Well, this is becoming almost unbearable... Is your f/w 1.00c, with the dump 20100817-IXUS130-PRIMARY.BIN linked here?

If so, then the relevant disasm looks as follows:

Hmm this is interesting, that is the right dump, but what I have is:

Code: [Select]
ff81012c:       e5821000        str     r1, [r2]
ff810130:       e59f004c        ldr     r0, [pc, #76]   ; ff810184: (ffbf837c)
ff810134:       e59f104c        ldr     r1, [pc, #76]   ; ff810188: (00001900)
ff810138:       e59f304c        ldr     r3, [pc, #76]   ; ff81018c: (0000ebd0)
ff81013c:       e1510003        cmp     r1, r3
ff810140:       34902004        ldrcc   r2, [r0], #4
ff810144:       34812004        strcc   r2, [r1], #4
ff810148:       3afffffb        bcc     ff81013c
ff81014c:       e59f103c        ldr     r1, [pc, #60]   ; ff810190: (0014fe20)
ff810150:       e3a02000        mov     r2, #0  ; 0x0
ff810154:       e1530001        cmp     r3, r1
ff810158:       34832004        strcc   r2, [r3], #4
ff81015c:       3afffffc        bcc     ff810154
ff810160:       ea00007b        b       ff810354

I've now downloaded the dump again and regenerated the disassembly: it seems somehow I had the wrong dump file. I don't know how that happened, but it explains everything! Thanks for the help.

I'm relieved that problem seems to be solved at last. Hopefully with the correct file things will start going a bit better :-)

EDIT: boot() now works properly, I am going through the rest of boot.c now.

EDIT2: boot.c is getting closer, the spytask crashes, but that's expected as I haven't yet done much with the stubs_entry files (and what I had done was from the wrong dump file...), so the next task is looking up function addresses.

I have now found most of the addresses for the stubs_* files, but the spytask is still crashing (in fact it doesn't really crash, it just switches the camera off).

It happens in core_spytask() -> conf_restore() -> conf_load_defaults() -> conf_change_script_file() -> script_load(conf.script_file, 2):
Code: [Select]
void script_load(const char *fn, int saved_params) {
    ...
    if (state_ubasic_script && state_ubasic_script != ubasic_script_default) {
      free(state_ubasic_script); // <--- this crashes
    }

    state_ubasic_script = ubasic_script_default;
    update_vars = (strcmp(fn, conf.script_file) != 0) || !saved_params || (saved_params == 2);  // update if new file
    if (!fn[0]) { // load internal script
        if (!conf.script_file[0]) { // internal script was used last time
            fd = fopen(SCRIPT_DEFAULT_FILENAME, "rb");
            if (fd) {
                fn = SCRIPT_DEFAULT_FILENAME;
                update_vars = 1;
            }
        }
    } else {
        fd = fopen(fn, "rb"); // <--- this crashes
        return;//***
        if (!fd) {
            conf.script_file[0]=0;
            update_vars = 1;
        }
    }
The call to free (marked with <---) crashes, even though state_ubasic_script should be initialized to NULL, so it shouldn't get called. I checked the addresses for any functions containing 'free' or 'alloc' in the name but couldn't find any obvious errors, so I commented out this line temporarily.
Then the fopen (also marked with <---) crashed, even though that branch of the 'if' should not execute, as fn (=conf.script_file) should be initialised to an empty string.
I wanted to blink out the values of these variables, but the LEDs are not working from within the spytask (I found the crash points by returning early from the function and seeing if the camera crashed). It seems that immediately after msleep is called, the LEDs no longer work:

Code: [Select]
void core_spytask()
{
    int cnt = 1;
    int i=0;

    raw_need_postprocess = 0;

    spytask_can_start=0;

    led_flash(LED_RED, 1); // <--- flashes
    while((i++<400) && !spytask_can_start) msleep(10);
    led_flash(LED_RED, 2); // <--- does not flash

    started();
    msleep(50);
    finished();
    drv_self_unhide();
    ...

