matthew dc174e2c3d aacs: libredrive raw-read VID path + revert v0.25.9 built-ins + walker fix follow-through
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."

libfreemkv — Rules

No English in library code

The library contains ZERO user-facing English text. All errors use numeric codes from error.rs. Applications (CLI, GUI, server) handle i18n.

  • io::Error::new(kind, "english string") — NEVER. Use Error::VariantName.into().
  • If you need a new error, add a variant to error.rs with a code, not a string.
  • Acceptable strings: debug/trace logging, test assertions, comments, data format strings (paths, codec IDs).
  • Error implements From<Error> for io::Error — use ? or .into() anywhere an io::Error is expected.

Architecture

  • Streams are PES. Every stream reads its format → PES frames out, or PES frames in → writes its format. One type per format.
  • Disc::copy() for sector dumps. disc→ISO is NOT a stream. It's Disc::copy().
  • DiscStream = any disc. Physical drive or ISO file. Same type, different SectorReader.
  • No IOStream. Deleted. No byte-level Read/Write on streams.
  • Streams don't know their size. Progress/file_size is a CLI concern.
  • One method per action. No foo_with_X variants. Use Option<T> params.
  • Streams impl Read only (conceptually). No Seek, no File backing.
  • Functions return errors, only main() exits. No process::exit in library code.

Device rules

  • Always use /dev/sg* not /dev/sr* for SCSI.
  • --raw only skips decryption. Init/probe/speed still run.
  • Each function does one thing. One runner orchestrates the sequence.

AACS key sources

Single source: keydb.cfg. Located at ~/.config/freemkv/keydb.cfg by default, or pointed at via ScanOptions::keydb_path. The file holds all DKs, PKs, host certs, and per-disc VUK entries. No keys are compiled into the binary.

CSS player keys (DVD) remain compiled in — they're 1999-era public inputs separate from the AACS key pipeline and have always lived in src/css/auth.rs.

The library treats a missing keydb.cfg for an AACS-encrypted disc as Error::KeydbLoad with the sentinel path <no keydb in search paths>. CLIs render this as "no KEYDB.cfg found"; consumers can disambiguate on the sentinel string.

macOS IOKit transport

The macOS SCSI transport uses exclusive IOKit access, not hybrid MMC+pread.

  • C shim (src/scsi/macos_shim.c):
    • shim_open_exclusive(bsd_name): diskutil unmountDisk force on target device only → find IOBDServices matching BSD name via IOKit registry walk → MMCDeviceInterface → SCSITaskDeviceInterface → ObtainExclusiveAccess → raw CDB dispatch.
    • shim_list_drives(): registry-based enumeration. Walks all IOBDServices entries, reads "Device Characteristics" for vendor/model/firmware, walks child chain to IOMedia for BSD name. Zero SCSI, zero exclusive access, zero unmounts.
    • shim_execute() / shim_close(): raw CDB dispatch and cleanup.
  • Build (build.rs): compiles shim via cc into static lib, linked by Cargo. NOT the cc crate (produces object code that breaks IOKit exclusive access).
  • Rust (src/scsi/macos.rs): FFI to shim_open_exclusive, shim_close, shim_execute, shim_list_drives. list_drives() uses registry-based enumeration. MacScsiTransport::open() uses exclusive access only when ripping a specific device.
  • IOBDServices parent chain: IOSCSIPeripheralDeviceType05 → IOBDServices → IOBDBlockStorageDriver → IOMedia (has "BSD Name"). The shim walks this chain to match BSD name to IOBDServices.
  • IOKit lookup order: (1) iterate all IOBDServices → match child IOMedia BSD name, (2) fallback: find IOMedia by BSD name → walk parent chain to IOBDServices, (3) fallback: first IOBDServices (single-drive systems).
  • Test disc: DUNE_PART_TWO UHD, /dev/disk6, ~84.6 GB.

Bad-sector handling (BU40N + Initio INIC-1618L)

Three failure modes on this USB bridge:

  1. NOT READY (sense_key=2, ASC=0x04, ASCQ=0x3E) — most common on BU40N for bad sectors. Pause 3s, retry up to 3x, then mark NonTrimmed.
  2. Transport failure (status=0xFF) — bridge crash, auto-recovers ~15s. Aborts copy.
  3. INCOMPATIBLE FORMAT (ASC=0x30) wedge — ALL sectors fail, requires power cycle.

Damage-jump algorithm (Pass 1 sweep)

When skip_on_error=true (multipass mode):

  • Read each ECC block sequentially. Track a sliding window of the last 16 ECC block results.
  • On error: zero-fill, mark NonTrimmed, push false to window.
  • On success: write data, mark Finished, push true to window. Track consecutive good count.
  • When ≥12% of the 16-block window are failures → jump ahead by JUMP_BASE_SECTORS (1024) × batch × multiplier sectors. For UHD encrypted ECC (batch=32) that's a 64 MiB base jump. Zero-fill the gap as NonTrimmed. Double the multiplier (64→128→256→512 MiB...) up to MAX_JUMP_MULTIPLIER=64 (4 GiB cap). Plus a separate wedge-skip path of WEDGE_JUMP_SECTORS=524288 (1 GiB) for HARDWARE_ERROR / ILLEGAL_REQUEST senses, capped at 16 consecutive wedges.
  • When 16 consecutive good reads → reset multiplier to 1, restore max read speed.
  • Only transport failures (bridge crash) abort the pass.

Tuning knobs: DAMAGE_WINDOW=16 and DAMAGE_THRESHOLD_PCT=12%. Calibrated from live BU40N data: old 50/25% was too diluted by good reads between sparse failures; 16/12% triggers on the 2nd scattered failure (2/16 = 12.5% ≥ 12%).

Patch (Pass N) — disc/mod.rs:1910

  • Default: reverse mode. Walks bad ranges from highest LBA to lowest, and within each range from end to start. Rationale: sweep jumps forward with escalating gaps, so NonTrimmed ranges have good data at their tail (where the jump landed). Reverse hits good data first, converges on actual bad block boundaries.
  • Single-sector reads with 60 s timeout (READ_RECOVERY_TIMEOUT_MS).
  • NOT_READY (sense=2, ASC ∈ {0x02, 0x03, 0x04}): 15 s pause, retry without immediate Unreadable mark.
  • Non-marginal SCSI sense → mark Unreadable and continue.
  • Skip escalation: damage window 16, PASSN_DAMAGE_THRESHOLD_PCT=6, skip PASSN_SKIP_SECTORS_BASE (32) << escalation sectors capped at PASSN_SKIP_SECTORS_CAP=4096; MAX_SKIPS_PER_RANGE=10, then mark range Unreadable.
  • Wedge exit: 50 consecutive failures and ≥ 2 ranges attempted (single-range stalls don't kill the pass).
  • Whole-pass watchdog: STALL_SECS = 3600 on bytes_good. Per-range watchdog: proportional range_sectors × SECONDS_PER_SECTOR(25), capped at RANGE_BUDGET_CAP_SECS=1800 (replaces the old flat 180s/range — tiny ranges got starved).

Constants live in disc/patch.rs::Disc::patch (PASSN_*, STALL_SECS, SECONDS_PER_SECTOR, RANGE_BUDGET_CAP_SECS, MAX_SKIPS_PER_RANGE). The full algorithm is documented in freemkv-private/memory/project_recovery_v0_16.md.

Public repo rules

  • No internal docs. Audit reports, test plans, roadmaps, TODOs go in freemkv-private, never here.
  • No Co-Authored-By in commit messages. One contributor: MattJackson.
  • No private references. No Gitea URLs, no /data/code paths, no internal IPs in code.
