cores
* Only keep a single core online most of the time.
* Device: Add an enableCPUCores method to allow controlling the amount of
online CPU cores.
* Move the initial core onlining setup to Kobo:init, instead of the startup script.
* Enable two CPU cores while hinting new (e.g., cache miss) pages in PDF land.
* Enable two CPU cores while processing book metadata.
* Drive-by fix to isolate the DocCache pressure check to KoptInterface
and actually apply it when it matters most (e.g., k2pdfopt stuff).
We should always unschedule suspend before scheduling it again (i.e.,
use rescheduleSuspend ;)).
Fix#8097 (many thanks to @Mel-kior for the detailed repro!)
It turns out that the kernel needs a little push now that the dedicated
wifi power control module is gone ;).
Issue was only exposed if you booted KOReader while the Wi-Fi was down.
* Decode EV_KEY:KEY_BATTERY
* Input: Only drop hovering *pen* events.
There are currently too many broken 0-pressure *finger* events being
reported on the Elipsa, making a dumb rejection highly annoying.
* Bump base
https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1393
* Rely on actual events to detect loss of contact for the "snow"
protocol.
Allows simplifying the whole thing.
* Use `ipairs` over `pairs` for pure arrays.
The hyphenation of a word can be changed from its default
by long pressing for 3 seconds and selecting 'Hyphenate'.
These overrides are stored in a per-language file, i.e:
koreader/settings/user-German.hyph.
Notification: adds some functions so it can be used as
a notification manager.
Have various bits of code emitting events that may generate
notifications advertize themselves as the source for following
notifications.
Add a menu to allow selecting some subsets of sources
to show or hide.
Add a new reader module: ReaderScrolling, that exposes
some Scrolling options to the menu (which are to be used
by and implemented in ReaderPaging and ReaderRolling
themselves) and implement some inertial scrolling logic
used by both of them.
Default to "Classic scrolling" which is the expected
behaviour on phones and tablets.
The old CreDocument buggy behaviour is available as
"Turbo scrolling" for both Paging and Rolling documents.
Added a "On release scrolling" option that might be
useful on eInk to avoid dynamic pan/scrolling.
Try to avoid bad interactions between pan and swipe,
cancelling unwanted panning if we ended up doing a
swipe or multiswipe.
We've managed to trip a few of those on dimen fields post-init but
pre-paintTo in a few weird coner-cases, a point at which dimen is often
nil.
ConfigDialog: Deal with that very thing in update()
Fix#7656
* Input: Don't create a new TimeVal object for input frame timestamps, just promote our existing table by assigning it the `TimeVal` metatable.
* TimeVal: Export (const) `zero` & `huge` TimeVal objects, because they're common enough in our codebase. (NOTE: not actually const, that's a Lua 5.4 feature ;p).
* GestureDetector: Explain the behavior of the `last_tevs` & `first_tevs` tables, and why one needs a new object and not the other.
* Speaking of, simplify the copy method for `first_tevs`, because it doesn't need to create a new TimeVal object, we can just reference the original, it's unique and re-assigned for each frame.
* TimeVal: Log the results of the COARSE probes in debug logs
* GestureDetector: Print details of failed clock probes in debug logs
* GestureDetector: Skip the BOOTTIME probe when CLOCK_BOOTTIME is unsupported.
* Input: Decode ABS_DISTANCE events in debug logs
* Get rid of duplicated <linux/input.h> constants, use the FFI module everywhere (re #7536)
* Kobo: Get rid of the `touch_alyssum_protocol` quirk. Replace it by setting `main_finger_slot` to `1`, like on the H2O.
The Wacom pen reports sane CLOCK_REALTIME timestamps, but the Touchscreen reports timestamps frozen at the boot time ts (in REALTIME) :s.
So, make everyone use synthetic CLOCK_MONOTONIC timestamps in order to make gesture detection behave.
Requires https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1344 & https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1346 (fix#7485)
Assorted input fixes:
* Actually handle errors in the "there's a callback timer" input polling loop.
* Don't break timerfd when the clock probe was inconclusive.
Not directly related, but noticed because of duplicate onInputEvent handlers:
* HookContainer: Fix deregistration to actually deregister properly. "Regression" extant since its inception in #2933 (!).
