Splits the unidirectional read trait from a (planned) write trait at
the sector level, eliminating runtime "wrong direction" potential.
Keeps SectorReader alive as a pre-deprecation alias via blanket impl
so existing callers compile unchanged through the migration window.
Adds DecryptingSectorSource decorator: wrap any SectorSource in this
to get plaintext sectors out. Replaces the duplicate decrypt code
paths in sweep_pipeline and DiscStream (those migrations are
follow-up commits).
The formal #[deprecated] attribute on SectorReader is held back to a
follow-up commit because internal call sites in disc/, udf/, mux/,
and verify/ still go through the legacy trait, and the CI gauntlet
treats deprecation lints as errors. Behavioural intent — "this trait
is going away" — is documented on the trait itself.

Pass 1 sweep speed on a healthy disc previously dipped from ~15 MB/s
to ~1 MB/s every ~30 s on a host with default Linux dirty-page
settings. Empirical cause: the kernel's vm.dirty_ratio (~20% of RAM)
lets hundreds of MB of dirty pages accumulate, then bursts a flush at
99% disk utilisation that blocks app writes for ~1 s. Confirmed on
the BU40N test bed — dirty pages grew 112 → 563 MB between bursts;
lowering vm.dirty_bytes to 64 MB at the host sysctl level eliminated
the dips. Shipping the equivalent inside libfreemkv so users do not
need to tune the host kernel.
- New crate::io::Writer: drop-in File wrapper (impl Write + Seek).
Wraps a per-platform WritebackPipeline that on Linux schedules
sync_file_range(WRITE) + lagging sync_file_range(WAIT_AFTER) +
posix_fadvise(DONTNEED) in 32 MB chunks, bounding dirty cache at
~64 MB. macOS and Windows ship a no-op stub.
- Disc::sweep wraps its output File in Writer. Loop body unchanged.
- Module is purpose-built so any large sequential output (patch,
mux) can adopt the same wrapper as a one-line change later.
bytes_pending was an opaque aggregate of NonTried + NonTrimmed +
NonScraped. UIs that wanted a "will retry in Pass 2-N" bucket were
stuck showing the entire unread disc as Maybe at pct=0.
Adds two granular fields to MapStats:
bytes_nontried — Pass 1 hasn't read these yet
bytes_retryable — NonTrimmed + NonScraped, Pass 2-N will retry
bytes_pending stays for back-compat (= bytes_nontried + bytes_retryable).
Also picks up the cargo fmt --check lint that's been red on main CI
since v0.13.18 (rustfmt fold differences on a few long format-string
layouts; functional no-op).
Through the entire 0.13.x line, every CHECK CONDITION reply from the
drive (the standard way SCSI tells you why a sector failed) was being
collapsed into a synthetic status=0xFF, sense_key=0 transport-wedge
sentinel and the actual sense data was thrown away. Confirmed live on
the BU40N reading Dune 2 on 2026-04-27: drive returned host_status=0,
driver_status=8, status=2, exec_elapsed_ms=1416 on every bad sector
— a clean CHECK CONDITION carrying full sense data — and Disc::copy
was bailing on it as if the bridge had wedged.
Root cause: scsi/linux.rs's wedge check was
`host_status != 0 || driver_status != 0`
SG's DRIVER_SENSE bit (0x08) is set on every CHECK CONDITION reply
just to flag "sense buffer is populated" — it's not a transport
failure on its own. Pre-fix we conflated the two and silently lost
every drive-reported error reason. macOS and Windows backends had
the same shape: they extracted sense_key only, dropping ASC/ASCQ.
