07:00
07:01:38braewoods_bilgus: so how can i get my bootloader builds distributed to the official resource? speachy seemed to approve.
07:06:47_bilgusthe bootloaders (the generated .iriver not the completed scrambled bootloader) get added to the server and then the final link/scramble is done on the users computer
07:07:30_bilgusso they just need to b euploaded and hopefully the existing infra just runs with it
07:08:42speachytellme where to get 'em and I can put them in place. All I need are the bootloader-h???.bin files
07:08:51speachyis there an updated fwpatcher binary too?
07:10:09_bilgusI think they are hxxx.iriver you can't supply the .bin directly
07:10:28_bilguswell you can but we don't :p
07:10:51speachywhat's on the server: http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/iriver
07:11:20speachybootloader-h???.bin and H10_???.mi4
07:11:33_bilgussure enough
07:14:36braewoodsspeachy: basically, i put the...
07:14:48braewoodshttps://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IriverBoot
07:14:49braewoodsthem here
07:14:56braewoodsas zip files, contains the iriver one and the bin one
07:15:10braewoodsthey are identical, except one has a header and the otherdoesn't
07:15:13braewoodsthe payload is the same
07:15:33braewoodsi believe the website wants the raw .bin
07:15:53braewoodslet me check it to make sure
07:16:19braewoodsi think you can delete the fwpatcher? i think rbutil does that now
07:16:31fs-bluebot_Build Server message: Build round completed after 1151 seconds.
07:16:33fs-bluebot_Build Server message: Revision c79ddb6 result: All green
07:18:17braewoodsyep looks right
07:18:22braewoodsthe reset vector looks good
07:18:31braewoods00 1f 17 40
07:18:40braewoodsthe entry point of the first executed code
07:19:14braewoodsspeachy: do we really need an updated fwpatcher? those aren't useable on Linux.
07:20:14braewoodsnone of the other bootloader directories have it
07:20:38braewoodshm
07:21:20braewoodsok. i'll prepare a zip file of the renamed bootloaders.
07:22:10speachyI don't know if we need an updated fwpatcher, that's why I asked −− the one there is from 2006
07:22:25braewoodsyea
07:22:39braewoodsi'm pretty sure we can dump it... i don't see what use it would have nowadays.
07:22:46braewoodsrbutil is the one that does the patching now
07:22:49braewoodsi'm pretty sure of that
07:22:59braewoodslet me look
07:24:49_bilgusI'd find it odd if it were only available thru rbutil there is typicaLLY THE MANULA WAY AND THEN RBUTIL FOR END-USER
07:24:55_bilgusbah sorry
07:26:17braewoodsfwpatcher... seems to be for people doing the patching manually
07:26:21braewoodsbut it's windows only
07:26:23braewoodsso
07:26:38braewoodsand there's instructions for how to do the patching from some tools
07:27:07speachywe only provide windows binaries as we presume *nix users can compile it themselves
07:27:07braewoodshttps://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IriverBoot#Patching_the_iriver_firmware
07:27:16braewoodsit should still work
07:27:19braewoodsjust the same
07:27:26braewoodsso i don't see why we'd want to recompile
07:27:43braewoodsmain thing is we'd probably need to update rbutil with the new checksums
07:27:55braewoodssince the BL is changing
07:28:01_bilgusand therefore probably fw-patcher
07:28:10 Quit Stanley00 (Remote host closed the connection)
07:28:32braewoodsok good point
07:28:33speachyok, so google is now insisting that we "update the home page" to include a few things. problem is that gerrit doesn't let us modify that stuff.
07:28:47_bilguslol
07:29:05braewoodslet me double check that i renamed the bootloaders correctly
07:29:21 Join prof_wolfff [0] (~prof_wolf@148.red-83-49-157.dynamicip.rima-tde.net)
07:29:41speachyand the whole reason behind this crap is that the "home page" and the "authentication redirection page" aren't the same.
07:29:46_bilgusmaybe the latest gerrit would otherwise how can anyone use it now?
07:30:42speachywe've been coasting on autopilot on this stuff for the past... oh, 8 years? so their policies are undoubedly much tighter now.
07:32:16_bilgusyeah a lot has changed since then
07:32:34speachyspeaking of, did anyone do a sanity-check on the bare-bones privacy policy I pulled out of my posterior?
07:32:46braewoodsbraewoods.net/iriver-bootloaders.zip">https://braewoods.net/iriver-bootloaders.zip
07:32:46mendel_munkisyes. seems pretty good overall
07:33:01braewoodsthere we go.
07:33:04braewoodsrenamed and all
07:33:05braewoodsand checked
07:33:14braewoodsnow we need to update checksum
07:33:18mendel_munkismostly just common sense and stuff that's in other locations on the site :)
07:33:21braewoodsi'll take a look at that
07:34:39braewoodsoh joy
07:34:45braewoodsneed to make a new set of checksums
07:34:50*braewoods mumbles
07:35:09braewoodsit's compiled into git
07:35:12braewoodsso
07:35:21braewoodsok here we go... need to grab the original firmwares
07:35:23braewoodsfor all these
07:36:06_bilguswhere is this policy located?
07:36:13speachyhttps://www.rockbox.org/wiki/PrivacyPolicy
07:36:35speachy(I'm still adding links to the various site templates)
07:37:02mendel_munkisthe original xrick porter gave the go ahead to get the assets from his github repo. he just warned that it may put us in violation of githubs TOS.
07:37:28speachyus, or him?
07:37:38speachyI mean, there's nothing to stop anyone from hotlinking anything...
07:37:52mendel_munkishe said us. BUt I think it would be a bigger problem for him.
07:37:56speachyyeah
07:42:51braewoodsgimme a bit i'll need time to setup this mess
07:42:57braewoodsi need a copy of every supported FW first
07:43:10braewoodsdidn't realize how it worked before
07:43:19_bilgusmendel I assume the game assets come from an original version of the game is that still available?
07:43:35 Join MrZeus [0] (MrZeus@gateway/vpn/mullvad/mrzeus)
07:44:19_bilgusor more widespread I guess would be the better criterion
07:44:27speachy_bilgus: IIUC they're modified/extracted from the original
07:44:53_bilgusspeaking of that I saw someone had binaries on GH for DOOM
07:45:12_bilguswith embedded assets
07:45:52_bilgusif the original is available for end users to find we could give them a extraction script instead
07:46:21_bilgussame as we do with the fw basically

