00:02 fromloper sorry
00:03 ben_vulpes fleanode, not anyone here
00:03 ben_vulpes freenode i mean
00:03 asciilifeform fromloper: your probe works
00:03 asciilifeform you may have to update gcc though
00:04 asciilifeform ( you need the one from 2014 , no earlier )
00:04 fromloper If I run sage_pill again, it seems to show the old CRCs and lets me update again?
00:05 asciilifeform unplug the probe and plug back in
00:05 asciilifeform what fw ver was on it before you ran 1st time ?
00:07 asciilifeform fromloper: also please do as ben_vulpes described, and paste the barf in the paster
00:07 fromloper http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/4EL9f/?raw=true for gdb
00:07 fromloper (and gcc)
00:08 asciilifeform you want 7.8 or above
00:10 fromloper One moment.. seeing if I can scrollback that far
00:11 fromloper Spew for current version: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/umk7h/?raw=true
00:12 asciilifeform is this from the first run ?
00:14 fromloper Looks like the original has scrolled off, so I don't know
00:14 fromloper No, rerun
00:14 asciilifeform anyway this is proper
00:14 asciilifeform 'old' is the fw image
00:15 asciilifeform it gets patched to match the hardware id of your box
00:15 asciilifeform you have a cured probe, enjoy
00:15 asciilifeform update your gdb and follow the examples on my www.
00:16 fromloper Thank so much. Do you know if there is a bypass for the EDK?
00:16 asciilifeform ( sagepill.py always breaks off, because the probe resets!! )
00:17 asciilifeform probably i ought to add this to the article.
00:17 fromloper Should the probes normal startup status be blinking?
00:17 asciilifeform yes
00:17 asciilifeform as for edk, it is garbage and i never use it, so i have nfi
00:17 asciilifeform it's java liquishit
00:18 asciilifeform decompiles ok , though, so you can crack it without breaking a sweat if you felt like it.
00:19 asciilifeform i posted the raw command set, theoretically you can use entirely straight gdb for any conceivable use of the box.
00:20 fromloper Ahh just say the manual you posted, thanks. That was my main concern (power, etc) for the edk
00:20 fromloper Now to see if I can find a gdb that works ;-)
00:20 asciilifeform fromloper: out of curiosity, hiw didja find the pill, and for what do you use the probe??
00:21 asciilifeform *how
00:22 fromloper Found though google. My main use for the probe is to have a cheap x86 JTAG device for VMM development
00:22 asciilifeform which board are you using ?
00:22 fromloper The Gizmo Explorer that came with the probe. In theory it supports AMDs VMM extensions
00:22 asciilifeform it does.
00:23 mircea_popescu fromloper consider getting a proper name / registering your pgp key with deedbot while at it.
00:25 fromloper Also looking at trying to get a Skylake/Kabylake with DCI enabled (JTAG over USB) since that just requires a USB 3 debug cable. The Intel NUC's have a bios setting "Silicon Debug Feature" but although it sets the debug MSR, it doesn't appear to set the PCH register correctly, and the PCH register is locked by the time it gets out of BIOS.
00:25 asciilifeform funnily enough, #trilema is wuite likely world's largest sageprobe user group today
00:25 asciilifeform !!up fromloper
00:25 deedbot fromloper voiced for 30 minutes.
00:25 asciilifeform *quite
00:25 mircea_popescu well, at least as far as non-whispering/public
00:25 asciilifeform aha
00:26 mod6 sounds like what i'm tryin to get into
00:26 asciilifeform fromloper: intel is mostly a waste of time imho
00:27 fromloper There is a bug in Gigabyte's NUCs where they left DCI half enabled. Unfortuntly I bricked the one I had.
00:27 asciilifeform their debug isn't fully out of band, hostile os (e.g. winblows) can interfere
00:27 fromloper Because it had intel bootguard and didn't like my customized bios
00:27 mircea_popescu they actually brick the board ?!
