The g_ascii_formatd() function expects the "format" argument to start
with a '%' character, e.g. it should be "%f" or such (this is not
clearly documented in the glib API docs, but visible from the source code).
The usage of "CH%f" for example will trigger an assertion and thus make the
LWLA device unusable in practice (e.g. in PulseView on Windows no probenames
would be shown, and sampling wouldn't work).
Example:
GLib-CRITICAL **: g_ascii_formatd: assertion 'format[0] == '%'' failed
(not exposed in all glib versions or builds of glib on all distros
apparently, some may need G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all or other measures)
From the glib g_ascii_formatd() code:
g_return_val_if_fail (format[0] == '%', NULL);
We now use g_snprintf() instead for simplicity. This has been tested to
fix this specific issue (i.e. the probenames now do show up in PulseView).
This closes bug #270.
The current implementation is renamed to tcp-rigol as it seems to be
a Rigol proprietary protocol used only on Rigol VS5000 series.
A new tcp-raw implementation is introduced which simply carries raw SCPI
commands over TCP. It is probably a much more common protocol and it is
at least available on Rigol DS2000 series on port 5555.
Most messages from the DMM parsers are not hard errors, lower to
sr_dbg() so that the sigrok-cli output doesn't get cluttered (by default)
with debug output such as:
P1: 0.001100 V DC AUTO
sr: fs9721: Sync nibble in byte 0 (0x00) is invalid.
P1: 0.001100 V DC AUTO
(using -l 4 or -l 5 will still allow the user to see such messages)
The sample buffer is a still a bit of a mystery, but this should help.
The variables in play:
triggerbar/ramsize_trigger - These two variables added together indicate
how many samples we want captured. ramsize_trigger - triggerbar
indicades how many samples must be captured. The ratio between the two
is determined by capture ratio.
memory_size - This indicates the number of samples in the circular
capture buffer. stop_address, now_address, and trigger_address are
pointers within the zeroplus that wrap based on this size.
now_address - The address that the zeroplus was about to write to when
it finished capturing, and now the address that will be read from when
reads are done from the capture buffer
stop_address - The address that the zeroplus last wrote to when it
completed capture.
trigger_address - The sample address for which the trigger occured.
status - This one is a bit tricky. Some testing has shown that if the
zeroplus has captured memory_size or less samples, the STATUS_READY bit
is set. For all captures generated with more samples than this,
STATUS_READY was cleared. However, boundary conditions are difficult to
test and values such as, memory_size + 1 have not been tested. We use
this to determine if the capture has wrapped through the sample buffer.
More testing is required, but this improves behavior in a number of
cases, specifically capturing sample amounts that are not a power of 2
of the sample buffer size. Before, random data was passed to libsigrok.

Experimentation with the windows driver has found no situation where
this is set to anything other than 1. The zerominus software also never
sets this to anything other than one. Revert the code change made in
0ab0cb942f.

If there is no trigger, don't try to capture anything before it. There
won't be any because we trigger immediately.

This will need some additional work when support is added for compression
modes since group D is disabled for RLE compression and C and D are
disabled for "double" compression.
