00:48:54rb-bluebotGerrit review #3627 at https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/3627 : playlist.c fix multitude of sins Invalid Control file on USB unplug? by William Wilgus
00:49:15_bilgusThat is an OLD very annoying bug
00:55:19_bilgusnow the issue is that it doesn't save position on USB plug which should be possible ..

08:18:20speachy_bilgus: I suspect g#3628 is responsible for a lot of user-experienced issues.
08:18:22rb-bluebotGerrit review #3628 at https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/3628 : tagcache.c Fix potential buffer overruns by William Wilgus
08:18:40speachywell, the underlying bugs, that is
08:20:46_bilgusThere are a few in there but I need to look really close at the way it brings in tag_length and instead of doing those flying checks ensure they are < bufsz
08:21:23_bilguswhich I think might be the case but I ran out of gas first
08:23:57_bilgushttps://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/3628/1/apps/tagcache.c#1483 <- probably supposed to be static wonder if we can share it with the others
08:24:27_bilgusor. probably covering up something bad
08:25:28_bilgushey the bug I was excited about g#3627 no more playlist control error on USB unplug AFAICT
08:25:29speachywhat's MAX_TAGLEN?
08:25:30rb-bluebotGerrit review #3627 at https://gerrit.rockbox.org/r/c/rockbox/+/3627 : playlist.c fix multitude of sins Invalid Control file on USB unplug? by William Wilgus
08:25:57speachymy gut feeling is that it's STATIC to avoid it going on the stack
08:26:15_bilgusthe rest of the functions put it on the stack
08:26:30_bilguswhich is why I was wondering if we could just share buffers
08:27:09_bilgusI think its larger than MAX_PATH
08:28:18_bilguswait AG_MAXLEN pr MAX_TAGLEN?
08:28:45speachyTAG_MAXLEN
08:29:02_bilgus#define TAG_MAXLEN (MAX_PATH*2)
08:29:13speachyMAX_PATH is 256 I think?
08:29:24_bilgusI was thinking 384
08:29:50speachy260
08:29:53_bilgus260
08:29:56_bilguslol
08:30:11_bilgusso around half a kb
08:30:22speachyget_next() is only called by tagcache_get_next() wich is an external API call
08:30:31_bilgusthats a lot to be putting on the stack too
08:30:36speachybut adding 520 bytes to random callers...
08:31:07speachyhuh, only used by plugins
08:31:12speachyspecifically only by the pictureflow
08:31:21speachywait, tagtree too
08:31:32_bilgusah
08:32:22speachyand the buffer is referenced by the cacheentry struct returned by get_next()
08:32:27speachyso it needs to not be on the stack
08:32:47_bilgusyeah I figured it was the reason
08:32:52speachytagcache.c L1651
08:32:54speachyL1561
08:33:21bertrikI personally start to worry a bit when a module I wrote is more than 1000 lines
08:33:24speachyL1544 too
08:34:02speachy_bilgus: you should add a comment to static char buf[] pointing out why it's static.
08:34:17speachythough tbh I'm not a fan of static arrays declared in a function vs making them true globals.
08:35:22_bilgusIf the data needs to persist though I either need to figure out lifetime or guard it as such
08:36:02speachythe other tagcache buf[]s are more ephemreal and probably can't be shared with that one.
08:36:10_bilgusI'd rather make it global and accessible by the rest with maybe a buflib pull in narrow circumstances
08:37:13_bilgusthat is my thoughts as well
08:37:26_bilgusotherwise it'd probably already be so
08:38:55_bilgusthe next thing will be that now the playlist stays intact through USB plug/unplug it is NOT storing the current index of the playlist
08:39:07_bilgus(other patch)
08:39:39_bilgusthere should be code that holds up the USB ACK till everyone states they are ready
08:40:57_bilgusI think there is already flushing code and even code to save the current playing index and file position (like qwhen you turn off the device)
08:41:18speachy_bilgus: doing that properly will require further restructuring of the USB code, IIRC
08:41:40speachyand would also make that crude menu-on-USB-insertion hack I did work a _lot_ more reliably.
08:41:42_bilguslikely the invalid control file error covered up the breaking of that
08:44:12_bilgusthe menu insertion needs some investigation
08:44:22_bilgusmenu on insertion
08:44:35speachymainly it's being done in the wrong context.
08:45:26speachybecuase we generate the actual USB_INSERTED event _after_ that decision point
08:46:21_bilgusah
08:46:52speachyinstead the event should get triggered immediately, which can then generate the prompt (or not, depending on config), and then ACK the stack to proceed with an orderly shutdown
08:47:20 Quit massiveH (Quit: Leaving)
08:47:39speachyIIRC this is due to the first couple of players (archos, iriver) having separate UMS chips
08:48:17speachyforcing us to kill the world IMMEDIATELY.
08:48:32speachy(and not using USB for charging)
08:48:47speachyyay for historical baggage
08:59:36_bilgusthat makes sense but I did think the whole ACK behavior was already a feature isn't that why we have to answer the USB_INSERT event?
09:00
09:00:12speachy...maybe? :)
09:01:08speachythe code effectively ACKs immediately if there are no immediate reasons not to (ie holding down SELECT or whatever)
09:01:10***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
09:02:13_bilgusmaybe some finesse will get us there but probably just a dark rabbit hole
09:02:19_bilguslol
09:02:21speachythat it is.
09:03:00speachyI recall going down deep enough to realize that fixing it owuld mean changing the API a bit
09:03:27speachywhich meant touching a lot of code
09:09:53speachyok, in usb_thread() instead of determining what to do upon USB_INSERTED we'd need to kick off an event to the UI, which should post a responsive event to the usb thread, which can then proceed.
09:10:00speachy(or not)
09:12:22speachywhere this gets messy is that some of our targets don't tell us of a USB insertion until we get a request from the host
09:12:53speachythis includes the sansas..
09:15:17speachyso making changes without causing regressions is going to suuuuuck
09:18:46speachyso those DETECT_BY_REQUEST targets completely bypass the SELECT-on-insert or menu prompt

21:21:34braewoodsi'll fix that up, moment.

21:24:05braewoods_bilgus: i'm planning to switch that over to the firmware inflate once it's done via the plugin API or so
21:24:17braewoodsso it's probably going to be removed, the inflate bits anyway

21:25:44braewoodsi haven't finished but i'm deriving the inflate engine from plan9
21:25:56braewoodsthe rest i'm taking from tinf

21:26:42braewoodsmind
21:26:45braewoodsfar easier to adapt
21:27:06braewoodsand pretty good performance for its size