* Made sure the three plugins (basically the trio of AutoThingies ;p) that were using HookContainer actually unschedule their task on teardown.
* Actually load librt properly on old Linux systems (fix#7472)
* Made sure SDL & Android honored timeouts properly in some edgy (or not so edgy, in SDL's case) cases (c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1343).
* Try harder not to consume a timer callback when the timerfd backend is in use and `select` timed out *not* because of a timerfd expiring. This would take some particularly heinous timing to reproduce (e.g., a timerfd set, but a task deadline expiring *before* it). May or may not help with #7473.
* Decode `BTN_` KEY codes in verbose debug logs.
* Fix MultiTouch on the H2O (GestureDetector was hard-coding the two slots as 0 & 1, but the H2O kernel is a special snowflake that doesn't use slot 0, instead switching to slot 1 & 2).
* ReaderDictionary: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* ReaderHighlight: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* ReaderView: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Android: Reset gesture detection state on APP_CMD_TERM_WINDOW.
This prevents potentially being stuck in bogus gesture states when switching apps.
* GestureDetector:
* Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Fixed delay computations to handle time warps (large and negative deltas).
* Simplified timed callback handling to invalidate timers much earlier, preventing accumulating useless timers that no longer have any chance of ever detecting a gesture.
* Fixed state clearing to handle the actual effective slots, instead of hard-coding slot 0 & slot 1.
* Simplified timed callback handling in general, and added support for a timerfd backend for better performance and accuracy.
* The improved timed callback handling allows us to detect and honor (as much as possible) the three possible clock sources usable by Linux evdev events.
The only case where synthetic timestamps are used (and that only to handle timed callbacks) is limited to non-timerfd platforms where input events use
a clock source that is *NOT* MONOTONIC.
AFAICT, that's pretty much... PocketBook, and that's it?
* Input:
* Use the <linux/input.h> FFI module instead of re-declaring every constant
* Fixed (verbose) debug logging of input events to actually translate said constants properly.
* Completely reset gesture detection state on suspend. This should prevent bogus gesture detection on resume.
* Refactored the waitEvent loop to make it easier to comprehend (hopefully) and much more efficient.
Of specific note, it no longer does a crazy select spam every 100µs, instead computing and relying on sane timeouts,
as afforded by switching the UI event/input loop to the MONOTONIC time base, and the refactored timed callbacks in GestureDetector.
* reMarkable: Stopped enforcing synthetic timestamps on input events, as it should no longer be necessary.
* TimeVal:
* Refactored and simplified, especially as far as metamethods are concerned (based on <bsd/sys/time.h>).
* Added a host of new methods to query the various POSIX clock sources, and made :now default to MONOTONIC.
* Removed the debug guard in __sub, as time going backwards can be a perfectly normal occurrence.
* New methods:
* Clock sources: :realtime, :monotonic, :monotonic_coarse, :realtime_coarse, :boottime
* Utility: :tonumber, :tousecs, :tomsecs, :fromnumber, :isPositive, :isZero
* UIManager:
* Ported event loop & scheduling to TimeVal, and switched to the MONOTONIC time base.
This ensures reliable and consistent scheduling, as time is ensured never to go backwards.
* Added a :getTime() method, that returns a cached TimeVal:now(), updated at the top of every UI frame.
It's used throughout the codebase to cadge a syscall in circumstances where we are guaranteed that a syscall would return a mostly identical value,
because very few time has passed.
The only code left that does live syscalls does it because it's actually necessary for accuracy,
and the only code left that does that in a REALTIME time base is code that *actually* deals with calendar time (e.g., Statistics).
* DictQuickLookup: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* FootNoteWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* HTMLBoxWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Notification: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* TextBoxWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* AutoSuspend: Port to TimeVal
* AutoTurn:
* Fix it so that settings are actually honored.
* Port to TimeVal
* BackgroundRunner: Port to TimeVal
* Calibre: Port benchmarking code to TimeVal
* BookInfoManager: Removed unnecessary yield in the metadata extraction subprocess now that subprocesses get scheduled properly.
