A read was only ever judged "good" by the drive's SCSI GOOD status — with no
integrity check on the bytes. On dirty/marginal media a drive can silently
return best-effort ECC data (occasionally mis-corrected) with GOOD status, so a
rip could "pass clean" yet decode with errors, pushing corruption downstream to
the mux instead of catching it at the read.
Enable recovered-error REPORTING at drive-prep: MODE SELECT the Read-Write
Error Recovery page with PER=1 (TB on / DTE off so the data still comes back),
preserving the drive's own retry count. Marginal reads now surface as
CHECK CONDITION / RECOVERED ERROR. Best-effort — a drive that doesn't honor it
keeps its defaults (no regression), and on a clean disc nothing changes.
A recovered error is distrusted: it marks just that ECC block NonTrimmed for a
Pass N re-read (a clean re-read wins; a persistent marginal becomes an honest
concealed gap), and is counted in the pass summary. Crucially it takes a
per-block SkipBlock, NOT the damage-jump path — a single marginal sector must
not trigger a 64 MB skip that would discard good data on a lightly-smudged disc.
Adopt freemkv-unlock's split Unlocker trait: run_features drives the drive-prep capability, run_bus the content bus removal, each iterating unlockers until one doesn't decline (NotApplicable = try next; Ok or a real error stops).
unlocker_matrix now reports which drive-prep unlocker actually ran — LibreDrive removes the bus at the drive; Renesas unlocks features but leaves the bus to the cert. Wire product_id through to fu::DriveId.
Bump to 1.2.3.
Add ReadParams { speed: SpeedPref, fua: bool, timeout: TimeoutPref } and
thread it through read_span so every wedge-safe handler read can request a
spindle speed (SET CD SPEED issued only on change, restored to max when the
handler exits), set the READ(10) FUA bit, and pick the 10s vs 60s timeout.
- SectorSource gains read_sectors_fua (default ignores fua); Drive sets the
CDB bit, DecryptingSectorSource threads fua to its inner read.
- recovery_read gains a fua param.
- Linear becomes { direction, params }; Bisect/Jump take params. Existing
tier-0/1 instances keep identical behavior (max speed, no FUA, fast/deep).
- Scoreboard keys on the full-config String name (linear:fwd:max:fast, ...).
- FakeDisc observes speed + FUA + approach so specialist techniques are
provably exercised in later commits.
cargo test -p libfreemkv green (2193 passed).
Forcing FUA (Force Unit Access) on EVERY READ(10) bypassed the drive's
readahead/streaming cache on the bulk Pass-1 sweep, collapsing sequential
throughput ~10x (UHD 15-25 → ~2 MB/s, DVD → ~0.5 MB/s), disc-type-
agnostic — the cache IS the streaming throughput. This was the real speed
regression (not unlock/riplock, which the earlier chase suspected). Clear
byte-1 bit 0x08. FUA will return as a dedicated Pass-N recovery handler
that sets/clears it per marginal-sector re-read, where cache-masking of a
stochastic sector actually matters — never blanket on the bulk path (#55).
Returns each registered unlocker's name + whether it applies to this
drive+disc (via the unlock bridge over all_unlockers()). Disc crypto kind
derived in the library so the CLI and autorip render an identical, always-
current report with no hardcoded names. Also adds a Drive::unlocker_name()
runtime getter.
The v1.0.0-rc.1 unlocker refactor added an `if disc_is_dvd() { return }`
early-return in Drive::init() that skipped the whole drive-prep unlock for
DVDs. That firmware unlock is what lifts riplock and readies max read
speed — a DRIVE-level, disc-independent feature — so skipping it left
every DVD stuck at stock/riplock speed (~0.4x, 3h ETA). UHD was unaffected
because it flows through the unlock.
Remove the skip: init() now runs the identity-keyed drive unlocker for all
discs (disc kind is Unknown at init, so only the drive unlocker matches;
the AACS host-cert handshake and CSS bus-auth still run later, gated on the
real disc kind, on top of the unlocked drive). Speed stays where it
belongs — SET CD SPEED(0xFFFF) at pass-1 start (disc/mod.rs) — not in the
unlocker. Also drop the matching probe_disc DVD skip.