00:27 asciilifeform fromloper: pull the chip and reflash
00:28 fromloper Yep, no recovery possible.
00:28 mircea_popescu that seems improbable. tried what he said ?
00:28 asciilifeform ( if it's soldered down, use a crocodile )
00:28 fromloper Chip was soldered on and it's within Amazon's 30 day so easier to return and get one without vPro
00:29 mircea_popescu ah i guess there's thart
00:29 asciilifeform even if they actually take back mutilated boards -- this promises to be slow
00:30 asciilifeform get a rom burner and crocodile clip like normal people
00:30 fromloper I tried seeing if I could reprogram it via a TL866a but VCC isn't wired for in system programming and I didn't want to cut the trace on a system I might need to return
00:30 asciilifeform usually works anyway
00:30 mircea_popescu you don't have to cut the trace do you ?
00:30 asciilifeform trick is: gotta power up the board
00:30 asciilifeform then chip is alive
00:31 asciilifeform forget the burner's vcc.
00:31 fromloper I powered it up, which got rid of the overcurrent error, but it couldn't read the chip. Maybe a bad clip and or the TL866a isn't up to the task. Kind of a novice at these things.
00:32 asciilifeform either bad clip, or you out it backwards.
00:32 asciilifeform *put
00:32 fromloper I tried both ways :-/
00:33 mircea_popescu lol
00:33 asciilifeform pro tip: don't buy board with soldered rom
00:34 asciilifeform and if for some peculiar reason you ~must~ -- pull it off and replace with socket
00:34 mircea_popescu they've been moving that way slowly but surely hm.
00:34 ben_vulpes forgive me but what is a vcc?
00:34 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: +
00:35 fromloper I believe USB DCI is only on their Skylake+ U-Series chips which are geared towards mobile and those tend to have soldered SOP8s since they tend to either be laptops or NUCs
00:36 fromloper The ideal will be if Intel fixes their BIOS, because then it would be a supported option on a mainstream system.
00:36 asciilifeform for the reason described earlier, i have 0 interest in intel's debug
00:36 mircea_popescu not like it got broken accidentally.
00:36 asciilifeform so cannot help there.
00:37 fromloper Do you avoid Intel all together then or have another recommendation for low level debug?
00:37 asciilifeform hardware ice is useful precisely because os has no say in whether it gets debugged
00:37 asciilifeform avoid intel
00:38 asciilifeform it won't work for your purpose. and the docs are very, very thin.
00:38 asciilifeform and full of disinfo.
00:38 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: aha ty
00:40 fromloper Ahh. Well no choice if I want to use intel's VMX instrutions but to use intel. Just trying to avoid having to spend $3000 for the standard ITP-XDP device and needing special expensive boards with an XDP port.
00:40 mircea_popescu what is his purpose ?
00:41 asciilifeform their soft is winblows-only, also
00:41 asciilifeform and why the fuck would you use intel-only opcodes.
00:43 mircea_popescu http://qntra.net/2017/05/usg-asset-gavin-andresen-pretends-to-meaningfully-inspect-your-random/#comment-95936 << am i thick or is the guy entirely ignoring the quote.
00:44 fromloper I have NDA access, so I have slightly better documentation (but still shit and incomplete). Business decision. Intel only because that's where 95% of the market is. Also easier to do security research on ME and AMT if you can step through, which needs JTAG as well.
00:44 mircea_popescu sigh.
00:44 asciilifeform fromloper: if you paid for the seekrit docs , ask ~them~ for support, not me.
00:45 asciilifeform i have 0 seekrit docs.
00:45 mircea_popescu but why ? he just wants to, and you seem to be free! and the market ended up 95% usg for entirely unrelated reasons.
00:45 fromloper NDA doesn't cost anything. You just need to be a company.
00:45 asciilifeform ( and come to think of it, dun recall being paid )
00:45 BingoBoingo seekrit docs just have more frustrating disinfo
00:45 mircea_popescu fromloper why'd you make any promises to those assholes ?