* All in all, these changes reduced the CPU cost of a single tap by a factor of ten (!), and got rid of an insane amount of weird poll/wakeup cycles that must have been hell on CPU schedulers and batteries..
* Re-implement the PB fb fixup insanity
It's apparently still necessary on a number of devices.
Fix#7072
* Bump base
(Fix FBInk on the same devices, for another reason).
* Unify logging with AutoSuspend (e.g., keep ourselves to showing the delay in seconds, not the raw timestamp, as that's way harder to interpret, and the RTC module and/or logger will do that for us when the time comes).
* Speaking of, minor revamp of RTC related logging to make it more human-readable.
* On Kobo, if we hit the unexpected wakeup limit, re-engage AutoSuspend's *suspend* check, so that the device has a chance to poweroff instead of being kept awake.
* Hold "Wi-Fi connection" to show network connection options.
* Honor backend connections (e.g., if wpa_supplicant found a matching AP in its own config first).
* When user clicks "Wi-Fi connection" in menu, only prompt if state is ambiguous.
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Updated readSetting API to allow proper initialization to default.
Use it to initialize tables, e.g., fixing corner-cases in readerFooter that could prevent settings from being saved.
(Fixes an issue reported on Gitter).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Add simpler API than the the flip* ones to toggle boolean settings.
* Update LuaSettings/DocSettigns usage throughout the codebase to use the dedicated boolean methods wher appropriate, and clean up some of the more mind-bending uses.
* FileChooser: Implement an extended default exclusion list (fix#2360)
* ScreenSaver: Refactor to avoid the pile of kludges this was threatening to become. Code should be easier to follow and use, and fallbacks now behave as expected (fix#4418).
Otherwise, ScreenSaver handling doesn't work, duh'.
I have no idea how I managed to get that working the last time I tested
it :?.
Possibly I tested the final code on a K4 and not a K3?
Fix#7333
previously: warm light stays at 100% for 3 hours and then drops by 50% per hour
now: warm light stays at 100% for 4 hours and then drops by 15% per hour
Make Notification have toast=true, and UIManager deal
specifically with such widget:
a "toast" widget gets closed by any event, and let
the event be handled by a lower widget.
This should allow us to not wait or tap to get rid
of a notification, and just go on with what we're
doing.
Also make them have a default timeout of 2s,
used with all existing ones.
platform: do not pass a directory on the command line.
The home directory will be properly set by Device.home_dir.
It was sometimes crashing when opened with no args.
Fixes: #7049
* Modernize jit syntax
It's built-in, no need for a require anymore.
* Flag Android should_restrict_JIT again
It's mildly helpful at putting off the inevitable.
(very, very, very, very mildly).
* Bump android-luajit-launcher
https://github.com/koreader/android-luajit-launcher/pull/281
* Make switching *back* to the default DPI via auto actually work
properly.
eg., by actually setting DPI back to defaults, and clearing the override
flag.
* Bump base to pickup https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1258
* Warn on restart if the startup script has been updated, because a restart will not reload it.
* Also warn right after the update if it contained a startup script update...
* Use a CRe set* method when toggling nightmode
This ensures it gets flagged as add_reset by the call cache, and that
CRe will actually re-render, as it's necessary if nightmode_images is
enabled (the default).
Fix#6845
* Prevent ReaderHighlight:onTap from running ReaderHighlight:clear when
it's unnecessary.
Avoiding a clearSelection call in CRe that could invalidate the cache
and cause unnecessary redraws.
* Don't store empty highlight arrays when all HLs on a page have
been deleted
- Lcd devices won't use the SurfaceView, just the good old native content/window (except AndroidTv and ChromeOS)
- All android dialogs will be presented with Material Design on recent devices.
- Added an option to device settings to manage application battery optimization.
- Permissions that require the user to go to a settings page will be presented with a native android dialog.
- bump android-luajit-launcher
- Changes under the hood: koreader/android-luajit-launcher#257
Follow up to b90f6db8: allow specifying an other
value for tap interval when the keyboard is shown
(a good value for tap interval on reader and UI
elements might be too long on the keyboard, and
prevent typing fast).