API restructure (clean separation):
Error::ScsiError {
opcode: u8,
status: u8, // 0xFF = synthetic transport-failure
sense: Option<ScsiSense>, // None ⇔ no sense delivered
}
pub struct ScsiSense { sense_key: u8, asc: u8, ascq: u8 }
impl ScsiSense {
pub fn is_marginal(&self) -> bool // keys 0/1/3/B
pub fn is_medium_error(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_hardware_error(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_unit_attention(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_data_protect(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_not_ready(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_illegal_request(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_aborted_command(&self) -> bool
}
impl Error {
pub fn scsi_sense(&self) -> Option<&ScsiSense>
pub fn is_scsi_transport_failure(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_marginal_read(&self) -> bool
}
SCSI protocol constants (SCSI_STATUS_*, SENSE_KEY_*) moved from
error.rs to scsi/mod.rs where they belong alongside SCSI_INQUIRY,
SCSI_READ_10, etc. parse_sense replaces parse_sense_key (returns the
full triple, not just the key); inline tests now exercise ASC/ASCQ
extraction at the right offsets for both descriptor (0x72/0x73) and
fixed (0x70/0x71) sense formats.
Disc::copy + Disc::patch sense-aware dispatch:
- marginal sense (MEDIUM ERROR / ABORTED COMMAND / RECOVERED ERROR
/ NO SENSE) → engage hysteresis (Block→Single, bpt=1)
- non-marginal sense (HARDWARE / DATA PROTECT / UNIT ATTENTION /
NOT READY / ILLEGAL REQUEST / transport failure / kernel
IoError) → bail with full sense info preserved; caller (autorip)
surfaces "physical replug" / "drive failing" / "media changed"
Pre-fix: every CHECK CONDITION → 0xFF synthetic → Disc::copy bailed
→ bytes_good froze at the bad zone. The hysteresis from v0.13.22
was correct but never got to run. This release unblocks it.
Disc::patch's wedged_threshold (50 consecutive failures) stays as
defense-in-depth for chains of marginal failures; a single
non-marginal sense now short-circuits it.
New phase=bail trace event records the bail reason with the sense
triple. phase=transport_err remains for genuine bridge wedges /
kernel timeouts; phase=scsi_err carries the parsed sense_key, asc,
ascq for drive-reported errors.
All 350 tests pass. Clippy clean across all targets.
The v0.13.21 bisect-on-fail recovery was correct (100% of recoverable
sectors picked up) but slow on dense damage clusters. Live test on
Dune 2 v0.13.21 burned ~30 s per damaged 60-block — paying a ~5 s
kernel ABORT/timeout at every level of a log₂(60) ≈ 6 deep DFS, on
the failing branch each time.
Replaced with a two-state hysteresis machine in Disc::copy:
Block(batch):
read(batch) ok → write, advance, stay Block
read(batch) fail → switch to Single, retry SAME range at bpt=1
Single:
read(1) ok → write, consecutive_good++
if consecutive_good >= BPT1_EXIT_THRESHOLD:
switch to Block, reset counter
read(1) fail → mark NonTrimmed, consecutive_good = 0
BPT1_EXIT_THRESHOLD = 10_000 sectors (= 20 MB clean run). Calibrated
from the 2026-04-26 BU40N empirical probe data; tunable.
Per-block math on a damaged 60-block with 1 truly bad sector:
Bisect (v0.13.21): ~30 s (5 s × 6 levels)
Hysteresis (v0.13.22): ~10 s (5 s bpt=batch fail
+ 59 × 1 ms good
+ 1 × 5 s bad)
Inside a damaged cluster spanning many 60-blocks the win compounds:
hysteresis pays the bpt=batch fail cost ONCE on entry, then stays at
bpt=1 across the cluster; bisection re-paid it every 60 sectors. For
Dune 2's ~1248-sector boundary cluster that's ~21 fewer 5-sec
kernel timeouts ≈ 100 s saved per pass.
Telemetry: new phase=mode_change trace event with from, to, lba, and
consecutive_good. Replaces v0.13.21's phase=bisect. Worklist DFS is
gone — single iterative for s in 0..count on the failure path.
Test rename, same fixture and same 100% recovery expectation:
test_disc_copy_bisect_recovers_via_single_sector_reads
→ test_disc_copy_hysteresis_recovers_via_single_sector_reads
Also adds DamageSeverity (Clean / Cosmetic / Moderate / Serious) +
classify_damage(bad_sectors, lost_ms), re-exported from libfreemkv,
so applications can render structured severity instead of formatting
their own from raw counters.
