Tytera MD380 firmware experiments

Introduction

The code here is currently based on work from Pat Hickey, taken from https://github.com/pchickey/md380-re.

Goal: I want to write my own firmware for the MD380, similar to the md380-re project. If I’m successful, I actually want to be able to run this firmware :-) But don’t hold you breath: most software projects on GitHub/BitBucket/etc are abandonware (e.g. md380-re), so why should this project should have a better future?!?!

To get my feet wet a bit, i first want to understand the Tytera recovery bootloader, µC/OS and RTOS a bit.

Note 1: the schematics is known to be not correct, so take the information here with caution. Processor pins that I haven’t verified are still in parentheses. I’ll use the disassembly of the bootloader, firmware, the applets in the md380tools project or information from the GPIO alternate function registers for this, but so far I’m quite at the beginning …

Note 2: the `CS8x0: blah’ texts denote the signal description from the CS 8x0 Service manual. They might be wrong or misleading, especially the active high/low notations. But they give an additional hint …

Radare and the boot loader

Get radare

$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/radare/radare2

(Re)Compile radare

cd radare
git clean -fdx
git pull
sys/build.sh `pwd`/dist
make symstall

I use a little helper script …

#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=
for _FILE in /usr/src/radare2/libr/*/libr_*.so; do
	_DIR=$(dirname "$_FILE")
	if [ -z "$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ]; then
		LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$_DIR"
	else
		LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$_DIR"
	fi
done
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

_FILE="$(basename $0)"
test "$_FILE" = "r2" && _FILE="radare2"

/usr/src/radare2/binr/$_FILE/$_FILE $*

… that I link to ”~/bin/r2”, ”~/bin/r2pm” and so on. That way I can have the always the newest radare from git and still don’t pollute my ”/usr” or ”/usr/local” with it.

Use radare

A dissambly subproject for the bootloader is in the subdirectory ”disasm/”:

cd disasm
./disasm_boot.sh

Some commands that I use interactively in Radare2:

s nseek around
/v 0xe000ed08search for data e000ed08
/x 08ed00e0:ffff0000search for data e000xxxx
pd 10 @ hit1_0show code around address
afanalyze function
afranalyze function recursively
aa*analzye all “flags” starting with sym.* and “entry0”
aac(slow) analyze all function calls
f~fcnlist functions that are still unnamed
Venter visual mode, pP there to change display mode

There are also a bunch of commands in the ”*.r” files which I don’t usually use interactively. Just look there directly.
