Disc::sweep, Disc::patch, Disc::copy, SweepOptions and PatchOptions have
zero occurrences in src/ — recovery moved to freemkv-engine — but they were
still documented in 30 places across README.md, TROUBLESHOOTING.md, six
files under docs/, seven src/ doc comments and a Cargo.toml comment.
README.md is the crate's GitHub front page and carried a full multi-pass
code example that cannot compile.
Two of the src/ references were intra-doc LINKS to deleted items
([`disc::Disc::copy`], [`disc::Disc::patch`] in scsi/mod.rs). They produced
no warning on a normal `cargo doc` only because they sit on pub(crate)
items; `--document-private-items` reports both, and they are gone now.
The README example is deleted rather than rewritten against the engine's
API: libfreemkv documenting a downstream crate's API on its own front page
is the drift that produced this, and it cannot even depend on it. The src/
references become plain code spans naming freemkv_engine::recovery::* —
deliberately not links, for the same reason.
docs/rip-recovery.md was 202 lines about relocated code. It now documents
only what this crate owns — Drive::read, SenseFamily, DiscStream's adaptive
batch halving — plus the read-path design constraints, which belong with the
code that enforces them, and points at freemkv-engine/src/recovery/ for the
strategy. api-design.md's module tree is regenerated from the real src/disc/
and src/drive/ layouts instead of hand-patched; it had listed sweep.rs,
patch.rs, mapfile.rs and read_error.rs, none of which exist.
Three stale facts surfaced while rewriting and are corrected: the read
timeouts are 10 s / 60 s, not the documented 1.5 s / 30 s; Drive::reset and
SgIoTransport::reset no longer exist at all, so "no SCSI reset from any read
path" is now stated as the stronger fact it has become; and verify_title,
listed as a progress-emitting operation, was removed entirely.
CHANGELOG.md keeps its references — those are the historical record of the
releases that shipped the API.
Moved SenseFamily::from_sense_key + is_wedge_family from disc/read_error.rs
into scsi/mod.rs (with its own tests) and re-exported at the crate root.
This is pure SCSI sense-code classification -- objective hardware fact, zero
recovery-policy opinion -- so it belongs in the library primitives, unlike
the retry-DECISION state machine (ReadCtx/PassSummary/ReadAction/
handle_read_error) built on top of it, which is freemkv's specific recovery
strategy and is moving to freemkv-engine next.
disc/read_error.rs and disc/section_recover.rs now import SenseFamily from
crate::scsi instead of defining/re-exporting their own copy. No behavior
change. Precommit green on Rust 1.86 (fmt+clippy+test).
- CSS: unlock scrambled-sector reads on enforcing drives via bus-auth
only; classify sense 6F/03 as CSS-locked; early-bail on a fully locked
scan; gate the AACS handshake off DVD discs.
- DVD first-play menu no longer prepended to the feature: read the title
VOBS base from vtstt_vobs (0xC4), not the menu VOBS vtsm_vobs (0xC0).
- Interlaced field-duration (DefaultDecodedFieldDuration) written as a
direct TrackEntry child rather than inside Video, so Windows reports
the correct frame rate.
- Audio channel count read from the AC-3 bitstream; FieldOrder set to
TFF; per-track BPS tags.
- Structured disc diagnostics at --log-level 3; reduced per-operation
log spam.
Three fixes for a Windows ASUS Blu-ray drive that failed/spammed errors:
- resolve.rs: accept disk:// as an alias for disc:// (identical behavior;
empty = auto-detect, path = device). Windows users commonly type
disk://i: after the drive-letter convention.
- drive::find_drive: prefer a drive that reports media present. Enumerate
all optical drives, query Drive::drive_status() (GET EVENT STATUS, works
regardless of firmware), and return the first reporting DiscPresent;
fall back to the first enumerated drive when none report a disc so
single-drive / quirky setups don't regress. Selection policy split into
select_drive_with_media() for unit testing.
- READ chunking: add ScsiTransport::max_transfer_bytes() (default 1 MiB).
Windows SPTI overrides it with the adapter MaximumTransferLength queried
via IOCTL_STORAGE_QUERY_PROPERTY / StorageAdapterProperty, clamped to a
64 KiB floor (fallback on query failure). Drive::read now caps each
READ(10) to that limit: small reads take the unchanged single-CDB path,
larger reads loop over read_one() chunks, reporting the failing chunk's
LBA on error. This stops the 16 MiB single read that exceeded the
adapter limit, made DeviceIoControl fail, and spammed transport-failure
warnings with slow tiny-read fallbacks.