- scsi/linux.rs: full rewrite from async write/poll/read+1.5s timeout+
close-on-timeout to one synchronous ioctl(fd, SG_IO, &hdr). Kernel
honors hdr.timeout and runs its own ABORT/RESET escalation. Errors
check host_status and driver_status (both 0xFF-synthesised) plus
status. Sense-key parser handles descriptor (0x72/0x73) + fixed
(0x70/0x71) formats. Deleted fd_recovery, bg close+open thread, fd
swap dance. -331/+155 lines.
- scsi/macos.rs: try_recover() removed (userspace handle-recovery on
task failure was the same anti-pattern stripped from Linux). bsd_name
field deleted. Errors bubble up directly.
- scsi/windows.rs: try_recover() removed, wide_path field deleted,
INVALID_HANDLE guard removed.
- scsi/mod.rs: parse_sense_key() helper extracted (used by all three
platforms now — single canonical sense-key parse rather than three
inlined copies). +10 unit tests covering descriptor format, fixed
format, truncated buffers, unknown response codes.
- drive/mod.rs: Drive::reset() deleted (escalating eject + STOP/START +
reinit recovery — per audit, kernel handles its own escalation;
userspace shouldn't).
pub fn find_drives() -> Vec<Drive> deleted (opened N drives just to
throw most away). find_drive() now uses discover_drives() directly.
wait_ready() simplified — drops the reset path on sense_key=5,
just keeps polling TUR for 60 iterations.
- lib.rs: find_drives re-export removed.
- benches/sgio_read.rs: switched to find_drive() (no longer iterates a
drive list).
Net: 9 files changed, 226 insertions(+), 473 deletions(-). 329 tests
pass, clippy -D warnings clean. No consumer breakage (CLI, autorip,
bdemu compile + test green).
Architecture decision documented in
(internal)/docs/audits/2026-04-26-scsi-architecture-research.md
(primary-source survey of MakeMKV, sg_dd, ddrescue, and the kernel
mid-layer's own scsi_eh.rst escalation ladder).
Pre-0.13.16 the rip API leaked internal mapfile concepts (pos,
bytes_good, work_done, bytes_pending, Finished/NonTrimmed) into per-pass
positional callbacks Fn(u64, u64, u64). Consumers reinvented the math
each time, and v0.13.15's UI bug surfaced exactly because of this —
autorip's web JS computed pct from bytes_good while the backend
computed from pos, silent drift, frozen UI bar.
This release replaces both Disc::copy::on_progress and
Disc::patch::on_progress callbacks with a single Progress trait +
PassProgress struct (new progress module).
pub struct PassProgress {
pub kind: PassKind, // Sweep | Trim {reverse} | Scrape {reverse} | Mux
pub work_done: u64,
pub work_total: u64,
pub bytes_good_total: u64,
pub bytes_total_disc: u64,
}
pub trait Progress {
fn report(&self, p: &PassProgress);
}
impl<F: Fn(&PassProgress)> Progress for F { ... } // closures work directly
CopyOptions::on_progress and PatchOptions::on_progress are renamed to
progress: Option<&dyn Progress>. Closure callers update trivially via
the blanket impl; struct callers gain a clean named-field shape with no
positional-arg confusion.
PassKind carries the semantic (sweep vs trim vs scrape vs mux) so
consumers can label phases without reinventing detection logic.
Disc::patch reports Trim {reverse} for retry passes with block_sectors
>= 2 and Scrape {reverse} when block_sectors == 1. Direction comes
through reverse: bool. Mux variant is reserved for v0.13.17 when the
mux pipeline emits progress.
Tests + clippy clean across all 4 crates.
