversion script. It should work in 90% of the cases. The input should contain only the #if ... #endif block with the keymaps. The script will ignore touchscreen keymaps (or rather anything after the #endif)

19:12:23ranmachankugel: Well, GPIOA_DATA = data would probably suffice. Just to put the backlight enable back :)

19:13:19ranmachanI've switched direction immediately before that, the bits in input mode should be unaffected by the write.

19:14:29kugelso it shows GPIOA = 0x00 actually?
19:15:39ranmachanNo, it shows 0x86 or 0x8e (menu pressed) or 0x82 (microsd present) or 0x8a (microsd present and menu pressed)
19:16:38kugelso A7 is set, bertrik mentioned the OF does something with A7?
19:17:52ranmachankugel: A7 switches on the backlight
19:18:06bertrikthe OF seems to be very variable on what bits to set in GPIO A, depending on at least 5 variables that somehow define the player type

19:58:09freddybJdGordon_: I suspect he means FS #11004. I tried it on a couple songs and it seems to work...
19:58:11pixelmaarchivator: put it on the tracker - also I think this plugin is swcodec only (and I see no *_PAD of hwcodec targets) so the input is wrong and it looks to me that the *_PAD don't always match what we have in the manual (it differs sometimes from the c code), e.g. the for M5 and X5 the macro is only called IAUDIO_X5_PAD for the manual, currently. And sometimes also \Buttons are also called different, I believe.
19:58:57pixelmaI'd also wish that the button table code follows the new scheme which makes it easier to add a column for targets with remotes (which I think is even needed already for the H100/H300 and Gigabeat (F and X, not sure about the S)

20:19:20Hacker258no, can't I enter numbers using the onscreen keyboard??
20:20:40linuxstbYes, but the keyboard is designed for text entry. To be consistent with the rest of the rockbox UI, you would use a "settings list" - i.e. a long list of numbers the user chooses from.
20:21:10Hacker258how would I make a list from 1 to 31

21:34:42gevaertsbut since it already eats lots of CPU by just sitting there, I think the big problems are either the sim audio driver or the sim lcd driver, or both
21:34:50JdGordon_maybe is swapping too much? (does it have swap space?)

21:36:10gevaertsIt does have swap, yes. I doubt that that would be it though
21:36:12Strife89I edited the defines for the iPod Color before, but I forget where the file is.
21:36:27gevaertsSince pulseaudio is also using a lot, I tend to think it's the sound driver
21:36:30Strife89I need to change it again.

21:44:14JdGordon_freddyb: nice patch! (havnt looked at the diff yet thuogh, only the description)
21:44:51JdGordon_do you rekon you can fix the problem where if you enable wps debugging in the sim and click in the lcd it should show the lcd pixel co-ordinates but really shows the window co-ords
21:50:15freddybJdGordon_: I don't know much about it. Is it just an offset for each player?
21:50:47JdGordon_yes, there is a #define for each player where the lcd should be
21:51:13JdGordon_also, your patch doesnt work for touchscreen targets?

21:53:03gevaertsfreddyb: I suspect that this is one of those patches that everyone has always wanted to do, only it's not extremely high on the priority list. Nice to see that someone finally does it :)
21:53:13JdGordon_amen
21:53:46gevaertsAs far as I am concerned, it's not wanted, it's needed!
21:53:46JdGordon_I bet im not the only one who clicks ont he sim buttons and wonders why nothing happens :p
21:54:04freddybOk, I try take some time and include all the players.
21:54:31*gevaerts has added a few comments
21:55:03JdGordon_also, remote buttons would be very useful

22:06:36*domonoky would think that all remotes (in rockbox) have buttons..
22:11:14pixelmawhat remote would it be without buttons? ;)
22:12:15gevaertschances of that being useful are indeed remote
22:12:28freddybIt would be a great remote for my niece...
22:12:38AlexPgevaerts: Even for you.... :)
22:13:38JdGordon_this of course will eventually lead to swappable remote backdrops for the h300 (3 remote types)
22:13:40pixelmaIrivers H100 and H300, the Iaudios, the M:robe500 (100 uses the same remote I think but I don't know if it is implemented). There are some non-lcd remotes which are not simulated thoug afaik
22:14:02AlexPIs the gigabeat remote implemented in the sim?
22:14:08AlexPI don't think so
22:15:21pixelmathat's what I meant with "some non-lcd remotes", there are non-lcd remotes for the Archos Recorders too
22:16:19pixelmaand H10 (that's another one which I'm not sure if it is supported by Rockbox though)

