Sort "semi public" routines and "global data" of the asix-sigma driver
in the protocol.h header file by their use. Add comments. This improves
maintenance of the driver source.
Move all of the FTDI connection handling from api.c to protocol.c, and
prepare "forced" and "optional" open/close. This allows future driver
code to gracefully handle situations where FPGA registers need to get
accessed, while the caller may be inside or outside the "opened" period
of the session. This is motivated by automatic netlist type and sample
rate detection, to avoid the cost of repeated firmware uploads.
Detect more error conditions, and unbreak those code paths where wrong
data was forwarded. It's essential to tell the USB communication layer,
sigrok API error codes, and glib mainloop receive callbacks apart. Since
the compiler won't notice, maintainers have to be extra careful.
Rephrase diagnostics messages. The debug and spew levels are intended
for developers, but the error/warn/info levels will get presented to
users, should read more fluently and speak from the application's POV.
Allow long text lines in source code, to not break string literals which
users will report and developers need to search for (this matches Linux
kernel coding style).
This commit also combines the retrieval of sample memory fill level,
trigger position, and status flags. Since these values span an adjacent
set of FPGA registers. Which reduces USB communication overhead, and
simplifies error handling. The helper routine considers the retrieval
of each of these values as optional from the caller's perspective, to
simplify other use cases (mode check during acquisition, before sample
download after acquisition has stopped).
INIT pin sensing after PROG pin pulsing was reworked, to handle the
technicalities of the FTDI chip and its USB communication and the FTDI
library which is an external dependency of this device driver. Captures
of USB traffic suggest that pin state is communicated at arbitrary times.
Address minor style nits to improve readability and simplify review. The
sizeof() expressions need not duplicate data type details. Concentrate
the assignment to, update of, and evaluation of variables in closer
proximity to reduce potential for errors during maintenance. Separate
the gathering of input data and the check for their availability from
each other, to simplify expressions and better reflect the logic's flow.
Further "flatten" the DRAM layout's declaration for sample data. Declare
timestamps and sample data as uint16_t, keep accessing them via endianess
aware conversion routines. Accessing a larger integer in smaller quantities
is perfectly fine, the inverse direction would be problematic.
Keep application data in its logical presentation in C language struct
fields. Explicitly convert to raw byte streams by means of endianess
aware conversion helpers. Don't assume a specific memory layout for
C language variables any longer. This improves portability, and
reliability of hardware access across compiler versions and build
configurations.
This change also unobfuscates the "disabled channels" arithmetics in
the sample rate dependent logic. Passes read-only pointers to write
routines. Improves buffer size checks. Reduces local buffer size for
DRAM reads. Rewords comments on "decrement then subtract 64" during
trigger/stop position gathering. Unobfuscates access to sample data
after download (timestamps, and values). Covers a few more occurances
of magic numbers for memory organization.
Prefer masks over shift counts for hardware register bit fields, to
improve consistency of the declaration block and code instructions.
Improve maintenability of the LA mode initiation after FPGA netlist
configuration (better match written data and read-back expectation,
eliminate magic literals that are hidden in nibbles).
Move the 'devc' parameter to the front in routine signatures for the
remaining locations which were not adjusted yet. Reduce indentation of
continuation lines, especially in long routine signatures. Try to not
break string literals in diagnostics messages, rephrase some of the
messages. Massage complex formulae for the same reason.
Whitespace changes a lot, word positions move on text lines. See a
corresponding whitespace ignoring and/or word diff for the essence of
the change.
The driver got extended in a previous commit to accept any hardware
supported samplerate in the setter API, although the list call does
suggest a discrete set of rates (a subset of the hardware capabilities).
Update a comment to catch up with the implementation.
Drop the 250kHz item, it's too close to 200kHz. Add a 2MHz item to
achieve a more consistent 1/2/5 sequence in each decade. Unfortunately
50MHz and an integer divider will never result in 20MHz, that's why
25MHz is an exception to this rule (has been before, just "stands out
more perceivably" in this adjusted sequence).
