#rockbox log for 2020-10-25

00:08:10_bilgus__looks like there isn't a direct ioctl call but maybe writing a new brightness level for the device however that works
00:08:41speachythe only direct ioctl is on vs off, which might not do anything to the backlight anyway.
00:09:16speachydon't think there's any way to avoid polling for power/usb/battery level though.
00:09:41speachywell, usb and power yes, but battery level no.
00:11:06speachyif we were using native threads this wouldn't be as big of a deal
00:17:48_bilgus__same as anything going through a translation layer I suppose

00:27:20speachyno.. we appear to the host os as a single thread, so any I/O blocks everything else.
00:34:05_bilgus__why can't we run a helper app to poll for us then?
00:34:37speachywe could, but that info has to get back to us. via a signal or shared memory
00:34:47speachyor a pipe I suppose too..
00:35:51speachyanyway. I did find two bugs in the ALSA driver but they're related to recording.
00:37:46_bilgus__I think it sounds quite plausible that the IO is hanging it but why it doesn't happen on the other targets ya got me there
00:39:00speachybecause tthe other targets are using native threading. :)
00:40:04_bilgus__ahh
00:40:25speachy(as in, our bare-metal kernel)
00:40:44speachyit's not fully preemptible but it does well enough
00:42:47_bilgus__got it sorry I'm not really up speed on the hosted side
00:44:13speachyneither was I until relatively recently. But I have the advantage of being pretty familiar with embedded linux hackery and my earliest F/OSS contributions were sound-related. :)

00:46:35speachylet's see how this box performs now. :D
00:49:09speachyanyway, I'm going to pack it in. if you do get a logf dump when that playback hang is triggered, please send it over
00:49:36speachy(as soon as it hangs, dump it immediately)
00:52:36_bilgus__will do I have it built I was just off fixing other stuff sorry didn't realize you were waiting on it

05:25:57lebellium6 months without noticing it :(
05:26:49lebelliumA few years earlier the Clip Zip was the most popular target, it would have been noticed immediately
05:36:22lebelliumPlus some icons like the 'Rockbox' icon don't match with the other sizes
05:37:40lebelliumFrom my point of view the icons should be the same across all sizes to get the same name "tango"

11:38:30_bilgus__the user that submitted them did rightfully argue that the tiny icons were very blurry
11:40:18_bilgus__but honestly IDC I spend maybe 30 mins a week actually looking at the screen
11:46:46lebelliumwell, if you use a theme with dark background, you would see the issue everytime you turn on the device so it's quite annoying for those
11:47:02lebelliumI'm using my own theme with a white background so the transparency issue isn't seen
11:48:10lebelliumcan you ask the user to add the necessary alpha channel?
11:50:29_bilgus__oh I'm sure he is nowhere to be found but ill put it on the list..
11:52:59lebelliumotherwise revert back to the older icons. I think the transparency is more important than debatable blurriness
12:00
12:00:03_bilgus__sounds good lets revert maybe that'll bring em backhuh so only one target even defines = LCD_FBSTRIDE(w, h)
12:00:28_bilgus__sorry second half different train of thought
12:01:17_bilgus__inly the mrobe 500 even defines LCD_STRIDEFORMAT
12:01:48_bilgus__I'm thinking this might the be the final wonkyness in 2 bit horizontal

