* Don't run multiple collectSubprocesses tasks in parallel.
UIManager:scheduleIn doesn't return anything, using that as a boolean trap made no sense.
* Make the in-place removal of collected pids use a slightly more common idiom
(table.remove in a reverse iteration of said array).
cores
* Only keep a single core online most of the time.
* Device: Add an enableCPUCores method to allow controlling the amount of
online CPU cores.
* Move the initial core onlining setup to Kobo:init, instead of the startup script.
* Enable two CPU cores while hinting new (e.g., cache miss) pages in PDF land.
* Enable two CPU cores while processing book metadata.
* Drive-by fix to isolate the DocCache pressure check to KoptInterface
and actually apply it when it matters most (e.g., k2pdfopt stuff).
* Cleanup util.secondsFrom*Clock stuff (simpler maths, tail calls, meaningful printf tokens).
* Use util.secondsToClockDuration in ReadTimer instead of reinventing the wheel three different ways.
* Reschedule unexpired timers properly on resume (as best as we can, given the unreliable nature of REALTIME).
* Make clock timers tick on the dot, instead of at the same second as when being set.
* Speaking of clock timers, leave the math to os.date & os.time, don't reinvent the wheel yet again.
* ReaderDictionary: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* ReaderHighlight: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* ReaderView: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Android: Reset gesture detection state on APP_CMD_TERM_WINDOW.
This prevents potentially being stuck in bogus gesture states when switching apps.
* GestureDetector:
* Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Fixed delay computations to handle time warps (large and negative deltas).
* Simplified timed callback handling to invalidate timers much earlier, preventing accumulating useless timers that no longer have any chance of ever detecting a gesture.
* Fixed state clearing to handle the actual effective slots, instead of hard-coding slot 0 & slot 1.
* Simplified timed callback handling in general, and added support for a timerfd backend for better performance and accuracy.
* The improved timed callback handling allows us to detect and honor (as much as possible) the three possible clock sources usable by Linux evdev events.
The only case where synthetic timestamps are used (and that only to handle timed callbacks) is limited to non-timerfd platforms where input events use
a clock source that is *NOT* MONOTONIC.
AFAICT, that's pretty much... PocketBook, and that's it?
* Input:
* Use the <linux/input.h> FFI module instead of re-declaring every constant
* Fixed (verbose) debug logging of input events to actually translate said constants properly.
* Completely reset gesture detection state on suspend. This should prevent bogus gesture detection on resume.
* Refactored the waitEvent loop to make it easier to comprehend (hopefully) and much more efficient.
Of specific note, it no longer does a crazy select spam every 100µs, instead computing and relying on sane timeouts,
as afforded by switching the UI event/input loop to the MONOTONIC time base, and the refactored timed callbacks in GestureDetector.
* reMarkable: Stopped enforcing synthetic timestamps on input events, as it should no longer be necessary.
* TimeVal:
* Refactored and simplified, especially as far as metamethods are concerned (based on <bsd/sys/time.h>).
* Added a host of new methods to query the various POSIX clock sources, and made :now default to MONOTONIC.
* Removed the debug guard in __sub, as time going backwards can be a perfectly normal occurrence.
* New methods:
* Clock sources: :realtime, :monotonic, :monotonic_coarse, :realtime_coarse, :boottime
* Utility: :tonumber, :tousecs, :tomsecs, :fromnumber, :isPositive, :isZero
* UIManager:
* Ported event loop & scheduling to TimeVal, and switched to the MONOTONIC time base.
This ensures reliable and consistent scheduling, as time is ensured never to go backwards.
* Added a :getTime() method, that returns a cached TimeVal:now(), updated at the top of every UI frame.
It's used throughout the codebase to cadge a syscall in circumstances where we are guaranteed that a syscall would return a mostly identical value,
because very few time has passed.
The only code left that does live syscalls does it because it's actually necessary for accuracy,
and the only code left that does that in a REALTIME time base is code that *actually* deals with calendar time (e.g., Statistics).
* DictQuickLookup: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* FootNoteWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* HTMLBoxWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* Notification: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* TextBoxWidget: Port delay computations to TimeVal
* AutoSuspend: Port to TimeVal
* AutoTurn:
* Fix it so that settings are actually honored.
* Port to TimeVal
* BackgroundRunner: Port to TimeVal
* Calibre: Port benchmarking code to TimeVal
* BookInfoManager: Removed unnecessary yield in the metadata extraction subprocess now that subprocesses get scheduled properly.
* All in all, these changes reduced the CPU cost of a single tap by a factor of ten (!), and got rid of an insane amount of weird poll/wakeup cycles that must have been hell on CPU schedulers and batteries..
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Updated readSetting API to allow proper initialization to default.
Use it to initialize tables, e.g., fixing corner-cases in readerFooter that could prevent settings from being saved.
(Fixes an issue reported on Gitter).
* LuaSettings/DocSettings: Add simpler API than the the flip* ones to toggle boolean settings.
* Update LuaSettings/DocSettigns usage throughout the codebase to use the dedicated boolean methods wher appropriate, and clean up some of the more mind-bending uses.
