Wow, doesn't look good. There is a 1.3mb free area at top in 5d3, not useable?

g3gg0

that should be useable, right.
but first must be confirmed :)

edit: not usable, seems to be used by something...

maybe resize the memory of one of the sections? Like take 1/2 away from the player?

g3gg0

thats what i basically want to do.
but i guess the most areas have their adresses hardcoded in the using code too.

so i'd better check the dynamic memories.

Some graphs for RscMgr memory map, from sMemShowFix logs (this is the function g3gg0 investigated earlier in this thread):










You may ask - why I'm still investigating this?

The small allocators are sometimes too small for our needs, for example when loading too many modules, or when loading some memory-intensive ones. On small cameras like 1100D, you don't even need to do that.

Okay, but we have two large allocators (shoot_malloc and SRM), right?

Yes, but these have some restrictions:
- you can't keep them allocated forever:
    - srm_malloc: you can no longer take pictures if anything is allocated from there (so it's useless as general-purpose memory)
    - shoot_malloc: Canon code expects it to be completely free when doing certain things (for example, in-camera raw development, or enabling certain noise reduction modes, or - on 60D - simply switching between photo and movie mode). It works most of the time, but those rarely-used actions will fail (ERR70 or camera lockup).
- you can't allocate too many blocks from there (about 1000 from shoot_malloc, or a very small number from SRM).
- for this reason, the memory backend tries to avoid them - until the small allocators get full

In particular, Lua is memory-intensive, allocating thousands of small blocks using realloc. Our current allocators are not ready for that - loading many scripts gives ERR70, even if you have plenty of memory available, because of fragmentation.

I managed to get better results here, by pre-allocating a fairly large block (512K) and managing it with a custom allocator optimized for small blocks. However, that large block may end up in shoot_malloc, which I prefer to avoid.

Other reasons for investigating the RscMgr:

On 70D, the RscMgr "allocates" (with hardcoded address) memory for IMGPLAY overlapping the first raw buffer right after a still photo was captured (which interferes with raw overlays). For that case, I'm seriously thinking to change the memory map somehow, so these two buffers no longer overlap. (discussion)

Finally, some cameras still have memory that cannot be allocated by shoot+SRM. For example, 5D3 can allocate 438MB outside LiveView, but only 284MB in LiveView. I kinda doubt the LiveView actually uses 150MB. On 60D, the numbers are 436 outside LV, and 374 in LV - a little better. That extra memory could be useful for raw recording, but unfortunately it's not visible on these maps.




From the memory maps above, on 60D on the maps above, you can see a 7MB block at the end that appears unused (similar to the one g3gg0 found on 7D). Currently, autoexec.bin is loaded there, but it has some side effects - you cannot run the dm-spy-experiments branch, and not all this memory is available for ML. I'm thinking to move autoexec.bin to AllocateMemory, and use the 7MB block as general-purpose memory for ML, using some custom allocator (maybe Canon's).




I've got logs from 5D3, 60D, and also from 70D (nikfreak). For other cameras, I'd like you to get the log output for sMemShowFix, so I can generate similar graphs. To do that:
- find the stub (tutorial here; look here for strings to look for)
- compile the dm-spy-experiments branch, with CONFIG_DEBUG_INTERCEPT=y in Makefile.user
- put this in don't click me (example for 70D):

    void debug_intercept();
    debug_intercept();
    void (*smemShowFix)(void) = 0xFF202DE8;
    smemShowFix();
    debug_intercept();

- run this code and upload dm.log from your card

Thanks in advance.

50D: looks like we might have found a 10MB block. This camera has enough RAM for the current needs, so enabling it will not give obvious benefits - maybe only under very heavy workloads, with lots of Lua scripts loaded. Or maybe it could be used to buffer 2 or 3 extra frames while recording.

SRM figures are here - looks like there is potential to squeeze a little more memory for raw recording, if the two "AVERAGE_WORK" blocks are unused in LiveView (about 47 MB, which might be noticeable).

100D: Nothing obvious, unfortunately.

