09:27:25  <planetmaker> hm... Rubidium maybe it's getting time to change the pf.wait... settings to 255 by default?
09:27:53  <planetmaker> that question is asked more and more frequently it seems to me.
09:28:33  <Rubidium> people shouldn't mix signal types if they don't know what they're doing
09:29:15  <Rubidium> and trains turning around in PBS blocks when it's 100% certain there's no route in that direction is the 'main' cause, not the signal settings
09:29:24  <planetmaker> Nah, how could you not mix them? And it's not like they don't know what they're doing. Even with correct signaling it's annoying.
09:30:21  <planetmaker> it breaks a perfect network when you have a small jam.
09:30:29  <Rubidium> but... the train turning around isn't annoying, it's the not turning around back when it can't go into that direction
09:30:34  *** DephNet[Paul] [~paul@host86-153-10-155.range86-153.btcentralplus.com] has joined #openttd
09:30:38  <planetmaker> yes
09:31:24  <planetmaker> but in most cases, nowadays one-way signals are used. So... turning around is useless in most cases anyway
09:31:48  <planetmaker> the turn-around setting was mainly useful when you only had two-way signals.
09:35:03  <FloSoft> planetmaker: yes that makes more problems then solve them
09:35:20  <FloSoft> if a train's stuck, you always have to manually let him drive over the red signal
09:35:54  <FloSoft> that turning around annoys if you have only some kind of high traffic

10:00:49  * OwenS burns OpenSolaris CD
10:04:08  <Tekky> I am currently working on a patch which I will call "custom signal routes" or something like that. This patch will allow you to define all possible routes from one PBS signal to the next signal and modify the pathfinder cost for these individual routes. This patch will hopefully be very useful for making trains select the best route when entering/leaving a station, thereby hindering the...
10:04:10  <Tekky> ...other trains less who are entering/leaving the station. The reason I decided to make this patch is because it happens often that trains make pathfinding decisions which severely hinder other trains.
10:04:52  <Tekky> However, it is a lot of work to understand all the pathfinding code of OpenTTD :(
10:05:08  <TrueBrain> OwenS: why?
10:06:01  <OwenS> TrueBrain: For the server I'm building
10:06:28  <OwenS> My primary attractions are ZFS and Zones
10:06:57  <OwenS> Any more questions? I'm gonna have to turn this machine off to steal it's disk drive ;-)
10:07:11  <TrueBrain> enjoy :)

10:11:02  <Noldo> Tekky: what do you need those custom routes for?
10:14:45  <planetmaker> <Alberth> I shall need to dig up my Dune2 files soon :) <-- I shall do that then, too :-)
10:17:00  <Tekky> Noldo: I have a ro-ro station with 12 platforms and trains enter the station from the main line using 6 tracks. However, it often happens that trains take the shortest route into the station, instead of taking the route into the station which hinder the trains on the other 5 tracks least.
10:17:27  *** LadyHawk [LadyHawk@78-105-102-180.zone3.bethere.co.uk] has joined #openttd
10:18:47  <Tekky> Noldo: Therefore, I see the need to be able to influence the pathfinder cost of all possible routes myself, so that trains prefer taking routes which hinder other trains least.
10:19:09  <Noldo> how many inputs?
10:19:27  <Noldo> ah 6
10:19:56  <LadyHawk> i missed the rest of the conversation but i 'trick' trains on crossings
10:20:34  <Noldo> make the pathfinder look at all 6 trains trying to enter and solve the problem so that as many as possible can proceed
10:20:38  <LadyHawk> a train has 1 tile to go either left or right, and it'll choose left.. if at that same junction, there's a 90 degree slab on the tile, it'll choose right.. makes no sense but i trick trains that way
10:22:00  <LadyHawk> trick em all to choose paths that have the least chance of hindering other trains that way.. yeah it still happens, but not often
10:24:07  <LadyHawk> i also limit their choices.. 1 huge junction where 20 tracks merge into 18 tracks.. each of the 20 tracks has 2 exit options only, not 18
10:24:37  <LadyHawk> so if a train decides to hinder another.. the other has a second chance to go free
10:24:49  <LadyHawk> i feel like i make no sense
10:24:49  <LadyHawk> lol
10:25:42  <Tekky> Noldo: Yes, it would be the ideal solution if the pathfinder would detect all possible conflicts with other trains and make pathfinding decisions accordingly. I have looked into such a system myself, however it would be very complex. Therefore, I think the best solution for now would be to implement these custom signal routes, which does not automatically take other trains into account....