08:09:11speachyI remember playing it on DOS back in the day
08:09:16_bilguswell if its not easily available then that pretty much forces the issue
08:09:49mendel_munkisyeah there was a dos port. but the devs implied that it didn't sell very well

08:17:06speachyokay, another update.
08:19:31_bilgus_looks good wonder if we have any lawyers around
08:20:07braewoodsonly the armchair kind :}
08:29:25speachyaha! gerrit has minimal templating but it's good enough.
08:35:56_bilgus_awesome!
08:39:16speachy...but doesn't seem to be working.
08:42:13mendel_munkis_bilgus_: why did you get rid of rb->lcd_framebuffer again?
08:43:27_bilgus_for days of extra headaches?
08:48:24speachy... okay, the templating only seems to work in the old ui. WTF.
08:48:29_bilgus_I have several different goals with all this first is to allow any framebuffer + stride to be used with the inbuilt graphics functions
08:49:48_bilgus_upon getting into the FB stuff I realized this would require a way to specify and store the FB for a particular viewport
08:50:35mendel_munkisI do get it. I am just frustrated from trying to use a framebuffer in multiple files.
08:50:46mendel_munkis*framebuffer pointer
08:50:57_bilgus_unfortunately the old way of a common framebuffer pretty much makes this impossible since everyone and their brother access the framebuffer stick their fingers in it and typically don't clean up their mess
08:51:24_bilgus_so now we have an API and it'll get more strict as time goes by
08:51:40mendel_munkiswhich reminds me. I should probably switch to a smaller framebuffer eventually
08:52:17_bilgus_mendel the viewport_test file should show a decent way of doing that
08:53:21_bilgus_basically you create a viewport with a static buffer in one file and just pass the VP around or set it in the defining file and copy it once you get to the other ones
08:54:04mendel_munkisYeah I figured out how to eventually. I just had a bunch of segfaults first :)
08:55:32_bilgus_I almost put in some stuff for checking the validity of the buffer do you think I should when debug is active?
08:56:07_bilgus_the seg faults are actually a feature believe it or not
08:56:12mendel_munkiswell the problem was mostly me not remembering how C memory works.
08:56:43mendel_munkisso the segfaulting was enough to tell me I screwed up some memory somewhere.
08:57:02_bilgus_fail early
08:57:36mendel_munkisI failed so early the DEBUGF in plugin_start didn't trigger
08:57:38_bilgus_I suspect there are a few more bugs that will pop out due to a number of recent changes
08:58:23_bilgus_so maybe some extra checks when debug is enabled?
08:58:56_bilgus_figure it'll still be a panic but it might help highligh issues
08:59:18mendel_munkisI've got no issues with more debugging information.
08:59:55_bilgus_k so we can do a NULL pointer check and maybe a sanity check based on the location of the buffer
09:00
09:00:35_bilgus_like is it beyond the bounds of known user memory
09:02:22speachyokay! polygerrit template fixed.
09:06:03braewoods_bilgus_: can you quickly review g#3025? it fixes some bugs in fwpatcher.