* FileChooser: Implement an extended default exclusion list (fix#2360)
* ScreenSaver: Refactor to avoid the pile of kludges this was threatening to become. Code should be easier to follow and use, and fallbacks now behave as expected (fix#4418).
* Menu/KeyValuePage/ReaderGoTo: Unify the dialogs. (Generally, "Enter page number" as title, and "Go to page" as OK button).
* Allow *tapping* on pagination buttons, too. Added spacers around the text to accommodate for that.
* Disable input handlers when <= 1 pages, while still printing the label in black.
* Always display both the label and the chevrons, even on single page content. (Menu being an exception, because it can handle showing no content at all, in which case we hide the chevrons).
* KVP: Tweak the pagination buttons layout in order to have consistent centering, regardless of whether the return arrow is enabled or not. (Also, match Menu's layout, more or less).
* Menu: Minor layout tweaks to follow the KVP tweaks above. Fixes, among possibly other things, buttons in (non-FM) "List" menus overlapping the final entry (e.g., OPDS), and popout menus with a border being misaligned (e.g., Calibre, Find a file).
* CalendarView: Minor layout tweaks to follow the KVP tweaks. Ensures the pagination buttons are laid out in the same way as everywhere else (they used to be a wee bit higher).
Move classic file browser settings from CoverBrowser plugin
into FileManagerMenu, so they are available when this
plugin is disabled (as they also apply to everything
based on Menu).
* QuickDictLookup, ImageViewer, NumberPicker: Smarter `update` that will re-use most of the widget's layout instead of re-instantiating all the things.
* SpinWidget/DoubleSpinWidget: The NumberPicker change above renders a hack to preserve alpha on these widgets almost unnecessary. Also fixed said hack to also apply to the center, value button.
* Button: Don't re-instantiate the frame in setText/setIcon when unnecessary (e.g., no change at all, or no layout change).
* Button: Add a refresh method that repaints and refreshes a *specific* Button (provided it's been painted once) all on its lonesome.
* ConfigDialog: Free everything that's going to be re-instatiated on update
* A few more post #7118 fixes:
* SkimTo: Always flag the chapter nav buttons as vsync
* Button: Fix the highlight on rounded buttons when vsync is enabled (e.g., it's now entirely visible, instead of showing a weird inverted corner glitch).
* Some more heuristic tweaks in Menu/TouchMenu/Button/IconButton
* ButtonTable: fix the annoying rounding issue I'd noticed in #7054 ;).
* Enable dithering in TextBoxWidget (e.g., in the Wikipedia full view). This involved moving the HW dithering align fixup to base, where it always ought to have been ;).
* Switch a few widgets that were using "partial" on close to "ui", or, more rarely, "flashui". The intent being to limit "partial" purely to the Reader, because it has a latency cost when mixed with other refreshes, which happens often enough in UI ;).
* Minor documentation tweaks around UIManager's `setDirty` to reflect that change.
* ReaderFooter: Force a footer repaint on resume if it is visible (otherwise, just update it).
* ReaderBookmark: In the same vein, don't repaint an invisible footer on bookmark count changes.
* Fix typo in dropbox
Reported by @lescheck
* Rephrase text justification explanation more elegantly
* CoverBrowser: fix up some plurals
* Statistics: remove random use of template function
* Use ngettext for minute/minutes and second/seconds
* Change KB/MB/GB to kB/MB/GB SI units
Avoid opening two connections in //, by feeding the current connection
to saveSetting, like we were already doing for loadSettings...
It somehow worked just fine on Kobo/Emu, but blew up in fun and
interesting ways on Kindle, probably because of the Fuse proxy.
It was still pretty dumb nonetheless.
- Add IconWidget, use it for icons instead of ImageWidget.
Specify icons by name only, look for them (with either
.svg or .png suffixes) in multiple directories (including
koreader/settings/icons/ to allow customizing them).
Don't crash when icon name not found, shown a black
background warning icon instead.
- Don't trust the icons' native sizes: replace
scale_for_dpi=true with width/height=DGENERIC_ICON_SIZE,
so all icons get the same (tunable) size - except in
a few specific use cases.
- Top and bottom menu bars: normalize, and have icons
properly centered in them, extend vertical line
separators up to the edges.
- TOC: adjust expand/collapse icons size to items size
* Avoid the Lua string copies when compressing/uncompressing the bb
thumbs
* Delay the statement reset so that the pointer returned by the BLOB
query is actually usable ;).
* Re-use a ZSTD decompression context
* Store date & mtime for successfully extracted documents
c.f., 10477501f9 (r44914917)
* Switch to user_version pragma to handle DB schema versioning
* Update file size/date on *each* extraction attempt.
@poirez-z raised a good point, this ought to be useful to deem a file
re-parseable after an update.
* Remove xutil
Functionality has been moved to ffi/zlib & ffi/zstd
* Preserve settings when migrating the BookInfo DB
* Warn via InfoMessage that the DB was updated
* Only store the series name in series, and move the index in series_index
(Column names chosen to match Calibre's).