10:25:43  <Tekky> ...Instead, it only allows the user to influence the pathfinding cost of individual routes.
10:26:46  <LadyHawk> i'd love a pathfinding system like that though lol, maybe if someone gets bored enough for 2 weeks straight and works on it..
10:26:58  <LadyHawk> if it ever does get made, it's prolly not gonna get touched again ever XD
10:27:45  *** Exl [~myself@cp1224652-a.roemd1.lb.home.nl] has joined #openttd
10:30:30  <Tekky> LadyHawk: I have been thinking a lot about pathfinding in which trains influence each other's pathfinding decisions. This would allow cool things such as bi-directional double track, as I have described in the following article: http://wiki.openttd.org/Realistic_Path_Based_Signalling
10:32:53  <Noldo> when a train does pathfinding will it plot the whole route all the way to the destination tile by tile?
10:34:37  <Tekky> Noldo: Yes, it will, but not necessarily "tile by tile", as track segments are cached in YAPF.
10:36:15  <Noldo> I might be good idea to make rough signal to signal route first and then more detailed routing only on shorter scale
10:37:45  <Tekky> LadyHawk: Yes, there are many possibilities to influence trains' pathfinding decisions using the methods you described, for example with 90 degree turns. However, I consider such methods as "ugly hacks". It would be much nicer and also more reliable if you could simply define all permissible routes and their pathfinding cost explicitly. That is what I am currently working on.
10:39:48  <Tekky> Noldo: Depends what you mean by "rough". The pathfinder must know exactly whether it is able to reach a certain location if it takes a certain route. For this, the pathfinder must examine every individual tile. Only after it has done this at least once, can the performance be improved by caching the results.
10:41:02  <Noldo> make a cache of routes from signal to signal
10:43:26  <Tekky> YAPF actually caches straight track segments, i.e. track with no switches in between. Even if there are several signals on a straight piece of track, it caches the whole straight piece of track as one segment. This is slightly more efficient.
10:44:08  <LadyHawk> very true Tekky
10:45:33  <LadyHawk> i tried to make a bidirection passthrough station a month ago or so but the only way i could manage that was to have entrance track, exit track, entrance track, exit track and somehow make them crossover later on.. it was a mess so i just gave up
10:46:14  <Noldo> Tekky: will it count trains or red signals on those segments?
10:47:16  <LadyHawk> only image that confuses me is the last track image before the first station image
10:47:46  <OwenS> Yaay! Solaris has entered X11 :-D
10:47:58  <LadyHawk> regular track train makes strong reservation.. i can understand that.. but surely the one on the other track needs a strong reservation to get out of deadlock's way
10:48:20  <LadyHawk> thinkin bout it.. hmm.. it doesn't have to on that image cuz there's no trains from opposite side coming
10:48:26  <LadyHawk> nm ;p
10:48:31  *** KenjiE20 [~KenjiE20@92.21.128.187] has joined #openttd
10:48:47  <Tekky> Noldo: When using cached data, the pathfinder does not take red signals into account. That is why the pathfinder only uses cached data for distant track segments. It does not use cached data in the immediate vicinity, so it can take red signals and PBS reservations into account.
10:49:33  <TrueBrain> playing Dune2 with keyboard is no fun :(
10:50:20  <LadyHawk> dune 2 <3
10:50:40  <LadyHawk> i haven't played that in so long cuz i know of a horrible bug that just takes all the fun away ;(
10:51:01  <TrueBrain> did you know that when yous tart a level, you start at negative credits
10:51:07  <TrueBrain> but that they don't have an icon for this? :p
10:51:22  <LadyHawk> no
10:51:23  <LadyHawk> lol
10:51:39  <LadyHawk> were you the one that was messing with dune2?
10:51:56  <LadyHawk> maybe you can 'mess' in a bugfix? XD
10:52:00  <Tekky> LadyHawk: A "weak" reservation tells other trains: You may use this track as long as you promise not to get stuck on it, because I will be needing this track myself very soon, otherwise I risk getting stuck on the opposite track (which would cause a deadlock).
10:54:01  <LadyHawk> Tekky for what i read on the page you linked it sounds very promising
10:54:28  <LadyHawk> but there's so many things to keep into account it's just... heck, must be confusing to code... long long days of work
10:55:04  <Tekky> LadyHawk: Bi-directional passthrough stations are now possible with the new PBS signals in OpenTTD. The article I gave you was made at a time before these new PBS signals existed. This link explains how to make a bi-directional pass-through station with the new PBS signals: http://wiki.openttd.org/Yet_Another_PBS_Patch#Basic_two-way_station
10:55:49  <LadyHawk> yeah those are the ones i used
10:55:57  <LadyHawk> but i dont stick any signals at the station though
10:56:04  <LadyHawk> the junction is sitting right next to the station at both sides
10:56:13  <LadyHawk> it reserves a path to safe stopping point so there's no need for those
10:56:47  <LadyHawk> just try duplicating that into a 10 track station with so many trains on it that it needs at least 2 entrance and 2 exit tracks on both sides
10:57:02  <LadyHawk> trains will horribly start to block eachother off
10:58:28  <LadyHawk> pf.path_backoff_interval 	 20 	 Ticks between checks for a free path. Increase if you have a slow computer.
10:58:34  <LadyHawk> i might have a look at reducing that
10:58:42  <Tekky> <LadyHawk>	it reserves a path to safe stopping point so there's no need for those <--- I disagree. A train entering a platform will reserve a route outside the station, thereby blocking a junction, if you don't have the platforms surrounded by signals.
10:59:00  <LadyHawk> i haven't noticed that
10:59:04  <LadyHawk> lol
10:59:54  <LadyHawk> the route gets unreserved behind them
10:59:57  <LadyHawk> leaving the way clear
11:01:01  <Tekky> LadyHawk: Did you activate the option to display PBS reservations?
11:01:17  <LadyHawk> yeh
11:01:32  <LadyHawk> i like knowing what my trains are doing
11:01:40  <Tekky> LadyHawk: Yes, the path behind the train gets unreserved, I am talking about the path in front of the train.
11:01:55  <LadyHawk> oh, no it wont try to reserve that till it wants to leave the station
11:02:29  <LadyHawk> cuz the signals reserve the path to a safe stopping point.. nothing after it
11:02:37  <Tekky> LadyHawk: What version of OpenTTD are you using? It does with me, if the station platforms are not surrounded by signals.
11:02:46  <LadyHawk> dunno, whatever latest version was
11:02:52  <LadyHawk> not the nightlies
11:04:50  <LadyHawk> my hd got wiped recently but it was uh.. 0.7.3 i think
11:05:05  <LadyHawk> i think i still have screenshots
11:05:07  * LadyHawk digs
11:07:33  <LadyHawk> ah
11:07:40  <LadyHawk> you're right
11:08:16  <Tekky> LadyHawk: I am using a recent nightly build and it behaves differently with me. However, I am quite sure that this (possibly controversial) feature to reserve routes past a station platform was introduced by michi_cc during the development of YAPP, before YAPP was included into trunk. Therefore, it should exist both in trunk and in the 0.7 branch.
11:08:20  <LadyHawk> i dont have the signals at the entrance but i do have them at the exit
11:08:43  <LadyHawk> so i suppose you're right with the bi-whatever it was stations
11:08:56  <LadyHawk> http://ladyhawk.flawlesscorruption.net/screens/wee.PNG
11:09:31  <Alberth> LadyHawk: 0.7.3 does not exist, maybe 0.6.3 ?
11:09:55  <LadyHawk> that screeny's a month old
11:10:01  <LadyHawk> i musta remembered wrong
11:10:21  <Tekky> LadyHawk: Hmmm, platform entrances and exits? I don't understand? In a bi-directional pass-through station, platform entrances are also platform exits, since the platforms are bi-directional.
11:10:58  <LadyHawk> yeah... i said you were right with those
11:11:52  <LadyHawk> the screeny i linked only has trains entering from 1 side
11:12:19  <Tekky> Alberth: The new YAPP PBS signals were first introduced in version 0.7.0.
11:12:38  <LadyHawk> so if that station turned into bi-directional.. you'd be right
11:12:47  <Alberth> it say 0.7.1 at the top :)
11:12:48  <LadyHawk> signals both ends