There are some overlaps (also in 100D) not yet handled in the current graphs (solved). For example:

0x4a000000 ... 0x4adfffff : SS_DEVELOP1               (14.0 MB)
0x4aa00000 ... 0x4adfffff : IMGPLAY_WORK2             (4.0 MB)


so Canon code probably assumes IMGPLAY and SS_DEVELOP1 will never be used both at the same time.

Looks like we have a 4MB free block. Nice!

(I've also rebuilt all other graphs to show overlaps)

I have found the stubs for 500D:

/** Low-level allocators */

NSTUB(0xFF06A4CC, init_memory_pool)
NSTUB(0xFF06AB44, allocate_memory_from_pool)
NSTUB(0xFF06ADB0, free_memory_to_pool)
NSTUB(0xFF06A970, get_max_region_of_pool)


I will try to run the test later, but I don't know which value should I put on the sample code that a1ex has posted for 70D.  500D is not included in the list with values that Nikfreak has provided for several cameras. Is the same value of init_memory_pool ?

a1ex

Look for the function that prints strings similar to those in the above logs.

josepvm

Ok, for 500D is 0xFF0BC2BC

I will run the test later.

Sorry for the dumb question: which is the file where I have to insert the code for the "Don't click me" test? I have been looking everywhere in ML source tree and I still don't find it ...   :-[  It's "debug.c" file?


Edit:     I found it,  is the "run_test()" function in "debug.c"


josepvm

Here is the log, for 500D:

Not much interesting here...

The good part is that 500D doesn't have issues with the general-purpose memory, so it's fine the way it is.

Yes, ML works perfectly on my little old 500D, no issues at all. And it is a nice, lighweight camera for stills work, very capable, thanks to ML  ;)


Are the "Low-level allocators" stubs useful for your investigation ? Do you need them for other cameras?.  I could search them for 50D or EOS-M.

a1ex

Could be interesting for 50D, since there appears to be a large free block. The 50D doesn't have memory problems either, so it would be more like future-proofing it.

josepvm

I have found the stubs for 50D. But there is something in this cam that does not happen in 60D and 500D. The stubs for 50D are duplicated, they can be found in two different places, with a fixed offset of 0x800000  (8MB block?).

These stubs are valid, keeping untouched all the previously used memory related stubs:

/** Memory allocation **/
NSTUB(0xFF8680C8,  GetMemoryInformation)
NSTUB(0xFF868074,  GetSizeOfMaxRegion)
NSTUB(0xFF867B54, _AllocateMemory)                          // thanks Alex
NSTUB(0xFF867D18, _FreeMemory)                              // release_mem in Indy's IDC
NSTUB(0xFF991018, _alloc_dma_memory)
NSTUB(0xFF818DC8, _free)
NSTUB(0xFF99104C, _free_dma_memory)
NSTUB(0xFF818CF4, _malloc)                                  // maybe it's better to use Allocate/Free?

/** Low-level allocators */

NSTUB(0xFF86755C, init_memory_pool)   // used to init the AllocateMemory pool and others
NSTUB(0xFF8679E4, allocate_memory_from_pool) // called from AllocateMemory
NSTUB(0xFF867B84, free_memory_to_pool) // called from FreeMemory
NSTUB(0xFF867FE0, get_max_region_of_pool) // called from GetSizeOfMaxRegion



But also this will be possible:


NSTUB(0xFF068074,  GetSizeOfMaxRegion)
NSTUB(0xFF067B54, _AllocateMemory)                       
NSTUB(0xFF067D18, _FreeMemory)                                                           

/** Low-level allocators */

NSTUB(0xFF06755C, init_memory_pool)   // used to init the AllocateMemory pool and others
NSTUB(0xFF0679E4, allocate_memory_from_pool) // called from AllocateMemory
NSTUB(0xFF067B84, free_memory_to_pool) // called from FreeMemory
NSTUB(0xFF067FE0, get_max_region_of_pool) // called from GetSizeOfMaxRegion


The functions are identical in both cases.


So a1ex, you will see which option is better. I suppose the second option could require changing the addresses of other stubs ...