Architectural cleanup. autorip + freemkv CLI were reimplementing drive
discovery (sysfs walking, type-5 filtering, sg-path construction) and
calling SCSI reset primitives directly. All of that hardware-aware code
moves into libfreemkv with two cheap public probes:
- DriveInfo + list_drives() — multi-OS enumeration (Linux/macOS/Windows)
with peripheral-type-5 filtering and INQUIRY identity. Cheap.
- drive_has_disc(path) — single TUR with internal wedge recovery
escalation (SCSI reset → USB reset → retry) hidden from callers.
USB-layer reset (USBDEVFS_RESET / IOUSBDeviceInterface::ResetDevice /
storport's combined reset) wired across all three platforms.
Visibility tightening — scsi::reset, scsi::usb_reset, and the timeout
constants are now pub(crate). Compile-time guarantee that no consumer
crate can issue SCSI commands directly.
233 lib tests pass; clippy clean.
Audit pass against the project docs "no English text in library code" rule.
Found 9 call sites that violated the contract by stuffing English into
io::Error::new(kind, "…") or by abusing Error::DeviceNotFound { path }
as a free-form description field. Each is now a typed Error variant.
New variants and codes: ScsiInterfaceUnavailable (E1004), DeviceLocked
(E1005), IoKitPluginFailed (E1006), UnsupportedPlatform (E2003),
PlatformNotImplemented (E2004), MapfileInvalid (E6011), DiscUrlNotDirect
(E9009).
labels::apply() previously pushed Commentary/Descriptive/Score/IME and
" (Secondary)" English literals into AudioStream.label, leaking into
MKV titles + autorip UI. AudioStream now exposes structured `purpose:
LabelPurpose`, SubtitleStream `qualifier: LabelQualifier`. Callers
translate to localized text. label keeps codec-formatting only.
API hygiene: 11 mux/* modules dropped from `pub` to `pub(crate)` —
their *types* are still re-exported from lib.rs, but the modules were
leaking low-level EBML/TS/network primitives. Stream trait gets a real
rustdoc explaining read-vs-write split. lib.rs grouped re-exports into
documented sections. ScanOptions::with_keydb() removed (one-method-per-
action rule); use struct literal.
Dead-code sweep: removed lookahead.rs (orphan, never declared as mod),
tsreader.rs (TsDemuxReader unused), ebml::{write_int,read_vint,SEEK_*},
ts::{scan_first/last_pts,scan_duration,SCAN_HEAD/TAIL_SIZE,take/set_
remainder}, MkvMuxer codec_private_slots/filled fields and
fill_codec_private method (deferred-codecPrivate path never used since
the v0.10 PES rewrite). cargo clippy --all-targets -D warnings clean.
Tests: new error::tests for variant codes + Display "no English" guard +
io::ErrorKind mapping. 233 lib tests, all green (was 230).
Breaking: ScanOptions::with_keydb removed; mux/* modules pub(crate);
AudioStream and SubtitleStream gained required fields; UnsupportedDrive
{ product_revision: "Renesas not yet implemented" } no longer produced
(use PlatformNotImplemented).
New primitives for two-stage rip workflows: fast forward pass with
zero-fill on failures, then targeted retries of bad ranges via a
ddrescue-compatible mapfile.
- Disc::copy now takes &CopyOptions (breaking change from positional
args). Always writes a sidecar .mapfile. Opt-in skip_on_error +
skip_forward give ddrescue-style fast sweep: 64 KB blocks,
exponential skip-forward on failure, zero-fill bad blocks. Defaults
preserve pre-0.11.21 behavior (recovery reads, abort on bad sector).
- Disc::patch is new and idempotent. Reads the mapfile, re-reads every
non-finished range with full drive recovery, patches good bytes back
into the ISO at exact offsets. Call N times for N retry attempts.
- disc::mapfile is a new module. ddrescue text format, crash-safe
(flushed on every record()), greppable, human-editable, tool-compatible.
Status chars match ddrescue: ? / * / / / - / +.
- Re-exports FileSectorReader from the crate root.
- freemkv CLI caller (pipe.rs) updated to the new Disc::copy signature
in lockstep — shipped in the 0.11.21 freemkv CLI release.
