03:50:09__builtinfurrywolf: no, the last "release" is horribly out of date
03:51:11furrywolfso... am I completely missing something, or does shuffle simply not work?
03:52:03chrisjjShuffle on the Playlist menu?? The current dev build has none. It has Reshuffle on the Playlist menu.
03:52:41furrywolf... I downloaded whatever development build the automatic installer downloads, and it's most definitely "shuffle".
03:53:16furrywolfand it does work, and shuffles the current playlist.
03:54:31furrywolfbut the shuffle playback option, as accessed in the playback settings menu, or from the quick settings menu, seems to have no effect whatsoever, either adding or playing tracks.
03:55:08chrisjjI don't believe the automatic installer downloads any dev build. And I don't know what version you have with Shuffle there. What I see is http://i.imgur.com/UhgBngw.png .

04:16:48furrywolfso... shuffle is broken by design?
04:17:23furrywolfshuffle should affect the playback order, not the actual playlist order. there's already an "insert shuffled" option for that, and the option to shuffle the playlist.

04:21:52furrywolfhttp://fw.bushytails.net/tmp/rockbox01.jpg you can see that on my non-simulated one, it most definitely says "shuffle". lol
04:23:08furrywolfbut, I think the problem is more of a design issue, than a bug... why the hell are there two ways of doing the same thing? why is the playlist being shuffled when files are added, depending on the global shuffle option, when there's a separate option to insert them shuffled? why does shuffle not behave like 99.99% of people would expect it to, and only affect playback order, not the actual playlist order?
04:23:32furrywolfalso, why does the manual disagree on all of this? :)
04:24:31chrisjjIIUC the usual reason for two ways of doing something and a third in the manual is that three people contributed. :-)
04:24:41furrywolflol
04:25:09chrisjjThere are many instances in which the manual and program do not accord. Some coders don't like doing documentation.

04:27:40furrywolfalso, don't have one function named randomise_playlist, and another playlist_randomise... that just makes following it painful for no good reason at all. :)
04:34:36furrywolfwhy can you get to "insert" from the playlist menu? does is just add the track twice? heh
04:34:54chrisjjI think more of an issue than painful for the coders is e.g. having three different menus titled Playlist making it painful for the users.
04:35:30furrywolfheh, and "play next" creates a playlist containing only the selected track... twice.
04:36:11chrisjjYou get there from Current Playlist. The better question is why one can get to Current Playlist from the Playlist menu.

04:42:35chrisjjI'd guess not many people use it much.
04:42:39HyperTalk_84I'd like to thank for RockBox, served well for me
04:43:00***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
04:44:18furrywolfI don't mean the UI, I mean the internal logic.. right now the playback shuffle option, rather than actually shuffling playback, seems to do the same thing as the insert shuffled option.
04:44:50furrywolfeven though there's a quick settings option to turn shuffle on and off, it's 100% useless, because shuffling is only done when tracks are added?
04:45:27chrisjjI'd say it is less useless than 100%.
04:46:10chrisjjYes its a mess, but that doesn't explain why Playback Shuffle doesn't work for you selecting tracks.
04:46:20chrisjjHere's a video of it working for me: https://youtu.be/KU5-5aHL2Ds
04:46:33furrywolfI can't view youtube.
04:47:05chrisjjDownload? https://www.dropbox.com/s/9lh8xmub312ke6s/RB%20Playback%20Shuffle%20verification.mpg?dl=0
04:47:46furrywolfI could, but I don't have high-speed internet, and I pay $11/GB. heh.
04:48:17furrywolfthe quick settings shuffle option is working now. WTF. lol
04:48:46furrywolfso it's something random that I prodded the right way screwing with it.
04:50:23furrywolfOK. If you use "insert", while shuffle is on, it breaks.
04:50:35chrisjjI got success by starting with no config.cfg, setting just Playback Shuffle On, and in Files selecting a track in a folder.
04:50:39furrywolfif you insert while shuffle is off, then it works.
04:51:11furrywolfif you toggle shuffle a few times, then it shuffles.
04:51:33furrywolfexcept it never actually un-shuffles... it just re-sorts the list, losing any manual ordering you did.
04:53:02furrywolfand if you insert things at a particular spot, they get inserted at the start of the list anyway.
04:54:03furrywolfsuggestion: play should get you back out of the quick settings menu and go back to playing, like it does on every single other screen.
04:55:21furrywolfnext issue... when I plug it in to my laptop to charge, it connects and disconnects constantly, both pissing off the player and spamming dmesg. stock firmware doesn't do this.
04:55:49furrywolfLOL. except for this time, where plugging in the usb cable caused it to immediately panic.

