DryOS task and context structures

Are there any CHDK headers that have the layout of the task and context structures used by DryOS?  The chdk code that I see that overloads the dispatch hook just uses hard-coded offsets based on the pointer passed in.

Based on my work in reversing the 5D Mark 2 firmware, they look like this:
Code: (c) [Select]
struct context
{
        uint32_t                cpsr;
        uint32_t                r[13];
        uint32_t                lr;
        uint32_t                pc;
};

Code: (c) [Select]
struct task
{
        uint32_t                off_0x00;       // always 0?
        uint32_t                off_0x04;       // stack maybe?
        uint32_t                off_0x08;       // flags?
        void *                  entry;          // off 0x0c
        uint32_t                off_0x10;
        uint32_t                off_0x14;
        uint32_t                off_0x18;
        uint32_t                off_0x1c;
        uint32_t                off_0x20;
        char *                  name;           // off_0x24;
        uint32_t                off_0x28;
        uint32_t                off_0x2c;
        uint32_t                off_0x30;
        uint32_t                off_0x34;
        uint32_t                off_0x38;
        uint32_t                off_0x3c;
        uint32_t                off_0x40;
        uint32_t                off_0x44;
        uint32_t                off_0x48;
        struct context *        context;        // off 0x4C
        uint32_t                pad_1[12];
};

My dispatch hook looks like this:
Code: (c) [Select]
void
task_dispatch_hook(
        struct context **       context
)
{
        if( !context )
                return;

        // Determine the task address
        struct task * task =
                ((uint32_t)context) - offsetof(struct task, context);

        // Do nothing unless a new task is starting via the trampoile
        if( task->context->pc != (uint32_t) task_trampoline )
                return;

        // Try to replace the sound device task
        // The trampoline will run our entry point instead
        if( task->entry == (uint32_t) sound_dev_task )
                task->entry = (uint32_t) my_sound_dev_task;
}

hello,

on page 55 of this Canon document
http://www.canon.com/technology/pageview/pageview.html?page_num=
it is said that Dryos is based on/compliant with micro itron 4.0 RTOS

which specifications are here
http://www.ertl.jp/ITRON/SPEC/mitron4-e.html

and a compatible implementation (TOPPER/JSP) is here
http://www.toppers.jp/download.cgi/jsp-1.4.3.tar.gz

with source code and documentation

Lorenzo

I am the newest of the newbies. I have just followed the step-by-step progress from Beta to now in creating CHDK for the Canon SD880. Wow! and Thanks! to all who made this possible.
A month ago I loaded the appropriate CHDK for my Canon SD850. Should I expect similar happy results?
