#rockbox log for 2014-11-14

00:00:15[Saint]it is _very_ strange that not even the fallback image provides a reliable USB connection.
00:00:38Cunctator_i doing another try, just to be sure...
00:01:10Cunctator_yeah, same. Removable Disk F: impossible to open
00:01:58copperreboot the PC
00:02:09Cunctator_? yeah?
00:02:56[Saint]Yeah. Windows is a strange creature. A reboot may well be advisable here.
00:02:59Cunctator_is this move [Saint] approved? :)
00:03:01Cunctator_alright

00:07:02Cunctatorand im back
00:07:06Cunctatorcomputer freshly rebooted
00:07:21Cunctatorshould I also reboot Rockbox, just to be sure?
00:08:05[Saint]Yes.
00:08:09[Saint]Please.
00:09:15Cunctator(so before showing the main menu it says ; no rockbox installation found or 'incomplete')
00:09:31[Saint]thats expected.
00:09:35Cunctatorok
00:10:12Cunctatoralso under System>ROckbox info it says : Version r31516-120101
00:10:13[Saint]Its just complaining that there's no user installed Rockbox image, which is totally fine.
00:10:20[Saint]As it will just load the fallback.
00:10:53Cunctatoralright, trying again with the USB cable now
00:11:19[Saint](which can't play media, as it has no codecs, and no plugins, it exists just to facilitate installation and a (supposedly) known stable USB connection)
00:11:58Cunctatornope same stuff. Oh joy.
00:12:20Cunctatordo you think that the fact that i still had that "iPod Controls" folder has anything to do with this all?
00:12:32Cunctatoryou seemd to think it was not normal
00:13:04[Saint]I'm not sure why it was there, but it definitely shouldn;t be there now. And the issue is still presenting itself.
00:13:50[Saint]This is all quite strange. I wonder, what driver is being used when the device is connected?
00:14:10Cunctatorwell yes if anything im worse off :)
00:14:13Cunctatorwhat do you mean?
00:14:36 Join fs-bluebot [0] (~fs-bluebo@g224237078.adsl.alicedsl.de)
00:14:49[Saint]What is it presenting itself as in the device manager, and what driver is used for the device.
00:17:18CunctatorOK says: portable device, Apple, location generic volume. Driver 6.3.9600.16384
00:17:38[Franklin]I don't think that's rockbox's driver
00:17:50[Saint]Right.
00:17:58[Saint]Lets uninstall that driver.
00:18:26Cunctatorand then?
00:18:31copperany chance my build with the phony USB ID would work?
00:19:19[Saint]eject and re-plug the device and see what it wants to do with it.
00:20:05[Franklin]ugh... I can't figure out how to get xworld to draw the screen pre-rotated
00:20:21[Franklin]so now it has to draw it, and then rotate it
00:20:39[Saint]since its going to be entirely irrelevant to you (in theory, if we get it working for you), you'll probably want to uninstall iTunes entirely as its of no use.
00:21:00[Franklin]it would save memory, and speed up the code
00:21:08[Franklin]but I can't figure it out
00:21:16[Saint]that's definitely one way of guaranteeing itunes isn't getting in the way.
00:21:25CunctatorOK on it
00:21:31[Saint](and, its a piece of shit ;))

00:24:46[Franklin]copper: sure thing :)
00:25:31[Franklin]actually, maybe it should wait
00:25:40[Franklin]until it gets committed (if ever...)
00:26:19[Franklin]ok I got rotation working
00:27:27CunctatorOK, after the longest uninstall process ever, iTunes is out of the way. Need I reboot again?
00:27:36[Franklin]yes
00:27:46[Franklin]actually, no
00:27:48[Saint]correct.
00:27:59[Franklin]it should have terminated the process in the uninstall
00:28:06[Franklin]but still, reboot to remove the driver
00:28:12Cunctatorlets err on the side of caution. Back in a minute
00:28:19*[Saint] nods
00:29:03copperomg, I'm having flashbacks of Flashback
00:29:40copperboth 2D and 3D games
00:29:52[Franklin]aww but its reversed