11:16:58  <Tekky> I don't quite understand why michi_cc changed the behavior of YAPP to reserve routes past a station platform, since a station platform should always be a safe waiting location, in my opinion.
11:18:14  <OwenS> Tekky: Not necessarily
11:18:26  <Ammler> Tekky: to support that: http://www.openttdcoop.org/blog/2009/07/12/asynchronous-srnw-stations/ ;-)
11:19:01  <Ammler> what stops you from placing a pbs signal after the plattform?
11:20:39  <OwenS> Whew! Nearly typed root password on wrong keyboard!
11:21:44  <LadyHawk> dummy trains o_O
11:21:49  <LadyHawk> i dont like those
11:21:54  <LadyHawk> expenses you dont need
11:22:23  <Tekky> Ammler: Yes, I always place signals on the exit of a platform, also because it looks better.
11:22:54  <Ammler> well, that station uses some complex things but still looks much better then your, imo. :-P
11:22:56  <OwenS> There are also situations, such as when using stations as penalties, that stoppiung at them is a really bad idea
11:23:28  <LadyHawk> late in game stopping a train for only a second could cost you lots of money
11:23:31  <LadyHawk> lol
11:24:09  <LadyHawk> thats why instead of merging trains at a station, i had to make up junctions that would merge tracks into other tracks that lead to the station
11:24:25  <Ammler> you think, it isn't true?
11:24:28  <LadyHawk> divide the traffic over the whole station
11:24:47  <LadyHawk> instead of trying to merge 5 into the corner of it

