From b509ff5069acc2d1c63ea501fbc27e08c7e263d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Arnold Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2006 18:26:14 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Patch #3022 by Mikael Magnusson: Only zero out the actual bss area instead of the whole plugiin buffer, for faster plugin loading. * Applied the same idea to the overlay loader. git-svn-id: svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk@9535 a1c6a512-1295-4272-9138-f99709370657 --- apps/plugin.c | 5 +++-- apps/plugins/lib/overlay.c | 5 ++++- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/apps/plugin.c b/apps/plugin.c index 57bc09530a..b023a6553f 100644 --- a/apps/plugin.c +++ b/apps/plugin.c @@ -490,8 +490,6 @@ int plugin_load(const char* plugin, void* parameter) gui_syncsplash(HZ*2, true, str(LANG_PLUGIN_CANT_OPEN), plugin); return fd; } - /* zero out plugin buffer to ensure a properly zeroed bss area */ - memset(pluginbuf, 0, PLUGIN_BUFFER_SIZE); readsize = read(fd, pluginbuf, PLUGIN_BUFFER_SIZE); close(fd); @@ -516,6 +514,9 @@ int plugin_load(const char* plugin, void* parameter) return -1; } plugin_size = hdr->end_addr - pluginbuf; + + /* zero out bss area only, above guards end of pluginbuf */ + memset(pluginbuf + readsize, 0, plugin_size - readsize); #endif plugin_loaded = true; diff --git a/apps/plugins/lib/overlay.c b/apps/plugins/lib/overlay.c index 31c2b00f91..91f08e23f0 100755 --- a/apps/plugins/lib/overlay.c +++ b/apps/plugins/lib/overlay.c @@ -85,7 +85,6 @@ enum plugin_status run_overlay(struct plugin_api* rb, void* parameter, rb->splash(2*HZ, true, "%s overlay doesn't fit into memory.", name); return PLUGIN_ERROR; } - rb->memset(header.load_addr, 0, header.end_addr - header.load_addr); fd = rb->open(filename, O_RDONLY); if (fd < 0) @@ -101,6 +100,10 @@ enum plugin_status run_overlay(struct plugin_api* rb, void* parameter, rb->splash(2*HZ, true, "Reading %s overlay failed.", name); return PLUGIN_ERROR; } + /* Zero out bss area */ + rb->memset(header.load_addr + readsize, 0, + header.end_addr - (header.load_addr + readsize)); + return header.entry_point(rb, parameter); } #endif
