I'm not making much progress for Sx60hs stubs unless I have example signatures to compare to.
You really do need an annotated disassembly of the 101a version of the M3 firmware. When calls to the edmac functions are visible, it's quite easy to identify them by surrounding code, constants, and string references.

Yes. Exactly!  Is there a disassembler and associated stub finder (hopefully Linux) that can do this?

I did find a listing of stubs on the internet but it's not clear what firmware they're for, and even if I find the firmware, what starting address etc for disassembly.

capdis and finsig_thumb2 work fine

You can make an annotated disassembly using the examples on
http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Capdis_Disassembly_Tool#Disassembling_a_full_firmware_dump

If you want functions that aren't found by default to appear in the disassembly, you can add them to stubs_entry_2.S

Perhaps I misunderstand, but in order to find them for say the m3-101A, I have to already know where the entry points are before adding to stubs entry 2.S I don't think this would find the various Edmac functions that I don't have a signature already in finsig.  That's the problem.  I need them already found in some firmware as srsa_4c says.  And then it's a bit tedious, but, totally doable to find the ten or so addresses by hand.

Maybe I'm the one who misunderstood, I thought that the functions you were looking for had been found in M3 but not your camera.

Well a few were found for m3 as you can see above in this thread, and using that I could easily find them for my firmware (sx60hs 100f).  But I need several more: mostly various packmemxxxxxxxx functions which are used in Magic lantern lv_rec.c.
I'm wondering how the m3 functions above were found and how to expand on them.

You are probably looking for a way to enable raw image data in LiveView, correct?

In this case, I'm not sure lv_rec is the best place to start (as it's quite complex and I don't remember it ever working reliably) - but it did capture the first raw image.

I'd say the first steps are to understand how the current EDMAC transfers are used - besides the current status of EDMAC channels (I remember seeing some screenshots on PowerShots, just not sure where), you can try to log each pointer periodically (as it reads from or writes to the main memory). Something like this:

http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=18315.msg176347#msg176347

The graphs were created from logs saved with this code (log_edmac_usage):
https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/src/edmac/modules/edmac/edmac.c

On EOS, the raw stream in LiveView is always available from connection 0. Whether this connection is hardwired to deliver raw image data, or it's just the EOS software configuring the DIGIC that way, I have no idea.

Rather than porting lv_rec, it's probably best to port just the EDMAC_RAW_SLURP backend (which is basically raw_lv_vsync in raw.c and edmac_raw_slurp in edmac-memcpy.c). These two functions simply bring the raw data in a buffer in the main memory, and the raw recording modules just take it from there.

Then, you could look at mlv_lite, since it's a bit simpler.

Thanks @a1ex.  I'll look at what you suggest in more detail. mlv, as you suggest looks like it would be a very nice addition to CHDK modules. But it may be beyond my capabilities....there's a lot to understand in there.  :blink:

Maybe here, I was playing with @srsa_4c 's version of edmac_info.c.

The hardest part is getting the raw stream into the main RAM (two very short functions in raw.c and edmac-memcpy.c).

The rest is high-level code, most likely easy to port (maybe with some wrappers).

I have tried to find corresponding SX60HS/100f addresses, but I think perhaps some functions just are not present.  For example, I see in the M3/100a case, many strings with "safari", these are not present in my disassembly of 100f.

Probably with more effort I could find a few more...I don't know.
It sure would be nice to understand how to modify sigfinder. Is there a document on this? Or to create a sigfind util that takes one firmware found signature address, and uses that to find it in the target firmware.

    I see you have added additional bases...that's useful information for me.

IMO these bases no more needed. Now they use addresses from the structure. See "edmac_struct"
But the edmac_struct is not used in edmac_info.c as yet.