12:23:12_bilgus__ok lebellium Its been reverted If you can test it after its done and make sure everything came out right
12:23:22lebelliumok
12:23:44lebelliummeanwhile I'm trying to add transparency myself with Photoshop Elements but it's a fail so far :D
12:23:47_bilgus__If he comes back I'll ask him to update otherwise oh well
12:24:30_bilgus__lebellium, I tried and failed too unfortunately its been dithered and it doesn't look right
12:25:06_bilgus__probably why they look less blurry than the old ones
12:29:42_bilgus__hmm so I failed to see that the LCD STRIDE vs PIXEL STRIDEare not related
12:30:06ArsenArsenhow does rockbox pick what partition to mount?
12:30:23_bilgus__that means I have 30 lines or so of conditionals that just will never ever get hit
12:30:26ArsenArsenbecause right now it's saying No partition found when there is a partition with a .rockbox directory on a mkfs.fat -F 32'd fat32 fs
12:30:56_bilgus__ArsenArsen, it just grabs the first valid one it finds IIRC
12:31:05ArsenArsen_bilgus__: define valid
12:31:24ArsenArsen"/dev/sdd1 * 16510 33554429 33537920 128G c W95 FAT32 (LBA)" -> definitely there
12:31:47speachyArsenArsen: what target, what version?
12:32:00_bilgus__but just because you think you formatted properly it means nothing unless it is perfect doing a reformat over exfat sometimes leaves dirty bits laying around
12:32:07ArsenArsenipod6g, dfae5d881d (I believe)
12:32:16ArsenArsenit's a fairly recent build
12:32:23speachywith an iflash card...
12:32:35ArsenArsenyes, but this worked before
12:33:02ArsenArsenonly started breaking down after I started trying to extend the rockbox partition to full size
12:33:05speachya while back (ie several months) the filesystem mount code was made more robust in the face of wonky partitioning/formatting
12:33:20_bilgus__as in this card worked last time you booted and today it doesn't?
12:34:02ArsenArsenno, it worked fine, now I removed the partition after sdd1, extended sdd1 and reformatted it with mkfs.fat, and unzipped my rockbox-backup-dfae5d881d-201019.zip (so that there is a .rockbox directory), and now it doesn't find a partition
12:34:09_bilgus__ah no linux is smart enoght to figure that out we are far less robust
12:34:34ArsenArsenlinux probably does have more robust routines yah but I haven't read eithers
12:35:32_bilgus__I can't tell you exactly where but I know its an issue

12:42:05ArsenArsenit happens after unplugging the usb cord in bootloader usb mode
12:42:09ArsenArsenI think that's what should happen

17:40:28speachydifferent things in different places, I should say

17:42:08braewoodsi'm reviewing how iriver_flash works and comparing the docs on how the flash chips work from source side
17:42:12braewoodsappears to be identical
17:42:23braewoodsonly real difference is probably timing

17:46:03braewoodshm...
17:46:15braewoodsanyway i can't find any issues with the waiting code...
17:46:16speachyArsenArsen: so, what's unknown at the moment is (1) if it's the bootloader or rockbox complaining about the partition info, (2) if it's rockbox, is it the partitioning or the filesystem
17:46:24braewoodsit seems longer than the actual datasheet
17:46:38speachyArsenArsen: if you rename .rockbox to something else, is there a different error?

17:49:22 Quit ungali (Quit: ungali)
17:51:18speachythere's always parted on the cmdline instead.
17:52:19speachybut if it works pre-resize, but fails post-resize, it follows that the resize is breaking something. But my original question still stands, is it the bootloader or the rockbox binary that's generatnig that error on the possibly-b0rked drive?
17:58:10ArsenArsenspeachy: no, I simply don't have a tool that can resize a FAT filesystem
17:58:22ArsenArsenI was screwing with the MBR when it failed