11:34:06  <KenjiE20> ah, it's the template
11:34:20  <KenjiE20> what's on mine --> "Mail (will not be published) (required)"
11:34:25  <Ammler> LadyHawk: the trains which do the effective transport to the drop-off station don't have any load order, so they need to be sure, there is something to load.
11:35:05  <Ammler> so the dummy train loads full and transfer the whole to the "main" train.
11:35:48  <Ammler> more about srnw is on our wiki.
11:35:55  <LadyHawk> aha

12:41:20  <LadyHawk> i've had issues with it in the past, none recently though
12:41:27  <TrueBrain> dune2 now keeps on failing when trying to move units .. sucks ...
12:41:59  <LadyHawk> or you can try to disable synchronization altogether and see how that works out

12:42:31  * LadyHawk shivers at the thought of shopping
12:42:39  <OwenS> OK somethings up... not detecting my SATA drive =/
12:44:37  <Chruker> I've had it running a few days with both timesync servers and also with it disabled and it still lost the clock. WHen I manually ask it to update the clock it does fail the timesync, but since it still loses clock with the sync disabled I'm not sure it is it.
12:44:56  <LadyHawk> odd
12:45:06  <Chruker> Although I guess there could be something else timesync and failing silently.
12:45:16  <Chruker> *else timesync'ing
12:45:17  <LadyHawk> how does it 'lose' the clock... does it fall behind every time?
12:45:47  <LadyHawk> or is it random jumps hours ahead, hours behind etc
12:46:09  <Chruker> After the computer have been off for a while (mostly nights) and it boot up, the clock is just behind.
12:46:25  <planetmaker> TrueBrain, hm... here starting it in dosbox it works without any modification
12:46:32  <Chruker> When I unplug the power and do shorter reboots it doesnt loose time.
12:46:40  <planetmaker> hm... but the ovl is in the dir :-P
12:46:48  <LadyHawk> typically a clock on battery will start falling behind if the battery is getting low.. the timesyncs failing might explain why it's never set back to the proper time
12:48:03  <LadyHawk> if it is the battery it'll keep falling behind further and further, until you get the dreaded "settings reset to default, press f1 to continue" thing and you know for sure you have to get a new battery lol
12:48:49  <Rubidium> Chruker: is the clock going too fast or too slow?

13:05:35  <Eddi|zuHause> <Tekky> However, it is a lot of work to understand all the pathfinding code of OpenTTD :( <- afair YAPF has code that checks the first 10 signals for their state (red/green), and modify the penalty based on that, you should probably hook into that code

13:23:21  <Tekky> Eddi|zuHause: Well, that would work somewhat, but it wouldn't be ideal, as the pathfinding information in the distance would be incorrect, then.

16:31:46  <Tekky> <Eddi|zuHause> hm, i think that's a minor problem or even a desirable side effect ... you primarily will want to avoid blockings on THIS junction, and worry about the next junction later <---- Yes, but if the user changes the pathfinder weights significantly on the custom signals, there will be a big difference between the results of the local pathfinder and the distant pathfinder. For...
16:31:48  <Tekky> ...example, as long as the custom signal is outside the range of the local pathfinder, the pathfinder will consider the junction with the custom signal to be the shortest route and therefore select that route. However, as soon as the train approaches the junction with the custom signals and the custom signals thereby getting in range of the local pathfinder, the pathfinder may find this...
16:31:49  <Tekky> ...route to now be significantly longer and therefore decide to turn around and select a completely different route.
16:34:05  <Eddi|zuHause> well, then make the number of signals to be checked configurable (and have a setting for "infinity")
16:34:37  <Eddi|zuHause> just the number of signals previously was limited because the signal states can't be cached
16:35:20  <Eddi|zuHause> so it could be a huge performance hit if you send trains across the entire map
16:37:52  <Tekky> Eddi|zuHause: I see no reason why the weight of the user-defined routes should not be included in the YAPF cache. The YAPF cache can simply be invalidated whenever the user makes changes to the routes defined by the custom signal.
16:38:43  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but that assumes that the weights can't be made dynamic (e.g. for possible load balancing)
16:40:15  <Rubidium> you can't cache it in YAPF anyway as it doesn't cache signal-signal
16:41:58  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: well, that can be easily solved by treating "active" signals like junction tiles, i.e. have segments end there
16:42:35  <Eddi|zuHause> the existing "passive" signals would not need to be changed
16:43:05  <Tekky> Eddi|zuHause: Currently, I have no plans to make them dynamic. I think it would be nice to have programmable signals that can be scripted, such as in the programming language Squirrel, since that language is already used by the AI. However, my current project is far less ambitious.
16:43:40  <Eddi|zuHause> Tekky: it doesn't need to be in the plan, but it should be considered for future expandability
16:43:52  <Eddi|zuHause> it's a design decision that should be made carefully
16:46:05  <Tekky> Rubidium: Yes, one of my custom signals would have to trigger and end of segment in the YAPF cache and start a new segment.
16:46:36  <Tekky> correction:
16:46:42  <Tekky> Rubidium: Yes, one of my custom signals would have to trigger an end of segment in the YAPF cache and start a new segment.