* Fix initial tap on the H2O
There's no slot 0, so make sure the initialState doesn't get confused by input's init data that otherwise assumes the main slot is 0
* handle onDestroy
we need it if killed by the system (ie: battery optimizations or OOM)
we need it to exit the lua VM when we call finish() from Kotlin
This prevents us for being trapped into a zombie state
On pocketbook, update modes are not as clear cut due to overall
chipset and kernel version mess. Inkview solves this by always
using the slowest (and safe) GC16 waveform. We now do that too
by default.
Slow updates suck though, so there's now a menu entry to configure
it for speed (with mild artifacts at best, kernel panic at worst).
This is a generic interface (any eink Screen can announce support).
The driver may interpret the slow/fast range however they want.
On devices where the event time is the uptime (time since
boot), we don't need to trash it and use TimeVal:now()
and lose precision. We can still use these times for
relative delays and durations computations, which is
mostly all we use them for.
We just need a real clock time in GestureDetector for
two timers (long-press and double tap), where we do
the event time type detection on the first event, on
all devices.
This allows for better energy efficiency (no more 50Hz tick poll),
as well as lower input lag / higher precision - touch events are
native linux ones.
In addition, auto off/suspend plugin is used in this mode, as we need
to trigger (timed) sleep / poweroff on our own, since the OS ones
will no longer work whenever koreader has focus.
This is for rooted devices only, and possibly somewhat FW
specific, so enabled only on PB740-2 where it's reasonably tested.
* PB Crash Screen:
* We don't actually support the "tap to restart now" behavior, it's a
plain sleep.
* Remove CBB toggling leftovers missed in #6696Fix#6780
* Enable AutoSuspend plugin on rM
Fix#6769
Re: #6028
* Use the PowerEvent handler on rM
It makes much more sense than the fire & forget & hope for the best
approach copied from the Kindle platform, because we *are* controlling
suspend ourselves (mostly), unlike on Kindle ;).
Fix#6676
* Enable HW inversion on the rM
I mean, we kinda forgot to ever test that, but I don't really see why it
wouldn't work ;).
* In icons mode, just use two different icons to display Wi-Fi status
* Enable Wi-Fi status icon on Kobo & Cervantes, too
* Refresh footer on (dis)connect if the Wi-Fi status item is enabled
The differences between Allwinner/MXC matter surprisingly little in practice, it's not even worth
it to bother the base mxc driver with it. Instead, frontend can make some informed choice by
probing for the hardware and tweaking requested device caps accordingly.
On Allwinner B288, we disable both hwrot (done in software in kernel and terribly, ie not worth it)
and hwinverse (no support whatsoever). On NXT we'll keep both on, as the kernel driver seems
to be using the hardware properly .
CBB now handles nightmode correctly (by deferring to Lua), so we no longer
need to do monkey dances about disabling it when hw invert is missing.
canUseCBB cap is resolved by generic device re-configuring blitbuffer
on the go, so as to avoid repeating the same thing in every device driver.
The dev setting can now flip cbb on the go, so one can gloat at the near
meaningless perf difference - 2Mp draw is 15ms Lua / 10ms C on 1GHz Cortex A7.
* Uses bunch of new plumbing in base to configure screen rotations in hardware (koreader normally does this via blit buffer rotations, except for android).
* Some PB specific kludges that used to pollute core/framebuffer_linux are brought into PBs frontend driver.
move state change event to higher level function so it will be called after powerd.is_fl_on is updated.
makes _setIntensity redundant so get rid of it
obsoletes #6667
Only with CreDocuments (as no way currently to highlight links
in PDFs).
Tab or Shift-Tab to select next or previous links.
Press to follow (or show footnote in popup, and in there Press
to follow), back to go back.
A BackgroundRunner plugin instance will stop running
(rescheduling a check every 2 seconds) when there is no
(or no more) job to run.
Clients of this service now have to emit an event after
adding a job into PluginShare.backgroundJobs, so an
already loaded but stopped BackgroundRunner can notice
it and start running again.
Out of the box, it behaves exactly as native pocketbook apps should, ie aggressive
standby, but no freezing at operations in progress.
Config UI will be done via koplugin that will also do adaptive standby. This is
because the API is now device independent (albeit PB is the only implemented user).