04:57:54HyperTalk_84My clip+ worked well. The fuse may be less stable with ROckBox.
05:00
05:00:00furrywolfI'm guessing it's leaking memory somewhere and running itself out of ram reconnecting constantly. "usb 8-1.1: new high-speed USB device number 43 using ehci_hcd" "usb 8-1.1: device descriptor read/all, error -110" "usb 8-1.1: new high-speed USB device number 44 using ehci_hcd" etc etc etc. sometimes it successfully negotiates, then disconnects again.
05:00:04furrywolfand now it just paniced again.
05:01:03furrywolfin any case... I can't charge it.
05:01:04chrisjjHere on fresh RB, plugging in the USB immediately after unplugging causes a crash. Workaround: wait a few seconds.
05:01:23furrywolfit's constantly connecting and disconnecting on its own
05:01:24chrisjjs/crash/PANIC crash/
05:01:49furrywolfand for some reason it's connecting as a hid keyboard. what the hell?
05:02:48furrywolfI can't charge it or copy files to it, as it disconnects and reconnects constantly.
05:03:08furrywolfand then panics. :)

05:06:09furrywolfdisabling usb hid did not fix the constant reconnects
05:06:44chrisjjWhen I've got that connect/disconnect loop, I've found RB is crashing on connect, then RB watchdog detects the crash and resets the device, and then RB reconnects.
05:06:51furrywolfit keeps trying to switch between the picture of the usb plug and the main menu, then panics.
05:07:01chrisjjYou may see some telltale on device screen.
05:07:17furrywolfno, it's not restarting... it shows the usb plug, then it reloads the playlist and goes back to the main menu.
05:07:32chrisjjAnd then it goes back to USB??
05:07:40furrywolfyep
05:07:59chrisjjOh. That's a loop I've not seen.
05:08:00furrywolfand then it loads the playlist...
05:08:05furrywolfand then after a couple of times it panics
05:08:23furrywolfwatching the kernel log shows it's actually reconnecting every few seconds
05:08:39chrisjjDo you see an "error loading playlist" pop-up over the USB plug image?
05:08:45furrywolfon both the usb plug screen and the menu screen
05:08:45furrywolfno
05:08:54furrywolfit successfully loads it and goes back to the main menu
05:09:13chrisjjHow do you know it reloads the playlist?
05:09:20furrywolfhrmm, now it seems to have hard crashed... it's stuck on the main menu with no response to input.
05:09:41furrywolfbecause it says different percentages that increase, then it switches back to the main menu at about the spot 100% would be
05:10:02chrisjjIs your playlist huge?
05:10:31furrywolfaccording to the kernel log, it's reconnecting every 10.5 seconds, until it panics.
05:10:42furrywolfa couple thousand tracks
05:11:14furrywolfjust paniced with playlist_resume OOM again.

05:13:02furrywolfI only have one pc easily usable at the moment. the stock firmware handles usb fine.
05:13:02chrisjjWhat happens with a dozen-track playlist?
05:13:25furrywolfit reconnects every second or so, at least from what I remember from earlier.
05:14:10chrisjjIs that when playing audio?
05:14:27furrywolfor it just crashes immediately when I connect the usb cable. sigh...
05:14:35furrywolfit locked up again.
05:15:09furrywolf... that's new. now it just boots to a plain white screen.
05:15:38furrywolfshows the black loading screen for a fraction of a second, can't read what it says
05:15:58furrywolfboots fine with the usb cable unplugged
05:16:35furrywolflol, now, with a 13-track playlist, it panics at usb_storage_init_connection OOM.
05:17:10furrywolfit seems to be having memory management issues.
05:17:36furrywolfI'm beginning to thick rockbox may not meet my mp3 player needs at this time.
05:18:19chrisjjI wonder if the dev build has been tested on Sansa Fuze recently.
05:18:46furrywolfI would go with "no", since "panics upon connecting usb cable" is a pretty noticable issue.
05:20:30chrisjjThe forums.rockbox.org outage has just ended, so perhaps ask there.
05:20:49furrywolfis that the same outage as themes.?
05:20:55chrisjjYes.
05:21:44furrywolfthis is taking way too much effort... I just want my radio to play mp3s. lol
05:24:19chrisjjSomeone will be along any minute to tell you "Rockbox is by developers for developers" :-) Despite which I hope you get it working. Bye for now.