16:54:26  <Tekky> Eddi|zuHause: Yes, I agree that it is important to make such design decisions carefully. Actually, I am thinking whether I should simply make my patch implement "player-defined routes with custom pathfinder weight", so that these custom routes can be linked to every track piece instead of only to signals. However, when using PBS signals, all pathfinding decisions are made at signals, so it...
16:54:28  <Tekky> ...seems most logical to link the routes to signals, at least when using PBS signals.
16:56:28  <Tekky> I am not sure whether to implement this as a PBS feature or as a general feature.

18:05:34  <Ammler> nothing really special there either.
18:05:42  <Ammler> just no call for around 5 mins.
18:05:45  <TrueBrain> I once notice on a server (production server, several M hits per minute), that the HD did a spin down .. caused a nice stall for the next 15 seconds :p

18:06:56  <Alberth> yes, if only the network with all those independent users were :p

18:09:47  <OwenS> As I have just discovered, Solaris can suffer from the same "wrong drivers in initrd" problems as Linux
18:09:52  <Ammler> how do you "trace" it?
18:09:54  <OwenS> Fortunately, fixing them is very simple
18:10:10  <TrueBrain> Ammler: depending what is going on .. first of, check the network activity
18:10:13  <TrueBrain> next: check IO
18:10:20  <TrueBrain> and if the load increased, check which process caused it
18:10:30  <TrueBrain> but al that can only be done WHEN it happens .. or you need to enable extended logging ;)
18:10:56  <TrueBrain> for example, the nodes I manage are normally running default logging .. network, IO, processes, etc etc
18:11:02  <Ammler> well, on brians server, a restart of apache solved it mostly everytime
18:11:05  <TrueBrain> when things start to spike, extended logging kicks in
18:11:17  <TrueBrain> next time, check the amount of memory it consumes
18:11:26  <TrueBrain> for openttd.org we recycle the httpds every 24hour
18:11:38  <TrueBrain> lighttpd currently is under daemontools control, being recycled faster I suppose
18:11:59  <TrueBrain> (simply because after a while it consumes so much memory, it starts to fail)
18:12:11  <TrueBrain> svnserve needs a reset every week, as it leaves stall connection all over the place
18:12:23  <Ammler> he restarts the server at least 3-5 times per day
18:12:34  <OwenS> TrueBrain: Try nginx
18:12:35  <TrueBrain> then someone should look into it in more detail :)
18:12:42  <OwenS> nginx > lighthttpd
18:12:47  <TrueBrain> OwenS: considered it .. even have Cherokee running next to it
18:12:58  <TrueBrain> but lighttpd does exactly those things we need .. and Cherokee is not mature enough :p
18:13:15  <TrueBrain> currently things are 'stable', so it is fine for now
18:13:34  <TrueBrain> (and more stable then those times we used apache :s)
18:13:37  <OwenS> Resarting every 24h is not my idea of stable :p
18:13:53  <TrueBrain> well, it has to do with proxies and giving files of several megs big :p
18:14:03  <OwenS> nginx is fine with that kind of load without bloat
18:14:04  <TrueBrain> (like requesting certain SVN revisions via trac)
18:14:11  <TrueBrain> they said that about lighttpd too
18:14:21  <TrueBrain> it turns out that what we have, is very ... special :)

18:14:58  <OwenS> TrueBrain: No, lighthttpd has a memory leak bug which has been reported which they classify as no bug
18:15:03  <OwenS> nginx doesn't
18:15:08  <TrueBrain> it doesn't have a memory leak bug
18:15:17  <TrueBrain> it just consumes massive amounts of memory in certain scenario
18:15:29  <TrueBrain> so please stop the commercial for nginx
18:15:35  <TrueBrain> I am sure when we install that, it will give problems too :)
18:15:40  <TrueBrain> (like all httpds did so far)
18:15:57  <TrueBrain> "if it aint broken, dont fix it", is what we currently say :)
18:15:57  <OwenS> It's not a memory leak in lighthttpd as such. It's more that it allocates lots of memory to store the file, mallocs a bit, frees big chunk, and malloc is left with big lump it can't return to the system

18:16:19  <TrueBrain> when you request a 100 MiB file from a proxy
18:16:21  <TrueBrain> it allocates that
18:16:25  <TrueBrain> there things go wrong