Running several firmware uploads in quick repetition sometimes failed.
It's essential to stop the active netlist from preventing the FPGA's
getting reconfigured (FTDI to FPGA pins are so few, and shared). Delays
in a single iteration of the initiation sequence improves reliability.
Retries of the sequence are belt and suspenders on top of that.
Before the change, failure to configure was roughly one in ten. After
the change, several thousand reconfigurations passed without failure.
Use symbolic identifiers to select firmware images, which eliminates
magic 0/1/2 position numbers in the list of files, improves readability
and also improves robustness. Move 'devc' to 'ctx' and before other
arguments in routine signatures while we are here.
FPGA configuration (netlist upload) of ASIX SIGMA devices is rather
special a phase, and deserves its own state in the device context's
"state" tracking. Not only is the logic analyzer not available during
this period, the FTDI cable is also put into bitbanging mode instead
of regular data communication in FIFO mode, and netlist configuration
takes a considerable amount of time (tenths of a second).
Use common support for SW limits, and untangle the formerly convoluted
logic for sample count or time limits. Accept user provided samplerate
values when the hardware supports them, also those which are not listed.
The previous implementation mapped sample count limits to timeout specs
which depend on the samplerate. The order of applications' calls into
the config set routines is unspecified, the use of one common storage
space led to an arbitrary resulting value for the msecs limit, and loss
of user specified values for read-back.
Separate the input which was specified by applications, from limits
which were derived from this input and determine the acquisition phase's
duration, from sample count limits which apply to sample data download
and session feed submission after the acquisition finished. This allows
to configure the values in any order, to read back previously configured
values, and to run arbitrary numbers of acquisition and download cycles
without losing input specs.
This commit also concentrates all the limits related computation in a
single location at the start of the acquisition. Moves the submission
buffer's count limit container to the device context where the other
limits are kept as well. Renames the samplerate variable, and drops an
aggressive check for supported rates (now uses hardware constraints as
the only condition). Removes an unused variable in the device context.
Introduce a 4MiB session feed submission buffer in the device context.
This reduces the number of API calls and improves performance of srzip
archive creation.
This change also eliminates complex logic which manipulates a previously
created buffer's length and data position, to split the queued data when
a trigger position was involed. The changed implementation results in a
data flow from sample memory to the session feed which feels more natural
during review, and better lends itself to future trigger support code.
Use common SW limits support for the optional sample count limit. Move
'sdi' and 'devc' parameters to the front to match conventions. Reduce
indentation in routine signatures while we are here.
This implementation is prepared to handle trigger positions, but for now
disables the specific logic which checks for trigger condition matches
to improve the trigger marker's resolution. This will get re-enabled in
a later commit.
Add more symbolic identifiers, and rename some of the existing names for
access to SIGMA sample memory. This eliminates magic numbers and reduces
redundancy and potential for errors during maintenance.
This commit also concentrates DRAM layout related declarations in the
header file in a single location, which previously were scattered, and
separated registers from their respective bit fields.
Extend comments on the difference of events versus sample data.
Move the FPGA commands (which can access registers, and sample memory)
declarations before the register layout declaration. Which then no
longer separates the registers declarations from their bit fields.
Update comments on the register set while we are here.
Eliminate a few magic numbers in FPGA commands, use symbolic identifiers
for automatic register address increments, and DRAM access bank selects.
Improve grouping of related declarations in the header file.
Slightly rephrase and comment on the FPGA configuration of the ASIX
SIGMA logic analyzer. Use symbolic pin names to eliminate magic numbers.
Concentrate FPGA related comments in a single spot, tell the Xilinx FPGA
from FTDI cable (uses bitbang mode for slave serial configuration).
This fixes typos in the PROG pulse and INIT check (tests D5 and comments
on D6). Also removes the most probably undesired 100s timeout in the
worst case (100M us, 10K iterations times 10ms delay). Obsoletes labels
for error paths. Drops a few empty lines to keep related instruction
blocks together. Includes other style nits.
