Of course! Here the results and your prediction were right!
Cool, and yeah, i see other reports about cls/execute, just those for now not very important (but i noted them for later, of course).
Interesting thing which i found now, is another CFE bug (probably) which we hit now when Realtek card in : see the logs without, we have: IDE unit 0: ,etc at boot of CFE, while when we add realtek , then we have: SATA unit xxx: !
That mean than CFE, when we just add PCI device and enumeration changes, simple change the handler patch to IDE or to SATA , and i think its just another CFE bug where it simple goes wrong route or something. Because even if we have SATA unit ... in the boot log, we still can't use channel1, and we still in the same legacy ide emulation mode, so ..
I need to dig in in CFE disassembly again to see why there 2 different routes and how the differs at all.. For now, all i can say, is that when this IDE unit vs SATA unit in boot log appears , it simple swap IO ports. Like
Ports without Realtek (IDE unit: xxx in log): sata: BAR0: 0x1030, ide: BAR0: 0x1040 Ports with Realtek (SATA unit: xxxx in log): sata: BAR0: 0x1040, BAR0: 0x1030.
See, simple swap. So of course patch didn't work as i doing it over "IDE" legacy. It should be easy to fix, because it's anyway all "legacy". I simple didn't at moment why there at all different printf and port swap, because even if we have "Sata unit .xxx", like, it should works as SATA, CFE anyway can't deal with single hdd when it "slave", so mean it's the same IDE legacy emulation, just strange printf + port swap.
Need to dig in !

I removed PCI NIC card, but still I have two PCIe graphics cards and USB 3.0 controller connected. Still no success with other SATA.
See, in your output you also have SATA Unit: xxx instead of IDE Unit: xxx
So it seems same issue for you : you have more PCI cards added, some of which make CFE think that by some reason we switch from IDE to SATA whatever code path is it (will check that). While i am at it, can you also what card you need to remove (second PCIe graphics card, or usb controller, or both) , so CFE on boot will says "IDE unit: xxxx", and test if patch work then.
Thanks!

make sure to use the -fs argument. e.g. -fs=amigafs or -fatfs or -fs=ext2. Here on my system, even if "dir cf0:" works, loading the patches without the -fs argument does not.
Yes I has tried that. The issue is CFE is corrupting the file data. I haven't been able to run a batch script from USB for years. It's related to the buggy FAT driver. The common solution is to reformat as FAT16. The FAT32 code is corrupt somehow. I've formatted and repaired from Windows but CFE always breaks with FAT32. Maybe it cannot handle sticks over 4GB or something. I've mostly given up and use OS4 to copy files to a FFS volume where it can work from.
If you mean crashes "after some time" those yes, fixed by -noints, that disable timer for.
Yes, a real crash with a machine check exception or whatever it was. Unless you have a terminal attached, blink and you'll miss it. While CFE crashes and instantly reboots.
Quote:
But if you mean crashes like "can't run from amigafs" - then no, that not -noints, but make whole binary be flat, and without paging, because CFE can't do normal "seek" on the amigafs and because of that crashes. When i disable paging and make it all looks flat so no needs for seeking, crashes on running from amigafs gone.
I wonder if that FFS seek bug stops loading large files from FFS? For example, it was thought for years that Linux could not boot from FFS, because it broke somehow or just stalled. I did some digging and found out that Linux could boot from FFS, but the problem was the FFS loader has a size limitation. It was close to 16MB but could be around 14MB. Similar to the old UBoot. So Kickstart size would be limited by the same amount I imagine.
I thought it may have been because CFE mapped 16MB of RAM for itself and anything over broke it. But, when loading direct to other memory like 0x24000000 it shouldn't matter. Turned out that, unlike the rest of the Linux industry, the X1000 kernels were uncompressed so it was trying to load in a 30MB file on average. It couldn't cope with such a big file and would break. I tried compressing one and it worked.
But, I wonder why it needs to seek. If it's loading in a file it just needs to locate all the blocks from the file headers, then do a read block in sequence. But amigaboot.of does send a seek command before a read command when using OF API. So it cannot escape seeking.
Quote:
Some (like Sata one), simple patch the necessary function one time and remove own body. The others ones, like cmds and keycon make a hooks and sits in memory on functions of CFE which need to patch to make new functionality to work. Addresses itself used for everything (hooks, trampoline, data buffers, etc) all 0x7FC0xxxx, just differs so to not clash between patches.
Okay, that makes sense. So just below the 0x7CD00000 area amigaboot claims.
Quote:
Patch rescan them all and enable channel1 as well. Just seems there issue when more than 2 devices attached on the same time, i need do test it on my one with 3 and 4 hdds at same time for proper fixing.
Will run again and take notice of output. If it matters I also have an RTL8169 card in a PCI slot.