Tests added for the disk:// alias, media-preference selection, and READ
chunk decomposition / per-chunk error LBA.
Test-hardening release, no runtime changes. Adds spec-grounded unit tests
across the silent-corruption surfaces — UDF/MPLS/CLPI/IFO parsing, BD/DVD
title + extent assembly, AACS/CSS key handling, TS/PS demux + codec parsers,
MKV/EBML container output, the mux pipeline, sector prefetch + decrypt
decorator, drive/SCSI sense decoding, label extraction, and core I/O. Each
test is grounded in the format spec or real on-disc behavior and verified to
fail under a targeted source mutation. No behavior changed.
Library-wide review-and-fix pass: tightened AACS keydb/handshake/variant
handling and trailing-partial-unit policy, corrected MPLS mark offset and
added UDF allocation bounds, hardened the mux/codec framing and M2TS paths,
guarded SCSI READ CAPACITY short transfers and unified error mapping, added
overflow guards on untrusted disc input, and made prefetch shutdown
deterministic. Release profile now builds with thin LTO + single codegen unit.
Direct-SATA BU40N + Dune Part Two UHD live testing exposed that the
v0.17.3 single-shot SCSI READ path matched 0/22 of the small bad-
sector LBAs that dd if=/dev/sr0 recovers on the same drive. This
release closes that gap and fixes adjacent bugs silently capping
recovery.
- /dev/sr0 pread fallback in Drive::read (Linux only): on SCSI READ
Err, fall back to posix_fadvise(DONTNEED) + pread() against the
corresponding block device. Kernel sr_mod runs ~5 internal retries
with no per-attempt mid-layer escalation overhead — the mechanism
behind dd's recovery advantage. End-to-end byte verification
confirms the fallback path returns real disc data.
- Disc::patch per-range watchdog fix: MAX_RANGE_SECS was breaking
'outer (one slow range killed the entire patch). Now skips to the
next range. Pre-fix patch died after 4 sectors of range 1 of 47.
- Per-sector range budget: range_budget = sectors × 25 s, capped at
1800 s. Replaces the flat 180 s/range that was unfair to medium
ranges and pointlessly generous to single-sector ones.
- consecutive_failures resets per range. The wedge-exit detector is
for stuck-on-one-range, not many-small-ranges-with-one-fail-each.
- Reverted inline 5× retry experiment (was hurting: each retry paid
kernel SCSI escalation overhead). Restored READ_RECOVERY_TIMEOUT_MS
to 60 s. The kernel-auto-retry pattern is now provided by sr0
fallback.
Empirical: pass 1 recovered 94.6 MB / 11 s of main title (33 sr0
saves). Pass 2 added 0.6 MB. Remaining ~233 MB on the test disc
appears physically unrecoverable on this hardware.
macOS SCSI transport rewritten from hybrid MMC+pread to single-path
raw CDB dispatch through SCSITaskDeviceInterface. All CDBs (INQUIRY,
READ, REPORT KEY, etc.) now go through ExecuteTaskSync — 1:1 with
the Linux SG_IO backend.
Key changes:
- New macos_shim.c: diskutil unmount → find IOBDServices →
ObtainExclusiveAccess → raw CDB dispatch. Eliminates Rust-side
IOKit COM vtable complexity.
- build.rs compiles macos_shim.c via cc into static lib
- macos.rs simplified to three FFI calls (open/close/execute)
- disc/mod.rs: graduated batch restore after errors, skip-ahead
through bad zones, configurable error pause
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.
Fixes the BU40N wedge cycle that has been chasing us through
v0.13.18-20. Two changes, both backed by empirical live-hardware
probes recorded in (internal)/docs/TEST_PLAN.md:
1. scsi/mod.rs: READ_TIMEOUT_MS 1500 → 10000 ms.
Cold-start seek on the BU40N takes ~1.5 s. The old timeout
cancelled normal reads at the boundary, triggering the kernel's
ABORT/RESET escalation, which the Initio bridge couldn't drain —
firmware-level wedge. 10 s catches every legitimate slow read
(max successful ECC recovery: 2.6 s; cold-start: 1.5 s) with
margin and short-circuits truly bad sectors at ~10 s.
2. disc/mod.rs: Disc::copy bisect-on-fail (replaces skip-forward).