09:25:00speachynope, as long as the history is in gerrit somewhere
09:26:00mendel_munkisI cant find it in gerrit. I don't know if it ever made it there.
09:26:01speachyit's more important from a legal/attribution perspective; my attitude towards patches is that only the final one merged matters; I don't care about the previous 83 revisions it took to get into a mergeable state..

09:40:07braewoodshm
09:40:46braewoodsspeachy: i found a problem.
09:40:56braewoodswith the mkboot code perhaps?
09:41:08braewoodsor maybe it's the validation of scramble at fault
09:41:10braewoodsbut
09:41:22braewoodsif i try to embed a BL above around 55k or so
09:41:38braewoodsit fails validation. the check that fails is the one about maximum rom size
09:41:54braewoodsi know these work, so what's going on?
09:41:56mendel_munkisTo me CoC means only be a jerk in ways we haven't thought of
09:43:01braewoodshm.
09:43:09braewoodsi need to investigate the documentation of this.
09:43:22speachymendel_munkis: Aye.
09:43:24braewoodsit's possible the validation is off.
09:43:27_bilgus_braewoods, what datatype is the size held in overflow at 64 k?
09:43:51braewoods_bilgus_: you mean.. the actual numbers?
09:43:57_bilgus_yes
09:45:04_bilgus_uint16t overflows at 64k
09:45:06braewoods_bilgus_: https://dpaste.com/5ER4ADB4J
09:45:13braewoodsit happens even below that
09:45:27braewoodsthe original failing BL is 57k
09:45:42braewoodsbut i noticed it seems to be for any above a certain size
09:45:57braewoodsi'm not sure the exact amount but it'd be whatever puts it over the raw flash_size
09:46:06braewoodsi think the math in the validation is wrong since the
09:46:09braewoodssize is
09:46:23gevaertsWe do have various sets of rules, such as https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IrcGuidelines. Making sure we know which ones are there already would be a good start I think :) And then possibly making sure rules are consistent between the various channels (irc, mail, forums, ...)
09:46:24braewoodsequal to the total file size
09:46:46braewoodsand the check is for the raw flash size
09:46:59speachygevaerts: I don't think we have anything formally written down other than the IRC stuff
09:47:48gevaertsAnd yes, a CoC that *just* lists specific points is useless. "Don't be an asshole" or "Demonstrate common courtesy to people" (as the irc guidelines phrase it) should close most loopholes though
09:48:19speachyof course now I'm reminded of the SpaceBalls "Major Asshole" bit
09:50:10gevaertsAs usual my position here is "I'm not active, so don't listen to me", but in my opinion a CoC that doesn't try to be too specific but clarifies general attitude and intent is a good idea
09:50:59_bilgus_braewoods, I think in iriver.c ln 324 that should probably be expanded to tell which check failed
09:51:14braewoods_bilgus_: probably. but one thing at a time.
09:51:32braewoodsthere's an error in these programs somewhere
09:51:35braewoodsnot sure who is at fault
09:52:01braewoodsit's either mkboot or scramble or both
09:52:11braewoodsi'm going to look at mkboot first
09:52:24braewoodssee why it fails closer to max but works fine at smaller amounts
09:53:34braewoods... well that's no good