Reverts the SET STREAMING stopgap (separate freemkv-unlock revert): that
treated the symptom; the real bug was the skipped unlock. Drive features
come from the firmware unlock, not a stock speed CDB.
DVD ran the drive at ~0.4x stock speed: init() early-returned for DVD
before any speed was set, and its only speed command was the sweep's lone
legacy SET CD SPEED, which this BU40N ignores for DVD. BD/UHD got up to
speed only via the firmware unlocker's calibration — a path a DVD can't
take (it breaks stock CSS).
Call the new unlock-crate drive-features capability at init() for ALL disc
kinds, before the DVD stock-mode early-return, via a bridge shim. Stock
MMC only (SET STREAMING + SET CD SPEED), no bus unlock, so CSS is
undisturbed.
Every Drive::read now forces the read from physical media instead of
letting the drive satisfy it from cache. A recovery tool must not trust
the cache: on a re-read of a marginal sector the BU40N can return a
cached miss (~4 ms) instead of giving the surface a fresh physical
attempt (~40-250 ms), masking a sector that would otherwise read on a
real media hit. FUA (READ(10) byte 1 bit 3) is validated on the
BU40N/Initio bridge.
Spin the disc down (START=0, LOEJ=0) then back up (START=1) to clear the
BU40N/Initio fast-fail wedge state a run of HARDWARE_ERROR reads leaves the drive
in — the non-eject power-cycle our notes say the wedge needs. The disc stays
loaded; we never eject (slot-loading — a human eject is a product failure for an
unattended service). Validated live 2026-07-01: took the drive from
failing-every-read back to reading at MB/s.
Audit fixes (v1.1.0..HEAD regressions in the unlock migration + adaptive patch
speed):
- unlock_bridge ScsiAdapter: libfreemkv's transport returns Err on ANY non-zero
SCSI status (a normal CHECK CONDITION), not only transport faults. The adapter
was collapsing every such Err to { status: 0xFF, sense: None }, which discarded
the parsed sense and defeated the AACS handshake's ILLEGAL_REQUEST wedge guard
(so it kept hammering the drive — hard-rule #2) and inverted its
transport-vs-rejection diagnosis. Now reconstruct status + the 32-byte sense
buffer (sense_key@2, asc@12, ascq@13) and only emit 0xFF/None for a genuine
transport fault.
- Drive::init: a genuine transport fault during the drive-prep unlock means the
bus is dead — propagate it (the v1.1.0 invariant) instead of silently
swallowing it via `if let Ok`. Other errors (no matching unlocker) still fall
through to stock mode. SET CD SPEED max now runs only when the bus is alive.
- disc::patch: on the first read failure in a range, drop to slow recovery speed
and RE-ATTEMPT the same position at slow speed before marking it. A
single-sector range's first failing sector was being marked from a MAX-speed
read it never got to recover.
- docs: lib.rs architecture diagram (handshake → host_certs) and README (stale
pluggable-unlock-seam / register-unlocker / crates.io / docs.rs references).
Two recovery-path fixes:
- patch: log the per-range speed transitions (INFO, phase="patch_speed") — each
range enters at 0xFFFF (max) and drops to 0x0000 (slow recovery) on its first
read failure. Previously the adaptive-speed behavior was invisible in the logs.
- drive init: issue the generic SET CD SPEED max UNCONDITIONALLY at drive-open,
not only when a firmware unlocker matched. A stock-mode BD/UHD drive (no
firmware unlock) was left riplocked because the call sat inside the
unlocker-matched branch.
Rewire the three unlock dispatch points through the freemkv-unlock crate via a
private `unlock_bridge`: drive-prep (kind=Unknown) at `Drive::init`, AACS cert
(kind=Aacs) at `do_handshake_cert`, CSS bus-auth (kind=Css) at scan. The bridge
news up `all_unlockers()` and runs the first matching one, mapping its
`Unlocked` result to the bus-key gate. After a successful drive unlock,
libfreemkv issues a generic SET CD SPEED (max) itself — the old per-unlocker
trait method is gone.
Delete the in-tree unlock code now owned by freemkv-unlock: the AACS cert
handshake (`aacs/handshake.rs`), the CSS bus-auth (`css/auth.rs`), and the
unlock registry (`unlock.rs`). Host-cert collection (a keysource concern) stays
in a small `aacs/host_certs.rs`. No public unlock surface remains — clients
touch libfreemkv only, oblivious to unlockers (as they are to SCSI). 2277 tests
pass.
