Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

:eek:

Hmm, maybe you'll want to re-read my post again :P . It leaks ~16k on every swipe to unlock and if you unlock your device 5-10 times per hour (like I do), at the end of the day we'll have ~1MB of leaked memory. After 3 days of uptime, systemui on my device was eating about 7MB of heap. That's pretty high leak by all measurements.

TBH I don't think h-d and h-h leak by themselves, I'll put my bet on some buggy widget ;)

ARM RE is the same (in principle) as x86 RE. The problem is that there is no HexRays for ARM. At least in IDA on TPB :D

Now it looks like Maemo leaks more that a sick hooker. :eek:

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

But this is only when you actually use the swipe-to-unlock?! I never use it (the N900 has a hardware spring-loaded switch to do that, in case you haven't seen it :)

Oh. I'm much more old-fashioed than that (OK, more "cracking" than actual RE). Until the Pentium I just used a hex editor :) (I think around that time, early 90s, the first version of IDA appeared).

That was obviously only useful to change a bit here and there, but not for solving memory leaks :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

I've seen it :) . It is just that usually I hold my n900 with one hand, using side unlock switch that way is uncomfortable, not to say impossible.

yeah, binary editing is a different kind of beer, what we want here is a good source code to be put in CSSU. Not saying it is impossible to be done without hexrays (I did it for facebook-whatever-the-name-was), it is just much harder and time-consuming

It could be worse ;)

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

Hey reinob,

you did that script on an Ubuntu laptop, right?
ps on our N900 does not know of ps -o (neither stock nor power).
So Imodified:
# open(FH, "ps -eo vsz,command |");
open(FH, "ps | awk \'{print \$3\" \"\$5}\' |");
but now getting non numeric errors, like
Argument "102m" isn't numeric in addition (+) at my/checkVSZ.perl line 44, <FH> line 14885.

If you could do some pimping, please (I am bad, very bad in perl)?

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

But I've tested it on my N900 (with busybox-power). I'll check it, but probably you won't hear from me until monday!

Add.: my /bin/ps is the one from package procps!!

Add.: there's also sp-memusage package with mem-monitor and mem-monitor-smaps tool. The latter can monitor only a single procress, but gives more detailed information!

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

Does the silence here means that everything works or that noone uses that? :P

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

Shhhh.. they are all sleeping! :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE]Alarm UI replacement
 

Hey, it was weekend :)
And today one day off :D
Still loaded (latest version) and will report back, But takes some time ...

And as long as there is silence, there is no alarm (scheduled) or everything is working fine.