Live data showed the drive fails multi-sector READs in the bad
zone but reads each sector cleanly when asked at bpt=1. Old
skip-forward jumped 845 MB on the first multi-sector failure,
marking everything in between as bad — losing clean territory
sandwiched between bad sectors. New algorithm bisects: split the
failed block in half, retry each half, recurse to single-sector
reads. Sectors recoverable individually are picked up in Pass 1;
only sectors that fail at bpt=1 are marked NonTrimmed for the
patch passes. Stack-based DFS, log2(batch) = 6 levels for the
default 60-sector batch.
Multi-pass machinery is untouched. Pass 2..N walk the mapfile and
become fast no-ops when bisect already recovered everything.
Wedged-drive early-exit, 30 s settle, batch taper, F-R-F-R direction
alternation — all preserved.
New test: integration_progress_and_halt::
test_disc_copy_bisect_recovers_via_single_sector_reads — synthetic
BU40N-pattern reader (multi-sector reads fail, single-sector
succeed). Pre-patch: lost everything to skip-forward. Post-patch:
100 % bytes_good. Plus the 10 sense-key parser tests from the
0.13.20 test-coverage pass.
Empirical recovery on Dune 2 UHD on the BU40N (per TEST_PLAN.md run
log): old algorithm ~25 GB recovered + 6 GB skipped-forward and
mostly lost; new algorithm projects ~99 % recovery in Pass 1.
Audits + raw probe data:
- (internal)/docs/TEST_PLAN.md (run log)
- (internal)/docs/audits/2026-04-26-scsi-architecture-research.md
- 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).
Drive::read is now single-shot. Phase 1/2/3 retries + scsi::reset+reopen
removed (~80 lines). recovery=true bumps timeout to 30s; recovery=false
stays at 1.5s. On any failure returns Err(DiscRead) immediately — caller
(Disc::patch outer loop, DiscStream batch halver) handles retries.
Inline reset+reopen WAS the wedge primitive on the LG BU40N. Per prior
post-mortem, every USB/SCSI reset path tested fails to recover the
wedged Initio bridge — the inline retry was pure cost.
SgIoTransport::reset (Linux) trimmed to kernel SG_IO state flush +
ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL. SG_SCSI_RESET ioctl + STOP/START UNIT escalation
removed. macOS reset removed (no-op). scsi::reset() top-level family
removed (no callers).
EventKind::BytesRead { bytes, total } now actually emitted from
DiscStream::fill_extents after each successful sector read. Was
declared in 0.13.0, never fired. Drives autorip per-device progress
in direct mode.
EventKind::Retry / SectorRecovered no longer emitted (variants kept
for forward compat). SpeedChange still emitted via Drive::set_speed
public path.
Tests: new tests/integration_progress_and_halt.rs (5 tests). 233 unit
tests + 5 integration green.
USB/SCSI recovery escalation in drive_has_disc (0.13.1-0.13.3) tested
on LG BU40N USB BD-RE: USBDEVFS_RESET, authorized toggle, driver
unbind/rebind, SCSI host rescan — all succeed at the USB transport
layer but the drive firmware below the bridge stays locked. Only
physical unplug-replug clears it. Rolled back so consumers can
surface the real failure to the user.
New: list_drives falls back to sysfs-cached vendor/model/rev from
/sys/class/scsi_generic/sgN/device/ when live INQUIRY returns empty,
so wedged drives still show their identity in UIs.
Removed: scsi::usb_reset, usb_reset_with_timeout, per-platform
usb_reset methods, recover_then_probe, is_wedge_signature. Breadcrumb
comment in scsi/linux.rs::drive_has_disc points at v0.13.3 tag for
the full implementation if future hardware needs it back.
Linux/macOS/Windows pass-through symmetric; 233 tests passing.
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.
Production incident: autorip's poll loop called scsi::reset() on a
wedged BU40N USB drive. The Linux SG_SCSI_RESET ioctl blocked
indefinitely (kernel SCSI subsystem waiting for a bus-wedged device to
ack a reset that will never come). Caller's poll loop hung for 60+
seconds before manual intervention.
scsi::reset() now spawns a detached worker for the platform-specific
reset and bounds the caller's wait via mpsc::recv_timeout. Default
30 s (DEFAULT_RESET_TIMEOUT_SECS); reset_with_timeout(device, dur)
exposes the bound for callers that want a different value. Returns
DeviceResetFailed on timeout. Worker thread keeps running until the
kernel eventually unblocks — leaks one OS thread per hard wedge, but
the daemon stays responsive instead of hanging forever.
Follow-up flagged for 0.13.2: USB-attached drives wedge at the USB
Mass Storage layer below SCSI; SG_SCSI_RESET doesn't help. A
scsi::usb_reset(path) using USBDEVFS_RESET is the proper escalation.
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).