00:31:24Cunctator_aaand, i'm back
00:31:27Cunctator_awaiting instructions
00:31:29[Saint]heh - I vaguely recall that.
00:32:34[Saint]Cunctator_: ok, well now the host OS should be treating it as the removable storage volume we'd like it to.
00:32:39 Quit Cunctator (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
00:32:50Cunctator_lets see
00:33:07[Saint]It /should/ appear as 'iPod CLassic' or so, and the driver refer to Rockbox.
00:33:38 Quit bertrik (Remote host closed the connection)
00:33:48[Saint](i think...)
00:35:32Cunctator_no. Its still a Removable Disk (and cant be opened). The Device manager now says manufactuer Microsoft instead of Apple. and the driver number is 6.3.9600.16384 (which I dont remember if is the same as before or not)
00:35:57[Saint]o_o
00:36:26[Saint]this is...shennanigans.
00:36:50Cunctator_tell me about it...
00:37:10Cunctator_I'm super grateful to you, but I'm starting to lose hope
00:37:33[Saint]I really don't know how to go forward at tis point.
00:37:48[Saint]All the things that absolutely should work haven't.
00:38:24[Saint]So I'm not entirely sure what else to do other than guide you though restoring the original firmware so you have a functional device to use.
00:38:41***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
00:39:07Cunctator_that'd be better than nothing yes. I use Mediamonkey as a music manager, I can sync it with that and that's it. Until a stable release comes out (if ever?)
00:40:28[Saint]The type of debugging that this requires is beyond my ability and likely requires the oversight of TheSeven in #freemyipod-support (but he is super busy and getting a response from him may take some rather extended periods of idling in the channel as he's flat out with work and school)
00:41:11Cunctator_yeah...I'm not blaming anyone, dont worry. Just frustrated that of all people with working 7g classics I had to be the one :(
00:41:27[Saint]Ok. We'll want http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Uninstallation
00:41:59[Saint]That points to a very specific version of iTunes to restore the device with, as other versions are known to be problematic.
00:42:12Cunctator_crap. I have to re-download iTunes :(
00:42:21[Franklin]Cunctator_: sorry
00:42:36[Franklin]Cunctator_: you could always give it another try someday
00:42:49[Saint]I'm very sorry this has happened to you. But as I say, the level of debugging this would now require is far beyond my skill.
00:43:17Cunctator_crazy idea: what if I do the whole uninstall procedure and tomorrow try once again from scratch
00:43:29[Saint]It couldn't hurt.
00:43:42[Franklin]yeah
00:43:44[Franklin]or do it again now!
00:43:52Cunctator_it doesn't? does it not "tire" the HD to do this over and over?
00:44:02[Franklin]no
00:44:12Cunctator_well guys, it's nearly 1am over here, and I'll need to sleep rather soon :)

00:45:30[Saint]Or, someone here.
00:45:32 Quit ZincAlloy1 (Quit: Leaving.)
00:46:24[Saint]And, again, I'm terribly sorry for this experience.
00:46:33Cunctator_OK, well, tomorrow morning I'll go back to the original firmware. Then I'll be away from home for a day or two, so I'll probably try again on Sunday
00:46:36Cunctator_nah, don't worry
00:47:10Cunctator_I mean, Rockbox is pretty cool, and I just wanted it to work. But worst case scenario, I'll just have an iPod
00:47:22Cunctator_just bought it because i heard it was getting discontinued
00:47:24[Saint]Ok. Well, feel free to try and get hold of me if you need to.
00:47:29Cunctator_and its hard to find players this big
00:47:33Cunctator_I will

08:33:15yurikswish I knew what happened to USB
08:33:44yuriksI'm reduced to using the OF for the Clip+, it's the only way of getting usb access
08:34:21yuriks3.13 still randomly freezes or gives windows a "your USB device malfunctioned"
08:34:30copper3.13 is _old_
08:34:34yuriksI even bought a new clip+ thinking mine was flaky and still having the same problem
08:34:46yurikscopper: well, same thing with several dev versions (either nightly or compile myself)
08:34:58yuriksand it used to work just fine a year ago or so
08:35:22yuriksit's like there's a ghost haunting me or something, it's really the only explanation I have since I changed everything else :P
08:36:01yuriks(multiple cables, multiple USB ports, multiple PCs, multiple Clips, with or without a SD card)
08:36:18yuriksguess I should try 3.12 to see how it fares
08:36:22copperWindows?
08:36:31yurikshmm, true, both are on windows 8 now
08:37:21yuriksthough I *think* it was also working fine on windows 8 in the past, so it's probably 8.1 specifically
08:37:36yuriks(and I think they messed with the USB stack on 8.1 so that would make sense)
08:38:48yuriksbah, can't use 3.12 since I have opus, well worth a try anyway
08:38:52***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
08:43:06yuriksyeah, 3.12 is a no go

10:15:24copperCunctator: can you try this build, just in case? http://caudec.net/rockbox/rockbox-ipod6g-440ff95M-140517.zip
10:21:18Cunctatorhey copper
10:21:29Cunctatorwell to be honest I'm a bit concerned about my iPod now
10:21:38Cunctatori restored it to Apple firmware
10:21:57Cunctatorbut now if I open it, it is full with folders and files named more or less like this : ₧ºo─█n╞
10:22:13Cunctatorlike, dozens of them
10:22:36Cunctatorthe name of the drive too is like "₧ºo─█n╞ (F:)"
10:22:44Cunctatori dont think this is a good sign
10:22:54gevaertsIt's not indeed.
10:25:25Cunctatorhave I managed to break a brand new ipod in 2 days? Awesome. Can I get a prize for that?
10:25:46gevaertsIf you have treated the ipod nicely (unplugged safely and so on) since restoring, I'd say it's getting more likely that there's some hardware issue somewhere
10:26:46gevaertsDoes the classic's OF have a diagnostics mode?
10:27:03*gevaerts wouldn't retry emcore/rockbox before checking things out properly with the OF
10:27:18Cunctatornot sure...how do i find out?