Replace route_unlock's Option<(name, Vid)> with a structured UnlockRoute
{ Unlocked(name, Unlocked) | Failed(UnlockError) | NoMatch } so a single
dispatch serves every caller: drive-prep wants "did anything unlock", and the
AACS cert route (next) needs the FAILURE REASON to render "missing keys" vs
"host cert rejected" instead of collapsing it to a bare None. Only a genuine
SCSI transport fault still returns Err (abort). UnlockCtx gains an optional
ScanOptions (the cert route's host-cert source), and read_mkb_from_drive now
takes &mut dyn ScsiTransport — both prerequisites for the cert handshake to
become an external freemkv-unlock-aacs unlocker. Drive-prep + CSS callers fold
the new outcome; no behavior change.
Extend Unlocked with drive_unlocked + read_data_key_err so the registry result
carries everything the downstream bus-key gate needs — a firmware unlocker sets
drive_unlocked=true (bus encryption removed at the drive, no bus key), the cert
route will set read_data_key (+ read_data_key_err on a failed bus-key read).
route_unlock now returns the full Unlocked rather than just a Vid, so a single
dispatch can fold the firmware, cert, and CSS results uniformly. Prep for the
AACS cert handshake becoming a registry unlocker.
Reshape the Unlocker seam so every unlocker is dispatched at ONE place from
ONE ordered registry — the firmware, cert, and CSS routes are all "remove the
bus-encryption barrier", differing only in what they key off. matches() and
unlock() now take an UnlockCtx { drive_id, kind: DiscKind } instead of a bare
DriveId: a firmware unlocker keys off drive_id (kind irrelevant), the cert
unlocker will match DiscKind::Aacs, the CSS unlocker DiscKind::Css. UnlockCtx
is #[non_exhaustive] so a host-cert source can be added without breaking
external unlockers. Drive-prep dispatch passes DiscKind::Unknown (no disc
probed yet); the cert/CSS registry impls + the single post-probe dispatch
point follow in subsequent commits.
The bus-key gate only credited the cert handshake's read_data_key as proof
bus encryption was removed. A firmware unlocker removes it AT THE DRIVE
(serves clear content) and yields no read_data_key — so a SUCCESSFUL
firmware unlock (VID present, read_data_key None) tripped the gate and
blocked ALL key resolution, including the online source. That was the
root cause of live UHD discs reporting "missing keys" after an unlock.
Now a single predicate answers "is bus encryption gone?": never-had-it ||
file/ISO || firmware-unlocked || cert-bus-key. The gate is just
`if !bus_encryption_removed { error }` — no enumerated cases. HandshakeResult
gains `drive_unlocked`, and the read_data_key failure reason is captured so
the warn says WHY the bus key is missing.
Also: reword the first hardware-sense escalation as "fast-fail escalation"
(it is often transient — the drive recovers), reserving "wedge" for a
persistent run; and scrub the product name from core comments (it belongs
only in the unlocker crate).
- 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.
Drive::read fires hundreds of thousands of times per rip. Logging its
entry at DEBUG floods a diagnostic log and buries the events that
actually matter. Move it to TRACE so a level-3 (debug) bug-report log
stays readable; level-4 (trace) still captures it for deep dives.
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.
Rename the trait to a generic, drive-neutral capability contract so future
unlockers don't conform to LibreDrive specifics:
- unlock(...) -> unlock_drive(...) (the one required capability)
- read_vid(...) -> read_volume_id(...) (no-op default)
- add set_max_read_speed(...) (no-op default)
The trait doc now states the contract in one place: unlockers are optional
drive-capability providers; the AACS layer is the always-present baseline and
falls back to the full cert handshake when no unlocker matches. Implement only
the capabilities your drive supports.
Registry: route_unlock now calls unlock_drive; unlocker_read_vid renamed to
unlocker_read_volume_id; add unlocker_set_max_read_speed (mirrors route_unlock
resolution, first matching unlocker, no-op if none match). drive::init calls
it on a matched drive in the post-unlock path; a speed-set failure is logged
and does not fail the rip. encrypt.rs handshake updated to the new VID helper.