Stick with the FTDI library for data acquisition, and most of all for
firmware upload (bitbang is needed during FPGA configuration). Removing
this dependency is more complex, and needs to get addressed later.
Re-use common USB support during scan before open, which also allows to
select devices if several of them are connected. Either of "conn=vid.pid"
or "conn=bus.addr" formats are supported and were tested.
This implementation detects and displays SIGMA and SIGMA2 devices. Though
their function is identical, users may want to see the respective device
name. Optionally detect OMEGA devices, too (compile time option, off by
default), though they currently are not supported beyond detection. They
just show up during scans for ASIX logic analyzers, and users may want to
have them listed, too, for awareness.
This implementation also improves robustness when devices get disconnected
between scan and use. The open and close routines now always create the
FTDI contexts after the code has moved out of the scan phase, where common
USB support code is used.
This resolves bug #841.
Eliminate an unnecessary magic number for the maximum filename length of
SIGMA netlists. Use a more compact source code phrase to "unclutter" the
list of filenames and their features/purpose. Move the filesize limit to
the list of files to simplify future maintenance.
Introduce a text to number conversion routine which is more general than
sr_atol() is. It accepts non-decimal numbers, with optional caller given
or automatic base, including 0b for binary. It is not as strict and can
return the position after the number, so that callers can optionally
support suffix notations (units, or scale factors, or multiple separated
numbers in the same text string).
Cover the recently introduced inline routines which back the preprocessor
macros for endianess conversion. Add test sequences for read and write
routines for different data types of different sizes, different endianess
formats and signedness, and include those routines which increment the
read/write position.
Address style, robustness, and usability nits in the common endianess
conversion helpers in the libsigrok-internal.h header file. Rephrase
preprocessor macros as static inline C language functions to eliminate
side effects, and improve data type safety. Provide macros under the
previous names for backwards compatibility, so that call sites can
migrate to the routines at their discretion (or not at all).
Performance is not affected. Inline routines are identically accessible
to compiler optimizers as preprocessor macros with their text expansion
are. Resulting machine code should be the same.
Introduce variants which also increment the read or write position in
the byte stream after data transfer. This reduces more redundancy at
call sites.
Introduce a new tests/conv.c source file which exercises the endianess
conversion macros. It's assumed that some use cases may break their
operation, fortunately these edge cases were not seen before, or the
unreliable operation went unnoticed. This test raises awareness of the
implementation's constraints.
This is a start, the test sequence will benefit from adding some more
cases to increase coverage.
The UT32x driver requires a user spec for the connection. The device
cannot get identified, that's why successful open/close for the port
will suffice. Lack of an input spec as well as failure in the early
scan phase will terminate the scan routine early.
When we reach the end of the scan which creates the device instance
and registers it with the list of found devices, the port already
is closed and the list of devices will never be empty. Remove the
redundant close call and the dead branch which frees the serial port.

There are cases where the connect() call returns EBUSY when trying to
connect to a device. This has been observed when sampling an RDTech
UM24C. In this case, scanning the device works fine. However, when
sampling the device, Sigrok first scans the device, then closes the
connection and re-opens it to sample the device. If the close/open
calls happen in close successions, the Bluetooth stack sometimes
returns EBUSY.
Work around this issue by retrying if the connect() returns EBUSY.

Since the device should be closed after the scan, close it in sr_modbus_scan.
Alternatively, every single driver could close the device after calling
sr_modbus_scan. This causes duplicated code, is prone to forgetting it and it
wasn't the calling driver who opened the device in the first place.
This change unbreaks maynuo-m97 and rdtech-dps.
Changing triggers (e.g. from low to high) would sometimes cause the
acquisition to seemingly "hang" due to missing variable initializations
(in reality the device would wait for incorrect triggers and/or on
incorrect channels).
This fixes bug #1535.
