In some versions of the /ebrmain/config/extensions.cfg file there is a
comment #ebrcfg. This will not match the regex and crashes koreader as
the table is empty.
Add a check to ensure the table is not empty while reading extensions
from the default file.
Schedule wifi keep-alive on wifi start but do not reschedule when
connection is lost. This will make sure this code is not run when
wifi is disabled again saving some battery and cpu cycles.
Function `SetSubtaskInfo` takes only chars as a valid book. Since
filename can be `nil` (not a char) the crash would happen. This
Change avoids the crash by using a char type nil value. See:
`int SetSubtaskInfo(int task, int subtask, const char *name, const char *book);`
Fixes#8053Fixes#8392 too
Fixes#8743 last issue
With the inkview library inverting the screen seems possible but needs some
discussion with the developers of Pocketbook. For now disable HWInvert so
this feature is not broken while we figure out how to change the invert with inkview.
This change drops the #koreader signature check.
This check prevents KOReader from modifying associations if something else has changed the file without putting a verbatim "#koreader" string back.
While this prevents KOReader from interfering with another application or the system trying to own the file, it also leads to hard to diagnose issues, when the user can inadvertently change associations without realising they’re doing so, and being unable to return back.
I've emailed with PocketBook about the problem with Wifi on the newer models. They explained the wrong constant was being used:

Since I made the previous hack and their suggestion seems to work on the PB741 color. I've made this PR to remove my hack.
It might be wise to also test this fix on older models.
Fixes#4747.
Apparently, inkview.NetConnect() doesn’t enable the Wi-Fi on its own,
this results in a failure if the device has been put into the sleep or
standby mode, when the Wi-Fi hardware is powered down.

The hyphenation of a word can be changed from its default

These overrides are stored in a per-language file, i.e:

* 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).
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.
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.
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.
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).
* Allow locking the gyro to the current screen mode (i.e., orientation).
* Tweak the "sticky rota" option to work both ways
* More rotation constant usage instead of magic numbers
* generic Device:info() function which returns the model
* add Device:canSuspend() and make it true in all devices that have suspend routines and the emulator
* also enable fake poweroff/reboot on the emulator
* add Device.home_dir
* add Device:hasExitOptions() and update menus & comments