Tests updated for the renames; added a set_max_read_speed routing test
(match invokes, no-match is a safe no-op).
An Unlocker unlocks drive functionality, not just the disc: unlock() is
one capability, OEM VID retrieval is another. Widen the Unlocker trait
with a default-no-op read_vid(), add an unlocker_read_vid registry helper
that mirrors route_unlock resolution, and consult it in do_handshake_cert
before the cert-based VID read. A matching unlocker that serves a VID via
its OEM path short-circuits the cert handshake — VID is obtained without
the host certificate + HRL (restoring the pre-refactor decoupled OEM VID
path, now living inside the unlocker). Non-matching drives, and unlockers
without an OEM VID path, fall through to cert auth unchanged.
is_unlocked() now reports the honest signal (a registered unlocker matched
this drive) instead of const false.
libfreemkv must stay firmware-clean for crates.io. Move ALL drive-unlock
knowledge — firmware blobs, WRITE_BUFFER/MODE SELECT upload, unlock CDBs,
the MT1959 variant-A/B handshake, the 800 KB profiles.json database, and
the DriveProfile parsing — out into the freemkv-unlock-ld crate.
libfreemkv now keeps only the seam:
- Unlocker trait (name/matches/unlock) + a process-wide ordered registry
(register_unlocker / route_unlock) in src/unlock.rs
- Drive::init() walks the registry; the first unlocker whose matches(id)
is true runs unlock(scsi, id); if none match the drive is left in
stock mode and the host-cert AACS handshake (the OEM route) carries
the disc.
The unlocker issues its own CDBs through the public ScsiTransport::execute,
so libfreemkv knows nothing about how unlocking happens.
Removed:
- profiles.json
- src/platform/mt1959/{mod,variant_a,variant_b}.rs
- src/profile.rs (DriveProfile, ProfilesFile, find_by_drive_id, ...)
- the PlatformDriver trait
Because the Unlocker seam reports only success/failure (no extended-access
marker), VID acquisition is now always via the cert-based handshake; the
per-drive OEM-VID-CDB shortcut and Drive::is_unlocked() (now const false)
are removed/neutralized. Disc-speed calibration moved into the unlocker's
unlock(); Drive::probe_disc() is a no-op.
git grep over src/ is firmware-blob/profiles/WRITE_BUFFER/mt1959-free.
All tests pass on Rust 1.86 (precommit green).
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.
When the drive is in extended-access state (unlocked), retrieve VID via
the per-drive `read_vid_cdb` from the bundled profile instead of the
cert-based AACS REPORT_KEY handshake. Cert handshake remains the
fallback for drives that don't enter extended-access state, or whose
profile lacks the required CDB.
Empirically verified on the BU40N (signature 999ec375) against
Barbie UHD: drive returns 36 bytes from buffer 0x44 at offset
0x10E291, VID at response[4..20]. The 16 bytes match Dune Part Two's
known VID in keydb.cfg byte-for-byte, cross-validating the path
against an independent oracle.
Architectural impact:
- Renames `Drive::is_libredrive_active()` → `Drive::is_unlocked()`.
Internal `Mt1959::libredrive_active` becomes `Mt1959::unlocked`;
the prior `unlocked` (init-success flag) becomes `init_complete`
to avoid the name collision.
- `disc/encrypt.rs::Disc::read_vid` is the single entry point.
When `is_unlocked()` is true, calls `read_vid_oem` (issues the
per-drive CDB, validates the response signature high-3-bytes
`00 22 00`, returns bytes [4..20]). Otherwise delegates to
`read_vid_cert` (the existing AACS REPORT_KEY format 0x80 path).
- `DriveProfile` gains the per-drive CDB templates and identifier
blocks extracted from each per-drive firmware payload — including
`read_vid_cdb`, `read_disc_keys_cdb`, `drive_nominal_speed_cdb`,
`set_speed_max_cdb`, two cache-prime canary CDBs, the buffer-0x45
verify CDB, the firmware-upload CDB, and the unlock probe CDB.
Variants A and B differ in which fields are populated. All optional;
consumers fall back to the cert/handshake path when fields are
absent.
