yes, i've already applied that script. i'm not sure whether the order of applying signature/scripts would make any difference?
AFAIK sig should go first, I believe the scripts rely on some things already being identified.
Don't forget what the H stands for.

3) Convert the lib.c from platform\sx210is\sub\100c

almost finish with this file, its relativly easy to match sx200 with sx210 and get the new addresses,Just time consumming

Here you have the file http://www.zshare.net/download/795492156642b952/

I think everthing is allright, double check will be good if someone can,
The only thing I was not able to get yet is the void **fb=(void **)0x2180;   of this function:

Code: [Select]
// Live picture buffer (shoot not pressed) //ASM1989 08.20.2010
void *vid_get_viewport_live_fb()
{
    void **fb=(void **)0x2180;                               // 0x2150 or 0x2180 (old SX200) ???? What for SX210
    unsigned char buff = *((unsigned char*)0x2058);          // found at FF84FA18 (guess work)
    if (buff == 0) buff = 2;  else buff--;
    return fb[buff];
}

any clue from someone?
It is the size of a buffer maybe grater?


Also noticed that the size of the viewport is the same as in sx200, 960x270 ??

anyway here you have the list of correlations between SX200 addresses and the sx210 so far:

SX200   <..>   SX210
FFAC8D6C   <..>   FFB2FC6C

The only thing I was not able to get yet is the void **fb=(void **)0x2180;   of this function:
...
any clue from someone?
Indeed, this must be completely opaque to an uninitiated scholar...

First, a quick suggestion: for a start, return 0 in *vid_get_viewport_live_fb(), and return the correct viewport base address in *vid_get_viewport_fb(), which is easy to find from the code that references the "VRAM Address: %p" string.

Now in more detail. Actually, Canon uses (or used to anyway) three buffers, one (first) of them located at the base address, and switches between them about 30 times a second, if I remember correctly. We only need to know which one of them is most recently updated, if we want to speed up motion detection by about 30ms. There is a table somewhere in RAM with the addresses of the buffers, and a variable with the index 0,1,2 into this table. It's these two locations that you may want to find, but I'm afraid there's no generic recipe... They are usually referenced in the code just before, or around "LiveView.c". Here're sample code snippets from the Ixus950 and A720 (sorry, don't have disasms of later cameras):
Code: [Select]
FF9C9E84                 LDR     R3, =0x8C74
FF9C9E88                 LDR     R2, =0x8C58
FF9C9E8C                 LDRB    R0, [R3]
FF9C9E90                 LDR     R1, [R2,R0,LSL#2]
Code: [Select]
FFC2936C                 LDR     R4, =0x2084
...
FFC293B8                 LDRB    R2, [R4]
FFC293BC                LDR     R0, =0x21D0
FFC293C0                 LDR     R2, [R0,R2,LSL#2]
You can verify them in memory browser: the index variable should circle through 0,1,2, and the table should contain three addresses, starting with the VRAM base address.

P.S. When you're finished, you may want to comment the code accordingly. Which few people do, unfortunately.

EDIT: Oops, corrected ixus code...

Thanks Whoever,

Confortable with asm and IDA, but my experience with chdk and ARM is limited yet, since i do some work on the sx200, i'm focusing my efforts on matching sx200 with sx210, and its looks like a successfull aproach at this time,
but someone with more experience in chdk must take the lead. probably Harpoma.

In a first review I was unable to find it, If anyone can take whoever coments and find it will be apreciated.

6) OK, I keep looking for addresses now in the file:platform\sx210is\sub\100c\boot.c

Someone with more experience in chdk and arm should verify and start the real porting, I just try to speed up things, but my knowledge / time is limited too.

I'm just finding the new address in the sx210

So far this is what I have

Code: [Select]
void taskCreateHook(int *p) {
 p-=17;
 if (p[0]==0xFF87EB90)  p[0]=(int)capt_seq_task;    // -> ASM1989 08.21.2010  need to be verified
 if (p[0]==0xFF8342C0)  p[0]=(int)mykbd_task;       // -> ASM1989 08.21.2010  need to be verified
 if (p[0]==0xFF89B134)  p[0]=(int)init_file_modules_task;   // -> ASM1989 08.21.2010  need to be verified
if (p[0]==0xFF862024)  p[0]=(int)JogDial_task_my; // -> ASM1989 08.21.2010  not sure at all, quite different than the sx200, need to verified
 // The JogDial_task_my address was found going back to sub_FF8623C0 , this one is equal in the sx200 to  sub_FF848668
//and it points to the real JogDial_task_my in the sx200-> FF84856C
 if (p[0]==0xFF8C475C)  p[0]=(int)exp_drv_task;   // -> ASM1989 08.21.2010 not sure, its simillar but need to be verified
 


About the movie_record_task (0xFF9382B8  in the sx200) IS WAS UNABLE TO FIND IT, So help appreciated.


SX200   <..>   SX210
FF86327C   <..>   FF87EB90
FF821A90   <..>   FF8342C0

PD: added SX200->sx210 ref table

It is advisable to use new, much clearer style in task hooks, based on the research published here. The corresponding structures are defined in dryos31.h, for sample usage see platform/a480/sub/100b/boot.c.

Of course, one has to see if DryOS release #0043 uses the same structures and addresses (0x1934 and 0x1938) as the previous releases #0031 and #0039, but one has to do it anyway.

Thanks for the tip whoever,

At this time only searching for the new addresses, the base code is copied from the current sx200