18:32:48AirwaveI run Rockbox development build on Agptek Rocker. After updating a few weeks ago the volume suddenly only goes down to -127dB, which is way too loud. It used to go all the way down to -400dB.
18:47:20speachy-400dB is a volume level that is vastly exceeded in deep space.
18:47:42ArsenArsen^ sounds kinda weird
18:47:57ArsenArsenisn't that below the hearing floor?
18:49:51speachyeven -127dB is below our hearing floor, requiring an anechoic chamber
18:50:34 Quit petur (Remote host closed the connection)
18:51:35AirwaveThe volume levels on my player now go from -127 dB to 0 dB
18:51:44speachybut back to the actual complaint −− I did re-scale the Rocker's volume, because it presented a value from -1020 -> 0, with a step size of 5. I got rid of the scaling.
18:52:18AirwaveI used to have it at around -225 dB before the update
18:52:36AirwaveNow -127 dB is the quietest and it's ear-bustingly loud
18:53:15speachygimme a few, brb
18:53:20AirwaveOkay
18:54:29AirwaveOh and if it matters it's actually a Benjie T6
18:54:58gevaertsThat sounds wrong... If -127dB is too loud, 0dB would mean the end of the world... I assume that's not that case :)
18:55:43AirwaveI could try 0 dB, but I'm afraid it would blow out my headphones
18:56:36AirwaveWhen I'm in the car I set it to 0 dB and use the car's volume adjuster instead.
18:57:19ArsenArsenI'm not 100% confident in this thing I did with mformat to be honest
18:58:37ArsenArsen255 heads, 60915712 sectors, 63 SPT, 3791 cylinders
18:58:50ArsenArsensounds very wrong, but I guess it's just emulation or something
18:59:15gevaertsIf 60915712 seems plausible. That's all that matters
18:59:27speachywith LBA, C/H/S is irrelevant
18:59:45gevaertsThat's 30GB if I'm not mistaken
18:59:53ArsenArsennot with 4096B sectors :)
19:00
19:00:07ArsenArsenspeachy: and yeah, I know, but FAT still contains that info
19:00:27gevaertsAh, then indeed not :) 240GB?
19:00:37ArsenArsenye that's about right
19:00:46ArsenArsena weird sector size, though
19:00:50ArsenArsenI do wonder what's up with that
19:00:54braewoodsspeachy: i noticed the coldfire code appears to search for ROM/RAM rockbox images regardless of platform at hard-coded locations... the H300 has more ROM space than these other ones do... should I just ignore the extra space? whatever I choose we'll be stuck with but 2MB has been enough up till now for the H100 series, which is the only thing that uses this
19:01:40speachythere's no need to ignore the extra space on the H300, indeed we'll need it due to larger resource requirements (ie color bitmaps)
19:02:10braewoodsas it stands the H100 effectively splits the ROM space in 2
19:02:18braewoodsnot exactly but close enough
19:02:40braewoodsH300 has twice the ROM space available so I was considering putting the ROM start location higher to allow for more expansion later
19:02:53braewoodsbut pondering what i'd need to do for the bootloader to support it
19:03:00braewoodshm
19:03:05braewoodsi'll poke around a bit more
19:03:58speachyAirwave: I think I missed part of the de-scaling. try this build: http://www.shaftnet.org/~pizza/rb-rocker.zip
19:04:20Airwavespeachy: Okay gimme a second
19:05:01speachyignore the "number" it shows, the important bit is the actual relative volume.
19:06:59braewoodsspeachy: see firmware/target/coldfire/crt0.S
19:07:05braewoodsi suspect it was intended to pull from
19:07:38speachybraewoods: no, generally speaking you can't move the start location, that's hardwired into the SoC.
19:07:54braewoodsbraewoods: i don't think you understand what i'm getting at
19:07:54speachyI mean, the CPU is going to start looking at a specific location regardless.
19:08:13braewoodsspeachy: FLASH_RAMIMAGE_ENTRY / FLASH_ROMIMAGE_ENTRY are where we store rockbox in ROM on the H100 series

