#rockbox log for 2020-04-04

00:13:16 Quit lebellium (Quit: Leaving)
00:14:47cockroachI'm trying to setup a new sd card for my ipod but Rockbox refuses to boot from it. Apparently, because the cluster size is too large. Since I really don't know much (anything) about FAT, can anyone tell me why that would be a problem?

01:04:33cockroachhmm, is this really the right place for the secmult? https://github.com/mguentner/rockbox/blob/master/firmware/drivers/fat.c#L339
01:05:08cockroachthis makes the bpb_secperclus value needlessly large for file systems with 2048 bytes per sector
01:05:44cockroachwhich is why https://github.com/mguentner/rockbox/blob/master/firmware/drivers/fat.c#L627 says that the file system isn't sane
01:10:15cockroachor https://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=firmware/drivers/fat.c#l1129 and https://git.rockbox.org/?p=rockbox.git;a=blob;f=firmware/drivers/fat.c#l394 for more official (and less outdated) links

02:35:11speachyhmm..
02:38:27speachyat first glance that does seem wrong
02:40:43cockroachyay, so I'm not entirely wrong! :)

02:43:56 Quit PimpiN8 (Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
02:45:28speachylooks like all uses of that variable treat it as sectors per cluster too.
02:46:18speachyso get rid of that secmult and see what happens..
02:46:31cockroachif I simply remove it it won't work
02:46:49cockroachrockbox doesn't find any files
02:47:20cockroachbut if you agree that it looks wrong, I'll see if I can come up with something that *does* work
02:49:09speachySECTOR_SIZE seems hardcoded to 512
02:49:57cockroachso we'll probably have to multiply it somewhere else then to get to the right address
02:51:15speachyipod6g?
02:51:21cockroach5.5g
02:51:22speachythat has a hardcoded SECTOR_SIZE of 4K
02:51:34cockroachinteresting
02:51:47speachyas do many of the ipods
02:51:52speachyipodvideo is 2K.
02:52:18cockroachisn't the 5g an ipod video?
02:52:39speachyI'm very unfamiliar with this code
02:52:49cockroachheh
02:52:52speachyand mostly clueless on the ipod ecosystem
02:53:26speachywhat I think is happening is that secmult usually == 1
02:54:11cockroachmakes sense. that's why it usually works.
02:54:14speachybut on targets that have funky sector sizes, that calculation ends up wrong
02:54:33speachyand usually ends up in a situation where two bugs cancel each other out. :)
02:54:40speachy... but perhaps not always.
02:54:47cockroachheh yep
02:55:25cockroachI'll probably need to go over this with a piece of paper, it too many things-per-other-thing to keep in mind.
02:55:50cockroachthe good thing is that I probably have a particularly bad setup with this sd card, so if that one works, it should be reasonably safe

03:46:37speachysuccess! I _finally_ was able to build a working AGPTek Rocker bootloader + rockbox
03:46:47speachyincluding patching the flash binary
03:48:42speachyin the process I discovered my Rocker has had a loose screw inside it since I bought it. now the keypad feels much nicer..
03:51:24cockroachlol
03:52:49speachyunfortunately the image has to be extraced as root to maintain permissions/attributes. Otherwise when re-assembled it won't boot.
03:53:40CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
03:53:40*__builtin needs to get a Rocker
03:54:56speachythe sound quality is only so-so and the battery life kinda sucks..
03:55:20speachythough it doesn't feel as flimsy with all the internal screws reattached.
03:55:29***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
03:57:05speachynow to see if I can repeat this with the X3.
03:57:57speachysweet, the clip+ with a gcc4.9.4 build is working too. guess the flash yet lives.

16:12:07cockroachI've been looking into ways to really fix https://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/13194 but from what I understand, the FAT code would need quite an overhaul to deal with different sector sizes. Which is probably why the current way of dealing with it (that secmult hack) was made in the first place.

21:06:44bluebrotherspeachy: ok, that new mini2g version crashes on startup.
21:07:07bluebrotherundefined instruction at 0006fc18
21:07:36bluebrotherand something is off with the display, the text is cut off at both left and right border.
21:09:16speachyso.. it's worse. Heh.
21:09:43bluebrotherwell, at least it shows something other than the Rockbox logo at startup now :)
21:13:41bluebrotherIMO the patches to the compilers would be better somewhere like in tools/patches instead of downloading them from the website.
21:13:52bluebrotherso everything is in the same place
21:15:48speachyI just updated the mini2g build. Don't expect any functional change but I'd accidentally nuked the build dir with the debugging symbols
21:16:10speachyyeah, having the patches in the main repo makes sense.
21:18:33bluebrothersame URL as before? Then I'll try that once more.
21:18:41speachyyes please
21:23:53bluebrotherundefined instruction at 0006fc18
21:26:07speachythank you.
21:27:31speachywill look into that once I finish reworking rockboxdev.sh to pull patches locally
21:27:59bluebrothernice, thanks.
21:41:38speachytake five, and it's good.
21:45:05speachyI need to clean this up for commit, and then rebase the 4.9.4 patch on top.

21:57:23speachyokay, merged the "store toolchain patches locally" patch.
21:57:48speachyand g#2305 is rebased/updated.
21:57:50fs-bluebotGerrit review #2305 at http://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/2305 : Build: Bump all compilers to GCC 4.9.4 (WIP, do not merge) by Solomon Peachy

22:00:35speachyokay, that crash is in system_init
22:00:55speachy6fc18 udf #0
22:04:06bluebrothertime to build some toolchains now :)
22:04:36speachythis doesn't seem to be a toolchain "bug" so much as the compiler getting stricter about undefined behavior
22:05:27bluebrotherwouldn't be surprised about that :)
22:06:13speachythat UDF insertion (literally, "permanently undefined instruction") is deliberate and marked as WONTFIX by GCC.
22:10:28speachyyep, there it is, the end of system-pp502x.c:280
22:11:33speachywe're deliberately deferencing a null pointer
22:11:48bluebrothersounds like a good idea :)
22:12:36speachynow address 0 is valid, and we're just using it to fill the cache with valid data
22:14:45speachyokay, updated the zip with this fix.
22:15:00speachynow insted of reading it from DRAM we read it from IRAM.
22:15:47speachyactually, hang on a sec, let me change that
22:17:37speachyokay, now it's DRAM but starting at 1K instead of 0K

22:21:56speachyd'oh, screwed up again.
22:22:44speachyyet another version uploaded.
22:37:39speachythis particular bug was brought out due to using -Os
22:50:13bluebrothernice.
22:50:44bluebrotherok, that's the first version that successfully rolo's. Still doesn't boot.
22:51:01bluebrotherdata abort at 000756bc
22:52:15speachywhat's the joke, 99 bugs in the code, 99 bugs in the code, fix one down, recompile it around, 101 bugs in the code...
22:52:33bluebrothernah, that's 127 after fixing the 1st one ;-)
22:57:23speachythat's in lock_blocker_thread(), looks like the data abort is due to a bad 'struct blocker *' argument
22:57:43speachycould be something unaligned or a completely trashed pointer.
23:00
23:03:49speachyoh, for a proper stack trace..