18:16:28  <TrueBrain> morning Nite_Owl
18:16:41  <Nite_Owl> Hello TrueBrain
18:16:51  <TrueBrain> OwenS: we had people downloading such files at 2 kbit/sec
18:16:58  <TrueBrain> you do the math on that ;)
18:17:14  <TrueBrain> files and stuff are loaded from one side of the kernel to the other .. takes no real memory :)
18:17:18  <OwenS> TrueBrain: (Last nginx advert) nginx doesn't allocate such huge buffers - it reads as fast as it can write out the socket and no more
18:17:28  <TrueBrain> Cherokee too
18:17:35  <TrueBrain> but then there were other problems .... ;)
18:17:39  <TrueBrain> no httpd is a saint
18:17:51  <TrueBrain> this works, so why replace it? When it starts to fail, we will replace it
18:17:53  <OwenS> No, but nginx is pretty good (Unless you need old-style CGI)
18:18:06  <TrueBrain> oh! Yet another advert!
18:18:09  <Ammler> again :-)
18:18:12  <OwenS> lool
18:18:14  <TrueBrain> how often can you say nginx?
18:18:37  <TrueBrain> please .. stop it .. this setup works, how insane it might be. The future might hold other things .. for now, it is enough :)

18:27:27  <TrueBrain> OwenS: hehe :) I know that feeling :)
18:27:49  <TrueBrain> planetmaker: I remember vaguely that Rubidium tried it, and failed at some level .. dunno what the problem was .. maybe he still remembers :)
18:27:52  <TrueBrain> it was something silly
18:28:02  <Rubidium> something with the PPC IIRC
18:28:08  <TrueBrain> (and not something we could fix)
18:28:20  <planetmaker> TrueBrain: yeah. Well, the binary for, iirc renum, didn't run on my mac
18:28:21  <Rubidium> might have or might not have been fixed by now
18:29:12  <TrueBrain> ah, yes, the one having asm, which is not supported by most of our targets
18:29:15  <TrueBrain> the other not working on MAC
18:29:17  <TrueBrain> Mac
18:34:12  <planetmaker> TrueBrain: well. It works, if compiled natively.
18:34:20  <planetmaker> So that's a problem basically of the CF :-)
18:34:42  <TrueBrain> if I remember correctly, Rubidium rolled out an OSX update last time
18:34:45  <TrueBrain> so maybe now it works ..
18:34:56  <planetmaker> we could try :-)
18:35:11  * planetmaker can easily say so... little to do for me :-P
18:35:45  <Rubidium> DaleStan: for the compile farm we basically need a way to determine the version, named findversion.sh, and a way to build bundles easily e.g. make bundle_zip. See http://rbijker.net/openttd/renum-for-cf.diff
18:36:30  <TrueBrain> blegh, and it needs Boost?
18:36:32  <TrueBrain> sucks
18:36:54  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: yes, it needs boost

18:37:34  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: btw, the findversion stuff we might just copy from the CF to all projects .. as they all tend to need it :)
18:37:40  <TrueBrain> (and we are copying over the same file :p)
18:37:50  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: most need special needs
18:37:58  <TrueBrain> only the SRC_DIR, not?
18:38:01  <Rubidium> e.g. is there or isn't there a src/ directory
18:38:32  <Rubidium> furthermore grfcodec/nforenum seem to use ${REV}E instead of ${REV}M for modified builds
18:38:47  <TrueBrain> hehe, something to improve, I say ;)
18:39:17  <TrueBrain> but okay, the CF normally only compiles non-modified versions

18:55:37  <Rubidium> 90% is rubbish?

18:55:51  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: conservative estimate ;)
18:56:01  <Rubidium> then 10% must be good
18:56:21  <OwenS> Note to self: Get gigabit network
18:56:31  <Rubidium> which equates to... given say 10 channels... a full day of good TV

18:59:07  <TrueBrain> oeh, segfaulting DosBox, cool :)
18:59:07  <planetmaker> uhm... the ppc emulator/simulator? Yes
18:59:12  <Rubidium> in other words, does http://rbijker.net/openttd/nforenum-custom-r2127E-ppc.tar.gz work too?
19:00:38  <planetmaker> hm. no. It segfaults
19:01:47  <Rubidium> planetmaker: so big endian nforenum doesn't work
19:02:00  <planetmaker> I'm not 100% confident to what degree that emulator works correctly here, though
19:02:25  <planetmaker> I'd want to test a different big endian ppc binary before I'm 100% sure :-)
19:02:48  <planetmaker> though I *think* I did that ages ago with some ... openoffice or so.
19:03:14  <OwenS> I'd say shame PPC did away with little endian mode.. but actually little endian mode wasn't ever real little endian :p
19:03:18  <TrueBrain> grrr, I forgot how tricky COM-files work ...
19:03:44  <Rubidium> planetmaker: is bash still big endian with your version?
19:04:05  <Rubidium> it was big endian in (at least some versions of) 10.4
19:04:37  <OwenS> I thought PPC-LE was done away with on the PP64 (G5) and newer processors?
19:04:49  <DaleStan> OwenS: rbx*32 !? 32bit only allows 0,1,2,4,8 as the scale. And I see no indication in the Intel programmer's manual that the REX prefixes extend the scale field of SIB.
19:05:31  <OwenS> DaleStan: You're reading too far into ASM I've written in an IRC conversation. Particualrly when I haven't been writing x86 ASM for a while
19:06:02  <DaleStan> Well, that's why I made 8 the scale and 32 the base. 32's not a valid scale, but 8 is.
19:06:34  <Rubidium> planetmaker: could also be that my boost isn't endian aware or so
19:07:17  <OwenS> I always forget the little silly restrictions of x86 like that (Only 2 bits for scale?!)