19:09:32braewoodsthey're hard-coded. i think they were intended to use macros
19:09:50braewoodsto leverage the extra H300 space they need to be configurable
19:10:47speachyugh, there's leftover sh cruft in the rom.lds
19:11:32braewoodsso, do you think i can make the base address use a macro or so?
19:11:51braewoodsin case someone decides to try expanding this feature to non-iriver targets
19:12:00braewoodselse I can use #if defined for the iriver h300
19:12:07Airwavespeachy: Volume still goes from -127 dB to 0 dB, but I now noticed something new. If I go up, -122 is all of a sudden the lowest and it goes higher all the way up till -98, then at -97 it's super quiet again, then it resets again at -71 dB.
19:12:19braewoodsprobably best if i do that I think
19:12:34AirwaveNot sure if this was the case wit the build I was using before, I never tried increasing the volume above -127 dB then
19:13:07Airwavewith*
19:13:49braewoodseither way i think i'll be committing the first part of my work
19:13:52AirwaveNext reset is -46 dB
19:13:54braewoodslet's see
19:14:20AirwaveThen -23
19:15:18AirwaveThat's the last reset. Well at least now I have a workaround, I can get it low again by a little higher
19:15:49speachyAirwave: in other words, the hardware lies about the volume scale.
19:16:39AirwaveYeah guess so
19:17:41speachy(I wonder if we're better off just forcing the HW mixer to max and using SW mixer volume operation..)
19:17:54AirwaveOh and there's also this new bug recently where sometimes when I pause it, unpausing doesn't work (it just stays stuck at the same play position) and I have to reboot to get it playing again
19:19:17speachyyeah, that's just been reported yesterday
19:19:21speachythe reason is unclear
19:19:24braewoodsspeachy: https://gerrit.rockbox.org/#/c/rockbox/+/2897
19:19:33braewoodsone small change that should be simple to integrate
19:20:50AirwaveSeems to happen if I leave it paused until the display turns off before I unpause it again. If I play/pause while the display is still on it works fine.
19:23:59speachythe built I sent you has extra logging enabled, when it gets stuck, can you go into the system/debug/logf dispaly
19:24:06speachyonly interested in the last line
19:25:11Airwavespeachy: Oh and I just tested the volume thing with the latest development build vs. the build you sent. With latest dev it "resets" at -115 and then doesn't reset again. With your build it resets at -122, -97, -71, -46, and -23.
19:26:11Airwavespeachy: Sure, one moment
19:27:02Airwavespeachy: Do you want me to trigger the bug before I go in there, or just go there straight away?
19:27:12speachytrigger it first
19:27:20AirwaveOkay
19:29:06speachyif I set the volume on the cmdline properly, it works. something in our ALSA code is ... very wrong.

20:30:02speachyAirwave: with regards to the playback not resuming, in the settings, disable the backlight fading, and see if that mitigates things.
20:30:09Airwavespeachy: Sorry, I was away for a bit. Testing now.
20:33:05Airwavespeachy: Well first thing I noticed is that in settings, volume goes from -127 dB to 0 dB in .5 increments, but in the top bar it shows 10x that value.
20:33:43AirwaveSo if I e.g. set it to -124.5 in settings, the top bar says -1245
20:35:20AirwaveIt's still weird. Very loud at "minimum", then resets at at -115.0 dB.
20:35:36Airwave-115.0 dB is the only reset though
20:36:28speachyso there's still some overflow going on in the hw side of things. -115.0 is the true minoimum point?
20:36:38AirwaveYes
20:37:29Airwavespeachy: So turn off both "Backlight Fade In" and "Backlight Fade Out" to test the play/pause issue?
20:37:52speachyit's the fade in that I'm interested in

20:41:27speachyone more to try, it's building now.
20:41:37speachyplease retore the fade settings to default
20:42:05speachyI think I know what's going on now, but if correct, it points at a really stupid kernel bug.
20:42:09AirwaveWill do, I'll just remove that setting from config.cfg
20:42:40speachynew file, same place
20:43:00AirwaveOkay I'll test volume and play/pause, right?
20:43:12speachyyeah
20:43:26speachyvolume's unchanged, though it's capped at -115 now
20:43:34AirwaveOkay one minute
20:45:38speachyuploading another one.
20:45:47speachydone.
20:46:01speachythe other one would have resulted in no audio output at all
20:46:14AirwaveI was just about to type that!
20:46:57AirwaveOkay installing the latest
20:48:57Airwavespeachy: Volume is good with this one at least, no resets at all
20:49:31AirwavePlay/pause is good as well!
20:50:19AirwaveNice work, both issues fixed!
20:52:01AirwaveWell only kinda odd thing now is that the top bar shows 10x the dB value that the sound setting does, but that's no biggie
20:53:00speachyso.
20:53:18speachywhat's actualy happening is that the command to mute/unmute the codec is colliding with the backlight control.