And I also expect the order in the playlist being the order the tracks will be played, so when starting one in shuffled mode on a folder, I expect to see this when I view the playlist.

I suspect the following: bigger fonts may already use so much of available RAM that the voice file can't be loaded into RAM anymore (I believe on swcodec it needs to completely fit into the buffer). So not the font file to blame in itself but a bunch of things and settings

14:31:31pixelmawell, if it all adds up then a little something could push it over the edge
14:31:57pixelmaI remember having to reduce the size of the voice files on the Ondio now and then
14:33:04gevaertsTrue, but in this case they report that it works with some larger fonts

15:10:58chrisjjGlad to hear you think a patch would be welcome. However I think a patch to make the manual accurately describe how the code does work would be unwelcome to some, since it would make the code look pretty stupid.

15:11:31chrisjjHowever if there's anyone who'd like to collaborate on sorting out the shuffle code, do say!
15:16:52pamauryI don't user the shuffler, so I don't know anything about it
15:18:17pamauryalso your suggestion is ridiculous, either you misunderstand the code and it's not stupid, or it is indeed stupid and can be fixed. Despite what you may think or say, we are not hiding things by rewriting the manual
15:19:32pamauryor maybe you use the shuffler for something it was not designed for, I don't know
15:21:14chrisjjI'm not suggesting anyone's hiding things by rewriting the manual. I'd guess the reason the manual doesn't accord is that no-one's rewriting it when the code changes.
15:23:30chrisjjI also think changing stupid code is not that easy. Some users are adapted to stupid code, and their use patterns can be broken by a change to sensible code that meets expectations of new RB users coming from standard players, such as furrywolf above.
15:24:54chrisjjI can't say whether I sue the shuffler for something it wasn't designed for. Because I can't tell what it was designed for. I can tell only what RB shuffle does (which is not what shuffle normally does) and what the manual says RB does (which is not what RB does).
15:25:48chrisjjIf you have a go at using shuffle yourself, I think you'll see what I mean.
15:29:10pamauryI don't see anything wrong with, I added a directory to play, enable shuffle and it's shuffled
15:29:29pixelmaRockbox shuffle does what I expect it too.
15:29:41pixelmas/too/to
15:30:02chrisjjISTM the UI suggests shuffle is designed a playback mode, whereas the command behaviour suggests it is designed as a playlist modifier.
15:30:02pamauryit's a shuffle, ie it's not random advance
15:30:31chrisjjThis could be just because this is the work or two designers... or no designers :-)
15:30:56pamauryit's can be a playback mode, shuffle cannot apply to one song, it applies to a list, and in this case the current playlist
15:31:17pamaury*it can't be
15:31:57pamaurydo you have a simple example that demonstrates a behavior you don't expect so that we can at least understand ?
15:32:29chrisjjI think you'd find it useful to actually try it. RB does not operate as a playback mode on the current playlist, despite what one would think from itehr players, from the RB UI, and perhaps from the manual.
15:32:56chrisjjRe example, good idea. I'll write one up.
15:33:38pamauryI'm trying it right now, it's working exactly as I expect so far
15:33:57pamauryshuffle mode shuffles the playlist
15:36:56chrisjjFor some idea of why what it does is not necessarily what others expect and want it to do, see above around "[03:39] <furrywolf> shuffle seems broken by design".
15:39:32pamauryat best that's an argument that the manual is not clear enough about what it does. You can't call a feature broken if it does something entirely different from what you expect
15:40:30chrisjjI think the reason he's calling it broken is that is does something entirely different from what he'd expect from other players, and from the RB UI.
15:42:02chrisjjI'll write that example.

17:46:35furrywolfI'm downloading 3.13 now to see if it works less poorly.
17:49:29furrywolfusb works in 3.13. so it's regressed between stable and devel.
17:50:43duo8wasn't there a change in usb core?
17:51:26furrywolfI have absolutely no idea. But it worked before. It doesn't now. lol
17:52:11pamaurywhich target ?
17:52:33furrywolfsansa fuze v1
17:52:54pamaurythere was a change for amsv2 targets (fuzev2, fuze+, clipv2, clip+, clip zip), I don't think amsv1 have changed
17:53:14furrywolf3.13 behaves as expected - can mount the drives, etc. current devel reconnects constantly then panics with OOM errors from various places.
17:54:50duo8pamaury do you think a serial port would be useful?