- New error variants `Error::DriveProfileMissing` (E7020) and
`Error::VidCdbUnavailable` (E7021). Both treated as
"OEM unavailable → try cert path" by `read_vid`, not terminal.
Closes the v0.25.x gap where HRL-burned host certs (the public
libaacs leaked cert is on every recent drive's HRL) blocked all
post-handshake VID retrieval. With OEM-driven VID:
- AACS 1.0 BD on supported drives: rips end-to-end with our existing
DKs walking the MKB.
- AACS 2.x UHD: fails honestly at the DK wall (E7018 "No usable DK"
for v77+ MKBs) instead of the misleading E7017 "No Volume ID"
the prior code surfaced. We have VID; we just don't have v77+ DK
material — that gap is a key-acquisition problem, not a code
problem.
Empirically verified on rip1 (BU40N + Barbie UHD, MKB v77,
2026-05-21): error code flipped from E7017 to E7018 as predicted.
The DK wall is now correctly the proximate failure for unrippable
modern UHD discs, instead of the indirect VID-retrieval wall the
v0.25.x cert-only path produced.
Renames and comment scrubs eliminate upstream-RE-vocabulary
references in the public crate per `feedback_no_breadcrumbs.md`.
674 tests pass (565 lib + 109 integration). No tradename leaks in
any modified file.
Three coherent threads landing for v0.25.11:
1. Libredrive raw-read VID path. When Mt1959::do_unlock sees both the
MMkv active-mode marker at [12..16] and the LbDr mode-ID marker at
[16..20], Drive::is_libredrive_active() returns true and
do_handshake skips the AACS cert dance — VID is retrieved via
READ_DISC_STRUCTURE format 0x80 with AGID=0 and bus encryption is
already off. This unblocks UHD ripping on drives whose leaked host
cert is on the AACS HRL.
- platform/mt1959/mod.rs: detection + active flag + 4 unit tests.
- platform/mod.rs: PlatformDriver::is_libredrive_active trait method.
- drive/mod.rs: Drive::is_libredrive_active accessor.
- disc/encrypt.rs: do_handshake branches on the flag; new
read_volume_id_libredrive helper. Return type widened to
(Option<HandshakeResult>, Option<Error>) so callers see which
specific failure happened.
- disc/mod.rs: scan_with plumbs the new tuple through and preserves
handshake errors as disc.aacs_error.
2. Revert v0.25.9 built-in AACS keys + plugin slot. Single source of
AACS truth: keydb.cfg. The compiled-in DKs/PKs were a slim
convenience that didn't move the hard problem (no v77+ DKs) and
added a maintenance surface. Plugin slot was overlapping
functionality with the main keydb.
- Deleted src/aacs/builtin_keys.rs (4 DKs + 3 PKs).
- Removed KeyDb::with_builtins, load_or_builtins, merge_from,
merge_local_plugin, local_plugin_path, internal dedup helpers.
KeyDb::empty kept for unit-test use.
- KeyDb::load reverts to pre-0.25.9 form: read file or return I/O
error; no fallback.
- disc::encrypt::resolve_encryption keydb_path back to required
(&Path), not Option<&Path>.
- disc::scan_with surfaces KeydbLoad { path: "<no keydb in search
paths>" } sentinel when encrypted + no keydb — same sentinel
autorip's message switch already handles.
- CSS player keys in src/css/auth.rs stay compiled in; they're
1999-era public inputs separate from AACS and pre-date the 0.25.9
additions.
3. Walker fix follow-through (libaacs-parity validate_processing_key,
cvalues 0x07-then-0x05 preference, path-2/3/4 short-circuit on
zero VID) + NIST AES-CMAC KAT + VID MAC round-trip / mutation /
zero-rejection tests.
5 new Error variants for finer-grained AACS failure reporting:
AacsHostCertRejected (E7015), AacsLibredriveUnsupported (E7016),
AacsVidUnavailable (E7017), AacsMkUnavailable (E7018),
AacsVukNotInKeydb (E7019). Lets CLIs/UIs render which piece of the
AACS chain failed instead of always saying "no keys."
WO-2 (delete SectorReader trait):
- The 0.18 trait split into SectorSource (read-only) and SectorSink
(write-only) is final; the legacy SectorReader alias was a bridge.