Part of the 0.11.21 ecosystem sync (libfreemkv + freemkv + bdemu +
autorip all on 0.11.21).
Architecture:
- One stream per format, bidirectional PES (read/write on same type)
- IsoStream merged into DiscStream (one type, any SectorReader)
- Disc::copy() for disc→ISO raw sector dump
- IOStream trait deleted, all byte-level Read/Write removed
- ContentReader/OpenDisc/open_title/open_input/open_output deleted
- CountingStream wrapper for progress tracking
Error codes:
- All io::Error English strings replaced with Error enum variants
- From<Error> for io::Error conversion
- Unused variants removed, new stream/mux variants added
Deleted: mkvout.rs, pesout.rs, isowriter.rs, mkv-muxer-plan.md
Updated: all docs, README stream table, CHANGELOG
238 tests, 0 clippy warnings.
Stream trait: read() returns PesFrame, write() accepts PesFrame.
A stream is a stream — you read from it or write to it.
No separate Input/Output traits.
API: libfreemkv::input(url) and libfreemkv::output(url, title, codecs)
Returns Box<dyn Stream>.
- TsMuxer: PES frames → BD-TS packets (new, reverse of TsDemuxer)
- M2tsOutputStream: PES → TsMuxer → file
- NetworkOutputStream: PES → TsMuxer → TCP
- StdioOutputStream: PES frames → stdout
- NullOutputStream: discard
- MkvOutputStream: PES → MKV mux
- All outputs via open_pes_output()
- All inputs via open_pes_input() (ISO, disc)
- No byte-level fallback — everything is PES
- pes.rs: PesFrame, InputStream, OutputStream traits
- sector.rs: SectorReader now public, added FileSectorReader (ISO = file)
- Foundation for unified DiscStream that handles both disc and ISO
- Rename DriveSession → Drive across entire codebase
- find_drives() returns Vec<Drive>, find_drive() returns Option<Drive>
- resolve_device() now pub(crate) — internal only
- StreamUrl is now a typed enum (Disc, Mkv, M2ts, Iso, Network, Stdio, Null)
with scheme() and path_str() accessors, replacing struct of Strings
- Add lock_tray() / unlock_tray() for safe disc access during rips
- Improve reset() with eject cycle that clears LibreDrive stuck state
- Add Send bounds to ScsiTransport and PlatformDriver traits
- DiscOptions uses PathBuf instead of String for device/keydb paths
- Update doc example to use new Drive API
- DriveStatus enum: TrayOpen, NoDisc, DiscPresent, NotReady, Unknown
- drive_status(): GET EVENT STATUS NOTIFICATION with TUR fallback
- reset(): PREVENT ALLOW → START STOP → init() escalation
- wait_ready(): tries reset on Illegal Request, falls back to drive_status
- Remaining: standard READ(10) still fails in LibreDrive stuck state
- SectorReader trait decouples disc scanning from SCSI
- Disc::scan_image() for ISO and any sector source
- resolve_encryption() handles AACS 1.0/2.0/none in one path
- IsoStream: full UDF/MPLS/CLPI/labels pipeline from ISO files
- StdioStream: stdin/stdout pipe
- Strict scheme:// URL format with validation
- Labels module refactored to SectorReader
- 7 stream types total
- Split AacsError { detail } into 13 specific error variants (AacsCertShort,
AacsAgidAlloc, AacsCertRejected, etc.) with unique error codes E7001-E7012
- Split DiscError { detail } into 7 specific variants (DiscRead, MplsParse,
ClpiParse, UdfNotFound, DiscNoTitles, DiscTitleRange, DiscNoExtents)
- Add WriteError (E5001), KeydbLoad (E8005), MuxLookahead (E9000), MuxWrite (E9001)
- Add OpenDisc API for single-call open+scan+rip workflow
- Remove all English text from error Display impl (code-only output)
- Normalize doc comments to use -- instead of em dash for ASCII consistency
Platform trait is no longer publicly exported. External code uses
DriveSession only — cannot call unlock, load_firmware, calibrate directly.