19:15:14pamauryfurrywolf: of shuffle that is not what you expect on current dev build
19:15:24pamauryalong with what it is on 3.13 and what you expect it to be
19:17:18furrywolfok, first of all, there's the entire idea of how shuffle works - re-arranging the playlist itself instead of just picking the next track to play in a non-linear fashion, like every other shuffle. for specific examples, if shuffle is already set to on when you use insert, no shuffling happens, and you have to toggle shuffle off and back on. sometimes even that doesn't make it shuffle, but I haven't identified what determines whether it w
19:17:54pamauryfurrywolf: shuffle is not random advance
19:17:59pamauryit's shuffle
19:19:05pamauryonce shuffled, order is deterministic, but the shuffle itself uses a random seed, that way you will play each song exactly once but in a random order
19:19:52furrywolfyes, I noticed. I also noticed that it makes it a total pain in the ass to select a track manually unless you un-shuffle and re-shuffle.
19:20:21furrywolfwhile everyone else's shuffle still lets you manipulate the playlist in an un-shuffled fashion.
19:20:36furrywolfbecause it's only changing the playing order, not the actual playlist. :)
19:21:00duo8rockbox is designed around playlists iirc
19:21:07duo8so it makes sense
19:21:22furrywolfsometimes it simply won't shuffle, period. I didn't identify why. Using "insert" while shuffle is turned on seems to be a factor, as the inserted tracks are never shuffled.
19:21:43duo8also, this allows you to go back one track then advance to the same one as before, which i like
19:21:46pamaurythat's why there is insert and insert shuffle, iirc
19:22:00furrywolfI couldn't reliably reproduce it not being shuffled even after turning shuffle off and back on.
19:22:10furrywolfand unreproducable bugs are best!
19:22:50furrywolfa bigger issue is the broken USB in devel. with devel I can not mount the drive nor charge the player. I had to use the stock firmware to downgrade...
19:23:25duo8i had this issue once where tracks would stop or skip randomly
19:23:38duo8was never able to figure out why
19:24:06 Quit parchd (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
19:24:47furrywolfwith devel, upon connecting the usb cable, it shows the usb plug screen, then immediately disconnects from the computer and starts reloading the playlist. then it switches back to the usb plug screen. sometimes it makes it to the main menu first, sometimes not. after a few rounds of this it dies with an OOM in one of a few places.
19:24:49duo8also don't bother with data transfer over usb
19:25:13furrywolfif you boot with the usb cable connected, it either does the same thing, or just flashes to a solid white screen after the first couple lines of loading and hangs.
19:25:45furrywolfthe OOM error suggests something is leaking and/or causing major corruption.
19:25:51pamauryyou need to find a developer with a fuze for the USB problem
19:26:24furrywolfUSB behaves properly in 3.13, so it's a regression since then.

19:28:29furrywolfthe leak/corruption might be unrelated to the looping connect/disconnect issue... that is, it might leak every time the usb cable is connected, but the leak only runs it out of memory when it loops.

19:29:19furrywolfreally, the other fuze owner is also a wolf? :)
19:29:30pamaurythat might be a symptom of somethin, the fuzev1 is one of the target with the least amount of memory
19:30:00furrywolfspeaking of targets, there's nothing for an archos gen4, right?
19:30:33pamauryMihail (logs): can you have a look at this on the fuzev1 ?
19:31:14furrywolfsomeone gave me one with a bad hard drive, and I found out you can't replace the harddrive, as the stock firmware intentionally prevents you from doing so to force you to buy a more expensive model with a bigger drive, rather than diy-upgrade your current one.
19:32:12pamaurynot as far as I know, also those are really old right ?
19:32:34furrywolfyes
19:32:38duo8furrywolf you might be able to work around that somehow

21:39:53pamaurynot it's a valid filename
21:40:05pamaurymaybe a dosfsck bug
21:40:16pamaurynames with a starting . are not common on windows
21:41:34furrywolfI think I've found a half dozen bugs in dosfsck just trying to track down this one. but now it's moot, as I reformatted the flash and it seems to still have working stock firmware. heh.
21:42:07furrywolfmore than three letters after a dot breaks it. a trailing slash breaks it. and I'm not sure -d is actually implemented anywhere.
21:42:19furrywolfplus the multiple internal errors it's given trying to fsck it...
21:50:42furrywolfok, I've reinstalled the dev version onto a freshly formatted drive. what did you want me to check, and do I still need to rename the presumably new .cfg file?
21:53:26pamauryfurrywolf: basically reset all settings or simply remove/rename .rockbox/config.cfg
21:53:41pamauryso that you use the default settings
21:53:54bilguswell he did format so should be default
21:54:15pamauryyeah but maybe he copied the directory over from the old install
21:54:37bilgustrue
21:54:40furrywolfno, I use the automatic install tool, onto a fresh drive.
21:55:03pamauryok, then it's good then
21:55:07furrywolfso I should see if shuffle and/or usb behave differently?
21:55:21bilgusoh and while .rockbox is a valid FAT/FAT32 filename you can't create the directory on windows