* Handle the new series_index column in BookInfo consumers
* This allows us to get rid of the code that stripped empty decimals
from series index in *most* places, since it's now a real Lua
number, and the string formatting library does that magic on its
own.
* stride is now a size_t
On some platforms, that's 64 bits, which means it's no longer
automatically converted to a Lua number to avoid precision loss.
Do that ourselves, because lua-serialize doesn't know how to handle an
uint64_t cdata ;).
* Update the data collection format & handler to make it much less tortuous
* Update the pagecount & resync the stats on document layout changes
* Update the database schema to allow doing most queries against a SQL view that rescales the collected data to be accurate regardless of document layout (thanks to @marek-g for the SQL magic ;)).
* Add a "reset stats for current book" entry in the list of reset options, one that won't horribly break stats in said book ;).
* Fixed a couple of resource (SQL connection) leaks (in ReaderStatistics:getCurrentBookStats & ReaderStatistics:getCurrentBookStats).
* Flush stats to the DB on periodical metadata saves.
* Minor cosmetic tweaks to the code
Also prevent very long directory names from overflowing
over neighbour items.
Also bump base for lua-ljsqlite3 to use sqlite3_close_v2()
and avoid possible crashes.
Slow browsing and exiting (ex: closing History) could
be noticed when the memory usage is already high (as the
GC has a lot of memory to visit). Delaying it to after
the new screen is shown limits the feeling of slowness.
- Use same names for options;
- Have them both movable
- Add option to keep widget shown on Apply (and use that
when appropriate: when the value may have an immediate
visual effect, so one can tweak it without having to
go thru menus to re-open it again).
Really needed these :resetLayout() (as done in Menu.lua)
when stuff is right aligned (otherwise, first computation
of x-offset, when there was no content, being Screen.width,
would stick, and would draw the content off-screen on the
right - no issue noticed when left-aligned as the offsets
would stay being 0 whether there is content or none).
* File search: Don't traverse hidden folders if we're not showing them
Re https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3949194&postcount=21
* Ignore macOS resource forks, too.
* Apply the same logic to the BookInfo directory walker
* And never ever show resource forks in the FM, either.
Gives the book language to Text*Widget (and XText) when
drawing title, authors and other metadata text.
Might be needed to properly display a Japanese book title
when the UI language is Chinese.
bidi.lua:
- Revert "Alias everything to Bidi.nowrap() when in LTR UI,
as using LTR isolates seems uneeded when already LTR" (part
of a628714f) which was a wrong assumption: we need proper
wrappers for all things paths. Enhance some of these wrappers.
- Fix GetText RTL wrapping which was losing empty lines and
trailing \n.
- Wrap all paths, directories, filenames in the code with
these wrappers.
- Wrap all book metadata (title, authors...) with BD.auto(),
as it helps fixing some edge cases (like open/close quotation
marks which are not considered as bracket types by FriBiDi).
(Needed some minor logic changes in CoverBrowser.)
- Tweak hyphenation menu text
- Update forgotten SortWidget for UI mirroring
- KoptConfig: update "justification" index for RTL re-ordering,
following the recent addition of the page_gap_height option.
Update words wrapping tweaks for use_xtext: add zero-width spaces
around dots and underscores to allow more wraps.
Fix overlap of directory name and nbitems for long directory names.
Small tweaks all around to handle UI mirroring:
- swap existing symbols like arrows, or use alternative ones
- rotate some images, like chevrons and dogear icons
- flip some left and right swipe handling
- flip some geometry arithmetic like tap on left or right
side of page or dict window
- use new ProgressWidget:getPercentageFromPosition() instead
of geometry arithmetic
- BD.wrap() some concatenated string bits, like in reader
and menu footers
- flip inverse_reading_order when UI is mirrored
More specific tweaks:
- ReaderGesture: reset some specific gestures when UI direction
has changed (tap on top/bottom left/right corners, for
bookmarks and FileManager "Plus menu").
- ReaderRolling: show markers on the correct side of page,
in single or dual page mode.
- KoptOptions: swap left and right icons in Alignment toggle
- CheckMark: proper rendering in all 4 mirroring/rtl combinations.
- VirtualKeyboard: forbid any mirroring
- Move util.getMenuText into Menu.lua
Left align partially filled rows for File browser/chooser, but
have them centered for History and Favorites for a prettier
look when only a few items are displayed.
Avoid saving/getting "12.0" (as the lua-ljsqlite3 driver does),
and save/get "12" instead by properly converting it to a string
and back, as the config.value table column is of type TEXT.
- Use a hardcoded default value of 10 files per page.
- Save cover sizetag as "s<nb of items per page>" instead
of "s<item height>" so they are stable (and not re-fetched)
when switching between FileBrowser and History, which have
some small geometry differences.
- When showing History in landscape mode, decrease perpage
from the set value, so items don't look smaller.
- Use a step, larger with big items, when iterating and decreasing
font sizes to make text fit, to speed up the process a bit.