22:26:49castigousI just used the first time the new (?) *compressor* function of the 3.5 version and ...
22:27:20*JdGordon_ cant hold in his suspense
22:27:23castigousall the battery was dead in a matter of minutes (and I don't have my charger with me SNIFF) ...
22:27:41CIA-88New commit by mt (r24628): branches/mdctexp: Modify ATRAC3 codec to use the new MDCT library, ~1.2% speedup on Sansa E200.
22:28:09castigousis there any settings to the compressor (threshold, gain, knee, etc) that could help reduce the excessive cpu utilisation?
22:28:48archivatorcastigous: really? in a matter of minutes? or are you exaggerating a bit? :)
22:29:09castigous...because I really have a good use for this feature (L listened to classical and metal music, etc random mixed in a playlist)
22:30:21castigouswell it was at 47% when I turned it on, and +/-45 minutes later KABOOM, it depleted the whole battery and the player is brand new ...
22:31:11castigousI would REALLY love to use this but not if Iḿ going to be deprived of the use of my player...
22:31:36gevaertsWhich player is this?
22:31:36archivatorcastigous: what player is that and which version of rockbox are you running? (i.e., daily build, standard 3.5, etc)
22:32:43castigousso, any suggestions about it - the player is a brand new Sansa Fuze v1 with v3.5 and it runs pretty extensively (although I haven't measured it yet) without the compressor and with replaygain ...
22:33:17castigouswhich by the way kind of works but not as good as the compressor (it was working great for my situation but...)

22:39:07castigousot comments?
22:39:43archivatorwell, you're the first to report anything like this afaik
22:40:26archivatorPersonally, i've been using the compressor since day 1 and can easily squeeze 10+ hours out of my ipod 5.5
22:42:25bluebrothercastigous: replaygain working worse than the compressor? You do have replaygain tags in your files, do you?
22:42:35castigousyeah, it was a *big* surprise to me when the voice told me I had 15% percent of battery and then a couple of minutes later (I dont remeber x%) and then shut itself off
22:43:03Unhelpfulcastigous: replaygain depends entirely on your files having tags. and it serves a different purpose than the compressor.
22:43:31castigousyes, I have replagain (track) applied by foobar and it works but not so much in a noisy environment and with the kind playlist genre mix that I usually do
22:44:53Unhelpfulwell, yes, in a noisy environment you might want the quiet *parts* of songs made louder, which is something replaygain is not intended to do
22:45:16castigousbut the compressor worjed pretty great (although with the max threshold), I could hear the pianissimos (super soft passages) of classical music, and later don become deaf with a modern mixed and mastered song
22:47:51*TheSeven will quickly check compressor power consumption on nano2g
22:48:29Llorean47% might not actually be 47%
22:48:44LloreanI know that several of my players don't report an accurate battery reading immediately upon boot.
22:49:05freddybJdGordon: I think I got your coordinates figured out on the simulator for −−debug-wps
22:49:09LloreanI'd suggest running a proper battery bench on the player with and without compressor just to see what the real difference in consumption is.
22:50:04castigousI like mixing genres because have lots of (different genres of) music to learn from and when in street I like to be surprised by the next song...
22:50:18TheSevenno noticable difference on nano2g
22:50:27JdGordon_freddyb: sweet :)
22:50:29TheSevenmaybe 1mA, but definitely not more
22:51:52TheSevenwith an without compressor: 18mA

23:48:25JdGordon_in theory it should be able to, probably need to add a bunch of functions t the plugin api to do it though
23:49:00gevaertshave a look at test_codec
23:50:30archivatorI just had a crazy idea - if it's possible, it might be possible to turn fft into a viewer (as well as its current mode) - that way you could take all the time in the world to do a proper analysis.
23:58:39TheSevenshould be possible. and if not, just make it possible ;-)