- Platform trait: pub(crate) with 3 methods only
- All handlers are private methods on Mt1959
- DriveStatus moved to mt1959 internal struct
- init() has guard: no re-init if already ready
- set_read_speed() has guard: no-op if not calibrated
- Removed open_unlocked() — open() is the only entry
- Removed Platform and DriveStatus from public exports
Prevents: out-of-sequence SCSI commands, double-init, wrong firmware writes.
Back to basics: open, unlock, SET CD SPEED max, read.
Remove all calibration probes, register reads, maintain_speed calls.
This is closest to the build that hit 17 MB/s earlier.
Also: drive discovery moved to libfreemkv (find_drive, resolve_device),
AACS via UDF only, clean pipeline, sg device support.
Architecture:
- Each BD-J format in own file: paramount.rs, criterion.rs, pixelogic.rs, ctrm.rs
- Standard interface: detect() → bool, parse() → Option<Vec<StreamLabel>>
- PARSERS array in mod.rs — drop in a new parser with one line
- Shared vocab.rs for BD spec codec names only (MLP→TrueHD, AC3→Dolby Digital)
- All other label data passes through raw from disc — no guessing
Changes:
- New: paramount.rs (playlists.xml — Paramount/onQ format)
- Renamed: bluray_project.rs → pixelogic.rs
- Renamed: stream_properties.rs → criterion.rs
- Merged: language_streams.rs + menu_base.rs → ctrm.rs
- Removed: jar module (superseded by labels), dead apply functions
- Added: DriveSession::eject() with PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL
- Added: DiscRegion enum (Free/BluRay/Dvd)
- Fixed: capture sector ranges now include all files (only skip STREAM/)
- Renamed: StreamLabel.region → variant (not a BD spec field)
src/labels/ with 4 parsers tried in order:
1. language_streams.txt (Warner CTRM CSV)
2. menu_base.prop (Warner CTRM properties)
3. streamproperties.xml + playbackconfig.xml (Criterion XML)
4. bluray_project.bin (Pixelogic binary tokens)
Disc::scan() calls labels::extract() → apply_disc_labels().
If no disc files found, streams keep MPLS data as-is.
No JAR fallback — disc files or nothing.
Covers 4/8 discs with JARs (Dunkirk UHD, V for Vendetta BD,
Being There, Barbie). Remaining 3 (Civil War, Dune, V for
Vendetta UHD) have no disc config files.
Each stream type has only its relevant fields. No more HDR on audio
or channels on video. Added SubtitleStream.forced field (TODO: parse).
Removed display helpers from lib (belongs in CLI).
- Disc.volume_id: UDF Volume ID from PVD (always present)
- Disc.meta_title: from META/DL/bdmt_eng.xml (falls back to other languages)
- Disc.format: UHD/BluRay/DVD detected from video codec
- Disc.capacity_bytes, Disc.layers
- Disc.jar_labels: extracted from BDMV/JAR
- Fixed MPLS STN parsing: 16-byte header (was 8), proper stream entry offsets
- Streams now include: HDR, color space, Dolby Vision EL, secondary audio/video
- parse_dstring() for UDF d-string fields
- wait_ready() polls TEST UNIT READY before unlock
Tested on 12 disc captures — all return correct titles, streams, format.
Parses device keys, processing keys, host cert, per-disc VUKs.
Full KEYDB.cfg (60MB, 180K entries) parsed in 1.85 seconds.
All test discs found with VUKs.
Next: disc hash computation, title key decryption, content decryption.
Scans BDMV/JAR/*.jar class files for track label patterns:
eng_MLP_ → TrueHD, eng_ADES_US_ → Descriptive Audio (US)
dan_PGStream4 → Danish subtitles
Solves the "3x AC-3 English" problem — we identify Descriptive Audio, commentary, compatibility tracks.
Future: set MKV "visual impaired" flag automatically during mux.
Local only — needs more disc samples to validate before publishing.
