From 8f6a92ccd4070d76ab85c97183fbb3eef378b827 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Jackson <1085847+MattJackson@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 22:06:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Bisect: halve at dead boundary + exempt boundary probes from stall The expand loops broke out of the batch sweep on the first failing read, overshooting the good/dead boundary by up to a batch and leaving the readable sectors adjacent to a dead edge for the re-bisect to re-pin. On top of that, early-yield counted those boundary-probe failures as a stall, so the forward expand quit early AND the backward expand inherited a poisoned unproductive counter and yielded instantly. Now on a failed expand batch we halve the step (down to a single sector) to recover right up to the dead edge in ~log2(batch) reads, drive the expand loops off the deadline only (they self-terminate via halving), and clear the unproductive streak once an island is located. patch_recovers_ good_middle_of_a_bad_range now recovers 50/50 good-middle sectors. --- src/disc/patch.rs | 1 + src/disc/section_recover.rs | 160 +++++++++++++++++++++++------------- 2 files changed, 103 insertions(+), 58 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/disc/patch.rs b/src/disc/patch.rs index 37f63f8..6c44222 100644 --- a/src/disc/patch.rs +++ b/src/disc/patch.rs @@ -912,6 +912,7 @@ impl PatchCtx<'_, '_> { halt: self.opts.halt.as_deref(), decrypt_is_aacs: self.decrypt_is_aacs, tick: Some(&mut tick), + unproductive: 0, }; run_handlers(&mut ctx, &mut handlers, bad, &mut self.scoreboard, |_bad| { now_ptr() + std::time::Duration::from_secs(PER_HANDLER_BUDGET_SECS) diff --git a/src/disc/section_recover.rs b/src/disc/section_recover.rs index 6ce52be..d3a8c16 100644 --- a/src/disc/section_recover.rs +++ b/src/disc/section_recover.rs @@ -47,6 +47,14 @@ const BATCH_SECTORS: u64 = 32; /// resumes rather than reading every dead sector. const JUMP_AFTER_FAILS: u32 = 2; +/// Early-yield threshold: after this many consecutive reads that recover NOTHING, +/// a handler hands the still-bad set to the next handler instead of grinding out +/// its whole time budget on a dead zone.
