SIM speed enhancement re-enabled and made configurable
TI's original code supported SIM speed enhancement, but Openmoko had it
disabled, and OM's disabling of speed enhancement somehow caused certain
SIM cards to start working which didn't work before (OM's bug #666).
Because our FC community is much smaller in year 2020 than OM's community
was in their day, we are not able to find one of those #666-affected SIMs,
thus the real issue they had encountered remains elusive. Thus our
solution is to re-enable SIM speed enhancement and simply wait for if
and when someone runs into a #666-affected SIM once again. We provide
a SIM_allow_speed_enhancement global variable that allows SIM speed
enhancement to be enabled or disabled per session, and an /etc/SIM_spenh
file in FFS that allows it to enabled or disabled on a non-volatile
basis. SIM speed enhancement is now enabled by default.

# TI's original version of the pf_TaskEntry() function in the guts of GPF # does this number once all GPF tasks have entered their main loop: # # TraceMask[0] = 0; # # The effect of this line is that "system" trace output gets disabled; # in particular, "system primitive" requests like querying for existing # TRACECLASS of various entities or for the GPF version elicit no response # whatsoever until one sends a TRACECLASS setting sysprim which restores # the TC_SYSTEM bit in TraceMask[0]. # # In FreeCalypso we consider this clearing of TraceMask[0] to be either # a bug or a misfeature, and we would like to change it. In the case of # the GPF code in question, we do have a copy of frame.c source (the module # where the offending pf_TaskEntry() function is implemented) which we believe # is the same code as what's in the TCS211 version of GPF, but TCS211 is not # set up to recompile any part of GPF from source, and there are other modules # in the same frame_na7_db_ir.lib for which we don't have the original source # (os_*), hence it is easier to do a binary lib patch. # # The present patch is a binary form of: # # -TraceMask[0] = 0; # +TraceMask[0] = TC_SYSTEM; [frame.obj] .text 2ee 10