22:01:59furrywolfway back, but works. so someone broke something that worked. :)
22:02:32pamauryit sounds like a memory problem, since he had an OOM panic screen before and the fuzev1 is very very tight on memory
22:04:19 Join [Saint] [0] (~sinner@rockbox/staff/saint)
22:04:24furrywolfit only OOM paniced after several disconnects and reconnects. it no longer seems to do that, likely because I don't have a playlist. I suspect it's failing to free the playlist somewhere, and recreating them until it runs out of ram.
22:04:38furrywolfthe disconnects and reconnects caused the oom issue, not the other way around.
22:06:06pamauryalso I'm pretty sure there were no major usb changes related to amsv1, the amsv1 usb driver has been stable for a long time

22:57:44furrywolfI'm creating a playlist now, since that made it do different things yesterday.
22:57:45pamauryso that points to a real usb driver issue then
22:58:17pamauryif you hold a button when plugging usb, the threads won't even be notified of the insertion
22:58:48pamauryme is lying a little bit but not too much
22:59:28furrywolfit gets to a different random point in the usb enumeration process
22:59:44 Quit diox (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
22:59:48furrywolfthe last time it managed to get the serial number before it stopped talking to it.
23:00
23:00:11bilgusdo you have another pc you could try this on?
23:00:27furrywolfnot easily
23:00:42bilguswhat about another OS?
23:00:44furrywolfI have another laptop that's burried under two snap-on modises and some tools...
23:00:47furrywolfno
23:01:24furrywolfI can plug it into one of the MODISes. is WinCE useful? :)
23:01:38bilguswas it ever :p
23:01:45Mihailfurrywolf: try this build http://knk.square7.ch/rb/rockbox-fuzev1-usb-0.zip
23:02:20furrywolfI can't reproduce the same looping it was doing yesterday... yesterday it would loop further each time, and try reloading the playlist each time, now the connect/disconnect loops are too fast for it to do that.
23:03:01CtcpIgnored 6 channel CTCP requests in 9 hours and 11 minutes at the last flood
23:03:01*bilgus kids I rather loved programming my wince GPS units
23:03:14furrywolfI guess I need to read the manual install steps... I've been using the pointyclicky tool.
23:03:44bilgusit literally does the same thing just copies to folder to the right place
23:03:58furrywolfwith the faster connect/disconnect cycling, it doesn't OOM, probably because it's not trying to load the playlist repeatedly and getting interrupted each time.
23:05:09furrywolfdownloading zip... so what do I do with it when it's done?
23:05:28Mihailunpack it to player
23:05:44furrywolfin root of internal flash?
23:05:49Mihailyes
23:05:50pamauryMihail: what does this build do ?
23:06:01furrywolfI'll need to remember how to unzip things... I haven't used a zip file in roughly forever. :P

23:12:03furrywolfheh, it's already the 20th where you are? we're all dreading when it's the 20th here...

23:13:15pamauryMihail: so your commit fix it makes it worse ? ;)
23:13:31Mihail:)
23:13:36furrywolfhow do I view that commit on the web git interface?