20:53:51speachymy guess is they're both attached to i2c, and there's improper locking in the kernel drivers.
20:55:08AirwaveIs it the hardware that's to blame?
20:55:16speachywith the volume dialed up, is there a pop at initial startup?
20:55:34speachynot the hardware, the OEM Linux kernel.
20:56:30Airwavespeachy: I tried booting it now with volume set to max. I didn't hear a pop.
20:59:08braewoodsspeachy: https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/#/c/rockbox/+/2898/ next minor patch
21:00
21:00:20speachyAirwave: I'll have one more for you, and if that's good, I'll commit this. The wonky scale-on-top bug is purely a display problem, and should be easy to fix once I find where the offending bit of code is.
21:00:22braewoodsthere. i finished my patching to coldfire bootloader common code. it took awhile to figure out what it was doing.
21:00:40Airwavespeachy: Okay, let me know when it's ready
21:00:48speachyAirwave: is ready.
21:01:40Airwavespeachy: Installing now. What do you want me to test?
21:02:12speachymake sure playback works, pause, etc.

21:02:23AirwaveOkay
21:03:50Airwavespeachy: Yep everything working fine
21:04:14braewoodsspeachy: please review my patch sets when you get a chance. some of it was book-keeping to make it easier to work on H300.
21:04:43braewoods3 of them are pending
21:05:40speachylooks ok, but does that cover all coldfires?
21:06:04Airwavespeachy: Thanks for the great work on this. Loving Rockbox on this player!
21:06:07braewoodsspeachy: the last one sure does. why do you think i had to add extra macros?
21:06:23braewoodsspeachy: i modified all the coldfire targets to have the necessary macros
21:06:28braewoodsonly the iriver ones already had them

21:08:16braewoodsthough i did notice some of the bootloaders were failing to build due to missing LCD functions
21:08:20braewoodsnot sure what's going on there
21:08:25braewoodsbut not due to my changes
21:08:31speachyum.. so we're going to get some red, then.
21:08:41braewoodsyea.. i assume so.
21:08:55braewoodsbut i didn't change anything LCD related
21:09:07braewoodsiaudiom3 was one failure

21:09:17speachylet's see how it shakes out, and fix properly.
21:09:33braewoodserm
21:09:36braewoodshuh
21:09:40braewoodsi guess it was due to stale build
21:09:42braewoodsLOL
21:10:45braewoodsreally weird
21:10:57braewoodsi guess i should make a fresh build dir when i reconfigure
21:11:05braewoodsit's not happening now
21:11:25braewoodsanyway
21:11:26AirwaveOh by the way, is there any way to set USB to charge-only? When I use it in the car the power goes off and on when I turn the ignition, so it goes into USB disk mode unless I hold a button. Kinda annoying to have to remember to hold a button every time.
21:12:30AirwaveOr to get it to detect that it's plugged into a USB with power only/no data
21:12:53braewoodsanyway, it's time to start testing out the new iriver_flash
21:14:49AirwaveRight now this little patch is my best solution to the issue: https://paste.debian.net/1168695/

21:39:13braewoodsi expect that to be the last of it before I get around to testing iriver_flash and the bootloader
21:39:32braewoodseverything else seems to be in place
21:39:47braewoodsnow i need to generate a test bootloader
22:00
22:24:03braewoodswow. good thing i reviewed the source code prior to flashing.
22:25:05braewoodsgiven the existing code it would fail to erase the bootloader on the H300

23:17:19_bilgussure does look like it trapped error 7 at SP or hopefully PC mem address 32f800ee
23:17:54_bilgushave a look at the mapfile generated and search for 32f8 ish
23:37:16braewoods_bilgus: hm... i don't think i need to do that
23:37:31braewoodsiriver_flash disables the ... memory protection
23:37:50braewoods0x32f800ee is beyond the DRAM origin point
23:37:54braewoodsso it's not the flash region

23:38:39braewoodswhich is more RAM than this thing ha

23:38:58braewoodsso my best theory is its an error from attempting to go outside the confines of RAM

23:44:51braewoodshm.
23:44:57braewoodsi'm going to see if memcpy is working or not
23:45:05braewoodsthat's right before the first erase attempt
23:55:47_bilgusbraewoods, you need to alter the make file to generate a mapfile if it doesn't do it
23:56:35braewoods_bilgus: i've never done that before.
23:57:02_bilguseasiest to see what is going on is probably pictureflow in plugins