20:03:47  <OwenS> PF?
20:03:52  <Eddi|zuHause> if you earn 6, you should maybe consider switching jobs ;)
20:03:57  <TrueBrain> Parity
20:04:08  <OwenS> I'd presume so
20:04:15  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: he didn't define a timespan :p
20:04:20  <TrueBrain> OwenS: DosBox says not :(
20:04:24  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: 6 an hour is acceptable for me ;)
20:04:36  <OwenS> Actually no
20:04:41  <TrueBrain> oh .. even .. lol
20:04:42  <Spoons> TrueBrain: Ooh, you're writing an x86 interpreter / translator?  What host language?
20:04:42  <OwenS> Isn't PF 1 when even parity?

20:05:15  <TrueBrain> Spoons: C (and small parts C++)
20:05:23  <TrueBrain> emulator layer is pure C
20:05:33  <TrueBrain> tnx OwenS
20:05:51  <Spoons> That's not interesting, there's plenty of those. :(
20:05:57  <OwenS> I was thinking SHR for a moment :p
20:06:01  <TrueBrain> when is it 'interesting' in your book?
20:06:24  <Belugas> something flashy, full of buttons, that rumble and shake all over...
20:06:28  <OwenS> w00t! Music copy finished!
20:06:30  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Why are you building it?
20:07:08  <Spoons> Interesting is not NIHing something, or a novel host platform, or a translator of any kind.
20:07:13  <TrueBrain> blathijs: it started with me wanted to look inside Dune2 executable .. finding not many tools who can do it (although I now found IDA) .. got a little bit bigger with me wondering how hard it could be to decompile a 16bit application with modern computers .. turning out to be a big project :p
20:07:32  <Eddi|zuHause> why do i think Civ4:Colonization is boring?
20:07:51  <OwenS> And now the video copy... I think this may take all night, something I'd prefer it not to, as my machine doesn't make a good sleeping partner
20:07:51  <Yexo> the original colonizations is way more fun
20:07:52  <Eddi|zuHause> it does have neither the feel of Civ4 nor of Colonization
20:07:53  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: because 90% of stuff is crap?
20:08:03  <blathijs> TrueBrain: ida is pretty nice, yeah :-)
20:08:09  <TrueBrain> OwenS: ghehehehehe :p
20:08:10  <Rubidium> and because Civ II was good, there must be 10 crappy versions
20:08:28  <TrueBrain> blathijs: yup, it is :) But I have to say ... I like my decompiler more :) Somehow I can do more in C than I can with asm :p
20:08:30  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Hehe, decompiling is nasty, especially when you want to do it statically (ie, without actually running the code)
20:08:32  *** Spoons is now known as FauxFaux
20:08:43  <TrueBrain> blathijs: that turned out to be impossible
20:08:47  <TrueBrain> so now it is a JIT decompiler :p
20:08:56  <TrueBrain> it stores what it has seen
20:08:56  <Eddi|zuHause> i believe there are way more than 10 versions (including alpha centauri and colonization)
20:09:02  <TrueBrain> and makes a static binary of that later on :)
20:09:17  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Cool. You really have too much time, haven't you? :-p
20:09:28  <TrueBrain> well, I wasn't planning on spending so much time on it ..
20:09:35  <TrueBrain> although .. much time .. hitting the 60 hours or so now
20:09:41  <TrueBrain> so still within reason
20:09:50  <TrueBrain> (well, 60 programming hours :p)
20:10:39  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: I reckon blathijs can use some of your free time for maintaining the debian package ;)
20:10:45  <blathijs> :-)

20:12:54  <TrueBrain> well, it is not specified what it should do, but DosBox suggest it shouldn't do anything ..
20:13:56  <blathijs> Did you check the intel manuals? I think those are really good
20:14:08  <TrueBrain> they suck, but yeah, I have them here
20:14:14  <TrueBrain> doesn't change the fact it is not specified ;)
20:14:23  <OwenS> AMD manuals say OF, SF, ZF, PF and CF. AF is undefined
20:14:33  <OwenS> AKA AF may be anything
20:14:35  <TrueBrain> yup
20:14:39  <TrueBrain> but I wonder why DosBox makes it 1
20:14:48  <TrueBrain> makes it hard to compare with my results you see :p
20:15:03  <OwenS> Perhaps the processors do that and some app relies on it?
20:15:29  <TrueBrain> okay, maybe I should word this differently:
20:15:34  <TrueBrain> DosBox source code doesn't redefine AF
20:15:36  <TrueBrain> yet it changes
20:15:48  <OwenS> Aah