The led_flash function takes an LED address and a number, and flashes the LED that number of times, and the LED should also be switched on by started() and off by finished(). I see just one flash (or none if I comment out the first led_flash call), but the execution does continue as I can prevent it crashing by returning early.

I will continue trying to work out what's going on, but if anyone has any ideas I would be happy to hear them.

EDIT: I should add that msleep just calls SleepTask, and I have verified that SleepTask has the correct address.

Just a quick status update:

I still don't understand why the LED is not working in the spytask after the msleep call, but I'll leave that for later.

The problem with the local variables having the wrong value, I thought must be caused by something like stack corruption in a previous function call. So I checked all my function addresses, and fixed a few that were wrong, but it didn't help.
Then I found in conf.c, the lines:
Code: [Select]
   CONF_INFO( 38, conf.reader_file,            CONF_DEF_PTR,   ptr:"A/README.TXT", conf_change_script_file),
...
    CONF_INFO(194, conf.script_file,            CONF_DEF_PTR,   ptr:"", conf_change_script_file),

Where conf_change_script_file is:
Code: [Select]
static void conf_change_script_file() {
  script_load(conf.script_file, 2);
}

I think the first reference to conf_change_script_file is a bug, as it accesses conf.script_file before it has been set by the second one, causing undefined behaviour.
I replaced it with NULL, and now it is crashing in rbf_load_from_8x16 (pasted below for reference), in the first for loop. I commented out the call to free, and then it no longer crashes, but I don't understand why, as I think need_free should be 0 here, so the free shouldn't be called anyway...
Code: [Select]
void rbf_load_from_8x16(unsigned char font[256][16]) {
    int i, c, b;

    rbf_font.charSize  = 16;
    rbf_font.height    = 16;
    rbf_font.maxWidth  = 8;
    rbf_font.charFirst = 0;
    rbf_font.charLast  = 255;

    rbf_font.width = 8 * rbf_font.charSize / rbf_font.height;
    rbf_font.charCount = rbf_font.charLast - rbf_font.charFirst + 1;

    for (i=0; i<256; ++i) {
        rbf_font.wTable[i]=8;
        if (need_free && rbf_font.cTable[i]) {
          free(rbf_font.cTable[i]); // <--- here
        }
        rbf_font.cTable[i]=NULL;
    }
    need_free = 0;
    return; // early return for debugging
    for (i=0; i<256; ++i) {
        rbf_assign_char_8x16(&rbf_font.cTable[i], (char*)font[i], rbf_font.height);
    }
    need_free = 1;
}

I've dumped the romlog, and this is what gets logged when it crashes:

I'm not sure what the "Exception!! Vector 0x10" means. I assume the 17 values after "Exc Registers" are r0-r15 and maybe the CPSR, in which case the penultimate one is the PC, and the address 0xFF814178 is in the "free" function:
Code: [Select]
loc_ff81415c: ; 14 refs
ff81415c: e92d4070 push {r4, r5, r6, lr}
ff814160: e1b04000 movs r4, r0
ff814164: 08bd8070 popeq {r4, r5, r6, pc}
ff814168: e3a01000 mov r1, #0 ; 0x0
ff81416c: e59f5020 ldr r5, [pc, #32] ; ff814194: (0000f504)
ff814170: e5950024 ldr r0, [r5, #36]
ff814174: ebfffabb bl loc_ff812c68
ff814178: e5140008 ldr r0, [r4, #-8]
ff81417c: e5901000 ldr r1, [r0]
ff814180: e2850000 add r0, r5, #0 ; 0x0
ff814184: eb001378 bl loc_ff818f6c
ff814188: e5950024 ldr r0, [r5, #36]
ff81418c: e8bd4070 pop {r4, r5, r6, lr}
ff814190: eafffaa7 b loc_ff812c34
ff814194: 0000f504 andeq pc, r0, r4, lsl #10

I'm reasonably sure I have the right address for free, it is found by finsig with a 91% match, and comparing with the ixus300 and the sx210is it is virtually identical, and to the ixus95 it is a bit different but looks functionally very similar.

