OS4 compatible UAE expansion development status - Page 15

I just noticed that booting from directory harddrive is much faster now.

(Hang problem is not solved yet)

Toni Wilen · 06 March 2016, 12:50

First hang problem solved: because it now busy waits, it can steal all time from other processes and cause a deadlock if busy waiting process has higher priority (like filesystem handlers). Lowering priority to very low after few busy waiting rounds (normally response comes very quickly anyway) fixed it.

Other hangs probably are caused by old bugs that only now trigger very easily because of timing change, so far all seem to have same side-effect: Amiga side is waiting for host to respond to trap "slot" X but host side sent it to trap "slot" Y. Then both wait for something that can never happen..

Tested! uaenet.device is working again as are pFTP and OWB

Interesting...

QUAKE software 640x480
PIV - 17.6 FPS (some blackouts / rare empty frames)
UAEGFX - 18 FPS (good)

AmigaRacer 640x480
PIV - 35 FPS (unplayable with music due to timer lock to 60 fps)
PIV - 60 FPS (playable with no music)
UAEGFX - 60 FPS (good and playable with sound & music)

Any speed tests between "old" and "new" trap system?

winuae.7z updated. Some tweaks and sanity tests added (outputs log message if something goes wrong).

Aegis · 12 March 2016, 20:51

Got an odd issue with NetSurf/uaenet with the new trap system - can't load any web sites (endless loading - no problems with beta 8) - the weird thing is that OWB/Odyssey still work

Toni Wilen · 12 March 2016, 21:07

Redownload and create log with -netlog command line parameter (you can cut out all boot related and only leave log messages after starting netsurf if log becomes too big)

Will do!

*Edit* wasn't sure what was safe to delete so I left it intact (264kb) - attached!

I missed your edit until now..

This could be the problem. Does these messages ("packet dropped") appear if you use older version?

I'm just about to do some open-heart surgery on my PC - assuming I don't kill it in the process I'll test this later on this evening

Toni Wilen · 19 March 2016, 19:21

winuae.7z updated, may fix the problem. Assuming I guessed what was wrong.

Aegis · 20 March 2016, 00:16

No, that latest winuae.7z (or b9) still doesn't work - I've attached the logs from beta 8 but a quick search through didn't reveal any dropped packets

Switching back to A2065 makes NetSurf work again in b9 so it's definitely uaenet.

Toni Wilen · 20 March 2016, 14:33

Nothing obvious in the log. I added some more logging to winuae.7z update..

Done - I've attached two sets of logs - one for NetSurf and one for OWB - same deal with both: load OS4.1, load browser, go to amiga.org - NetSurf doesn't work (works with b8) OWB works on b8/9.

Toni Wilen · 20 March 2016, 17:04

winuae.7z updated again, a bit more logging again. Only non-working winuaelog.txt is needed.

Here you go

Toni Wilen · 20 March 2016, 17:26

Updated. Again.

Delayed dropped packet support seems to work now (wait a bit before dropping if there is no readers queued because Amiga side was too busy) so problem apparently is caused by something else.

I don't have any ideas anymore, perhaps some better test case can be found later..

Aegis · 20 March 2016, 18:25

Ok, I'll speak to Chris (NetSurf dev) 'cause I'm sure he'll be curious about NetSurf bugging out whilst OWB/Odyssey are working - maybe it's easier for him to fix it his end.

I'll add this one to my list of other anomalous bugs (DVD issues

)