00:46 fromloper I'm not paid. It's my own startup. Other than the sage thing, wasn't specifically asking for help just discussing.
00:46 mircea_popescu myeah.
00:47 BingoBoingo Anyways, MOS 6502 does all the computing necessary for most purposes
00:47 fromloper mircea, because their public docs are shit and NDA just means I want share their secret shit. It's not a big deal to me.
00:47 mircea_popescu obviously.
00:47 fromloper *won't
00:48 BingoBoingo But you don't get the good seekrit shit
00:48 asciilifeform fromloper: and you wonder why the public tools are shit, and you're stuck with winblows idiocy ?
00:49 mircea_popescu hey, the miracles of reification.
00:49 fromloper I'm at an inital research stage at this point if it pans out they have a heavier NDA and you can buy the private tools. At this point I'm just doing proof of concept so I don't want to invest too much if it doesn't pan out.
00:50 asciilifeform humour my curiosity-- what's a 'heavier nda' ?
00:50 fromloper Their private debugger is $5k a year though.
00:51 asciilifeform if you like spending money, as it seems you do, why not buy arium's -- 35k/yr
00:51 mircea_popescu and it still doesn't work worth a shit.
00:52 fromloper They have a "restricted" level NDA which is above the normal. You need to acually talk to people about your project insead of just signing up a webform. I'll look at Arium / Lauterbauch / Intel PDT if I get past POC and find some investors ;-)
00:53 asciilifeform fromloper: and when intel steals your project, then what.
00:54 fromloper If I liked spending money I wouldn't be worrying about getting the $15 debug cable to work or an abandoned $200 probe.
00:54 mircea_popescu hey, maybe intel capital invests. acquihire cheaper for them than actually hiring and they've been doing all that song and dance about hiring in the us.
00:54 asciilifeform it so happens that the abandoned 200 box is the only one that works.
00:55 asciilifeform i.e. runs with plain gdb, and 0 winblows liquishitware and nda.
00:55 asciilifeform and isn't overruleable by microshit os.
00:55 asciilifeform !!up fromloper
00:55 deedbot fromloper voiced for 30 minutes.
00:57 fromloper Unfortuatly potential customers are most likely using Intel + Microsoft. Also in US we have Trump now. World sucks, but still need to live in it.
00:57 fromloper This is all really my attempt at having to avoid working for someone else again.
00:57 mircea_popescu how's it coming along ?
00:58 asciilifeform funnily enough i have an intel xdp probe and even one of their seekrit dev boxes (complete with 'not for sale' sticker)
00:58 asciilifeform but 0 software.
00:58 ben_vulpes in other reversing adventures: https://arxiv.org/abs/1704.07715
00:58 asciilifeform because of schmucks who all honoured their pact with hitler
00:58 asciilifeform and won't release docs.
00:59 asciilifeform so the amount of sympathy i have, is 0.
00:59 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes actually the time symmetry approach is very intelligent.
00:59 fromloper You can get a trial of System Studio which comes with System Debugger. System Debugger sucks, but the debug layer is there underneath in python and C#, so you have pretty direct access to JTAG if you want to RE it.
01:00 fromloper The ptsecurity guys did a talk on it.
01:00 asciilifeform fromloper: and driver for probe where ?

01:00 fromloper Driver comes with System Studio (which is free trial)
01:01 mircea_popescu https://github.com/hannorein/rebound << better link
01:01 asciilifeform fromloper: this ain't the xdp one
01:01 asciilifeform but the winblows-disableable usb3 debugger

01:03 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: have a homework. find me where to get new 68k outside of usa.
01:03 fromloper System Debugger supports the $3000 XDP-ITP, the $390 SVT CCA adapter, and the $15 USB debug cable.
01:03 asciilifeform fromloper: how about my $0 softwareless xdp
01:03 ben_vulpes then ofc remembered that 200,000 lines of cpp make up nasa's most important models and rolled my eyes at my own self

01:03 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes one day you'll get to read military ballistics software, have a lol.
