Again on the Mares Smart Apnea topic.
I think I have found a problem on the current SW implementation and I need
some advice. Sorry for the long message.
I have dumped my DC logbook, and some cross checking between the code and
the expected results from the mares SW.
I think I have found some problem in the code.
In the function "mares_iconhd_extract_dives" it seems to me that the code
points to the very end of the buffer, then it starts crawling back to the
beginning of the last immersion:
offset = layout->rb_profile_end - layout->rb_profile_begin;
unsigned int nbytes = 4 + headersize + nsamples * samplesize;
...
// Move to the start of the dive.
offset -= nbytes;
...but it seems that on the Smart Apnea there is not a constant samplesize:
one immersion is a variable length (nsamples) sequence of dives , each one
having one header (dive time, surface time, temperature, ...) and a stream
of "dive time" depth measurements.
If this is true, the current approach can't work, as long as it is no
longer possible to compute "nbytes".
Am I wrong?
Is there any reason to start from the end and not from the beginning (the
"end of profile ring buffer" eop) and then move forward? I am getting
familiar with the memory layout of the DC but still have many many doubts
about the library code and architecture.
Any help would be very appreciated. I can provide the annotated dump, but I
am not sure what the mailing list netiquette says about big attachments.
Thank you in advance
Giorgio