- Renames every internal &mut dyn SectorReader (~25 sites) to
&mut dyn SectorSource. The trait method capacity() becomes
capacity_sectors() with a default of 0 (preserves SectorReader's
default-0 behavior).
- Deletes the SectorReader trait, its blanket-to-Source bridge, and
the FileSectorReader type alias. Adds explicit forwarding impls
for Box<dyn SectorSource> and &mut dyn SectorSource so generic
decorators like DecryptingSectorSource<S: SectorSource> compose.
WO-3a (extract Disc::patch):
- Moves Disc::patch (1230 lines) and bytes_bad_in_title from
disc/mod.rs into disc/patch.rs as a split inherent impl. Zero
behavior change — pure mechanical relocation. disc/mod.rs drops
from 3,945 to 2,714 LOC.
WO-6 (partial):
- Deletes src/labels/png_filenames.rs — was a 72-LOC stub with
detect() returning false, never wired into the PARSERS registry.
project docs doc drift fixes (audited 2026-05-13):
- JUMP_BASE_SECTORS: 256→1024 (64 MB base for UHD, not 8 MB)
- PASSN_DAMAGE_THRESHOLD_PCT: 12→6
- PASSN_SKIP_SECTORS_BASE: 64→32
- MAX_RANGE_SECS=180: replaced by proportional range_sectors × 25,
capped at RANGE_BUDGET_CAP_SECS=1800.
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.
- CopyOptions: replace resume/skip_on_error/batch_sectors with single multipass bool
- Disc::copy() auto-detects pass from mapfile state: no mapfile or NonTried → sweep, only NonTrimmed/Unreadable → patch
- Fix bug where mapfile with NonTried regions incorrectly dispatched to patch mode
- SectorReader::set_speed() default method, Drive impl sends SET CD SPEED
- On damage zone entry: set_speed(0x0000) for better error recovery
- On damage zone exit (50 consecutive good): set_speed(0xFFFF) to restore max speed
- Disc::mapfile_for() returns /tmp/<name>.mapfile for null:// output
- patch_internal/sweep_internal as private helpers, CopyResult gains recovered_this_pass
Fix extract_scsi_context() and Error::scsi_sense() to handle Error::DiscRead
in addition to Error::ScsiError, so is_marginal_read() works for DiscRead
errors and disc::copy() can properly route MEDIUM ERROR as a marginal
(bad sector) instead of bailing.
Closes: (internal)#20260427
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.
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).
Drive::read is now halt-check-free in its body. Previously, the halt
flag was checked in 4 places and the sleep logic was scattered across
4 "if halt_aware_sleep { return Halted }" call sites — correct, but
the ugliness invited drift: a new sleep added by someone unfamiliar
with the pattern would silently swallow Stop requests.
Two private primitives now own halt awareness:
checked_sleep(Duration) -> Result<()>
checked_exec(cdb, dir, buf, timeout_ms) -> Result<ScsiResult>
Both return Err(Halted) instead of a bool. The ? operator in read()
then propagates halts for free. The recovery path reads top-to-bottom
with no halt vocabulary.
sleep_until_halted lives as a free function so it's unit-testable
without a live Drive. 4 new tests: completes normally, bails on
pre-set flag within one slice, wakes mid-sleep, zero-duration no-op.
Public API unchanged — halt_flag/halt/clear_halt still exposed, the
refactor is entirely internal.
Stop was waiting up to 30 s to register when the drive hit L-EC
recovery mid-read — the recovery phase does 30 s sleeps between
retries and the halt flag was only checked at the start of each sleep.
UI feels broken ("stop isnt working") even though the halt was set.
halt_aware_sleep breaks each wait into 100 ms slices and returns
early on halt. Applied to all 4 sleeps in the recovery path (both
30 s retry delays, both 5 s reset-phase delays).
Disc::copy fast pass (skip_on_error=true, recovery=false) was giving
the drive 5 s per 64 KB block. On structure-protected / marginal UHD
sectors the drive grinds L-EC for nearly the full budget per block,
pinning throughput at ~13 KB/s even though skip_forward would happily
skip past the region.
1500ms bounds the floor at ~43 KB/s/block. Recoverable sectors that
would have succeeded at 3-5 s get picked up on Disc::patch (pass 2+)
where recovery=true and the per-read budget is 30 s.