23:14:40pamaurya damn he was faster
23:15:08bilgusugh that commit fixed my clip+ usb
23:15:17furrywolfso non-interrupts version is simpler, faster, and buggier? :)
23:16:01pamaurywell it fixes usb on amsv2
23:16:07Mihailfurrywolf: try http://knk.square7.ch/rb/rockbox-fuzev1-usb-1.zip
23:16:38furrywolfhrmm, it changes from int to void... is something somewhere depending on that return value, and doing something undefined?
23:17:20furrywolfdownloading
23:18:08 Quit petur (Quit: Leaving)
23:19:20pamauryMihail: what is the relationship between usb and i2c/ascodec ?
23:19:56Mihailwe detect usb and charging through it
23:19:58pamauryis adc used to detect usb ?
23:21:08furrywolfdownloaded, unzipping
23:21:12furrywolfwhat does this version change?
23:22:56furrywolfthis one does not work.
23:23:07furrywolfit shows the usb graphic, but doesn't enumerate
23:24:51furrywolfand the second plug it just froze at the main menu, like the dev build
23:28:09pamauryMihail: isn't it a bit dangerous to call ascodec_read() in INT_AUDIO ?
23:28:46pamauryor does ascodec_lock() also disable interrupts ?
23:28:58 Join Massa [0] (4fcfe73f@gateway/web/freenode/ip.79.207.231.63)
23:29:11furrywolfand, to double check, went back to the -0 one, it still works correctly.
23:32:57 Quit n3m9 (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
23:33:39furrywolfprobably not relevant, since nothing seems to depend on the return value, but different targets declare readbytes as various void or int... just something I find annoying.
23:34:23Mihailpamaury: ascodec_read should work in any case (with or without interrupt)
23:35:16pamauryMihail: I mean, what if INT_AUDIO is called when ascodec is locked ?
23:35:23 Quit alexweissman (Remote host closed the connection)
23:37:44pamaurythe first thing ascodec_read() does is to call ascodec_lock()
23:37:48pamaurywhich locks a mutex
23:38:21 Quit bertrik (Quit: "This incident will be reported")
23:39:02Mihailit will wait until ascodec_read will be done, right?
23:41:22pamauryif you are in an interrupt, nothing else is running
23:42:08Mihailshit, you right :)
23:42:10pamaurythat's why you can't lock in an interrupt
23:42:32pamauryat best you could busy wait on i2c_busy
23:42:47pamaurybecause eventually the transfer will be done, but i2c is slow, that may take a while
23:42:56 Quit xorly (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)
23:43:14pamaurywhat is the purpose of INT_AUDIO ?
23:43:49pamaury(since it's obviously not related to audio :) )
23:44:20Mihailcharge and usb detect :)
23:44:44Mihailgood idea with i2c_busy - I try
23:46:16pamauryI only see three possibilities: busy polling (works but slow and makes interrupt very long), dedicated thread with signal (irq fires signal, thread wakes up and does the ascodec_read) or async read
23:46:41jhMikeSthe (proper) old i2c driver could initiate async reads or writes from an ISR
23:47:05jhMikeSthat shit change should be reverted imo
23:47:12furrywolfdon't poll in interrupts. eww.
23:47:37pamaurybut the old code breaks usb on amsv2 for unknown reasons so it's not great either
23:48:14furrywolf"Built-in WiFi allows you to access Kobo's eBook store which offers over 4 million eBooks" do not want. can I simply transfer files to it over usb?
23:48:17furrywolfgrr, wrong window
23:51:09bilgusbreaks is putting it nicely
23:52:33jhMikeSpamaury: how could it? usb did work
23:53:05pamauryjhMikeS: ask bilgus and Mihail, I don't know
23:53:30jhMikeSwith voltage scaling? that thing is sensitive to priority.
23:54:34bilgusPrior to that I could plug usb and 1/10 it got mounted after 20 mins or so
23:54:42MihailjhMikeS: you have solution to fix old code?
23:54:42jhMikeSI hope the driver doesn't mask all interrupts because they should be able to preempt lower priotity ones or you get audio problems
23:55:21jhMikeSMihail: I don't think the driver code itself is terribly at fault, if at all.
23:55:28bilgussince when do you get audio while usb is plugged?
23:55:43pamauryif you plug while holding a button
23:55:51jhMikeSMihail: I noticed v2 to be picky about the interrupt priority order when allowing interrupts during interrupts
23:55:52furrywolfif y
23:55:53pamaury(ie charging only)
23:56:03furrywolfbah, you typed faster. :)
23:56:21bilgusI'd call that charging though not usb
23:56:24pamauryinterrupt nesting can the tricky if you are not careful
23:56:35pamaurybilgus: but usb driver is up and running
23:56:44bilgusoh ic
23:56:45furrywolfinterrupt nesting can result in stack overflows very easily. :)
23:56:55jhMikeSbilgus: I meant about the operation of the driver in general. It can't mask interrupts altogether during an i2c transfer.
23:57:43jhMikeSfurrywolf: already calculated worst case for that. only > current priority preempts
23:58:38pamauryI think it's clear that commit c7daef36c5c75 has a huge problem, I think we should revert it and I find the real problem with the old code. It is possible that it, in fact, just hide the real problem
