Session 92: THE AUTOMATED PIPELINE - fresh boot to VKDEVICE with ZERO manual steps.** +On a fresh r692 boot (cycle params unchanged, gr_forward=0) a single gdb +script (t99.py) carrying two breakpoint handlers drove the client end-to-end: +(a) the instance-phase marker cleaner at eglcore+0xB33D30 (t94 pattern: clear +u16@slot+0xe / u16@slot+0xc / u32@slot to 0 per entry at ptr+n*0x10 for +entries *(obj+0x1428+i*8), cnt *(obj+0x22efc)) - fired CLEAR#1..#5 across +five module objects; (b) the device-phase wait-word chaser at +eglcore+0xDCEBD9 (t79 chain: rbx -> *(rbx+0x70) -> *(sub+0x58)=obj2 -> + off=*(u32)(obj2+0x60), holder=*(obj2+0x58), base=*(holder+0x58), +word=base+off) - found WORD addr=0x734781a86080 val=0x0 and wrote 1. +Result: `VKINSTANCE ok / VKDEVS 2 / VKPICK / VKDEVICE ok family=0` with no +manual intervention (r692 client 1725). The client then sat in the +POST-DEVICE wait (the next phase - allocation/engine-init), which t99 does +not cover. The live_walk PT-walk injector ran alongside and injected the +window/ring VAs (0x4d20000, 0x4923000...; note 0x4b19b10 resolved ap=FB - +the GL init release is vidmem-mapped and skipped by the SYS-only injector). + +**11. HARD LESSON (attach discipline, again).** A gdb attached to a client +that never hits its breakpoints wedges: `continue` never returns, the +timeout's SIGTERM does not tear it down, and the ptrace slot blocks all +later attaches (hit 3x this session: 146084, the t91-on-1725 attach, both +left holding). RULE: only attach with breakpoints that are KNOWN to fire +for the client's current phase, keep windows <= ~60 s, and prefer +self-terminating handlers (hit caps). A wedged attach leaves the client +RUNNING (state R) but unattachable; cycle the VM for a clean environment +when more attaches are needed. + +**12. Continuing the chain (next session).** (1) Identify the post-device +wait of the VKDEVICE-ok client (bt sample once attachable; likely the +allocation/UVM phase or the A8/NvOgl engine-init with its count gate at +lib_base+0x2070b7c=4 -> 0 and/or the 0xdceb80 wait loop - add the t91 +count-clear BP to the t99 bundle if the A8 path is live). (2) Extend t99 +into the "durable harness bundle": marker-clean + word-chase + count-clear ++ (once VKFRAME) the release/alloc phases. (3) The bNotifyList=1 +(gsp_rm_ev_nlist) path stays armed for the event-signal experiment; +post/EVPOST logging re-budgeted (gsp_rm_ev_log=2000 set). |