And then i give it a rest and added dma reads, result is unbelievable : modules loads in 0.336s, can you imagine that ? 8 seconds vs 0.3 second ! And that all after all those "we tried to speed up but we can't blablal", simple damn DMA and that all !
Was that a lot of work? I suppose the OF API doesn't have any commands for setting PIO or DMA? The default PIO0 mode would be on purpose for the safest boot option.
Quote:
CFE, despite the output it's found "32bit mode and use it" are lie, in reality it find and use 8 bit mode. And seeing disassembly whole CFE are hardcoded to use 8bit mode only. What it mean is : be it RadeonHD or RadeonRX, once you use 16bit or 32bit modes , it then all wrong resolutions and issues with colors. But at least i go till that point that RadeonRX show me the same as RadeonHD on 32bit mode:
I've read that and didn't really take notice because I knew it was always 8 bit. It says BPP is 8. 800x600 in my case. With 0x0340 per scan which means 832 bytes per line. So 800 bytes with some padding. 100 characters across.
I wondered why it is using a bitmap mode and not using a proper text mode? Bitmap is nice for logos but CFE is displaying text. Especially on terminal. Seemed they took the hard road to me. You've got hardware accelerated VGA text modes giving you a matrix like a C64. Instead they do it the hard way and need to write font rendering routines as if it was a Mac or Amiga with no text modes.
And then Linux always present the confusing double penguin sprite. Never seen it on a PC. Must be a PowerPC thing.
Can RadeonRX support 8 bit modes? So this is trouble all along? We were told it was because RX cards have a UEFI BIOS and didn't support the old VGABIOS in CFE or something like that. Or is it a combo of these issues? You couldn't have hacked a UEFI x86 emulator in there as well already?
I removed PCI NIC card, but still I have two PCIe graphics cards and USB 3.0 controller connected. Still no success with other SATA.
See, in your output you also have SATA Unit: xxx instead of IDE Unit: xxx

@Sailor Ok thanks, now all clear, i just hardcoded IDE barX addresses in hope they always the same on every x1000, but as we insert other PCI devices then enumeration happens, and CFE reassign them differently a bit : simple swap IO ports addresses.
And whole thing about SATA/IDE wording on boot, it's just harmless cosmetic : doesn't matter what it goes through the same IDE-legacy-emulation code, with only one difference that it detect by some bit how to printf (maybe they prepare for future updates which never come dunno).
Main point is that those things are dynamic, and i do it hardcore in hope CFE will not play games, but is it, so i had to take into account that IO ports of ide/sata can be swaped.
So...
@Tuvok, Sailor
Plz test new version in which i add detection of "swapped" IO, it still hardcore, but i very hope it will deal with any setup we had. If not, then i will be in needs to make something more mature:
There a lot added since first one, but before i put it to wild test it plz. What new is :
Quote:
- UDMA read! loading of modules 0.3s instead of 8s ! - Fixed the case when with new PCI cards added CFE swap the IO ports for IDE/SATA, to avoid patching wrong addresses. - Added proper versioning of added devices, theme:
SATA port 0 -> Channel 0 master -> ide0.0 SATA port 2 -> Channel 0 slave -> ide0.1 SATA port 1 -> Channel 1 master -> ide1.0 SATA port 3 -> Channel 1 slave -> ide1.1
- Added check so second run of patch will not add the same devices twice or more times. - Fixed CFE's description format bug in ide-emualtion probe function causing "0000" in IO fiels instead of actual data (i.e. when you do "show devices"). - Tested with bunch of different configurations : one hdd in any port/channel, 2 hdds in different channels/ports, single CDs, 2 CDs, mixed hdds and CD/CDs, with added PCI cards, without, etc,etc.
@Hypex Quote:
Was that a lot of work? I suppose the OF API doesn't have any commands for setting PIO or DMA? The default PIO0 mode would be on purpose for the safest boot option.
Those are only DMA reads (not writes) as that what we need from CFE : fast loading. And after i add dma to pa6t network driver, it wasn't issue.
Quote:
I wondered why it is using a bitmap mode and not using a proper text mode?
Probably why they choose to use not textmode in CFE but instead VGA/FB : drawing graphics, background, counter, initial "splay animation" and so on. With pure Text mode that no go, but yeah, they can do for pure typing text mode, and when animation/graphics come switch to other mode, but then this mean small pauses, switching modes, etc, so they just choice one single covering all. But hardcode it to 8 bit :)
Quote:
Can RadeonRX support 8 bit modes? So this is trouble all along?
RadeonRX have fully removed 8 bit modes hardware wise, so no more. And yeah, currently that the problem i fight with: need to patch quite a few drawing CFE functions, so instead of 8bpp they will do 32bpp if RadeonRX is detected, but as i have no source but only disasm/decompile by Ghidra, it's all hardcore..