01:03 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: What new. Debug to build aound the old ones.
01:04 mircea_popescu asciilifeform did you actually try the thing ?
01:04 fromloper This one? https://designintools.intel.com/product_p/itpxdp3brext.htm
01:04 asciilifeform nah, rectangular box
01:04 asciilifeform xdp 1.
01:05 BingoBoingo fromloper: Anyways prolly more money in debugging John Deere's firmware than Intel's
01:06 asciilifeform http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/~SMAAOxyoahSXzkX/s-l300.jpg
01:06 asciilifeform fromloper: it ^
01:06 fromloper I don't think the current version does anymore. All the FPGA images are XDP3 or XDP4. I know older versions of System Debugger had support for older XDPs. If you have a student email you can get System Studio for free and it has access to older versions which might support it.

01:08 fromloper I think the older ones had a shittier abstraction layer though. The python C# one is easy to reverse.
01:09 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: which thing ?
01:09 fromloper Bingo, my interest is more in security. Most people aren't that worried about their tractor being hacked.
01:09 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i'm preparing popcorn for when they finally unearth the pedophilia issue. so far swimming in the brackish water of imaginary problems that are only problems ot the problemizers.
01:09 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the "system debugger" bundled driver
01:10 fromloper Be back in a bit. Gotta reboot and see if I can find a GD that won't crash with the smartprobe.
01:10 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: my box came with no disk.
01:10 fromloper asciilifeform. Thanks again so much for your help and hard work on fixing the probe.
01:10 asciilifeform nor does intel's downloadable crippleware, support it
01:10 mircea_popescu yes. his idea is, and perhaps not without merit, that by getting the bundle he names you might be able to salvage a driver.
01:10 mircea_popescu either out of the box or with some minimal assembly at home.
01:11 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: this, tried. fail.
01:11 mircea_popescu ah, ok. that's what i was asking.
01:11 BingoBoingo fromloper: You'd be surprised. Many people want out of John Deere's rootkit so that they can fix their tractor cost less than $newtractor
01:12 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: back when i actually gave a shit, i looked for a copy of the relevant shitware. never found.
01:12 fromloper Bingo, I'm not saying there isn't a market, but it's not really where my interest is. The ideal is to find interest and market fit. If it was just about money I would just go work for google.
01:12 asciilifeform today i give ~0 shits re intel.
01:13 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i've long wanted to design a ~new~ 68k box.
01:13 asciilifeform with, say, 16 of'em
01:13 asciilifeform but -- 0 supply.
01:14 BingoBoingo pop them out of performas? Or did performas get expensive?
01:15 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: how many grid chips have you personally desoldered ?
01:15 asciilifeform hiw many worked after ?
01:15 asciilifeform what would you charge for this process ?
01:15 fromloper There are open source FPGA 68ks that are pretty small. You might be able to fit 16 on a relatively small one.
01:15 BingoBoingo none, I thought that's why god invented chinamen
01:16 asciilifeform fromloper: problem is, there ain't a usable fpga
01:16 asciilifeform all want shitware.
01:16 mircea_popescu what, reflow oven burns the chips ?

18:22 phf` oh i lie, i have a friend whose parents are an astrophysicist and a literature something or other phd. they have a hoard (but much smaller hoard than say an equivalent russian botanik family, where the house is nothing but books)
18:23 asciilifeform aha, i've been to professors' houses, typically very spartan, 1 b00k case at most.

19:19 phf` amusingly that was back when the left loved pim fortuyn, who was a homosexual and ran on a platform of transparent government through technology. he was also fiercely anti-muslim and anti-multiculralist.
19:21 phf` he was assassinated by a muslim, roughly the same time when another dutch, theo van gogh got knifed by a muslim for making anti-muslim short movie
19:25 phf` from where i stand, same people who supported pim fortuyn and theo van gogh, i.e. anarchists, leftists, etc. 15 years later are supporting multicultural europe and nodick values. etc.