10:50:24braewoods_bilgus_: i found the problem.
10:50:41braewoods_bilgus_: there's nothing wrong that i can tell with mkboot... but iriver.c validates it wrong.
10:50:47braewoodsthough i did find one issue with mkboot
10:50:57_bilgus_left handed math?
10:51:24braewoodsthe first 3 32 bit integers of the header...
10:51:33braewoodsthe first is the total binary file size.. everything included
10:51:43braewoodsthis includes the raw image, the headers, the checksum blocks, etc
10:51:51braewoodsso of course a file near max flash size will fail it
10:52:03braewoodsthis is the one that mkboot uses
10:52:05braewoodsfor that check
10:52:19braewoodsthe second is the total binary length with some header
10:52:22_bilgus_ah even though it just uses portions
10:52:25braewoodsit's the best candidate to use as it is the closest
10:52:46braewoodsit's the actual rom image length + a 32 byte header
10:52:51braewoodsrounded up to the next 512 byte
10:52:53braewoodsboundary
10:53:01braewoodsso
10:53:06braewoodsthe max file size is actually
10:53:09_bilgus_ah ok yeah the rounded up part fixes my concern
10:53:10braewoods0x400200
10:53:19braewoodsfor the payload
10:53:24braewoodsor 0x200200
10:54:10braewoodsthere is one issue with
10:54:12_bilgus_well assumin the flash is in 512b blocks or less
10:54:13braewoodsmkboot though
10:54:29braewoods_bilgus_: that's how it was setup all this time so i assume it is still true
10:54:49braewoodsonly one way to find out though
10:54:49_bilgus_it seems a moderately safe assumption
10:55:10braewoodsthe other issue is the mkboot didn't reserve enough space to handle this situation
10:55:14braewoodsi found it is about 500 bytes short
10:55:24braewoodsbut that's the only flaw i found
10:55:28braewoodsi'll correct both
10:55:49braewoodssec
10:55:49_bilgus_well being that they never tested that situation its little wonder
10:56:16braewoodswell i wanted to be sure it can handle the maximum bootloader that should fit at the end of the flash
10:56:31braewoodsi ran into this with a 57k bootloader
10:56:53braewoodsok let me do something else

11:17:13braewoodshm on second thought
11:17:39braewoodslet me check if i can check the actual length directly for better accuracy
11:19:11_bilgus_so is iriver.c the same in tools and in fwpatcher?
11:19:28braewoods_bilgus_: no idea. at one point they probably were but the other one is definitely much older

12:10:24braewoodswip.
12:10:33braewoodsi've got an idea.
12:10:40braewoodsthe actual length is recorded
12:10:51braewoodsin a header in the raw data
12:10:53braewoodsso
12:10:58braewoodsthat's what i should check for max accuracy
12:11:05braewoodstrouble is it's in the encrypted or decrypted stream
12:11:17braewoodsso i need to inject myself into the stream
12:11:18braewoodsto check it

12:33:16braewoods_bilgus_: it's ready for review again
12:35:13braewoodsbasically i decided to hook into the read/write loops and just copy the length when it came across the chunk that had it
12:35:16_bilgus_those magic numbers can you place notes or make them defines in mkboot.c please?

12:43:30braewoodsline 36 and 38
12:43:39braewoodsand i found an issue already.
12:43:59braewoodsi don't know where the length is during the decode pass
12:44:02braewoodsonly during encode so far
12:44:45braewoodsugh.
12:44:56braewoodsya know, i'll come back to this issue and just focus on the mkboot one for the moment
12:44:59wodzre coldfire targets: I have MPIO HD200 in semiworking condition (usb bridge doesn't work) and MPIO HD300 which used to work but last time I tried it refused to boot. Anyway debugging bootloaders is pretty easy - you just need BDM pod. gevaerts has mine AFAIK.
12:45:33braewoodswodz: eh? kinda late. we've already past that point.
12:45:45_bilgus_ok I gtg now but I will be back in 6 ish hrs
12:46:42braewoodsi just keep finding crap that needs patching before i can even update the firmware... thank you whoever wrote this. :>

13:34:13lebelliumand regarding the 1.31K firmware, it was my request to support it a few years ago because I really wanted the latest OF version with games aside Rockbox, but I don't remember who did it and how
13:34:44braewoodslebellium: don't mind it, i'm just patching up loose ends
13:34:50braewoodsi still can't release it just yet
13:35:09braewoodsthe tools used for installation still got a few bugs to fix
13:37:36braewoodslebellium: what was the issue you were having?
13:38:06lebelliumWhen starting the device with the remote the bootloader said the hold switch was ON while it wasn'y
13:38:47braewoodsoh
13:38:52braewoodsthat was fixed ages ago
13:38:59braewoodsaccording to the notes
13:39:38lebelliumyes but I used the bootloader v5 from 2006 I guess

16:30:19speachyI think rbutil integrates fwpatcher too, need to make sure that still builds properly