The previous register would then be the LR (0xFF812CC8), which points into the following function:
Code: [Select]
loc_ff812c68: ; 113 refs
ff812c68: e92d4070 push {r4, r5, r6, lr}
ff812c6c: e1a05001 mov r5, r1

ff812cc8: e121f004 msr CPSR_c, r4
ff812ccc: e8bd8070 pop {r4, r5, r6, pc}

But I haven't worked out what it does (other than I think disabling and reenabling interrupts in the second part).

Is there more information I can extract from the log? What does the part after "*** Camera Log Start ***" mean?

If it's in free, it could be freeing garbage.

Exception vector 0x10 is Data Abort, which probably means trying to access a nonsense address (not configured to be readable/writable in the MPU setup, meaning not in the regions set aside for RAM, MMIO or ROM) See "ARM Architecture Reference Manual"

It looks r4 is 0x1B2C4610 so that instruction would be trying to load 0x1B2C4610-8 which looks like an invalid address to me. If you can figure out where that value comes from, it might give you a hint.

Camera log is recent camera activity. Note that it's in chronological order from top to bottom (the numbers are timestamps)

The stack dump may also give you some clues.

Thanks for the hints. There seems to be some sort of memory corruption happening, earlier I was also seeing execution take the "wrong" branch in some conditionals. Maybe it could also explain why the LEDs seem to stop working, but at that point I think the only Canon functions that have been called are CreateTask and SleepTask, and I am pretty sure I have the right addresses for them.
I don't know what all the parameters to CreateTask mean, I just copied them from another camera:
Code: [Select]
_CreateTask("SpyTask", 0x19, 0x2000, core_spytask, 0);
Could any of them cause a problem?
I have also disabled as much code as possible in boot.c to try and track down the problem, so I currently don't load the task hook, and just kept what was needed to start the spytask. It didn't look like any of that was needed to at least get the spytask running without crashing, but maybe I'm wrong?

Thanks for the hints. There seems to be some sort of memory corruption happening, earlier I was also seeing execution take the "wrong" branch in some conditionals. Maybe it could also explain why the LEDs seem to stop working, but at that point I think the only Canon functions that have been called are CreateTask and SleepTask, and I am pretty sure I have the right addresses for them.
I don't know what all the parameters to CreateTask mean, I just copied them from another camera:
Code: [Select]
_CreateTask("SpyTask", 0x19, 0x2000, core_spytask, 0);
Could any of them cause a problem?
I have also disabled as much code as possible in boot.c to try and track down the problem, so I currently don't load the task hook, and just kept what was needed to start the spytask. It didn't look like any of that was needed to at least get the spytask running without crashing, but maybe I'm wrong?
This shouldn't vary between cameras of the same OS. If they did change in some revision of dryos, you'd be able to see it in the creation of canon tasks. The arguments are something like name, priority, stack size, entry point, not sure what the zero is.

If you somehow didn't get the CHDK bss initialized (platform/<camera>/main.c startup) that would make your globals not actually start zeroed, which would be a problem. Hard to see why you would do that though. It could also happen if you got the size/address wrong, but again I don't see why that would happen unless you've done something very weird.

If you got CHDK loading addresses wrong, or didn't put new_sa in the right place you might get issues like this.

Your camera should be very similar to cameras of the same generation (dryos R43), and most of this stuff is the same on older dryos cameras as well. You shouldn't have to do anything special, or change any core code, just make it do what they do.

Oops, the CHDK bss initialization was commented out, but unfortunately putting it back in didn't change anything. I think I need to go through all the code from the beginning, comparing with another camera of the same generation, there must be something else I've missed.

Note that if you've booted with things broken, you can get a corrupted CCHDK.CFG, which will then cause you to crash all on it's own.

Leaving out the bss initialization will break *lots* of stuff, in ways that match at least some of your symptoms.

It is probably a good idea to step back and go through all the stuff you might have changed while debugging this.