10:32:18Cunctatorumm, i have a large number of Reallocs (1384) but zero Pending Sectors
10:32:21Cunctatorwhatever that means
10:34:10gevaertsAre there tests you can run?
10:34:28*gevaerts doesn't have a classic, so he only knows about rumours and what he can quickly find...
10:34:39Cunctatorlooks like this is the only diagnostic screen i can get
10:35:53Cunctatoryeah it's OK you're already kind to help. I just simply cannot believe the HDD got fucked with 2 days of playing around
10:36:13Cunctatoreither I got the one faulty item out of thousands
10:36:30Cunctatoror I managed to screw up big time with the installation of Rockbox
10:36:37Cunctatorwhich, since it was working, I can't see how
10:37:07gevaertsI don't see how emcore or rockbox could have caused the sort of issues you're having
10:37:18gevaertsIt's either a RAM issue or a disk issue I'd say
10:37:47gevaertsSo I suspect you got unlucky and got the faulty item...
10:38:17CunctatorI guess this is what happens when you buy from ebay
10:38:37Cunctator(again, it was new, still in the original plastic wrap)
10:38:54***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:38:55gevaertsI'm not sure the wrap proves much
10:39:45Cunctatorwell, both that and the little protective plastic cover in which the ipod itself is stored. I mean it looked absolutely identical to a previous new ipod I bought in a store years ago
10:39:57Cunctatorif it was actually not new, they did an awesome job in making it look like
10:41:55gevaertsOf course, maybe it's as simple as it having been dropped in the wrong way once
10:42:05gevaertsPackaging can only do so much to protect things
10:42:17Cunctatortrue...
10:42:47Cunctatornow whats particularly enraging is that i bought this when I heard they were stopping producing it
10:42:55Cunctatorbecause I really need a large storage space
10:43:08Cunctatornow im fucked. Not only this is broken, but I cannot even get a new one
10:43:45*gevaerts would talk to the seller first
10:45:40CunctatorI'm not sure the electronics shop in Singapore would give a damn...
10:46:19gevaertsYes, there is that. I'd still contact them though, you never know...
10:47:18Cunctator!!! hold on! I just restored once again through iTunes. The weirdly named folders are all gone, and the name of the drive is back to normal!
10:47:35gevaertsWill it stay that way though?
10:48:38gevaertsIf you keep having problems, try catching [7] (or TheSeven, his nick varies) either here or in #freemyipod to figure out if it's definitely the disk. If you know which specific part is bad, replacing that might be an option (although that would mean investing even more money)
10:49:45Cunctatoralright I'll try
10:49:48Cunctatorthanks a lot
10:50:11Cunctatorhaving some support helps delaying despair :)

21:18:34pamauryyeah but something is very wrong

21:20:40pamauryhttp://pastebin.com/YRwnumCn
21:20:48pamaurymissing a file
21:21:00wodzcould it be that target buffer is unaligned and so memcpy() falls back to reading in bytes?
21:21:32pamauryhttp://pastebin.com/sfGycPaD
21:21:47pamauryI thought about it but apparently it is not the case
21:23:39wodzI should look for different memcpy() implementation to check
21:23:40pamauryyeah I think something is wrong with memcpy
21:23:55wodzhehe, it is copied from rb outright
21:24:06pamaurymaybe it doesn't do correct 32-bit accesses when it can ?
21:24:27pamauryhwstub really relies on memcpy to do smart stuff for register accesses to work as expected
21:25:13wodzI think the easiest thing is to check other memcpy() implementation for mips
21:25:27pamauryhwstub should probably have a default C implementation for reference
21:25:35***Alert Mode OFF
21:25:38pamauryI can do that in the mean time if you want
21:26:01wodzpamaury: there is reference implementation in rockbox as a failsafe
21:26:48pamauryindeed, I'll copy it

21:28:15pamauryI'm wondering if hwstub shouldn't do a special case for 1/2/4 bytes access to make sure things work as expected
21:28:31pamaurydon't you think ?
21:28:45wodzIts hard to believe that memcpy() is broken. Thats very basic stuff.
21:29:01wodzMakes sense I'd say
21:29:36pamauryor maybe create new READ_ATOMIC and WRITE_ATOMIC requests...
21:31:07wodzpamaury: but this will improve things only when you restrict reads to aligned addresses so it will translate to native single instruction (ldr, ldrh, ldrb for arm; lw, lh, lb for mips)
21:31:35pamauryyeah but these are the only cases which make sense for register accesses
21:32:50wodzright
21:33:25wodzBut this should be separate special case, maybe separate request as you propose.
21:33:49wodzreading 4bytes from unaligned ram address is pretty valid usecase
21:35:48pamauryyes of course but then it's not atomic, so yeah separate request make sense