We were told it was because RX cards have a UEFI BIOS and didn't support the old VGABIOS in CFE or something like that. Or is it a combo of these issues? You couldn't have hacked a UEFI x86 emulator in there as well already?
I simple dump the ROM of my RX car and yes, it do have atombios of course, but it also have standard x86 legacy VGABIOS too (with the same magic 0x55AA at top ROM), but then, even if it also have legacy bios, this one have different flow of commands, etc, so in some way that indeed was issue with "bios", but not because it's atom or not, but because legacy version of bios differs.
CFE simple check magic words at top of rom (0x55aa), if it found then it's legacy bios, let's execute it and go further to run X86EMU to executes this legacy code. For framebuffer/VBE there no needs for any additional stuff from atombios, so legacy one enough.
So why it freeze before if it legacy bios till ? Because it's have different legacy bios code .. And it wasn't freeze, it was end-less loop: Polaris's legacy bios turns off a clock that powers the GPU's PCI connection, and while on a normal PC, the PCI bridge says "oh, clock came back" and reconnects, on our only-amiga-make-it-possible, the PCI bridge says "it's gone" and never looks again => GPU is dead => we in loop. So i simple hook sys_outl (io write func) and monitor every write, and once find the one which use one of guilty registers force it back and clock stays alive : i.e one IF and one OR. All the other stuff untouched.
The problems i have right now : i want to speed up initialization and fix properly 8bit-to-32bit hooks.
In other words there maybe worth to patch to have 5 and 6 be 1900 and 2000 or something, just to avoid typing it all manually, but for while being it all can be added right in STARTUP, like:
set pmu -astate=a0; set astate 4 -speed=2000; set pmu -astate=a4; menu
Just wanted to share what I did to be able to use this and still be able to switch back to 1800 MHz easily (sometimes when testing I want to make sure some result is the same under both frequencies).
I set up the SPEED variable like above, except with 1800 as speed and then a second one I call SPEED2 with the 2000 like above. Then I can just change the STARTUP var to refer either to SPEED or to SPEED2, which is much shorter to type in at the CFE prompt.
Like so:
SPEED=set pmu -astate=a0; set astate 4 -speed=1800; set pmu -astate=a4
SPEED2=set pmu -astate=a0; set astate 4 -speed=2000; set pmu -astate=a4
STARTUP=SPEED2; menu
BTW, the names of the CFE vars seem to be case-sensitive, so if you define the variable as speed, you might have both a speed and a SPEED var. If necessary, remove one of them with e.g. "unsetvar speed".

@sailor When it works try to boot : modules will loads in 0.3s now :)
As for crashes with 2gfx cards , seems again enumeration take place but this time for dma ports (see BAR address differs when you with 2 cards).. Need to check on my own again.. Can you say how you use 2 graphics cards, i.e. which ones and in which slots they installed ? (so i will mimic it there as well)
@nbache, @kas1e (and @all) since my STARTUP was 'speed ; menu' I tried to set speed1 like you, extra1, extra2, extra3 with the three patches than I set STARTUP=extra1 ; extra2 ; extra3 ; speed1 ; menu but in this way something very strange happen, only the first one and the menu are executed so to have at least the sata, speed and menu executed i had to set STARTUP with explicit commands. Maybe since the first one and the menu are executed probabily it's possible to write the first one with the variable, the others in extended form and then the menu
@kas1e I have 2 PCI boards, an RTL8169 and a SCSI one, HDD on SATA port 1, HDD on SATA port 2, DVD on SATA port 3 and with the last sata_fix all compare in show devices, none with the first one.

previous version has also different ide x.y name mapping.
disks on Port 1 and Port 3 was with previous version ide1.0 and ide0.1 ( which is confusing, because there is also atapi0.1 ) disks on Port 1 and Port 3 is with newer version ide1.0 and ide1.1, which is correct, but unfortunatelly it not boots from ide1.1.

Those are only DMA reads (not writes) as that what we need from CFE : fast loading. And after i add dma to pa6t network driver, it wasn't issue.
Well, safest from the point of view of being the most basic mode. If there are issues with cable or UDMA mode breaks for some reason PIO0 is guaranteed to work.
For example, I've seen bizarre behavior where I've been running Linux and reboot to load up another Linux. The kernel can load up fine but when it boots and enables UDMA suddenly there are SATA errors. Like, I was just using it 5 minutes before with no problems, then reboot and suddenly the SATA bus is broken. By reboot I mean a clean shutdown and reboot from Linux. I can load up OS4 and it seems fine. In such a case having a basic working mode is good.