20:22:48  <TrueBrain> OwenS: do you by any chance know when the 'nested task' flag is set and unset?
20:23:25  <Aali> it's set whenever you nest a task, and unset when you unnest it \o/
20:23:47  <TrueBrain> why do I get this urge to kick someone ... :p
20:24:01  <OwenS> You're emulating real mode, correct? In that case, it should never be touched IIRC; thats all to do with protected mode and hardware task switching and is royally ugly and completely unused
20:24:12  <Aali> what he said
20:24:22  <TrueBrain> tnx OwenS
20:24:36  <TrueBrain> yeah, no diff! :)
20:25:13  <OwenS> I believe it's set when a task does a call far task_segment:any_random_ignored_address and unset when a task does a retf. Or something like that
20:25:20  <Aali> well, actually, hardware task switching is okay, however it's less flexible and not any faster than doing it yourself
20:25:37  <OwenS> Aali: And nobody uses it. And AMD64 doesn't have it.
20:25:44  <Aali> indeed
20:26:07  <OwenS> And it's also slower but this is completely irrelevant when most of the time is spent doing other stuff anyway

23:18:07  <TrueBrain> OwenS: the Overflow Flag on a SHL
23:18:09  <Eddi|zuHause> conceptual question: if you want to make a static binary from the results of a JIT compiler, doesn't that require that every part of the code is actually run at least once?
23:18:13  <TrueBrain> what do you think it should be?
23:18:26  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: yup! Which is the tricky part ..
23:18:31  <TrueBrain> but the good part: it doesn't have to happen at once
23:18:45  <TrueBrain> if I give you the static binary, and you come at a point you miss something, it will exit, tell you about it
23:18:49  <TrueBrain> you give me the info it prints you
23:18:52  <TrueBrain> and I can make you a new binary
23:19:05  <TrueBrain> of course it is not ideal, but the best that can be done :)
23:19:39  <TrueBrain> OwenS: the reason I ask is because I followed the docs I have here, but DosBox does something different :s
23:19:39  <Eddi|zuHause> you could include the original binary and the JIT compiler in the resulting binary for such cases ;)
23:20:03  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: that is also possible, yes
23:20:08  <TrueBrain> original binary is already there
23:20:15  <TrueBrain> as it needs to be loaded in the memory ;)
23:20:39  <TrueBrain> well .. when converted enough to C, I guess it will be needed less and less
23:20:54  <OwenS> TrueBrain: I don't know actually what the OF should be All I know is it's modified; AMD's docs aren't particularly specific :P
23:21:03  <TrueBrain> darn
23:21:10  <TrueBrain> OF := high-order bit of r/m <> (CF);
23:21:12  <TrueBrain> reads my docs
23:21:23  <TrueBrain> so I made that: (result >> 7) ^ CF
23:21:37  <TrueBrain> DosBox reads: (lf_resb ^ lf_var1b) & 0x80
23:22:11  <OwenS> Yeah, OF = CF xor MSB of result
23:22:17  <OwenS> Had to dig into the text :p
23:22:27  <TrueBrain> but that is not what DosBox does :s
23:22:54  <OwenS> Aah. Of the result only for 1 bit shifts. For longer shifts it's undefined
23:23:09  <TrueBrain> grr
23:23:11  <TrueBrain> of course :(
23:23:23  <TrueBrain> in which case DosBox is right
23:23:27  <OwenS> Make it work for one bit shifts and assume the processor does the same thing everywhere? :P
23:23:54  <TrueBrain> I think my implementation is more clean .. but it makes my test fail when comparing to DosBox
23:23:56  <TrueBrain> oh well ..
23:24:20  <OwenS> If you want a more difinitive reference, try looking at Bochs
23:24:27  <Eddi|zuHause> you need to exclude the "don't care" parts from the test case ;)
23:24:38  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: hard to exclude a single bit ;)

23:44:54  <OwenS> t-dialin.net? I presume that domain is out of date? :P

23:51:19  <Eddi|zuHause> what do you mean?
23:51:48  <Eddi|zuHause> i've had that hostmask for years...
23:54:16  <fjb> What's wrong with t-dialin.net?
23:54:43  <OwenS> "dial in"
23:55:02  <OwenS> As in the reference to dial up networking
23:55:58  <fjb> I still don't see the problem.
23:56:18  <Eddi|zuHause> well, i guess that meaning shifted to generic non-static login
23:56:27  <Eddi|zuHause> but that doesn't make it wrong...
