23 hoursutil/nvmutil: improved entropy in fallback_randLeah Rowe
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
23 hoursutil/nvmutil: remove /dev/random fallbackLeah Rowe
only use the old fallback, or /dev/urandom /dev/random blocks on some older unix machines, or in embedded environments that may never have enough entropy, causing the code to hang. urandom is most certainly expected to exist on pretty much anything since the mid 90s. i could probably re-add the arc4random setup for BSDs. i'll think about it. gotta do that portably too.

24 hoursutil/nvmutil: mitigate fast calls to randLeah Rowe
if someone calls rhex fast enough, the timestamp may not change. this mitigates that by adding a counter value to the mix Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

used when a random device isn't available, on old unix, or on certain chroot environments. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

31 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: code cleanupLeah Rowe
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
32 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: optimise pulse checkLeah Rowe
the last change was good, but this code, again, has to do these calculations 48,000 times a second. trivial on new computers. but now try it on a computer from 1992. we should try to make this as fast as possible :) older compilers especially don't optimise these checks. this patch shifts it to one subtraction and one unsigned comparison, rather than checking less than or greater than both. often used in... literally exactly this type of program. on a good compiler this will compile to an add, cmp and conditional jump. less readable, but the results (set 1 or 0) make it pretty obvious what it does, after a few seconds. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
32 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: clearer pulse decodingLeah Rowe
i turned this into abs() call earlier, but this isn't obviously readable by some people. make it absolutely clear what this does. also reduces use of syscalls. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

more knf-compliant Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: allow short sample readsLeah Rowe
fread() may return short reads, whereas the current code assumes either EOF or a full read. change if to a while. really, it's that simple. just loop until it's done. i probably b0rked this myself when refactoring the GNU code. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: don't exit in print_statsLeah Rowe
i treated ftell errors as fatal, but if fttell fails with ESPIPE, and someone's using -d, the program may exit immediately, even though there's no problem. instead, skip printing the offset (basically no debug). this fixes a bug that i introduced myself, when i forked this code, because i added that error check; the GNU code didn't have any check whatsoever. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: buffer calls to fread()Leah Rowe
we currently read small amounts of data with fread, repeatedly, which is quite taxing on the CPU, on very old systems. 48khz audio. 48000 calls to fread() per second? yeah. let's optimise this. performance now should be roughly O(1) in practise. this and the other recent changes means no modulo or division, reduced branching, memory memory roads, and lots of buffering. the buffering here is quite conservative, so the human won't notice any difference. we're cutting the number of times we call fread by a factor of several thousand, but you'll still see text scrolling down pretty quick, with minimal lag. the old GNU code i forked was terrible at this. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: make new pulse calculation clearerLeah Rowe
Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: tidy up pulse decodingLeah Rowe
make it clearer about next/old, in the loop. this also improves performance on older systems (cache the values first, don't re-calculate) again, this is GNU code. but you wouldn't know it, in my current version. i forked this from GRUB several years ago and started cleaning it for fun. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: split up handle_audio()Leah Rowe
the signal check should be its own function, for clearer understanding Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: tidy up handle_audioLeah Rowe
frame handling, error checks, pulse decoding and character decoding are all jumbled up. this patch separates them a bit, making it clearer. should also help codegen. this tool is dealing with high bandwidth text, which on slower computers may be cumbersome. every optimisation counts. not really relevant on newer systems. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: optimise ring buffer pos calcLeah Rowe
instead of computing next every time, just advance two indexes. another performance optimisation on older machines, especially old compilers, because it reduces the amount of logical branching. the old code was pretty much just advancing two indexes in lockstep, when getting the next pulse, but recalculating one of them based on the other, each time. this is yet another hangover from the old GNU code that i forked three years ago. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: don't use modulus on decodeLeah Rowe
it's slow on older compilers/systems that don't optimise. instead, we branch (cheaper) and just do an above or equal comparison), resetting appropriately or subtracting. should yield an actually useful performance gain, on older systems. a bit theoretical on modern systems, which optimise well (modern compilers will produce assembly code much like what the new C code is doing) Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursspkmodemrecv makefile: add -c to installLeah Rowe
a bit pedantic. but that's my intention. for backwards compatibility with older systems. this flag means: create the directory. on modern versions on all systems, it's the default behaviour. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
33 hoursutil/spkmodem-recv: further portability / cleanupLeah Rowe
i used a bunch of global variables. that's gone. added proper externs, including for errno. lots of old unix systems require this. this version should be perfectly polished and portable now. all status is now handled in a struct, making the code a bit easier to understand, because the variables now are clearly pertinent to the state of the decoder, rather than being seemingly random. some indentation reduced. also cleaned up ftell/feof usage again. the new code is a bit more robust when dealing with piped input(which is literally what this program takes, exclusively) i started my cleanup of this tool from GNU GRUB in 2023. i finished it today. also the Openbsd pledge is more portable now (code made to compile on pre-pledge openbsd as well) Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