Probably why they choose to use not textmode in CFE but instead VGA/FB : drawing graphics, background, counter, initial "splay animation" and so on. With pure Text mode that no go, but yeah, they can do for pure typing text mode, and when animation/graphics come switch to other mode, but then this mean small pauses, switching modes, etc, so they just choice one single covering all. But hardcode it to 8 bit :)
Probably not worth even using matrix mode and redefining character set even if it would be faster. 8 bit should be fine since that is basic. More bits means more memory and slower updates.
Quote:
RadeonRX have fully removed 8 bit modes hardware wise, so no more. And yeah, currently that the problem i fight with: need to patch quite a few drawing CFE functions, so instead of 8bpp they will do 32bpp if RadeonRX is detected, but as i have no source but only disasm/decompile by Ghidra, it's all hardcore..
By now, since they have the source back, there should be no need for this. Enough time has passed. Should be a CFE update by now.
In summary non-VGA compatible VESA modes are unsupported. What makes it a VGA compatible mode? So, does this mean that 0x103 was once supported, but because it's still 8 bit it's now banned? The document is from 2014 so could be why my R7 250, which is newer than a HD 7000 listed, supports that VGA mode.
So if now all 8 bit modes are removed that makes it harder. This also means that no Amiga screen modes could be 8 bit either and running classic games will be crippled. An Amiga without 8 bit mode? Sacrilegious. Even so for a modern PC setup not being able to run Doom natively.
Surprised basic modes would be removed. 8 bit is like PIO. A basic primitive. Forcing 32 bit on BIOS screen seems overkill even if it's not called BIOS anymore. The VBIOS should handle character writes on screen so making 8 bit irrelevant if used as API. But, direct graphics will break regardless, unless that can be wrapped up in VBIOS calls and only if CFE uses them. 8 bit is reasonable to expect and efficient compared to 32 bit. But without it would need to be emulated. So a local palette needs loading without hardware palette support, character routines would be trivial but direct framebuffer access would need to be banned with only blit routines converting data.
At the end of the day some new acronyms needs to be used. In this case CFE needs to use UEFI GOP in CSM. Or as close too. It makes me wonder, don't the Sam and X5000 both support UEFI cards? Do they only use 32 bit mode or make use of some new acronyms?

So why it freeze before if it legacy bios till ? Because it's have different legacy bios code .. And it wasn't freeze, it was end-less loop: Polaris's legacy bios turns off a clock that powers the GPU's PCI connection, and while on a normal PC, the PCI bridge says "oh, clock came back" and reconnects, on our only-amiga-make-it-possible, the PCI bridge says "it's gone" and never looks again => GPU is dead => we in loop. So i simple hook sys_outl (io write func) and monitor every write, and once find the one which use one of guilty registers force it back and clock stays alive : i.e one IF and one OR. All the other stuff untouched.
Okay, it looked like one of those ones that works as expected on standard PC hardware. So on the X5000 and UBoot it would know about this then? Same for Sam UBoot. While not necessarily trivial that's a lot better than needing a full on x86 emulator replacement. So this almost looks like a slippery slope where the issues preventing it are compounded. But ones that are solved in other platforms so not a dead end yet.
Thanks for all the explanations.
An issue is needing to preload patch. Not so much as an issue on X5000 as it relies on loading firmware from SD card. So kind of like A1000 Kickstart where it needs some code to load it in or in hardware. Perhaps safest on CF card. While preloading from HDD/SDD would be fine, if something goes wrong and user has RX, he will be in the dark unless he's a tech head with a serial interface.
By now, since they have the source back, there should be no need for this. Enough time has passed. Should be a CFE update by now.
Don't hold the hope anyone will giving us sources of CFE, it in the Trevor's hand and it looks like better collecting dust :) And even if sources will be given to someone now, for sure not many will be in interest to work on, because releasing will be again forced to be someone's wish, and not developer's one.
So the only realistic way : patches in memory for test, then make a patched CFE binary so users can simple reflash and that all (that why i tried this CH341A way). Maybe i also will be in needs to add some basic support of X1000 to qemu, so to check things faster.. But that for later, once all major quirks gone.

Those patches-in-memory mostly test cases which i later want to add to one single patch, and then when all fine, make a patched real version of CFE, so users can reflash it (but that of course need to be tested and retested millions times, and firstly only by skilled ones, etc). And even then not everyone will be risky enough to do so in fear of having brick.

Did you enter the setenv command with the whole value string enclosed in quotes? Otherwise I'd imagine it would stop when it reached the first semicolon.
Hmm, but if you say that the menu command was also executed, maybe I'm guessing wrong.
I'm not using the other patches myself (yet), just the speed "hack".
